Love from A to Z | Drabble Collection

Wild Card

The first time Leona met his father-in-law was a remarkable event.

Eric Venue, despite the image of a respectable veteran in the entertainment industry, actually was far caring and easy-going than Leona expected. It can be said he was a simple, humble man as well.

However, the attempt of the older man to be a cool father and to present friendly was through a campy act of over jealousy so uncharacteristic of him that Vil had to ask him to stop embarrassing himself. Fortunately he just laughed it off and present himself properly, inviting his son-in-law for a drink and to tell more about himself.

Eric, like Vil and Jack, valued ambition and effort to make objectives in life work. So, he didn't receive the information that Leona hadn't a strong will or a well-defined goal for the longest time. Not even the status as a royal amused him. But Eric was inclined to accept him and get to know better, since Leona was the one who was making his son happy.
