Chapter 108
Annie on the other hand was surprised to find her congratulating her. “why are you congratulating me?” Annie ask with unsure gaze as she smiled.
“Because you deserve it! I never thought I could get to accept your daughter as my daughter in-law but… I gotta admit that she’s brave and came to realise that she’s the perfect woman for my daughter”. Annie doesn’t know if she should blush or not but she really feels happy hearing this compliment from her. At least she finally find her daughter worth and realized that the poor can actually mingle with the rich despite the difference in there.
“Thank you for raising Such a wonderful daughter like her because she reminds me how a daughter in-law suppose to be”.
“I’m really so happy hearing this from you! Does this means that my daughter is now quality to date your son?” Annie ask in suspense as she nodded her head.
“Yes please and it’s even possible for them to get married as well as long as they desire that from each other”.
“It’s a pleasure hearing This from you”. Annie uttered with a smile as Morgan took a deep breath and glared at her sadly.
“I know I have been rude to you and your family over some days now with my actions and I’m actually on my knees…” Annie didn’t let her finish her statement because she knows what she’s planning to do and neither did she allowed her to kneel down or even think of begging her.
Totally no! There was no way she would watch her going down on her knees to beg her whereas she was the one meant to do such thing. “please and please don’t! I forgive you and I’m sorry as well”. The two women embrace themselves in a big hug on separating their differences.

Zelda on the other hand couldn’t wait to get home. She couldn’t wait to share the Goodnews to her Mother who she knew will be so happy to hear it and she knew that their Life will change forever. Zelda was worried that Morgan might not accept her even though she had succeeded in creating a name for herself for being the First woman to ever win a cooking competition. At least people know her name for that and when they heard such name, she knew that respect will be brought to her and that what it’s means to secure a place in her future.
Even with Such little title at this point she Knew that whatever business or company she went to apply for a job they will most likely going to accept her because they knew that she will attract a lots of customer to them. Morgan called Catherina her daughter and let her know of her thoughts towards Brandon and Zelda as Catherina later revealed everything to them and even told her the date and times Brandon will be arriving in America.
Upon knowing This, Morgan decided to meet with Annie so they could have a meeting and think of a way they would surprised Their child Which will be coming home and with Catherina help, she told Brandon to go straight home that he has something important to tell the both of them immediately they arrive in America.
Everything was ready as the Gill Mansion was decorated into many design. Morgan Never fail to invite her business partners who came as well to surprise his son and daughter in law. Morgan sees this as an opportunity to honour his son and also an opportunity to tell Him that he can carry on his relationship with Zelda and he can even Marry her if he wish to.
Brandon couldn’t understand a single thing as he feels like something was off with everything. He just can’t understand why Catherina have told him to go straight home that there’s something important Which he needs to see. The two of them have tried thinking what the issues could be but they still couldn’t figure it out. And his only thought at the moment was that, it could be that his mother was fainting or she’s at the point of giving Him which he’s trying to remove Such negative thoughts from his mindset but it was hard for him to. And finally, they finally get to his father Mansion as he came down from the car rushing towards the compound only to see the sitting room decorated with flowers with a booming song.. what was happening? He thought as he couldn’t find anybody at the moment.
If he’s not mistaken nothing seems to be wrong in the sitting room except the flowers which was decorated there because everything seems to be in the right place if not, he would have assumed that they’ve finally turn their compound into an event ground.
“Are you sure we are in the right house?” Zelda questions him confuse as well as they check around and all of a sudden, they heard this trumpet sounds then turned back only to see his mother Morgan who was smiling at him. Soon enough everybody start coming out of their hidden place as Zelda mother and sister came out as well. Zelda was really so happy to see them at the moment as she couldn’t help but run to them and embrace them into a big hug.
“Mother what are you doing here?” Zelda questions with a smile all over her face as Annie hug her. “of course we are here to celebrate your victory! I’m aware of everything that happened and I’m really so proud of you my daughter”. Nothing was clear to them at the moment although they were happy that their mothers were finally behaving like friends but they don’t really know the Reason behind this at all.
Brandon was speechless as he glared at his mother who couldn’t uttered a words but continue staring at him. “I’m sorry”. Morgan uttered and put him inside a big hug not minding the gaze or awwwwn of people at the moment .
After disengaged from the hug, Morgan kneel down and brought out a box containing the two rings meant for husband and wife which he had brought for them.
“I know you probably hate me as a mother! I know you’re angry with me for everything I have done and how I tried to control you or tell you what to do not realizing that you’re a Man who needs to Make his choice at this rate. I just want you to know that I’m very sorry and guilty for all the pain I have made you pass through. I just want to let you know that from today Go, I won’t disturb you or try to tell you what to do! You’re free to make your decision from now my child and you’re free to marry or date any woman you want as long as you love them”.
“Really? Brandon ask on hearing her last statement as she nodded her head. “Yes my child! Take this ring and use it to engage any woman of your choice which I believe you love”. She could be here with us or not.
Catherina was so happy to see her mother Doing the right thing this time around. And of course Brandon didn’t hesitate to walk up to Zelda who was just blushing like a fool as he approached her.
“Would you marry me?”
