Chapter 252: Not The End
Tony picked up the paper he had written his victory speech. He was prepared to read the speech and knew everything word by word.
Marcella brought out the suit she prepared for him. Of course, she prepared the same suit for their boys. Tony had a blue silk tie with red eagle prints, while their sons had a red tie with blue eagle prints. She thought it would be too crass to match their sons with their father at such a formal party.
She thought their sons would grow tired of wearing the same outfit, but they loved wearing matching outfits. The little ones always get excited to match their big brothers. Their brothers were their heroes. Raphael couldn’t bother to think about silly issues like outfits and he wore whatever he was given. The eldest two would observe her reaction to wear what she wanted to wear. They believed their father when he said their mother had the best fashion sense in the family.
"Your hands are shaking," Marcella said as she fixed Tony’s tie. He couldn’t even stand straight and leaned on her shoulder with his hands and she felt his hands shaking.
"I did it, Birdie..." he said, his lips trembling. "I did what I promised you. You are the first lady..."
"You did," Marcella stood on her tiptoes and kissed his lips.
"What am I going to do next?" he said.
Marcella was surprised to hear him. She thought he had it all figured out. He was enthusiastic about doing every gruesome work and she thought that he did it all because he loved doing it all.
Turns out, he did everything as a stepping stone to his goal. He did everything so that one day he could become the president.
He must be overwhelmed now that he got what he wanted for a very long time.
