Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Chapter 133 - Sooner Or Later

"Your father may never understand as you cannot make someone understand a message that they are not ready to receive," Joseph added, he would try to get through to Martin later. Men sometimes needed to hear it from another man to understand.

April thought about it she had lost a lot, won, failed, cried, laughed, loved but she never folded. She wouldn\'t give up nor give in as she had done before.

She then looked at Joseph and added, "The more content I get the more that I realise that I don\'t want drama, conflict or stress. I want a cosy home, good food and to be surrounded by my loved ones. But I won\'t be complacent and let people away with things if they want to stir up trouble."

He looked at her gentle smile and said, "That\'s my granddaughter!" He gave her a kind smile in return.

He knew nothing hurts a good soul and a kind heart more than to live with people who can\'t understand it. Hi, wife\'s personality was like April, he saw his wife struggle and he didn\'t want April to have the same troubles.

The wind picked up and her hair blew in the breeze, feeling a chill she suggested, "Shall we go inside now?"

"Yes, let\'s go before you catch a cold. You youngsters never wear enough layers." Joseph complained.

April smiled and held Joseph\'s arm and they walked in the manor together. Before they left for a walk around the garden both grandpa Joseph and Dean had fussed over her so now she was wearing four layers.

As April helped Grandpa Joseph into the Manor he smiled and said, "You know you can stay here. Once you fix up the condominium you don\'t have to leave, you can sell the condo and make a profit but stay here and we can have family dinners and enjoy the lake and gardens together."

April leaned over to Grandpa Joseph and cuddled his arm, "That sounds lovely." April didnt want to say yes and she also didn\'t want to say no. She wasn\'t sure of the future, she knew she wanted Dean in it but also she didn\'t want to jinx herself and agree too early.

Joseph saw her comfort him and he didn\'t push the issue but he needed to say how he felt so she would know where she stood not only in this house but in his heart too.

"What are you up to, old man?" Dean appeared at the kitchen door and walked towards them both he took April\'s other arm.

With the two men ushering her inside she smiled. Here in this moment, she realised she had to allow this to work, you can\'t overthink the future you have to live and just enjoy the moment.

April wanted to fill Dean in on her conversation with her father and prepare him for later, "My dad phoned and Grandpa ended up speaking with him."

"He is coming to dinner this evening." Joseph gave Dean a look and Dean nodded.

April was of course aware of the silent communication and added, "I will make you guys some tea and then I will start dinner."

They all walked to the kitchen and the two men sat on the kitchen bar stools at the counter and watched as April made them some tea.

April\'s love language was nurturing and looking after others, even if it was as small as a drink or a meal she would provide it. The ones that were worth it she would always go above and beyond for, others she would never help again.

"So the in-laws are finally meeting." Dean glanced at April and then looked to his grandfather, "I see what you\'re doing and thank you for helping. I would have arranged this sooner or later."

"No time like the present, why put off today what you can do can get done." Joseph laughed and thanked April for the tea as she set it in front of him.

"It\'s fine, it would have happened, why not today," April added.

Dean smiled and took the tea she had made. He held in his joy like a puppy trying not to wag its tail.

"What?" April asked.

"Nothing beautiful." Dean then walked around the kitchen counter and pulled her small waist towards him and kissed her forehead.

April pushed Dean away and glanced at Grandpa Joseph, "What if Rachel shows up later?" She asked.

Dean smiled and waited for his grandfather\'s approach to the issue, his grandfather was always more diplomatic than he was.

"That is up to you, April. We can let them in and show them your empire and new home. Or we can leave them outside the gates and get the security team to kick them out." Grandpa wanted April to choose how they would go forward.

April wasn\'t sure what she wanted to do. Letting them in will only provoke them and make them jealous. April wanted them to see what they could never achieve in life but she also wanted to leave them outside the gates like the trash they are.

Confused, she looked to the two men for guidance.

Dean flicked her forehead lightly, "Don\'t overthink it."Dean then added, "It\'s your choice April."

"I will think about it while I cook dinner. Let them come." April smiled and began to take out ingredients. "Now both of you go."

"I will keep you company," Dean added.

"No you won\'t, get out." April playfully pushed Dean out of the kitchen.

"Hey, why does my grandfather get to stay?" Dean pouted and glanced back at April as her tiny figure pushed him out of the kitchen.

"Don\'t pout, go do some work." April gave up pushing him and left him just outside of the kitchen.

Dean pulled her back by her hand and pushed her against the wall.

"What are you?" April\'s words were blocked by Dean\'s lips as they crashed onto hers.. He held her hands above her head and she was left speechless by his gentle kiss but firm hands on her.
