Divorcee's Choice [Choice Series 3] {Completed}

Chapter 08

Amelia smiles as her eyes clashes with Gabriel from across the room, while she tries to be subtle that she has been seeking her husband every once a while, he was bluntly staring her way.

Moreover, every time their eyes meet she tries to smile at him in assurance while he glares at her way in anger, as this was not how he had planned their day would go.

Early that morning, Stan had showed up at their door seeking Amelia so she would drive with him to come meet her father but Gabriel was not having it.

Therefore, here they were at her father's house while she was sitting next to her father's side Gabriel was on the chair at the other side of the room.

"Will you not make any introductions honey?" Amelia's father asks which brings her attention back to her father who stares from her to Gabriel.

"Daddy, that's Gabriel my husband. Gabriel?" she calls as she stares at her husband who sighs before getting up from his seat and walks towards them.

"Mr. Storm, nice to see you, I am Gabriel Price" he nods a bit to the man who stares at him with suspicion.

"Finally you spare the time to make the visit? Don't you think you are four years late?" her father mocks him and his eyes narrows down at the man.

"Be glad I at the least showed up, and if I may correct you this was your and Pop's doing...

We all knew I had no interest in this deal between you two but I am trying to give it a shot. So, stop mocking me, you will not like when I start to mock you right back" he warns the man before they both glare at each other.

Mr. Storm smiles slightly before he starts to laugh and looks at his scared little girl.

"His grand father did warn me about his nature, I am glad to say I chose the right one for you...

And you Gabriel may I be at peace about my daughter's happiness in your hands?" he asks Gabriel once again who nods in return before taking his seat back.

"If it's not too much why don't you two stay for lunch, let the old man spend some more time with his daughter and son-in-law?" he requests and Amelia once again seeks for Gabriel who sighs rubbing his face.

"No wonder you are his best friend" He grumbles as he agrees to stay for the dinner.

"Your father, always plays the sick card right?" Gabriel asks as he walks out of his father-in-law's room holding Amelia's hand.

"I have never seen dad play any cards" she answer before giggling and he glares her way.

"Sorry, well he does not like when things do not go his way" she replies before they stop in front of a room and Amelia opens the door.

"My room" she whispers as Gabriel enters first and looks around.

"He is not the only one," he answers as he keeps looking around.

"Someone will call us when the lunch is ready," she states as she goes to sit on the bed.

"Okay" he answers quietly before turning to stare at his wife.

"Guess my wife likes everything simple huh?" he grins before he too lies on the bed pulling her in to his arms.

"Umm"

"Where are your uncle and aunt?" he asks as they just stay like that.

"I am sure he will join us for lunch, but I cannot say much about my aunt" she replies as she plays with the button of his shirt.
