Stefan’s back had healed and was stronger than before a week later. His bond with Renee has strengthened rapidly as well. She didn’t mind spending more time with him, and they were kissing and touching each other like any other husband and wife.
Stefan was happy with their current status and treasured his time with her. The thrill of regaining what he had lost was the greatest gift God could have given him!
One morning, the sun was bright outside the window, and the birds were chirping as a breeze swept through the beige-colored drapes.
Renee lay in Stefan’s warm arms, refusing to move.
“It’s time for you to wake up, sleepy head.” His strong arms wrapped around her, and he tapped her nose softly as he murmured, “Today is a special day. I want to take you and the kids to celebrate.”
“Shh. It’s so warm here. I want to sleep.” She held him tightly, nuzzling his chest like a contented cat. She loved lying in his arms like this because it made her feel safe. She refused to leave this warm and comforting sanctuary after being alone for so long.
“Okay, you can continue sleeping then.” Stefan was coaxing her as if she was a baby, softly patting her back and looking at her with loving eyes.
She slept till noon.
It was peaceful upstairs but busy below in the hallway.
Timothy invited the Hunt family’s friends and relatives to a feast at the Hunt Residence to celebrate Renee and Stefan’s reconciliation. All who had been invited had arrived early in the morning with presents to congratulate the couple.
Timothy, Alexander, and the rest of the Hunt family’s men sat together while Francine and the other ladies conversed joyfully.
“It’s noon, Francine, but where are Stefan and Renee? Are they still working at the company?” Stefan’s aunt asked.
“No. They’re still asleep upstairs!” Francine drank her coffee and responded cheerfully.
Hearing this, the ladies were taken aback and frowned disapprovingly.
“What? I didn’t think your daughter-in-law was a slacker.”
“Exactly. Is she unaware of who she is? How could she not know such things as the mistress of the Hunt family?”
“I recall she used to stick to the rules. She would get up early to entertain guests whenever there was a family gathering. Now she’s keeping us waiting while she sleeps?”
“Exactly! Francine, show her your might so she will listen to you!”
Francine frowned as she heard the ladies chastising Renee. “Please stop talking so much – you’ll wake my son and daughter-in-law.”
The ladies were stunned when they heard this.
