I tightened my grip around the steering wheel.For one second, I wanted to get out. I wanted to walk over there and tell him to stay the hell away from her.But I stopped myself.Ava wasn't mine anymore. I was the one who had ended things.So what right did I have?I watched Sebastian leave and Ava disappeared into the building.Yet I remained there.I couldn't explain why seeing her with him hurt this much.I started the engine.

Ava’s POVBy the time I finished work, I was already exhausted.I stepped out of Reynolds Holdings and immediately spotted Sebastian waiting beside his car.He smiled when he saw me.“Good evening, Ava.”“Good evening, Sebastian.”I walked toward him and got into the passenger seat.He got in after me, and soon the car pulled away from the company.I looked at him.“So, where are we going?”He glanced at me with a small smile.“To dinner.”“Dinner where?”“You'll see.”I raised an eyebrow.“That sounds suspicious.”He laughed.“I promise you, you'll like it.”I looked down at my clothes. I was wearing a simple pair of trousers and a blouse.Sebastian glanced at me too.“Actually, before we go to the restaurant, we're stopping at a shopping mall.”“Why?”“Because you need a dress.”I looked at him in confusion.“A dress?”“Yes. The restaurant we're going to is very exclusive. I don't think your current outfit is suitable.”I looked at myself again.“I think I'm dressed fine.”“You are,
Liam’s POVFor the first time in a while, breakfast at the Reynolds mansion felt almost normal.I sat at the head of the table, as usual. Diana sat by my righy, Margaret and Clara was seated across each other.Diana was happily eating her breakfast and talking about everything that had happened at school the previous day.I listened to her with a small smile.“Daddy, you're not listening again.”I looked at her.“I am.”“No, you're not.”Clara laughed, “She caught you.”I shook my head. “Fine. What was I supposed to be listening to?”Diana smiled. “I want to go somewhere this weekend.”“Where?”“The zoo.”I chuckled. “We'll see.”“You always say that.”“Because you always ask for something.”She giggled before returning to her food.For a few more minutes, the conversation remained light.Then Diana finished eating.“I’m done.”Margaret glanced at the time.“You'll be late for school.”Diana quickly stood from her chair. She came around to me and wrapped her arms around my neck.“Bye,
Ava's POVI stared at my phone long after the call ended.My hands felt cold.Dr. Miranda Kane.The same woman who had been there when I gave birth to Diana and Damien six years ago.I knew her.I remembered her face, her voice, the way she had spoken to me during the delivery. But I had never imagined that the doctor who helped bring my children into the world would one day use that same knowledge against me.My heart pounded.Then another message came in.I quickly looked down at my phone.If you tell anyone what I know, especially Liam, you will regret it. I have someone watching Damien. Don't make me hurt your son.My breath caught.No.I reread the message.Once. Twice.My hands began trembling.Damien.She was threatening Damien.I immediately thought of my son laughing, running around the house, asking endless questions, and calling me whenever he needed something.I couldn't let anything happen to him.I quickly typed a response.What do you want from me?The message showed as
The sun was bright when Damien and I reached the park. He held my hand until we stepped onto the grass, then he let go and ran ahead, full of energy. His laugh carried through the air as he darted toward the swings, then the slide, and then the sandbox. I kept my eyes on him, sitting down on a benc
Liam’s POVDinner was quiet at first. Diana pushed her fork around the plate, not really eating. I tried to lighten the mood, asking about school, her drawings, her favorite book. She gave small answers, distracted.Finally, she put the fork down and looked at me.“Daddy,” she said softly. “Can I a

Liam’s POVThe phone rang while I was at my desk, and for a second I considered ignoring it. I had told Ivan I didn’t want any calls, but when his voice came through the intercom, I knew something was wrong.“Sir,” he said, calm but firm. “It’s Dr. Miranda.
