Billionaire's Accidental Wife novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 I make my way through the busy airport with my luggage. It takes me a few minutes to adjust to the modern, big city kind of flow to things again. When I finally make it outside to the “pick -up” area, I spot my sister and Peter. She comes barging towards me and embraces me in an enormous hug. I drop my bags instantly and bury my face in her neck. I inhale the familiar scent of her perfume while tears fill my eyes.

“Who is the lucky guy!?”

“You know him.”

“Oh really now?” Chelsea teased as she held the little boy’s hands.

Her mouth went wide.

“What?!”

“How?”

Christie’s smile becomes even wider. “Well, the man is a big bear. And yes! We’ve set the date for January next year!”
