LOGINMax and Darin followed the manager upstairs. Gavin and Felicia made their way to a secluded room. She knew he couldn't take spicy cuisine, so she ordered some of the restaurant's greatest dishes, being careful to keep to softer flavors. She said, "Want something to drink?" Gavin smiled. "Obviously. How could I not? It's a lovely evening, and I have wonderful company. I must attempt something local. Felicia signaled for a bottle of vodka and said, "All right." Before departing, the server stated, "We'll have that right out." Gavin gave her a quick look. "When are you going to get a divorce from Max, Evelynn?"Felicia smiled gently. "The lawsuit hasn't even begun yet. I have no idea how long it will take. Gavin scowled. "Max isn't exactly Mr. Romance, but he's not totally uninterested in cute girls, based on what I know about him. "Felicia pursed her lips. "He's fine." Gavin became even more perplexed. Felicia shifted the topic since she didn't want to go into it. "What is the duration
Trey had been the ideal parent and spouse till Heather learned about his affair. He genuinely cherished her. He prioritized their pleasure by spoiling her and their daughter. He wouldn't even entertain the idea of divorce when she mentioned it. Even though Jeremy spent a lot of money hiring a top-notch legal team, the divorce continued for over two years. Heather ultimately achieved her goal. She took home two billion dollars after winning custody of her kid. She was truly free to live her life as she pleased now.Felicia remarked, "I just hope everything goes smoothly," in a quiet but firm manner. Greg returned home around five o'clock in the afternoon. Felicia was prepared to leave, having already changed. She stopped by the entrance and gave her brother a quick look. "Tonight, Sean is all yours. Mom ought to return shortly. Ava had made arrangements for a nurse to spend the night in the hospital keeping an eye on their father. Greg gave a nod. "I understand. Be careful when driving
Felicia briefly stayed at the hospital with her father, but she didn't stay long. She was kindly urged by Ava to go home and look after Sean. Felicia said, "Okay." She and Luke departed the hospital room. Luke suggested they go get something to eat together when her stomach reminded her that she still hadn't eaten lunch. Luke suggested, "Let's have dinner with Greg tonight," and they took a seat. Felicia gave a headshake. "I doubt I'll be able to tonight." "Have any other plans?" he inquired with an inquisitive expression.She chose to be truthful. "I still owe Gavin supper. I said I would give him a treat tonight. Luke raised his eyebrows. "Is Gavin in the city?" Luke had frequently visited Felicia throughout her five years in the United States. He had once encountered Gavin, who was obviously attracted to Felicia. With his sharp jawlines and effortless charisma, Gavin could easily pass for a movie star. Luke recalled experiencing an unexpected sense of jealously. Fearing that Felici
Anne's expression immediately brightened. "All right." Felicia bid her farewell, and Anne waved to her while continuing to smile as she climbed into the vehicle. Felicia watched as Anne's little form vanished into the distance as Luke moved away from the curb. She attempted to wipe away the tears that hurt her eyes and squeezed her chest. Luke looked over but said nothing. Felicia began to feel a little more in control once they left the Hawthorne estate. Luke finally spoke up at that point. "Are you still not prepared to reveal that you are Anne's mother?"Felicia exhaled deeply and fixed her gaze forward. "I simply can't. I don't even know how to initiate that discussion. She sensed Anne's strong desire for her and Max to be together. Anne had asked whether the three of them might share a room just last night. Anne would be overjoyed to learn the truth. Felicia really wanted to see Anne's grin and hear her refer to her as "Mom."However, she was unsure about how she would go with div
"Is Great Grandma ill?" Anne's face furrowed in concern. "Yes." Anne's lips were obviously damaged when she squeezed them together. Her thoughts kept returning to her great-grandmother even though she wanted to visit Evelynn. She looked over at Felicia. Can we go see Great-grandma together, Evelynn? Perhaps we might still visit your apartment once we see her? Tatiana gave Felicia a stern, cautionary glance. Felicia saw it immediately. She simply gave Anne a kind smile. "Obviously, my dear." Tatiana's expression clouded. "Yay!" Anne said, turning back to her grandmother. "So let's get in the car quickly. I'd like to see my great-grandmother. Tatiana had already smoothed down her expression by the time she turned to face her granddaughter once again.Felicia genuinely didn't want to go, but she couldn't put up with Tatiana's behavior. The vehicle arrived in front of the Hawthorne family's former estate around thirty minutes later. Tatiana took Anne's hand and went inside, saying, "Evely
The tension that was building between the other two went unnoticed by Anne. With optimism, Anne said, "Daddy, do you like it?" Max gave a shrug. "It could be improved." Felicia gripped her fork tightly, resisting the need to douse his arrogant face with the soup from her dish. As Anne gazed at her father, her eyes widened. "Daddy, you're supposed to say it's really yummy!" she said immediately. Max was quickly persuaded. "You're correct. It's quite delicious.Anne huffed a little. "You have to cook next time." At that moment, Felicia's phone was brought downstairs by the babysitter. It was in the bedroom where Felicia had left it. The nanny remarked, "Someone just called for you." Felicia picked up her phone and noticed that Gavin had left a message.Once more, the phone began to buzz. Felicia got to her feet and responded. "Gavin?" As Felicia walked out of the room, Anne observed her. Max gave her a shove. "Anne, please finish your breakfast." Anne returned her focus to her plate.Fel
The hospital room was filled with the sound of a gentle knock. "Come in," Jeremy yelled. Grady entered with a polite tone. "Mr. Milman. Evelynn." Grady was actually Jeremy's plant who had been watching Jett for years, despite everyone's assumption that he was one of Jett's staff. Although Jeremy ha
Without a doubt, Max was the one who ended the meeting. He already knew exactly what she was attempting to do. There was no chance his vacation to Autumn Ridge would be beneficial given how vindictive he could be. When Felicia took a while to respond, Anne's enthusiasm subsided. With a more cautiou
The room was still as the rain pattered softly on the glass. Time seemed to have slowed down, and everything inside seemed heavy and still. It took Max a long time to get up and go. Things had resumed by Tuesday. Max came back to his office after his morning meeting to find Isaac waiting with a pil
Heather requested that Felicia wait so she could take the charm with her because Felicia knew she was going to Autumn Ridge for work and their train timetables coincided. Felicia ended up standing by the station exit, looking at the throng and checking her phone. Before Heather texted to let me kno
