They arrived at the Valentines' villa.
The moment Eliza entered the door, Demarion rushed up to her.
The boy held a large bouquet of roses in his arms and said, "Congratulations, Mommy!"
Eliza received the bouquet and asked, "What are you congratulating me for?"
"Because you no longer need to be a stuntwoman! Braint and I are really happy for you!"
Demarion looked at her with a cheery smile. "Braint even made a drink especially for you!"
Eliza was touched. She squatted down to cup Demarion's face and kissed him gently. "Thank you."
The boy's face turned as red as a tomato.
He turned his face away abashedly. "I... I...
"I'll go upstairs to get Braint!"
With that, he pushed Eliza away and ran upstairs.
Eliza was amused by Demarion's antics. "Who knew that such a young child would be so shy!"
"That's an inherited trait," Beau commented as he took his coat off elegantly and handed it to a servant.
