KAYLA'S POV

"I have no plans of partaking in anything that belongs to you." Gabriel said.

Oh, wow.

Things were getting more heated than expected. Did Gabriel just outrightly reject grandpa's invitation to join the Pearson Group?

"Gabriel....." Jeffery began, grinding his teeth in obvious annoyance. "I think you should watch the way you....."

"You have no right, thinking anything of me." Gabriel sharply cut him off, a glare on his face.

I looked to my side to see an identical glare on Jeffery's face. Knowing how petty he could be, he wouldn't want to let Gabriel have the last say. He was going to speak back, and Gabriel would most likely respond as well.

"I have every right, because I oversea two companies under the Pearson Group! It is every business of mine."

"Gabriel, you're very much a part of this family, so why not? You should partake in what belongs to me. You're my son." Grandpa said, ignoring Jeffery's banter.

"Wow." Gabriel released a low chuckle. "It's funny. Because for ye

    GABRIEL'S POV "Aunt Nicola!!" Zoey yelled in excitement, the moment Nicola stepped in.Fucking hell.I looked at Kayla immediately, and the shock on her face was palpable, regardless of how quickly she had tried to mask it. I kept telling myself I was going to let her know that Nicola was in New York, but..."Good morning, Gabriel." Nicola greeted, and I turned to her, wearing a practiced smile."Good morning. It's... such a surprise having you here. Had no idea...""Aunt Bea called yesterday." She cut me off. "She asked if I've been checking on Zoey, and I... thought to do so today.""Oh." I muttered."I apologize for showing up at your office without prior notice. But I guess I'm lucky to have found Zoey here after all.""Yes, you are." Zoey grinned, making her way towards Nicola who had her arms open in invitation. They hugged each other, before Zoey quickly pulled away and looked Kayla's way."Aunt Nicola, have you met my friend? Her name is Kayla." Nicola turned towards Kayla

    KAYLA'S POV After the rather deep conversation I had with my mom that night, I headed back for my bedroom. On getting inside, my eyes fell on Zoey who was lying on the left side of my bed, curled into herself, her knees pulled up, her face half-buried in one of my pillows. Dramatically tiptoeing to the bed, I gently slipped underneath the sheets and laid flat on my back, looking at the ceilings as tears clogged my eyes. I had gotten the very answer I needed from my mom that night. She was never going to abandon me, or choose not to support me at any phase of my life, as long as my happiness was involved. Sleep teased me, but I tried my best to remain awake for as long as I needed, to pick my phone from the bed stand, type five words in my message box, and send it to Lisa.It read, 'Please prepare my divorce papers'.***************The soft morning light filtered through the open window, and my eyes slowly fluttered open. The first person my gaze fell on, was the little girl cudd

    KAYLA'S POV "Have I made a wrong decision by welcoming Joana into our home?"I wasn't expecting she'd ask that. I mean, mom had always been the one person who stood behind Joana, regardless of whatever the situation was."The way she spoke..." Mom trailed off, as though she found it hard to believe. "The resentment in her voice." "Mom..."“I’ve spent years asking everyone to be patient with Joana." She cut me off. "To understand her. To excuse her sharp edges.” She paused. “Tonight, I realized I may have been wrong.”My throat tightened. “Mom…”“I saw it.” She continued. “Not just in her words, but the way she looked at you. That wasn’t anger born from confusion.” Her voice dropped. “That was something older. Something she’s been carrying. Pure, deep seated, resentment. Something I turned a blind eye to!”I stayed silent, letting her speak.“For a long time, I told myself love could fix anything.” She said, tearing up now. “That if I gave her just enough, it would balance out whate

    KAYLA'S POVAfter Gabriel left, I ensured Zoey finished her meal despite the outcome of dinner, and then led her to my old bedroom.I inhaled the fresh scent as we walked in. The room wa tidy. Most probably, it always was. As though my mom was always expecting I'd come visiting.Now I felt bad, knowing I could count the number of times I had paid my parents a visit, since marrying Jeffery. "Welcome to my room, Zoey." I grinned."It's beautiful." She smiled in return, casually making her way to the bed like she'd been here before."How old are you, Zoey?" I found myself asking. "8 years in a few weeks." She replied."Oh wow. I hope you'd still be around when that time comes. Or would you rather spend it in Italy with your parents?"She gave a small frown at my question, and I smiled in amusement. "What now?""Don't get me wrong. I love my mamma and pappa, but I'd rather stay with Gabriel. Every time of the year." She added, making a warm feeling settle at the base of my belly."That

    GABRIEL'S POVAfter I left Uncle Luca's place, Leonardo called again, requesting that I met with his boss for a peaceful meeting, with hopes of calling a truce to this thing that was slowly developing into a full blown problem.Salvatore Mancini and his men had messed with my shipments once again. Even after the subtle warning I had asked Carlo to send them the last time.I was pissed, because they failed to understand that I wasn't always this patient. When it came to my mafia dealings, New York was indeed a new territory, and I was only trying my best to not start with war here.I put a call across to Carlo, and he picked on a single ring."Don.""Leonardo is seeking a truce." I replied, cutting straight to the chase. "He wants me to meet with his boss.""I'm ready on whatever command, Don.""Prepare a few men, and meet me at the address I'd forward to you.""On it."With that, the call ended.About half an hour later, my car wheeled into the old riverside warehouse in Brooklyn, Ca

    KAYLA'S POV When did Gabriel have a child? How did it happen? A lot of thoughts were running through my mind already, as mom looked at me in similar shock.Gabriel released a low chuckle in amusement some seconds later, shaking his head at her. "Stop it, Zoey.""Fine." She pouted. "He is my cousin."Cousin? "This is Aunt Beatrice's last kid. More like mine though." He shrugged. The place was still silent, until mom broke into laughter. "Did you just prank us?" Mom asked in disbelief as she laughed. Dad's boisterous one joined in, and soon the air felt lighter. Hell! She almost made me have a heart attack."Hello Zoey." I found myself saying. "My name is Kayla." I introduced."You're so beautiful." She giggled dreamily, making an effortless smile appear on my face. "Thank you. You're quite stunning yourself." "Zoey came in four days ago, and would be here with me for her holidays, before returning to Italy." Gabriel filled my parents in."Oh, that's lovely. I hope you'd bring he
