Damien POVNew York had always made more sense to me.There was something honest about the city.Everything moved quickly.People wanted things.People chased things.And nobody apologised for ambition.I stood near the floor-to-ceiling windows of my apartment-, looking down at the lights of Manhattan while the city stretched endlessly beneath me,.My jacket was discarded over the back of the sofa-, and the glass of whiskey in my hand had barely been touched,.I had been standing there for nearly twenty minutes,.Thinking.Not about work.Not about Hayes Global.Not even about the inheritance anymore.I was thinking about my future.More specifically, about the kind of woman I wanted beside me.The thought had been forming in my mind for some time now,.I simply hadn't allowed myself to say it aloud,.Not yet.Vanessa was not the answer.I knew that much.Whatever history existed between us, whatever attraction had once existed-, I wasn't going to marry her,.She wasn't the woman I wa

Sophia POVThe moment Lorenzo stepped inside the apartment, my mother completely forgot that she had planned to act calm and composed.Which, honestly, was very predictable.Because Isabella Rivera had never been someone who could hide her excitement when she welcomed someone into her home,."They are beautiful-," Mom said', gently touching the petals,. Mom said'."I thought you might like them. Also, I am early to help you guys with the prepping," Lorenzo replied with a smile. Mom looked at him with a slightly amused expression."You brought flowers, dessert, and yourself early enough to help us?" Mom asked. Mom said.Lorenzo laughed softly."I did not want to arrive empty-handed," Lorenzo explained. Lorenzo said.I smiled while watching the interaction.It was strange.A few months ago, Lorenzo was simply a name connected to business meetings and partnership discussions. A name which I had already forgotten. A powerful Italian businessman.Someone I only saw across conference tabl

Sophia POVFor the first time in a very long time-, I woke up feeling completely at peace,.Not the temporary kind of peace that came after finishing a difficult meeting or completing a stressful task,.A real kind of peace,.The kind where my mind was quiet before my eyes even opened,.I stayed still for a few moments-, staring at the ceiling while the soft morning sunlight slipped through the curtains and filled the bedroom with a warm golden glow,.Usually-, my mornings began with my phone,.A list of responsibilities that seemed to grow longer every day.But today was different.There was no rush.No pressure.No immediate need to become the version of myself that everyone expected me to be.I turned slightly and looked around the room.This apartment had once felt temporary.A place I was staying because life had brought me here,.London had once been a city where every street felt unfamiliar and every face belonged to a stranger,.But somewhere along the way-, things had changed

Sophia POVSaturday afternoons had slowly become my favorite part of the week'.Few years ago-, my weekends no longer meant catching up on assignments-, working double shifts at the café, or worrying about whether we had enough money until the end of the month'.Life had changed.But enough that I could finally spend an afternoon doing something as ordinary as shopping with Mama.London was unusually lively that day,.The summer sun painted the old buildings in warm gold while street musicians played cheerful melodies along Covent Garden'. Tourists wandered through the markets carrying colorful shopping bags-, children laughed while chasing pigeons across the square-, and the scent of freshly baked pastries mixed with roasted coffee drifted through the cool afternoon breeze,.Mama looked happier than I had seen her in years,.She stopped every few minutes to admire flower stalls-, handmade scarves-, antique decorations-, and little souvenir shops as though she wanted to remember ever

Sophia POVBy ten o'clock that morning...Hayes Global's London headquarters was already alive with movement.Employees hurried through the hallways carrying portfolios-, tablets and fabric samples while assistants moved between meeting rooms preparing presentations and checking schedules,.The entire executive floor buzzed with quiet conversations in English, Italian and French,.Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows,. London shimmered beneath a pale autumn sun,.The Thames reflected ribbons of silver while boats lazily drifted across the river,.I stood inside my office-, reading through the final presentation one last time before closing my tablet,.Today's meeting wasn't an ordinary one,.After nearly eight months of planning,...Hayes Global's European Division was officially partnering with Romano Group to launch our first sustainable luxury fashion line targeted toward Gen Z consumers across Europe.Months of market research. Supplier negotiations. Consumer behaviour studies. Su

Sophia POVLondon had changed with the seasons,.The vibrant greens of summer had slowly faded into warm shades of amber and crimson-, painting the streets in colours that somehow made the city feel softer,. Every morning, the crisp autumn breeze slipped through the slightly opened kitchen window-, carrying with it the comforting scent of rain and freshly baked bread from the bakery downstairs,.Six months ago...Everything about this city had felt unfamiliar.Today...It felt like home.Not because it had replaced New York.Or because it had erased my past.But because somewhere between quiet mornings, long walks along the Thames, yoga classes, and countless evenings spent learning how to be alone...I had found myself again.Well...A new version of myself.One that smiled a little more.Worried a little less.And carried a tiny heartbeat beneath her own.A gentle flutter against my stomach pulled me from my thoughts.I immediately placed both hands over the curve of my growing baby
