Remember me...

Chapter 19 "A very sweet mother-in-law"

Juliet and Terrence were done eating and they were doing the dishes. They were almost done. Juliet put water to boil on the stove for the tea.

- Annie's wedding is driving her nuts; it's good that Archie is taking her to the restaurant tonight.

- She wants everything to be perfect, said Terrence

- Well I'm happy ours was a little improvised...

- Me too, he said softly, but you didn't want to have a big wedding?

- Terrence, without the accident, Candy would've been unhappy without you, and you too for that matter...so a 15 minute wedding, without a big party, is the most beautiful thing in the world for me...and for you too. Am I right?

- Of course, you now know that marrying you was a miracle I never thought possible...

They finished the dishes and went to sit on the couch in the living room. She was in Terrence's arms.

- Susanna told you what happened with Candy...

- Yes...

- I wish I had a camera to capture Susanna's face when you told her you had no intention to give me back to her... and that you were not Candy!

- Candy was too good for her own good and you too for that matter!

- I was blinded by the sense of duty; I let Candy go. It was the most difficult thing, I ever had to do. Then, Susanna told me to go after her...but I refused...

- She knew that you would refuse, that's why she said it... it was to look good

- You think? You don't like her, do you?

- I know she saved your life, but I think she's unbearable! I think she manipulated the situation to separate you and Candy

There was a knock on the door. Terrence stood up, to open the door. He was surprised to see who was at the door.

- Mum! He said hugging her

- Good evening Terrence, said Eleonor

- Good evening, come in, please

- Thank you

Eleonor came in and found Juliet sitting in the living room. Juliet stood up when she saw the beautiful and elegant woman entering the room.

- Juliet, let me introduce you to my mother, Eleonor Baker...
