Se connecterSienna’s POV
I gripped my phone tighter, turning on the recording. Beside me, I knew Liam was also recording from a different angle. We were both focused on the small figure now standing in the front row of the stage.Soft music began to play. The children began singing in their innocent voices. I immediately looked for Noah, and there he was, singing with full enthusiasm, though his voice sometimes lagged behind by half a beat. His eyes occasionally glanced toward the audience, andLiam's POV “You already used those photos to get money.” “I can still use them again.” I glared at her angrily. “You won’t get anything from me if you keep threatening me.” “Really?” “Yes.” Wilona smiled. “Then perhaps I should try another way.” I immediately looked at her. “What way?” She put her phone back into her bag. “Talk to Sienna.” My heart seemed to stop for a moment. “Don’t involve my wife.” “Why?” Wilona looked at me calmly. “Doesn’t she have the right to know?” “There’s nothing she needs to know.” “Then give me a reason to stay silent.” I slowly shook my head. “You already got your money.” “But I still haven’t gotten what I really need.” “What is that?” Wilona gave me a faint smile before answering. “Certainty.” I let out a sigh. “You call that doing nothing?” Wilona sighed deeply. “I still need compensation.” I turned toward her quickly. “Compensation?” “Yes.” “For what now?” She lowered her head. “I feel like something is going to happen to me ev
Liam's POV Since the night of the party, I did all I could to keep away from Wilona. I even told my helper to change how her job was done.“From now on all of Wilona’s reports should be sent straight to her supervisor” I said.My helper seemed puzzled for a bit. “They don't have to come to the desk, Mr Liam”“No.”“Alright, sir.”I didn’t mind if my choice looked odd. I just wanted Wilona to stop having a reason to come near me.I didn’t want to look at her or talk to her. Most of all, I didn’t want her close to Sienna.Whenever I saw Wilona in the office hall, I would quickly search for another way. Even an elevator had turned into trouble.One morning, I was standing in front of the lift when the doors opened. Wilona was in there so I straight away made a hard grin.“Go ahead.”I let her go before I pressed the button for the next lift. O
Sienna's POV After Noah was gone, all those dreams began to feel like things I could never have again. The foundation slowly filled that empty space.That didn’t mean the children here could replace Noah, because no one could ever replace my son. However, their presence gave me a reason to get up every morning and offer something meaningful to the world.“Mrs. Sienna?”I came back to reality when the administrator called me again. “Yes?”“Are you alright?”I gave her a small smile. “I’m fine. Why?”“You seemed lost in thought.”“It’s nothing. I was just thinking about something.”She didn’t ask any further questions. I appreciated her attitude because not every memory needed to be explained to someone else to feel real.I then left the kitchen and walked toward the backyard. Several children were playing with a ball while two administrators watched them closely, and when one little boy saw me, he immediately ran toward me with an ex
Sienna's POV Since deciding to go on vacation to Hawaii with Liam, I had actually become even busier. It wasn’t because I was preparing my clothes or thinking about the places I wanted to visit.Quite the opposite. My mind was filled with thoughts about the foundation, and I couldn’t possibly leave for several days without making sure everything was in order. The foundation was not simply a place I visited to fill my free time.It has become a part of my life. Every child living there had a story, their own wounds, and their own fears.Most of them had come to this place after losing something they could never get back. Perhaps that was why I found it so difficult to leave them, even for just a few days.That morning, I arrived earlier than usual. The sun had barely risen high in the sky when my car entered the foundation’s courtyard, and several children playing outside immediately turned toward me.“Mom Sienna!”I smiled. Before I had even managed to s
Sienna's POV Liam swallowed. “I mean, I will.”Why he hesitated, I don’t know, but I was not going to prolong the conversation anymore. Maybe, I wanted to give us a chance to try again or, perhaps, I was afraid of the truth breaking our tenuous harmony.So, on that day, when we got back home, Liam immediately made me sit down in the living room saying that he needed to do something for me and did not allow me to enter the kitchen until he was done.“What are you doing?” I asked, sitting on the sofa.“It’s a surprise.”“Well, just make sure you won’t set our apartment on fire.”“I can hear you, Sienna!”Laughing, I lay down on the sofa and after some time I started feeling the wonderful smell of the food spreading all around the room.Closing my eyes for one second, I felt the warmth filling up my heart. But when Liam walked out from the kitchen, he was wearing an apron and looked absolutely serious.Seeing how messy his hair was and
Sienna's POV The days went by calmly. At a time, I started to see that our bond was slowly going back to the way it was before, even if not all the way.I can't say that all the worry in my heart had really gone away. Sometimes, when I saw Liam looking off into space for a long time or going quiet when his phone rang, my mind would still get filled with questions.But, I was trying. I really was trying to trust him and Liam looked like he was doing the same thing cause he was working hard to fix it all.Every couple of days, I would see fresh blooms in the home. At times they were red roses, at other times lilies, and at moments they were tiny flowers in gentle shades whose names I didn’t even know One morning, I stepped out of the room and saw a jar full of blooms on the eating table. I grinned.“Liam.”He sat close by, looking at something on his phone. "Huh?"“Where did these c
Sienna's POV My words made him giggle softly, though he quickly bent back down, busy stacking the blocks again. Pride shone on his little face, as if he wanted to prove to the world that he truly could be that strong.The nanny looked at me, nodding politely. “Don’t worry, Ma’am. Noah wi
Sienna's POV I remained stationary at my desk for an extended period, observing the numerous papers, scattered pens, and an unopened coffee cup that had only fainted on its coaster. The silence was a clear indication of the extended nights I had spent writing my story. The realization that m
Sienna's POV.I saw Liliana first. With her black blazer on, she was sitting in our favorite corner, appearing to be the most confident woman in any room. With a triumphant smile and slick hair, she had an elegant expression. Upon my arrival, she stood up and hugged me tightly.With exc
Liam's POV Slowly, I leaned toward Noah. With his eyes closed and breathing normally, the little red robot remained tightly gripped against his chest. My lips curled up with a small smile as I carefully unbuckled his seatbelt.The warmth in his body made it feel like I was embracing the
