《A Mommy for Christmas》全部章節：第 61 章 - 第 70 章

Chapter 61: All I Want for ChristmasKathleen’s P.O.VI blinked open my eyes to the sunlight seeping in through the curtains, my mind groggily trying to register everything around me. And that was when my sleepy eyes landed on Arthur, sleeping next to me on my bed, his hand on my bare waist under the covers.Memories from last night flooded my mind, and I felt a blush creep up my cheeks as I remembered how we had embraced in the each other in the heat of passion, leaving me feeling extremely embarrassed in the light of day.It was a good thing that he was asleep, I thought to myself, as I gently removed his hand from my waist, trying to slip out of bed unnoticed, however, as the last vestiges of sleep left my mind, my eyes fell on his sleeping face, which looked so much younger and peaceful than it usually does, marred by worry lines and a frown.Moving forward slowly, I pressed a kiss to his forehead, making sure not to wake him up, before I slipped away, and quickly got ready in som

Chapter 63: Memories of Her Kathleen’s P.O.V I had a feeling that my presence would make things awkward, so I decided to head back to my room and find something to do while Arthur takes Hayley to meet her mother for the first time. However, as I turned to leave, Arthur’s voice stopped me from behind. "Aren't you coming?" "Arthur, Hayley is about to meet her mother for the first time.” I told him, trying to speak past the lump in my throat. “It’s better if I’m not there. She will…I mean, you guys will feel more comfortable if I’m not there.” "Miss Kathleen, I want you to see my mommy." Hayley said, walking towards me before she reached out to grasp my hand in hers. “Please…come with us?” I swallowed hard. Truth was, I didn’t want to look at Sophia’s image. I knew as soon as I did, I would start to compare myself to her and how unfit I am to even think about standing beside Arthur. I mean…Hayley was gorgeous, so I already knew that the woman who gave birth to her would be just as

Chapter 65: Broken Trust, Broken HeartsKathleen’s P.O.VI watched Arthur leave in a hurry, aware that something was not right. The announcement seemed to have startled and I didn't understand why.I expected him to be excited that his family had paid him a visit, after all, I didn’t even know he had a family until now, which was absurd because I should’ve guessed that just he didn’t live with them. But instead of excitement, he looked nervous, especially when he heard the name Savannah.I swallowed nervously, the first thought I had was…were they even going to like me? Did I even look presentable? What if his parents were extremely strict and conservative? What if they didn’t think I was fit enough to be with their son?After all, they’ve had Sophia as their daughter-in-law before. And it was hard to compete with someone who must have been so perfect.Feeling my anxiety kick in, I tiptoed after him to the living room, holding my breath as I listened to Arthur ask as to what they owne

Chapter 67: MisunderstandingsArthur’s P.O.VI slowly looked up at Savannah, a subtle look of annoyance passing between us. I had nothing against her. She was my best friend, after all. But the fact that she let my family drag her down here, to create a scene that would disrupt my plans, made me feel extremely irritated."Stop staring at her like that!" My mother scolded me with a chuckle. "You both get hitched first and then you can do whatever naughty things you want, behind closed doors."I immediately looked away. My mother thought I was looking at Savannah lustfully? That was laughable to say the least. Everyone else seemed to think the same as well, since they all burst out laughing, before the discussion about wedding preparations resumed. I felt disturbed.The way Kathleen had looked at me when my mother had asked who she was…it was still embedded in my mind. God, I needed to get out of here and find her. I needed to explain everything properly!"How about we a beach wedding i

Chapter 69: A Little IncidentKathleen P.O.V As I led Arthur’s mother, Georgina, and Savannah’s mother, Sarah, to the dining room, I could feel Arthur’s eyes on me, his piercing gaze almost drilling holes through my skull, but I kept moving forward, trying to keep my face neutral. Once we reached the dining room, Georgina turned to me with a warm smile."Kathleen, thank you so much for helping us, not just this but with Hayley," she said, raising her hand to place it gently on my shoulder. "We’re really grateful to have you here."Sarah nodded in agreement. "Yes, you’ve been wonderful. Hayley told us all about you.” She looked a little hesitant before she finally asked me what I had been dreading. “And…if it’s not too much work, we’d be so glad if you are able to help us plan the engagement party for Arthur and Savannah... I know it’s a lot of work, but we’re short on time."I forced myself to smile, though my heart felt heavy. "Of course. I’d be happy to help."I gripped the side of
