Mommy, Where Is Daddy? The Forsaken Daughter's Return novel Chapter 50

Looking at herself in front of the mirror of her vanity table, Samantha gasped and said, "I'm nervous."

She turned to Ethan and asked, "How do I look?"

"You look like... my wife," he said before smirking.

"Pfft! Ethan, please," she answered before studying her evening dress for the night.

Samantha wore a mint green spaghetti-strapped, cascading ruffled vintage dress that flowed down to her knees. Her beautiful shoulder blades and slender neck clearly flaunted thanks to the design of her wardrobe.

Ethan and Samantha, along with Diana, plus the kids, were going to leave for the Wright Family mansion, which was just a community away.

Samantha was apprehensive once more, as she was going to meet Ethan's grandparents for the first time.

Taking out a velvet box from his pocket, Ethan placed a simple, yet elegant looking gold necklace around her neck.

He bent down and pecked the side of her face and stated, "You look beautiful in everything. Don't be nervous. I'm sure my grandparents will like you."

Following the kiss on her cheek, Samantha teased, "Another day of this and I'll conclude you are crazy about me."

Samantha only meant to kid about his constant touch and pecks, but she heard him answer, "You can have that confidence."

She found herself flushing at his response. She sighed and thought he was extremely good at making her blush.

"Let's go. The kids are waiting," said Ethan.

It took only fifteen minutes for them to reach the Wright Family estate. It was a bigger mansion than the house they called their home.

They were greeted by Daniel and Amanda Wright, right at the driveway with Ethan's grandparents, settled behind them at the mansion doors.

Getting off the car, Amanda rushed to open the Maybach door and welcomed them, "Welcome! Welcome to our home!"

"Hi, grandma! You are so pretty! You are like me and Mommy!" Announced Kenzie with twinkling eyes.

"Aww, come here, sweetie. You are just so adorable," said Amanda while aiding Kenzie off the car.

Samantha was next to come out and Amanda pecked her on the cheek.

"So beautiful. No wonder my son is crazy about you," remarked Amanda.

"Thank you," Samantha answered shyly.

"Hi grandma," Kyle came out next and greeted, kissing Amanda on the cheek.

"And what about grandpa?" Daniel called from behind, raising his arms at the children.

"Grandpa!" The kids both ran in the direction of Daniel, giving him a sweet embrace.

"Ahh! The sweet feeling of having kids again," remarked Daniel while savoring the adorable hugs of Kenzie and Kyle.

"Ethan, go ahead and introduce your family to your grandparents," suggested Amanda with a smile.

Ethan had stepped out of the car last. He fixed his coat before making his way to his grandparents, holding Samantha's hand.

David and Amelia Wright were already in their late eighties. Although, in a wheelchair, they were both generally healthy considering their age. It was thanks to the family's lively practices that they remain vigor to this day.

"Grandma, grandpa. This is my family." Ethan guided Samantha by the waist, moving her in front of him. He introduced, "This is my wife, Samantha. You can call her Sam."

"Sam, this is grandfather David and grandmother Amelia," added Ethan, turning to Samantha.

Amelia had a huge grin on her face. She forced herself up from the chair, and it was automatic for Samantha to aid her in her steps.

"It's alright, dear. I can still walk and stand," said Amelia. She reached for Samantha's face and complimented, "So beautiful and your hair is so glossy. She is like a model on TV."

"Oh, but grandma, I am a chef," Samantha revealed.

"I heard!" Amelia gave a wider smile while maintaining to hold Samantha's face. She added, "A beautiful chef. A beautiful girl."

Amelia winked at Ethan and probed, "So Ethan, how did you trick this lady to become your wife? Haha!"

"Very funny, grandma," answered Ethan. "Do you not have faith in your own grandson?"

Sitting next to Amelia in this wheelchair, David Wright laughed thoroughly. He revealed, "oh, it's just that we have been betting back and forth when you will find a girl and we have already considered all the possibilities... including that you may not know how to woo a girl!"

After introducing Diana as part of their party, Daniel suggested, "Well, let's go and... have a joyous dinner."

As they all stepped into the mansion, Amanda took Samantha's hand and suggested to their group, "Everyone go ahead. I'm just going to show Samantha something really quick."

Amanda brought Samantha to their room, going up to the third level of the mansion, and let her sit in front of her dresser.

Samantha was unsure of what was going on, but she followed Ethan's mother either way.

Coming out of the bathroom, Amanda announced, "Here it is!"

She was holding a light-colored concealer, raising it with her hand, and it confused Samantha.

Amanda stood behind Samantha, looking at her in the mirror. Amanda smiled and gently moved her beautiful golden waves to the side and said, "you missed a spot."

To Samantha's shock, she really did miss a spot! There was one kiss mark left, just a little behind her neck!

"Oh, my God! I'm so ashamed!" Samantha covered her face with her palms, facing down.

Amanda chuckled and said, "Don't be. You are married! It's bound to happen! Even I used to call my husband a leech!"

As Ethan's mother applied a good amount of concealer on Samantha's neck, she added, "Although I'd have to say, I did not think my son was capable of this! Haha!"

"But then again, my son is a man, and mind you... men, in front of the woman they desire the most, they turn to become this unexpected beast in bed!" Amanda laughed as she revealed.

Only after covering Samantha's hickey did Amanda sit next to her and told, "But you know, our husband's weaknesses are our advantage!" She raised her hand and formed it into a fist and hinted, "We hold the power!"

"You can use Ethan's desire for you to get anything you want! Anything at all!" Amanda smirked before adding, "Soon you'll know what I mean."

While Samantha was stunned by her mother-in-law's proposal, she argued, "Umm... I don't know... Mother, Ethan seems to know my needs before I do. There seems to be nothing that I could ask from him."

"Oh, trust me. Along the way, there will be something that you will want that Ethan will not approve of. And you'll need to use their craving for you to get what you want!" Amanda leaned over to Samantha and winked. "Trust me, it's very effective."

It took seconds for Samantha to reply. She gulped and confirmed, "Is it now, Mother?"

Seeing a nod and a wide grin on her mother-in-law's face, Samantha awkwardly answered, "Thanks for the... advice."
