Chapter 84

“Uncle Asher and I will-,” I paused as the lump in my throat hindered me from saying more. I looked at Asher as he held my hand, his eyes still on Lux.

Everything seemed to be spinning as the beating of my heart became so loud – I almost thought they’d be able to hear it from a mile away. Lux was still looking at me with a confused face.

“Your mother and I – are getting married,” Asher continued where I left off as he sensed I wasn’t able to say more.

I nodded as I studied every muscle on Lux’s face – trying to see some sort of reaction from him.

Instead of a scowl or a smile, Lux smirked at us and started laughing as if something was tickling him. I looked over to Asher with a confused face, he only shrugged – quite as confused as I was.

“Lux? What’s wrong?” I was increasingly getting worried as he looked like he couldn’t stop laughing.
