Mistaken Identity 83.
Avery’s POV "That night. The night you disappeared." Kelvin continued, drawing her attention back, "you said you were exhausted, but you stayed for hours just to talk to me. You always made time for me."Avery forced a small smile, though her mind was still spinning."What about... my family?" she asked cautiously.Kelvin's face sobered. "You didn’t have much. Your grandfather raised you. He passed away a few years before..." He paused, his throat working like the words physically pained him. "Before you disappeared."No parents. No siblings. Only a grandfather.Avery swallowed hard, her throat suddenly dry. The quiet hum of the café around her faded into the background as something inside her shifted, like the foundations of her identity were cracking under the weight of the truth.She'd always known she was missing something. But hearing it, confirming it like this... it still hit harder than she expected.She looked at Kelvin, really looked at him. There was something familiar abo

Avery’s POVKelvin nodded with a small smile. "Yeah. In the accounting department. You were one of the youngest to get promoted to senior analyst, I think. Your team always had good things to say about you." He took a sip of his coffee. "You were brilliant, Raina. Organized, sharp... always ahead of deadlines."Avery’s mind reeled.She hadn’t told Kelvin who she was currently with, so he didn’t know it was Asher Storm. And Asher had made it clear that he hadn’t known her, not really, until the night they met, the night that had changed everything. The night she couldn't even remember.But if Kelvin was telling the truth… She had worked at Storm Capitals? Asher's company. This was getting more complicated than she had thought.“I don’t remember that at all,” she murmured, more to herself than to him.Kelvin leaned forward, concern creasing his brow. “I know. This must be overwhelming for you. But yeah, that’s where you spent most of your time. You used to grumble about the long meetin

Avery's POVAsher pulled the car up to the curb outside the small café, the engine humming quietly as he shifted into park. Avery sat still, her eyes fixed on the building while her hands trembled slightly in her lap.It wasn’t fear holding her back, at least not the kind that made you run. From the moment she’d received the DNA results from Asher, she had made up her mind: she would chase the truth, no matter how painful or complicated it turned out to be. Regardless of what she found out.No, she wasn’t scared. She was anxious; uneasy about what she was going to uncover. Every time one mystery from her past unraveled, it seemed to drag up something deeper, darker, more tangled. The closer she got to the truth, the more it felt like she was walking into a storm without knowing what waited on the other side.And as much as she wanted the answers, as much as she needed them to piece her life back together, it was hard to face the weight of it all. Not just for herself—but for her boys

Avery’s POVShe sniffled, pressing her forehead to his chest. She was calming down, that was good. Maybe, somewhere within her heart, she had assumed that she was someone else.Silence fell between them again, thick and heavy.“I don’t understand,” she whispered after a while. “Why would he do this? Why would he take away my identity?”Asher knew who Avery was referring to. He didn’t have the answers to those questions, only Wellesley knew why he had done what he had done.“I don’t know,” Asher said, brushing her hair back. “But I promise you, we’ll find out. I’ll help you, Avery—Raina—we’ll get to the bottom of it.”She looked up at him, eyes red and puffy. “But who even knows Raina Ross? How do I start? Where do I go from here?” she muttered.Asher hesitated. She was already spiraling. But she needed a way forward, a next step. He should have thought of that when he had seen the results. She wasn’t one to dwell on something without looking for a solution to move forward.Finally, sh

Asher’s POVAsher’s tires rolled quietly onto the driveway, the rhythmic ticking of the cooling engine echoing in the still afternoon air. The white envelope rested on the passenger seat like a loaded weapon, its contents heavier than paper and ink. He didn’t reach for it immediately. Instead, The second he pulled into the driveway, he grabbed his phone and called Nolan. He wasn’t sure how the conversation with Avery would go, but one thing he didn’t want to do, was get back into the car or let her get behind the driving steering to go pick the boys up from school.The line picked up after the first ring.“Asher?” Nolan answered. The concern in his voice was very clear. “ How did it go?” He asked.Nolan already knew why Asher had gone to the hospital. He had been the one who had recommended Dr. Meyers to Asher for a confidential DNA test.“As fine as it can be expected… it’s just a confirmation of what I already knew.” He answered. That should be enough to give Nolan a clue about wha

Asher’s POVAsher stormed through the hospital lobby, ignoring the curious looks thrown his way. His shoes hit the polished floor with deliberate, clipped steps. His wasn't necessarily an outright emergency, but he would be damned if he should drag his feet to the doctor's office. He just had to do this and get it done with.The elevators were too slow for his liking, so he opted for the stairs, taking them two at a time until he reached the third floor where Dr. Meyers’ office was located. It also helped with his cardio exercises, since he couldn't recall the last time he had visited the gym.He's been too busy lately that he had been pushing going to the gym. His body already was worked up even without being in the gym, with all his busy schedules.The moment he stepped into the quiet, sterile hallway, the door at the end opened as if they had been waiting for him, and Dr. Meyers himself appeared, clipboard in hand.“Mr. Storm,” the doctor said, offering a tight, professional smile
