Chapter 56

The morning sunshine seeped gently into the couple's room, and the curtains were flapped gently by the breeze. The couple were still tangled up in the sheets, and the room reeked of what might have transpired between them the other night.

Maurice stretched lazily as he looked at the woman beside him and a bright smile made its way to his lips and he could not peck her on the forehead. She looked so beautiful with her eyes closed, and Maurice knew she had gotten him smitten.

He was happy to know that he was the one who got married to the pretty woman…she was his wife…his wife and even the thought of that got him blushing.

He told her everything about him yesterday, and he hoped she could also tell him what was up with her too, but he didn't care if she did because he loved her regardless.

He felt Hadley stir in her sleep, and he knew she was waking up too. “Good morning,” Maurice greeted, and Hadley smiled brightly at him, squinting her eyes in the process.
