The door closed behind them with a sound, the sound of people who belonged somewhere going home.Michael and Diana said their goodbyes in the entrance hall. Diana hugged Lillian and told her the shop's new window display was the best it had looked.The door closed.Elena was already asleep. She had been asleep since seven, tired out from her birthday, which she had treated like a project and had seen through to the end.The kitchen was clean. Lillian had done most of the cleaning. Alex had done the rest. The cake plate was in the drying rack with some frosting stuck to it, which Lillian would clean tomorrow. The good plates were back on the shelf. The kitchen had returned to its state.Lillian and Alex stood at the window.It had happened without planning. Lillian had come to refill her water glass. A

Chapter: Chapter 159Michael had been with Diana for three months before he told anyone.the man who had attended dozens of meetings without announcing his presence, who had spent fifteen years being the person in the room that other people forgot to account for. He processed things before he reported them, which meant that by the time he mentioned Diana’s name to Alex, the situation had already passed through several stages of development that Alex had not been informed of.“We’re together,” Michael said. As if this were a simple logistical fact.Alex looked at him.“Diana,” Michael said. “Elena’s doctor. We’re, yes.”“I know who Diana is,” Alex said.“Right.” Michael appeared to be having an internal experience that his face was not fully accommodating. “I’m still slightly…I don’t know why I’m telling you this as if it requires explanation.”“Because you’ve never brought anyone anywhere,” Alex said. “In fifteen years.”Michael was quiet.“Bring her to dinner,” Alex said.Michael looked at him with the

Chapter: Chapter 158A letter from a law firm arrived on a Monday.It was from a law firm she had never heard of, addressed to Alex. She knew from the way he read it, standing at the kitchen counter and not moving for longer than necessary, that it was not mail.He did not say what it was. She did not ask. She had learned when he would tell her things and when she needed to ask, and this was something he would tell her when he was ready.He made three phone calls before eight-thirty. She heard the way he talked on the phone. The way a man talks to his lawyers is the tone of someone who's prepared for something and is taking care of it.He was in his study for most of Monday.On Tuesday and Wednesday, he was busy. In meetings, she was not part of conversations she understood were necessary. She took care of the shop. She fed Elena. She talked to Justin on the phone about his school project, which was coming up soon.She watched the house, where life was going on as usual even though something was happening

Chapter: Chapter 156Jessie came every Saturday.This had started three months after she got out of the facility. At first, it was a text on a Thursday asking if Saturday morning was alright. Jessie was careful with her words because she knew she was asking Lillian, not just assuming it was okay. Lillian said yes, and Jessie came.They did not talk about everything that Saturday. They talked about the coffee. Lillian made coffee, and she always had. Jessie always drank it without saying anything until that Saturday when she said, "Lil, this coffee is really bad."Something changed.Not everything changed, not all at once. Just enough for the morning to feel real instead of fake.They started a routine by the month. Lillian would get to Greys at seven-thirty to open up. Jessie would get there at eight. They would sit at the counter with the coffee for thirty minutes before the first customers came at eight-thirty.It was the two of them in the shop before it got busy.This was not like their friendship.

Chapter: Chapter 155It came on a Tuesday with the rest of the mail.Lillian was going through the mail at the kitchen counter as she does in the mornings. She was separating the bills into those that need attention and those that do not. She was doing this while keeping an eye on Elena, who was in her bouncer trying to figure out how much the tray attachment can hold.The postcard was at the bottom of the pile.Lillian picked it up.It was a card, the kind you buy at a beach. The front of the card had a picture of a place. Buildings made of terracotta on a hill with a kind of light that you only see in the south. Lillian turned it over.There was no return address on the postcard.The postmark said Portugal. Lillian looked at it for a moment. It said “Portugal”, which did not really tell her anything specific, but it gave her a general idea.There were four words written on the card. I found something.There was no name on the postcard.Lillian did not need a name.She stood at the kitchen counter. Read

They had been on the run and nobody knew where they both were. Amelia had been our responsibility. I stood in the window and stayed at the whole city in my black dress. I had been mourning all day.I wished I spend a lot of time with my father. I wish I fekt his presence in my life. After a while, Anna joined me and she held my hands gently. “Williams, your father was a good man. You shouldn't blame him for what happened. He was blindfolded. Please. Find a place in your heart to forgive him,” she spoke.She exhaled deeply and continued, “I also need you to forgive me Elena even though I knew that I shouldn't have gave you up but I couldn't give you the life that you needed. I wanted you to have everything in the world. I was dying in poverty. You were sick Elena. That was the only way I could restore your health,” she explained and tears rolled down her eyes.

