My Evil Boy Toy

Chapter 71 - 71 - I Want To Marry Her

When I opened my eyes, I looked on the other side of the bed. I wanted to make sure that I'm not dreaming.

And there he is, sleeping quietly beside me. I turned to him and wrapped my arms to his waist, burying my face to his chest.

Last night, when I came out of the bathroom, Jayden was already asleep. I know he's exhausted and I could see in his eyes that he hasn't slept well lately so I didn't wake him up.

I felt his hand hugging me back and his lips kissing my head.

"Finally, we're together." He whispered.

I pressed my body to him to get closer, savoring the scent of him. I tilted my chin up to his face and smiled.

"Good morning love." I greeted him.

He pulled me closer to him before speaking.

"Good morning love. Ah I missed this." He answered.

We were in that position when a little voice spoke.

"Mommy, Daddy! Good morning!" Caden greeted us with a smile, joining us on the bed.

He was followed by two servants who were surprised to see Jayden. I forgot that their task was to serve me breakfast today since I asked them yesterday.

We stood up to sit on the bed and I saw the maids eyes were focused on the man beside me. 

When I looked at him, he was half naked. I picked up a pillow and gave it to him. He frowned and looked at me before realizing the purpose of the pillow. He smirked and gave me a peck on the lips.

I turned to the maids, blushing. I tried to compose myself and let out a soft growl so they could pay attention to me.

"Helena, Grace, this is Jayden, Caden's father." I said. The maids suddenly got embarrassed and bowed their heads.

"We apologize, your highness! We were shocked!" Helena murmured.

"It's fine. By the way, we'll be eating breakfast in the dining hall so you could take the food there and make sure to prepare an extra plate." I ordered.

The maids left as fast as they could but I saw Grace glanced at Jayden before leaving the room.

"Can you put on a shirt?" I nagged.

"What did I do?" He asked but with a wide grin on his face.

"Mommy, are you fighting with daddy?" Caden asked while sitting between me and Jayden.

Jayden leaned to him as if he was whispering but enough to be heard by me.

"Mom was jealous because the maids were looking at your daddy."

I slapped him on the shoulder but we laughed at it after. Then his face became serious, looking at me and Caden.

"I love you two. You and Caden are my treasure. I don't want to lose any of you again." He said. Caden smiled and hugged him tight.

I was about to say something when Helena came back and told us that breakfast is served. So we stood up and prepared ourselves.

The three of us happily went to the dining hall. Jayden was nervous to face grandpa and Kyle but I told him I will be by his side no matter what.

When we came in, they didn't seem surprised. I know everyone in town was talking about me. It could be that George told Kyle about it last night or the maids were talking about us when they saw us this morning.

Jayden stopped at the end of the table and bowed.

"Grandpa, big brother, I'm sorry for hurting Peggy, Caden and all of you. I'm stupid and I know I don't deserve Peggy but please give me another chance. I will do everything you ask to make it up for all the things I've done." He said with conviction in his voice.

I looked at grandpa and Kyle. My lips were tied but curved. My heart was beating so fast from restlessness and nervousness.

Grandpa took a deep breath and spoke.

"Jayden are you planning to marry my granddaughter?"

I was surprised he suddenly asked Jayden. In my heart I wanted to know his answer but I was so afraid to hear it. Until now, he didn't even say the word marriage. 

"G-Grandpa! Y-You don't need to -" I stuttered but Jayden cut me off by grabbing my hand.

Then he turned his head up and looked straight into grandpa's eyes.

"Yes. I want to marry her. Ever since we were in high school, it was my dream to marry her. I love her with all my heart. I can't live without her. The reason I came here is to apologize and ask for her hand in marriage. Please let me marry her! I want to spend the rest of my life with her and our son." He almost yelled then he bowed his head again.

My heart was jumping from happiness. The word I've been wanting to hear. I thought he would never ask me and that he just wanted to be lovers without signing any paper.

I felt my eyes were starting to be filled with tears again. I stared at grandpa and to Kyle again. I wanted to beg them to let us get married. I've been wanting it for a long time like Jayden.

"Margaret?" Grandpa was seriously and intensely looking at me.

"Y-Yes! Grandpa, I want to be with Jayden. Please, allow us to get married." I bowed my head as well to beg. 

My hand was still clasped with Jayden's and I could feel the sweat from his palm, a sign that he's nervous.

"And if we don't agree? What would you do?" It was Kyle who asked this time.

I straightened and stared at grandpa and Kyle again. This can't be. Why won't they allow us to get married? I've been waiting for this day and now they're making it so difficult for us.

"Grandpa, Kyle."

"Peg." Jayden called. He shook his head when I looked at him.

Now what? Is he going to give up just like that? He won't do anything so they would give their permission?

"I will never leave Flousia and will beg you everyday until you agree. I could just take Peggy and Caden away from here. We're at the right age, we don't really need your permission. But I know Peggy would want your blessing to our marriage and I want you and grandpa to be there as well. I know what I did in the past was wrong and I regret it. I want to marry her so I could show her how much I love her and make up with her for the rest of our lives." Jayden exclaimed.
