Chapter 51 I'm Not Your Sister

• Chapter: When a Mother Knows—Eleanor’s POV
• I watched Christian march away like a man on a mission, claiming he was going to sleep where his wife sleeps. Hah! Well, that shut Martha and me up real quick. I couldn’t help but glance at Martha, and without missing a beat, we both started clapping like a pair of old hens gossiping in church. I mean, really, if anyone had told me my son—my Christian Ricci—would be so defensive of his wife, I would’ve sworn they had lost their minds.
• Martha was the first to speak, her eyes wide like saucers, “Madam, did you hear that? He said, ‘I will sleep where my wife sleeps.’ Not ‘Claire,’ not anyone else, but his wife.”
