My heart sank when I realized who they were.Victoria and Jonathan Whitmore were approaching from the left, looking elegant and expensive in their designer clothes.

Her face was pale and she was holding a stack of papers that were shaking in her hands."Jane, we have a serious problem.""What kind of problem?""The kind that could destroy the company."I put down my coffee cup and felt my stomach drop.

    "Shadows of the Past"Jane's POVI was sitting in my apartment, still shaking from what happened with Christian in the car, when someone knocked on my door. I looked through the peephole and saw two people I hadn't expected to see ever again.My adoptive parents. John and Mary Walton."Oh no," I whispered to myself.I opened the door slowly. Mary looked older than I remembered, with more gray hair and deeper lines around her eyes. John looked tired, like he'd been working too much."Jane," Mary said softly. "Can we come in?""How did you find me?""We saw you on the news. About your company. About your... other family."I felt my stomach drop. "What other family?""The Whitmores," John said.

    "The Moment They Can't Forget"Christian's POVI was driving Jane home after the gala, trying to keep my hands steady on the wheel, when she suddenly exploded."Christian, stop the car.""What?""I said stop the car.

By defending me tonight. By acting like you love me.""I do love you.""Do you? Or do you just love the idea of me?""What's the difference?""The difference is that loving me means accepting that I'm angry with you. That I don't trust you. That I might never forgive you.""I accept all of that."
