Ch-230

Esther wanted to shut Reggie's mouth and drag him away from the place and remove the air of awkwardness.

Esther cleared her throat and said, "Reggie, That exercise shouldn't be seen by others. Wife and husband should be alone," Esther said.

"Oh… babies are made by doing an exercise. And it should not be seen by others. And this should be done by wife and husband. Okay, Mom! Reggie understood now," Reggie said.

Esther felt a black crow flew over her head as she looked at Reggie."Reggie… let's not talk about babymaking. Didn't you say grandma called us for something? Let's ask her," Esther said as he tried to divert the topic. But didn't know that she landed herself in the big pit.

"I want Reggie to stay with us for few days," Lia said.

"Nope! I want momma!" Reggie hugged Esther's thigh immediately.

"Reggie, don't you want to have a sibling? A sibling, who would walk around you and praise you saying bro is best? Your mother used to walk behind your uncle. Whenever she got bullied, he would punch their teeth out and get detained from school and college. And you know he is a hero for your mother," Lia said.

Reggie thought for a while. "Fine….I will accept a sibling. I want a sister. I saw my friends have sisters who would wait for them near the school gate. I don't mind having a sister," Reggie said. He tried to mimic his father's seriously thinking look face but he failed terribly. His look was too cute. Esther stifled her laugh at him. Esther wanted to say something against being Reggie here, but she knew she would be asked to shut up. She looked at Cyrus for her help. Cyrus noticed her look and understood her words.

"Mom, Let Reggie come with us. We don't want to trouble you." Cyrus said.

"There is no trouble with him being here. He is my grandson. I want to spend some time with him." Lia said.

"It's not that mom. He never lived staying apart from me," Cyrus said.

"Cyrus, that's why you should leave him here. He is still a kid. If he stays in different places he would get to know about different things and different people. He will stay here. And since he is getting homeschooled, let him stay here for a week. You as a married couple should have some alone time," Lia said pointing the facts too obviously.

Esther blushed at her mother's obvious remarks. Reggie stood silent as he pondered about something.

"Mom, Dad… Reggie is a big man now. Don't worry! I will be fine," the little man said.

"Reggie, don't you want to stay with momma and dadda?" Esther asked Reggie.

"I want mom and dad to make babies and give me a sister," Reggie said seriously that made Esther's lips twitched.

Whatever they say or speak, the topic was stopping at the baby-making thing. "Mom… Can you put a full stop to that topic," Esther said feeling exasperated.

"Esther! Shut up!" Lia chided.

"Reggie… Do you want to stay with grammie or mommy?" Lia asked softly.

Esther was dumbfounded. She was so harsh to her while she was so gentle towards Reggie. She doubted whether she was her daughter or not! What the fudge man!

"Reggie… You take your mom's room," she said to him.

"You and Cyrus would leave now. I don't want to see lipstick smudged faces and shirts," Lia said.

This way… our Legendary King of Basilisk and the Soon-to-be Queen of Kshatra were kicked out successfully.

They reached their car and started driving to their mansion. After they reached the mansion, Cyrus parked the car. He saw no one. He wondered where the servants. "I thought we won't be back tonight. So, informed butler to take their leave," Esther said to Cyrus clearing his doubts.

"Oh…" he replied.

They both decided to take a bath since they had a rough day. "You take bathe in the guest room," Esther said before running to their bedroom.

Esther placed her hand on her chest when she realized her heart was beating hard. God!! Being close to him was hard!

She went inside but was too shocked to see the scene infront of her. Esther didn't expect that her servants would be this good,

She asked them to arrange the setting she wanted. The room was filled with candles. In the middle of the room, there was a heart shape created by the candles. It has enough place for two people to stand. The bed has a heart shape filled with rose petals making it look so lovable. Esther decided to blow off the candles and remove the petals after she bathed.

"Such a waste…" she thought and left.

She went inside the bathroom and stripped herself naked. Esther filled the bathtub. She decided to fill the tub with rose petals. So… Without thinking for a thought, she went outside and picked few petals from the bed, and entered her bathroom. Esther filled the tub and added some essential oils. She soaked for a while. Many things happened today. They both got married, she met her parents and did many things.

Esther knew their relationship would change. Since… she confessed then he might try to be intimate with her. She needs to reject him. Esther thought of different scenarios to reject him. Finally, decided to go on with the flow. After taking a bath and wrapping a towel around her, Esther came out. She didn't notice Cyrus was here. She took a step forward and placed her hands on her clothes but she felt confused at the odd air in the room.

"I thought to remove the candles after I bathed. But now…. It feels weird," Esther muttered.

"Esther…." a voice called her softly. She heard this voice and also very familiar with soap.

She turned around to check who it was. The golden lights of the candles were reflecting on her pale skin making her look beautiful.
