The Lost Billionaire Luna Queen Revenge novel Chapter 2

"Hmm....Hmm, well, she just said that her father is the best," Ella blushed, her cheeks burning red as she spoke, She could feel Cory's gaze at her, and the fact that he was closer to her was not helping the matter at all.

"She must have forgotten to add that her mother is the kindest, caring, loving, and most beautiful woman in the whole universe, " Cory said softly, his lips dancing as he spoke.

"Cory, you don't have to sound so cheesy, " Ella scolded him with her shy face.

"Oh really! Ah ah ahh ahhh ahhh!" Cory laughed merrily, "Why are you so red, are you perhaps feeling heat? Or are my words naturally hot?" He asked, still laughing.

"Nay man, ain't you going to work today? " Ella asked, trying to change the topic.

Although Cory knew that she wanted to change the topic, he decided to play along with her.

"Am not going to work, I want to spend time with my new family, " he replied passionately. Although a sad look was in his eyes, he was quick to smile.

"Oh really, that is so nice of you. I hope you aren't expecting any visitors, probably your mother, sister, brother, or even friends?" Ella asked, She was worried because she didn't want to greet anyone, and she didn't want to be questioned either.

"Visitors? Mother? Sister? Friends? Hmmm, " Cory sighed, "Look here Ella, I don't have a mother, sister, brother, or even father, and neither do I have a friend," he replied harshly, his voice filled with anger, hatred, and regrets.

"Oh! " Ella sighed sadness in her eyes. "I thought I was your friend, but never mind, " she murmured with a sad tone, She turned to the little girl; baby Luna stared at her curiously, blinking her eyes, her mouth was also pouted.

Luna looked at her mother, On noticing her sad expression, she smiled broadly, and Ella also felt the urge to smile; it was a feeling she had no control over.

"Ella, I didn't mean it that way, You are my first and real friend, " Cory said, looking remorseful, his voice sounded sad, and his countenance was that of regret.

It was at that moment that the urge overpowered Ella, and she burst into laughter, holding her belly tightly as she laughed, Baby Luna also joined her in laughing.

Cory was surprised, as well as confused; "What is so funny? " he asked himself a rhetorical question.

Nonetheless, he joined them in laughing, not wanting to be left out.

The house was lively, as the family of three; father, mother, and daughter all laughed happily, forgetting all about their pains and troubles.

"You guys are my real family, " he spoke out after their laughter died down.

"You are also my family, I love you all, and I am glad to be a member of this small family, " Ella confessed Her voice was cracking as she spoke, and she was moved to tears.

"I love you more, I mean we love you more, " Cory assured her, and they both stared at each other passionately.

"I, I la la au, " baby Luna babbled, as she smiled at her parents, Her eyes glowed like the bright moon.

"Oh wow! " Cory exclaimed, As he stared at Baby Luna, his mouth was widely opened in shock.

"My baby girl's eyes are glowing! " Cory opened his mouth in shock.

"Hmm, well, I can't see it glowing, You are probably seeing things, " Ella said quickly, She was alert.
