ログインLiam's POV
I was trying not to cry but it was really hard. I had to be strong for Sienna. If something bad had happened to her she needed me to be calm and think clearly.I took a few breaths to calm down my racing heart. The city outside my window was a blur. I did not notice anything around me.My only focus was on getting to Sienna as fast as I could. I had to see her with my eyes. Until I saw her I would not feel okay.I was prayingSienna'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
Liam's POV “I think you should see this, Mr. Liam.”Wilona showed me her gallery. When I saw the photo, I felt as if all of the blood drained from my body. In the photo, there was Wilona and I in a hotel room.It looked like I was sleeping, but Wilona was next to me. Our bodies were under the blanket, and I turned away right away.“Where did you take this from?”Wilona smiled at me. “I took it myself.”I glared at her fiercely. “You. Wasn’t that night an accident?”“I don’t know. But if you don’t fulfill my demand, Mr. Liam, then I’ll make sure this photo gets out.”I walked a little closer to her. “No way.”“Why?”Wilona gave me a cold smile. “Are you afraid of Sienna seeing it?”My chest was tight as I realized how much worse things could look like in the picture.Sienna would never know anything about what had actually happened between us on that day. She would only see a picture of Wilona and me in a hotel room.It would be en
Liam's POV That morning, when I got to work, my mind was totally messed up because from that time I had spent in the party, I could not get the thoughts off my mind about Wilona, especially what happened in that conversation with my wife.I did not know what she was up to but I knew for sure I had to do something to prevent her from getting near to my wife.Once I came out from the lift, my eyes fell on Wilona as she was walking with some documents in hand.“Wilona.”She paused. “Sir Liam?”I walked towards her but kept quiet as my hands snatched hers and dragged her to my office.“Sir.”“Go in.”Once we entered the room, I slammed the door and glared at her.“What do you mean by approaching Sienna that way yesterday?”Wilona just smiled. “Why?”“Don’t tell me you didn’t know.”“Aren’t you afraid of me, Mr. Liam?”I clenched my fists. “If I’ve already paid you, why are you still messing with my business?”Wilona shrugged.
Noah's POV The food showed up. It looked really great on the plate.Rachel said it looked nice. Steven started explaining what the restaurant is about. I was focused on cutting my steakThere was a rhythm to their conversation. They exchanged knowing glances. They made joke
Noah's POV It was about a simple realization. I wasn’t just curious about Rachel anymore. I was starting to truly want to be part of her world. Maybe, slowly, let her into mine too.The afternoon breeze blew gently, carrying the scent of the city mixed with the faint fragrance of Rachel’
Sienna's POV “I’m not starting anything,” I replied quickly.“You’re already planning strategies.”I turned and looked at him with an innocent expression that clearly wasn’t convincing.“I just want to know who my son is spending his first day in a new world with,” I said quietly
Noah's POV Rachel scoffed lightly. “Hey, I only took two wrong turns today.”“That’s a lot.”“For a campus this big? Not really.”We both smiled.The sky above campus darkened in the east while the remaining orange light lingered in the west. Other students passed around us,
