Chapter 28

• ~Camila’s POV~
• I awoke early to make my way to the Grayston house. I informed Grandma that today I would be preparing lunch. I wanted to do something for them because they helped me get full custody of Liam. Of course, I didn’t tell them that I was going to be cooking as a result of what they had done for me beforehand. I got in my car and drove to the house with my son. I am an even prouder mother right now, and no one, not even the woman who gave birth to him, can change that. The only respect I have for Claudia is that she gave birth to my child. I will only respect her for that and that’s all. Liam is my baby, not hers. I’m not expecting her to love him; it’s obvious she doesn’t care about him at all. It is a plus in my books. Liam will always refer to me as his mother and I will continue to spoil him until he asks me to stop. Not that when he finally asks, I will stop. I will take care of him without fear of him being taken away from me. Liam is entirely mine. I’m willing to die for this little heaven of mine. Liam and I finally made it to my in-laws’ house. I needed to ensure that everything was in order because Liam had a game later today. I was about to watch my son compete in his first tournament since he began playing soccer. The good news is that my entire family is coming to watch him as well. I informed my father that I was now Liam’s mother and that I got full custody. Technically, Liam is now the Mendoza family’s first grandson and everyone is happy for me and Liam.
• I prepared and baked the needed dishes, then walked outside to set the table. As people began to come, I already laid everything out. I took a bath, changed into my sweatpants, and matched with Liam. We stepped outside and saw everyone, including Chris and Claudia, seated at the table. They were all dressed impeccably, as usual, I sat next to Liam, serving him lunch. Today, I promise, I am not prepared for any drama. This family is fraught with intrigue. Naturally, someone had to say something to irritate me.
