Chapter 123: Playing on Asher

Asher was pushed aside by Martha as she went ahead to pull Pepper up from the ground. He was dumbfounded and apprehensive.

 He was a man who loved being a step ahead but right this minute he was a step behind.

Martha adjusted Pepper's dress and she had a smile on her face.

"Are you hurt, darling?" She asked his son's wife.

"No. That was not the deal…" Pepper started to say but Martha interrupted her.

"I am sorry, I got carried away and I have always wanted to shove someone, so…I did" 

Pepper laughed "It was a nice shove for a first timer, Martha"

"Please, call me Mom. Wine?" Martha asked and grabbed her hand.

"Yes, please. I love wine!" Pepper followed her but Asher went ahead and blocked the door to stop them from going out.

"I am going to ask this one more time. What the hell is going on?!" Asher said with an exasperated look on his face.
