Chapter 146 - Adopting Anna!

"We are adopting Anna." Johnson said making everyone's jaw drop.

Samantha got up from the long couch looking at Johnson with her eyes wide. 

Johnson looked at Samantha and smiled wrapping her arms around her waist.

"Yes." Johnson said looking into Samantha's eyes. 

"You..." Carol cut off Samantha in mid-sentence with her shout.

"She calls your fiancee Mumma? You are telling you are Adopting? Can anyone explain what is going on here?" Carol shouted angrily.

Anna and Samantha flinched in his arms and took them close to his heart.

"Granny, I will explain to you everything. Please don't shout." Johnson said annoyedly as he grabbed Anna and Samantha tightly in his arms.

"Yes, Mom. Calm down." Robert said and Carol sighed.

"Fine." Carol replied.

Johnson looked at Anna and made her stand on her feet 

"Anna, I bought you chocolates. They are on the living room coffee table." Johnson said with a smile. 

"Really?" Anna asked excitedly.

"Yes, sweetie. Go. Go and get them." Johnson answered and Anna nodded running inside the house. 

"Granny, Anna is the orphan and lives in Samantha's orphanage." Johnson said to Carol.

"Then why she is calling her Mom?" Carol asked angrily.

"Because she is going to be our daughter soon. We liked Anna. So, I want to adopt her. So, I told her to call Samantha Mom." Johnson answered looking at Samantha and saw a confused face on Samantha.

"We both are going to adopt Anna as our daughter as soon as we get married." Johnson said looking at Samantha and her eyes widened in shock.

"Oh, Okay. You already took a decision. I can't change it even if I want too." Carol said and looked at Johnson.

"I don't have any problem with adopting Anna as your daughter but you both need some privacy after you both get married. You both should get settled with your marriage life and with a child it's impossible. How do you think  you guys can cope up with a child this early in your marriage?" Carol asked.

"Grandma, we will have enough privacy and we are going to adopt her after we return from our honeymoon. Anna is so innocent and pure-hearted. She deserves to have a happy life and I am ready to give that happy life to that innocent soul." Johnson answered looking into Samantha's eyes with a bright smile and he saw tears rolled down in her eyes.

"Okay. If you think, you can do this then I am no one to stop you. My blessing will ne always with you and your family." Carol said with a smile and kissed Johnson's and Samantha's forehead.

"Thank you for understanding." Johnson replied and Carol nodded her head with a smile.

"What do you guys say?" Johnson asked looking at Robert, Jessica, Liam, and Cassandra.

"We don't have any problem. Anna already became close to us. So, we are happy to accept her as our granddaughter." Robert answered with a smile as he and Jessica walked towards them and hugged Johnson and Samantha.

"Yes... We are so happy for you both. I can't wait for Anna to call me grandma." Jessica replied with a smile making Johnson chuckle. 

"Dad Liam and Mom Cassandra... What do you say?" Johnson asked with a smile.

Liam, Cassandra, and Alexi were shocked when she said, he is adopting Anna but are happy that he is adopting Anna making Samantha's wish coming true.

Liam and Cassandra walked towards them. They hugged Johnson, Samantha, and kissed their foreheads.

"We are happy." Cassandra said with a bright smile.

"Thank you." Liam said to Johnson.

"No, Dad. Don't thank me. I did nothing." Johnson replied with a smile.

"Mumma..." Anna said as she ran towards them.

"Slow..." Everyone said at a time and Anna stood there itself as it came as a big shout when everyone said a time.

Anna suddenly started crying out loud as she heard it as a big shout.

Johnson chuckled and he and Samantha walked towards Anna.

Johnson took Anna in her arms and kissed her forehead caressing her hair.

Samantha wiped Anna's tears away with a smile and they both tried to calm Anna down.

Cassandra looked at Liam and saw the tears in his eyes as he looked at Samantha, Johnson. 

"Liam." Cassandra called and Liam looked at Cassandra.

"Our daughter is going to marry soon." Liam said with a bright smile as a tear falls down from his eye.

A tear falls down from Cassandra's eyes too but they both wiped it.

"Yes." Cassandra replied with a bright smile looking at their daughter bright smile.

Liam wrapped his arm around Cassandra's waist and brought her close to his chest and she kept her head on his shoulder.

"Our daughters really have grown up really fast." Cassandra said as a tear fall down from her eye.

"Yes." Liam replied as he wiped his tear looking at Samantha.

"She will be happy now, Liam." Cassandra said making Liam smile brightly and he nodded his head at her wiping her tears away from her eye.

"She will." Liam replied kissing Cassandra's forehead and all these didn't go unnoticed by Alexi. 

Alexi walked towards them with tears rolling in her heart and wrapped her arms around them from the backside.

Liam, Cassandra looked at her and kissed her cheek lovingly.

Alexi smiled brightly at both of them and kissed their cheeks while Liam, Cassandra caressed her hair.

Alexi wrapped her arms around Liam arms and kept her head on his shoulder.

"She will leave us soon, Dad." Alexi said as a tear fall down from her eye and Liam, Cassandra looked at her as a tear fall down from her eye too.

"She should, Lexi." Liam replied as he wiped Alexi's tear away from her eye making his heart strong even though, his heart crying listening to her Alexi that Samantha will not be Liam's responsibility anymore and will not live with them anymore.

Cassandra's heart clutched as Alexi said that Samantha will leave them soon and that's true. No one cannot do anything because she is going to live with her husband. And at last, that's where her place to live... Forever!