Chapter: Chapter 192Elena’s POV:I knew that I could keep concealing the truth fromNicklaus. It had already been confirmed. Nicklaus had the right to know. This is the best time to let him know. Tears rolled down my eyes, and I was not able to control them. "Yes, Nicklaus, Jason is your son,” I confessed, my voice cracking hard. Nicklaus was stunned, and he looked at me deeply in the eyes. “Why? Why did you keep it away from me? After all these years,” he asked, tears streaming down his face. I crossed my arms across my chest and sniffed, “Well, yes. I had to protect my son. I had to protect you from people like Sarah. You abandoned me. What would you have me for Nicklaus?” I spoke as he continued to sob.Tears rolled Nicklaus’s eyes, and he became emotional. He quickly found a spot to sit in so that he would catch his breath.“I had the right to know about it, Elena. Why did you keep such from me?” he asked.“I...” I began to stutter. I didn't know where to begin or what to say. I was in so much pa

Chapter: Chapter 191Nicklaus’s POV: My eyes widened, and I was stunned. That was when I knew that something was fishy. I checked the birthmark and mine, and it was exactly the same and in the same position.“This has got to be a joke,” I muttered silently. “Could it be? Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked, but I shook my head and tried to brush it off. My blood and his blood were compatible. He is 5 years old. The exact time Elena and I divorced.Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked myself the question repeatedly all night long. I didn't even get enough sleep. I remembered how he would smile at me. His eyes and his smile were similar to mine. His black curly hair. Noe, everything is beginning to make sense.If Jason is my child, why did Elena decide to keep it away from me? I kept wondering. I couldn't wait for the day to break so that I would confront Elena.Everything is beginning to reveal itself. I have to get to the root of this. I watched as Jason slept, and I made sure that he was

Chapter: Chapter 190Nicklaus lay on the hospital bed, but he was feeling uneasy about the whole situation. Anna saw him by the doorway as he struggled; she helped him out, “Nicklaus, you can't leave. You haven't fully recovered,”Nicklaus father arrived and was surprised to see Nicklaus leave. “I have to go help Elena. I want to be by her side,” Nicklaus spoke.“I am tired of being told what to do. Please get me out of here.”Mr. Coleman and the nurse agreed; they threw Nicklaus out of the hospital in a wheelchair. They got into the car, and after what felt like forever, they arrived at the penthouse.“Nicklaus walked in to see Zoey and Alex pacing around without Elena. He looked around, hoping to see her come out, but she didn't.“Where is Elena?”“She left with Sarah. I am still trying to track her location,” Alex said. Immediately, Nicklaus reached for one of my keys and rushed out of the penthouse. He reached for my car and zoomed off. He took his car tracker and tracked Sarah’s location.Alex, An

Chapter: Chapter 189I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly. I shook my head and struggled with him to leave my hand as I got out of bed. “No, I can't sit here while my son is taken away from me; I have to find him. I am sure Sarah took my child,” I shouted.Nicklaus and Sam walked up to me and said, "Please Elena. Let's get home and wait for the authorities. You have to trust me on this, I assure you. We will find your son,” Nicklaus spoke, and I became calm instantly.“How can I go home when my boy is missing?” I cried out.I held onto Nicklaus, and my head rested on his chest as I sobbed. “I want my boy,” I cried out.Nicklaus stroked his hands through my hair. “He will be found; you have to trust me,” he spoke. “I don't want to go home. I want to wait here. I know Sarah will come back here,” I said. “It's fin
