My Second Marriage with the Mafia Kingpin novel Chapter 525

Chapter 525: What If This Is All A Dream?

"Are you sure... it’s okay for you to sleep on the floor?"

Lying flat on her back, Ashley turned her head. All she saw was Liza lying on her side, smiling at her.

"Of course." Liza let out a light chuckle as she caressed Ashley’s cheek. "If anything, is it all right for you and Primo?"

I’m used to it, Ashley almost said.

Instead, she smiled and nodded before turning her head to the other side. Primo lay on her left, with Tommy beside him.

They had ended up on the floor for two reasons: the bed wasn’t big enough for five people, and they wanted to sleep together as a family for the first time. So, they moved the bed aside and chose to sleep on the floor instead.

Primo answered her with a smile, wrapping his arms around her and throwing one leg over hers.

"Don’t worry about us," Tommy remarked with a laugh. "Your mother and I don’t mind at all! Haha!"

Ashley’s eyes softened, and her smile widened.

"I still can’t believe it." Liza moved closer and wrapped an arm around her daughter. "It feels like a dream."

"Mhm." Ashley pursed her lips, her cheeks turning red. "I can’t believe it either."

Not long ago, she remembered telling Liza that she wished she were her daughter.

Who would have thought?

What a small world.

It made her wonder what would have happened if she hadn’t made one different choice when she first woke up in this lifetime. What if she hadn’t overheard those conversations in her previous life—about the soil, the ambush, and everything else?

But none of that was important anymore.

What mattered was that they were together now. It might have been a little late, but it still wasn’t too late for them to get to know one another.

"You should rest," Liza hummed, still stroking Ashley’s cheek.

Ashley nodded, letting her mother continue humming. She hugged Primo and gently patted his arm.

It was already late, and to be honest, she didn’t know how the day had passed so quickly. All she remembered was that none of them had left one another’s side the entire day unless they needed to use the bathroom.

Tommy kept his eyes on Primo, Ashley, and Liza.

It might have seemed strange for him to sleep beside them, considering his daughter was now an adult. Still, he felt blessed that Ashley wanted to sleep with them, as though she shared the same simple dream they did. After all, they had been robbed of the chance to be parents to their child.

Soon, Ashley and Primo fell asleep with smiles on their faces.

"You should sleep too, dear," Tommy whispered to his wife, who was still staring at them.

Liza’s smile widened as she shifted her gaze from Ashley to her husband. "I will," she said. "In a bit."

Her eyes returned to Ashley, and she caressed her daughter’s cheek with her fingertips.

"I just want to look at her a little longer," she whispered, her eyes filled with longing and affection. "Tom, our daughter is alive."

Tommy slowly sat up and nodded. "She is."

"I can’t believe it," Liza continued under her breath. "I’m so happy... but at the same time, I’m scared. What if this is all a dream?"

What if she fell asleep, only to awaken to a different reality?

Liza’s worries quieted when her husband reached out and took her hand. She lifted her gaze and found reassurance in his eyes.

Tommy didn’t say anything, but somehow, the look in his eyes gave her a sense of security.

Tears formed in the corners of her eyes, and she wiped them away with the back of her hand.
