Get Me Married

Chapter 8: Father in-law’s tension

a better wife for my son, I just loved her. When I pulled away I turned to my husband who looked dumbstruck at the sight of Genesis. “That’s my husband…..” “Liam Chase, I know…” Good day sir” she said excitedly interrupting me. I turned to Liam and saw the way he suddenly looked dumbstruck. Liam got up from the couch, his eyes still on Genesis. I stared at the both of them and watched the way they reacted to each other. My husband tried to cover up his shock when he saw Genesis but I could tell something was wrong, something was different. And Genesis for the love of Christ did not quiver at the sight of the man who was feared by everyone. She stared at him straight in the eye and did not look away. “Are you ready to be a Chase?” he asked with his normal tone and her smile disappeared. “I think I am” she replied. “Being a Chase is not going to be the same as just being you. You have my name to uphold, are you ready for that?” he asked. Genesis looked away and bit her lips. She held her hands together and I could tell my husband was making her nervous. “I think I am” she replied again and that was not a good reply. Liam wasn’t the kind of man you could give such answers to. “Genesis Connor….this is not some boyfriend shit you do, this is a marriage to a chase..are you ready for it?” he repeated his question. Genesis still clutched her hands nervously, she was like a scared cat. “I think I am” again she gave another reply and I prayed fervently in my heart that Liam wouldn’t burst open in front of the Connor’s, she was to be married to
