"We-we didn't get married."
"He is joking." Ziana mumbled and glaring at Zayden, she muttered, "Right, Zayden?"
Zayden crossed his legs and leaned back on the couch, taking his own time to respond. And when Norah turned around, he just shrugged with a smile and sipped his tea.
"Right, Zayden?" She asked again with a stare that begged him to nod. But no, he couldn't lie to his mother-in-law.
"Well, I wish it hadn't been a joke." Norah mumbled and heartily laughed making Ziana frown.
"Who doesn't like a sweet son-in-law?" she praised and turned back to Zayden who smiled at her.
So he manipulated his mother too. Great! Ziana thought and sighed in frustration.
"But you still owe him a proper apology." Norah demanded staring at her daughter. Crossing her arms, she added, "You seriously embarrass me with your craziness sometimes."
