The Kofflin Family

Love

The following day, Ellis took the kids to spend the time at the

penthouse, and | was meeting up with David tonight. | wore a long cream-white silk dress and heels. | let my hair cascade down my back and went downstairs.

‘Why are you looking like that when you're going to break up with him? ‘Vee asked.

‘| always look like this,’ | told her.

Now, you'll make it hard for him to let you go,’ she hissed.

‘I can’t help my good genes, Vee. Even if | was in jeans and a tee, I’d still look ravishing,’ | joked.

She sighed, feeling proud of herself. Like me, she loved elegance. As | walked down, my hair flowed softly.

David’s eyes grew wide when he saw me descend the stairs. He wearing black pants and a white shirt. He was a good-looking m David was still tongue-tied as he took in my appearance.

‘Marry me, now, please,” he said, pulling me closer to him.

He was about to kiss me, but | averted his lips, and they landed on my cheek. My actions surprised him a little, but he only smiled.

You look gorgeous, Love,” he caressed my cheek.

Thank you,” | answered. David was looking at me warmly.

Why did he look at me like that when | was about to break his heart? He will have nothing but anger for me soon.

I'm the luckiest and happiest man alive,” he beamed, quickly stealing

a kiss from me again.

Let's go,” | said. | didn’t want to say something about his

compliment.

David’s chauffeur opened the door to his Porsche car, and | entered. | didn’t know where we were going yet.

David asked me about the Charity gala, and | told him that it went

And you, how did your mother’s surgery go?” | asked.

My mother had a severe heart attack in the surgery room, but she’s recovering. We are trying to make her comfortable and happy,” he looked sad.

“|

I'm sorry. She'll be alright, I’m sure,” | told him.

I've been stressed lately. I’m happy you're here with me,” he said, kissing my hand. | swallowed. Oh, goddess. | was about to break up with him when he was going through such a hard time.

Don’t dare chicken out of breaking up with him,’ Vee warned. She seriously had no sympathy for him.

‘L won't,’ | inhaled

‘Good,’

| didn’t even realize when we pulled into a large driveway, and a

mansion came into view,

1

Where are we?” | asked.

‘My home. It is time you meet my family,” He said with a charming smile. The chauffeur opened the door and David descended from the car. | refused to step out. How could he do this to me? He took me to his home without informing me.

11

Why didn’t you tell me you were taking me to meet your family?” | asked, annoyed he pulled this one on me.

11

Would you have agreed?”

11

11

No, because | wanted a private dinner with you. To talk!” | couldn’t hide the annoyance in my voice.

I'm sorry, babe, but we are already here. We'll have time to talk later,

| reluctantly got out of the car, ignoring his extended hand. | was pis sed at him to even look at him.

The se rvants greeted us and escorted us inside. The Kofflin mansion was extravagant and impressive.

Once we entered the living area, there were a total of five people who got to their feet. Three were women and two men. | recognized the older man as Mr. Kenny Kofflin.

| met him in New York, but we didn’t talk.

Everyone was smiling gently at us. | smiled politely, even though | was angry at David inside for bringing me here unexpectedly. | would still be pleasant to his family.

David wrapped a hand around my waist, and | didn’t revolt against

him.

Everyone is this my girlfriend, Love Jane Chasia. Love this is my family,” He told me with a smile.

A petite woman was the first to come up to me. She pecked my cheek, seemingly happy to meet me.

Hi, Love, I’m Darlington Kofflin. It’s a pleasure to meet you,” she said in happiness. However, | could tell she wasn’t in good health. Mrs. Kofflin was weak.

Hello, Mrs. Kofflin,”

Oh no, dear, call me Darling or aunt. We are family now,” she said.

Darling turned to her husband, ” You must know my husband, Kenny Kofflin,”

| nodded, and Mr. Kofflin extended his hand to greet me with a warm

smile.

Welcome to our home, dear,”

And this is my young son, Ken. His sister is out of town, but you'll see her soon,” she said.

11

| greeted Ken, but he went for a hug.

‘Sister in law! It is finally good to see you. | was doubting your existence,” Ken chuckled, and his elder brother playfully glared at him.

Ken was younger than David. He was my age.

“And -” Before Darling could finish a word, an older woman

interrupted and slightly pushed her aside towards Mr. Kofflin. Sh tried to make it subtle, but | noticed. The two didn’t like each othe

Darling sneered, not impressed by this older woman.

‘This family has drama,’ Vee sang. | laughed. She low-key loved the

drama

‘I’m Nonna, David’s grandmother and the matriarch of this

household, and this is my wife, Didi,” Nonna said. Her partner came closer. She was way younger and beautiful, almost the same age as Darling. Didi extended her hand, and | shook it.

#1

It's nice to meet all of you,” | said.

We made small talk, and a server brought in wine. We were drinking

as we talked.

We later went to the dining room to eat.

Love, I’m so glad you’re in my son’s life. | was scared I’d die before seeing him bring a woman here,” Darling said with sadness, touching her chest. Vee groaned and rolled her eyes. a

“| heard you underwent surgery. | was sorry to hear that,” | said.

And thank you for the flowers. They were lovely,” she smiled.

How are you feeling now, Mom,” David asked.

I'l fully recover in a few months. The doctor said I’m still fragile and can’t be shocked,”

Or too excited,” Mr. Kenny added.

Noona and Didi sniggered,

The hyperbole is sickening,” Nonna rolled her eyes. Darling was about to flare when her husband held her hand, and she sighed. My health is delicate right now, so | won’t engage with you, mother,” she gritted her teeth.

Oh so-”

Enough, we have company. Let’s not scare her,” she gritted her teeth.

My time with the Kofflin was cordial. However, there was tension between Nonna and Didi against Darlington. It was kind of entertaining to watch them send jabs at each other. From what | gathered, Darlington and Didi have been best friends since high school. She married the Kofflin family at an early age, and Didi also wanted to be part of the affluent family, but there were no more men in the family, so she seduced Nonna after her husband died. They got married a few years ago.

Darlington was furious about their union and ended their friendship.

HNevertheless, she couldn’t escape her former best friend because, like her, she married into the family.

So devious, | like it,, Vee mused.

| was talking to Ken about his art as the servers passed around to give us drinks. David commanded everyone's attention. He went to me and inhaled, smiling.

What was he about to say?

Everyone, thank you for being here. As you know, Love is the woman of my dreams,” he said, warmly glancing at me.

We have to talk, please,” | whispered.

Just a minute, sweetheart,”

To my horror, he got on one knee and pulled out a diamond ring.

‘Love Chasia, you're the woman of my dreams and the one want to spend the rest of my life with. Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?” 2
