Katherine squeezed Damien's hand and told him, "See? I told you she's coming."
His shoulders relaxed upon seeing his mother by the door. He couldn't understand why he was so relieved that she came. She hadn't been with him for many years and so this sudden anticipation of her being in important moments in his life was new to him.
He glanced at Katherine and kissed her cheek. "You're right. Give me a minute. I'll be right back." Damien got up from his seat and headed to the door.
The eyes of the guests followed him as he walked away from the main table and headed towards the doors that just opened. When he was near, Felix let go of Amelia's arm and stepped to the side. Then he joined Markus and Styles's table.
Amelia looked up and smiled at Damien, feeling a bit nervous, knowing that people were watching them at the moment. "I'm sorry we're late. We got stuck in traffic," she said.
