“Yes. After speaking with you this morning, I forwarded your resume to a few of my contacts, one of whom may have an opportunity available for you. He is a big brand as well, but I don't want to jinx it, so I will let him call you tomorrow." Ava's eyes gleamed with excitement, which mine mirrored as I thanked her.

Our meal arrived, and Noa awoke just as we finished eating. I picked him up from the stroller to put him in the baby seat so I could feed him, but Ava asked me to give him to her, so I did. She enjoyed feeding him.

I'd mentioned to her earlier that I needed some advice, so she asked what it was about. I told her about contacting Stein and shared a little bit about Logan, including how he had never wanted to be a part of Noa's life.

I then told her how worried I was that contacting Stein and attempting to get my inheritance would force me to return to France, which I was not looking forward to.

I obviously intended to stay away from Logan, but what if he was still lookin

    AUTHOR’S POVAT THE HOSPITALAugustine entered Katherine's room and noticed her opening her eyes, looking disoriented. “You’re up. How are you feeling?" he asked, sitting in the chair next to her bed."Better than a few hours ago. Where’s Ava?""She had to rush to the office, but she will be back soon.” He expression instantly changed to a frown at his response, most likely due to the late hour.“What time is it?" she asked, to which August replied it was 5:05 p.m. “She couldn't reschedule the meeting, only the time, so it's at six and-" August began to elaborate but was cut short when he noticed Katherine's eyes welling up with tears, leaving him wondering if it was because Ava was away."Hey, it's alright. Ava will be back soon. Everything will be OK," he assured her gently, reaching for her hand, realizing that the heart attack had her shaken. He didn't blame her; anyone would be terrified.But her response caused August to pause. "It will never be okay, August. She's going to hate

    AUTHOR’S POVAT AVA’S HOMEKathrine, Ava's mother, was in the living room, watching the midday news, when she heard screeching rubber. She quickly stood and dashed to the kitchen window to get a quick view of the driveway, and her eyes widened when she saw Ava exit her car.She dashed to the door, but just as Ava got there, there was another screech, and another car came to a halt before Camilo jumped out and ran after Ava.“Ava, what’s going on?” Katherine asked, alarmed, but Ava dashed past her, prompting Katherine to act on instinct as she raised her arms to block Camilo who attempted to follow Ava. “Wait! Just wait! What’s going on?”“I need to speak to Ava,” he replied hastily, then looked past her, shouting, “Baby, I’m sorry! Please hear me out!" He tried to move past Katherine again, but she stopped him."Calm yourself! Or I will have to ask you to leave. Ava came here to get away from you. And you do not get to chase her around the house."“I’m sorry, Mrs. K. I don’t mean any

    MERAI checked my phone for the umpteenth time since waking up in the morning, and there were no messages or missed calls. I was an anxious mess who could not even eat anything despite being hungry.I was hoping the guy Ava said would call had not changed his mind about hiring me. All of the places I had applied to had given me hope, only to take it away at the last minute, and the disappointments were becoming more difficult to swallow.“Alright, Mera. Just sit down before you drive yourself insane and give him a real reason not to hire you," I muttered to myself, walking over to the couch, but halted when I heard rushing footsteps coming up the staircase.Thinking it might be Fern, I grudgingly took a few steps toward the stairs, but my eyes widened when I saw Camilo. I ought to have known better than to believe Fern's word.“What are you doing here?” He looked up, and my heart stuttered seeing an intense emotion I couldn't decipher as his eyes met mine. But instead of an answer, h

    CAMILA “Stop it!" I squealed, giving Lorenzo a playful tap on the head. “I'm going to throw up on you!" He had me loaded onto his shoulder and was heading out of the kitchen. But my laughter was cut short by the sound of the front door shaking the walls before Camilo strode inside with a murderous look in his eyes. He charged directly at us, and Lorenzo set me down just in time to see Camilo land a startling blow to Lorenzo's face, followed by a vicious headbutt that left Lorenzo reeling backward in shock. “Are you crazy? What are you doing?!” I screamed, attempting to separate them. But Camilo pushed me aside, and I stumbled, nearly falling before catching myself. "Stop! Camilo! What are you doing?!” I screamed in complete bewilderment as they swung back and forth, now grappling on the ground as Lorenzo retaliated. The room descended into chaos as Camilo straddled Lorenzo and kept punching him in the face. “Camilo! Please, you’re hurting him!” Frantic and terrified, I att

    AVA“Hey, sweetheart. How are you feeling?” Mom asked, coming into my room. I couldn't continue with my day after meeting with Mera, and returned home because it was either that or breaking my promise to her and confronting Camila and that evil son of a bitch.Camilo had just called to see if he could send the driver to pick me up, as I was supposed to spend the night at his place, but I couldn't face him. He would see straight through me.I disagreed with what Mera was doing, but my hands were tied. And as for Camila, I had no words to express my disappointment in her. Camilo was right about her. She was a complete idiot when it came to Lorenzo."Ava?" my mother asked again, jolting me out of my reverie as she sat next to me and drew me into a hug.“I’m fine.”“Are you sure? You know I’m a good listener,” she said as we pulled back from the hug.“I know, Mom. I just… I don’t want to talk about it. Can you... hold me?”“Of course, honey. " I lay my head on her chest. But just then my
