Chapter 53 CH 53: An Unexpected Invite

(Laura’s POV)

Calvin naturally treated me like his girlfriend. It was as if we were already together. The attention given to me by him was what I had always wanted from a boyfriend. He was gentle and paid full attention on my needs.

Everyone was watching us especially Vincent.

Calvin’s hand was holding my hand under the table, caressing my fingers gently. “I’m not going to let you down, Laura. I’m not Vincent, that’s for sure” he whispered and gave me a light kiss on my cheeks.

My brother Henry cleared his throat and started to get back my attention to him with meaningless conversation. I knew he was worried about me. But, I had assured him earlier that it was just part of my plan.

“You made it! Welcome, Rebecca” I heard Leroy’s wife saying to someone that had just entered the large dining hall arranged with rows of long tables.
