The Girl He Craves

Meredith’s pov

I place the phone down on the counter, my head a bit hazy.

“What’s wrong baby?” My husband walked into the kitchen and noticed my change of mood.

I looked over at him, still a bit confused by the conversation I just had with my father.

He noticed my confused and concerned stare and his brows knot as he approaches me. “That man called you, didn’t he?” He spat, coming closer and holding me.

I nod, looking at him. “He mentioned that our son has a fiance and a son. He also proposed to fly us out to surprise Aiden.” I voiced out, still a bit m*ffled by the whole situation.

Surely our son would have told us he had started his own little family?

Why were we just hearing about this now? Especially coming from my father?

A man known to not care about his blood more than money?

How does he know and I didn’t?

I sighed inwardly. Perhaps if I had been on the internet more, then maybe I would’ve stumbled upon the article and photo of my apparent grandson as father told me.

Grant and i were never into social media stuff and always

stayed clear of it.

This time around I suppose staying away from it wasn’t a

good thing. Strangers knew about my son being engaged and a father……before Grant and me.

Grant pulls away from me, looking down at me with even more confusion than I had plastered on my face.

“What?” He voiced out his confusion and took a step back as he scanned my face for any insincerity. When he finds none his brows furrowed even more.

“You’re joking?” He asked, looking at me perplexed.

I shook my head and stared at my phone. “I kid you not Grant, my father just called and told me that Aiden is a father and now a fiance. I’m still lost myself.”

Grant scratched his head and looked out the window, staring into nothing while I could see the gears in his head shift.
