Chương 238: Motto In Life

Ashton's POV

When Claire's family arrived, I wanted to take my wife and son out of the party since I knew my ex-fiancee's presence would do us no good, and I realized my dad was up to something.

When I looked at my wife, I could tell she was affected by Claire's presence, but she tried to hide her worries by smiling at me. And she gave me the encouragement that I needed.

"My love, I am your wife, and you are mine now; it would be okay if you will speak with her." She whispered, and I shook my head.

"There is nothing Claire and I should talk about, Meg; I will stay here by your side," I responded as I squeezed her hand.

"No, it would be harsh on her part; I knew she was one of your friends from the elite society, and I don't want her to think I am stopping you from greeting her." She said with a smile, but beneath her sweet smile, I could see uncertainties which is why I don't want to leave her.
