Eliza's POV

Philip ran into the house cheering and jumping around. We all looked at him confused but just ignored it.

"So Alexander what happened" I ask

"So um the police came and William shot one of them but they took him to prison and they are having an execution for him next week"

I raised an eyebrow

"No trial?"

"By surprise they have actually been looking for this man for months he's robbed a lot of stores apparently his mother has been struggling so he has been stealing for her" He explains

"Oh how do you have so much information on William"

"Um I wasn't meddling" He says trying to walk away

I grab his shirt and pull him back

"Alexander you have no right to meddle in a stranger's business" I pull him down making him look me in the eye

"Oh yes the stranger who killed my son and cheated on my daughter" He says standing back to his height

"Well since you know so much what day is the execution?"

"Next Tuesday"

"Well I'm going" I say heading to the kitchen

"No Elizabeth you are not not women should be at an execution!" Alex said following me

"That Man killed my son I have every right to be there and so does Angie"

"Yes I do" Angie said walking in

"ANGIE WILL NOT BE GOING!" He yelled

She sighed

"Ok father" she said as she walked out the kitchen

"Well I'm going and that's final" I say walking through the other door.

Alex's POV

I stand there giving myself a facepalm. You can't argue with women especially my wife.

"I'm going to see why Philip is so happy"

I walk up to his room and see him throwing papers all around excitingly. I guess that's one way to show your happiness. He see's me and he rolls his eyes and ignores me.

"Um hey Philip what happened?"

"Mr.Burr gave me his blessing!"

I wanna jump around too. I felt like I just won the lottery. My son is close to getting married.

"THAT'S AWESOME" I say while running over to squeeze him into a tight hug.

"THAT'S MY SON!" I yell with tears of joy coming down

"Uh thanks dad you can let go now"

I let go of him and we stare at each other. I always used to try and count his freckles when he was little and never finished cause there were so many of them.

"Um pa?"

"Oh um ok so here let me give you some advice"

He rolled his eyes and groaned and fell back onto his bed.

"Ok so-"

Philip's POV

"Bla bla bla bla bla bla"

This dude has been talking for hours about sex and how to get the right place to start a family and other stuff I already know.

"Philip are you listening"
I jumped up
