Third Person's POV

"The day after Moira's surgery is the end of the divorce cooling-off period. Don't be late for that."

Seeing her determination, Marcus felt like he was punching a feather pillow; he had nowhere to put his frustration.

His throat moved slightly. "Don't let the truth slip before Grandma's surgery."

"I know that. But you're getting engaged to another woman tomorrow. Do you really have the right to lecture me? Do you think it feels great to be the one you keep in the dark?"

Kelsey had been to the engagement venue today. She knew how lavish a wealthy person's engagement ceremony would be.

Yet, when she married Marcus, she had nothing. Sidney even forced her to sign a prenup, threatening her not to eye any of the Marshmans assets.

The gap between people really was huge.

Marcus yanked at his tie, frustrated. "Actually, my engagement with Angela is—"

    Kelsey's POVI swallowed the knot of emotion in my throat. I asked Moira quietly, "I know you worry. How have you been? Any pain?""I'm perfectly fine," she said. "You're the one worrying me, being pregnant and all."Moira scolded me gently. "When your belly gets bigger, listen to me. Quit working at that studio. Stay home and rest. Then I can stop worrying."I automatically touched my stomach. A tiny life was growing in there.My voice softened. "Okay, I promise."I'd already made my plan. When I couldn't hide the pregnancy anymore, I'd go back to Washington with my brothers.I'd stay there until the baby arrived. Washington was far from L.A. Marcus wouldn't easily find me, even if he looked. By then, he and Angela would likely be married. He'd probably forget all about me. He wouldn't care anyway.We chatted about everyday stuff. Then the door swung open. A rush of cool air came in.I turned. I saw that familiar figure

    Third Person's POVKelsey was worried about how to get out of there; cabs would be tough to find. Luckily, Lucas hadn't left yet.Just then, she heard Angela's voice behind her. "Kelsey, stop right there!"Kelsey turned and saw it was Angela."Looks like she wants to cause trouble?"There was no way Kelsey was sticking around. She needed to leave, fast.Kelsey hurried toward Lucas's car.Lucas saw Angela coming out, too. His heart hammered. He never expected to get caught like this.He had to protect Kelsey! This wasn't the time for the truth to come out!In a flash, Kelsey jumped into the passenger seat. "Lucas, step on it!""Got it."Lucas didn't ask questions. He floored the gas pedal and drove away.Angela stared in disbelief at the retreating car, frozen in place."Was that Lucas driving? Did I see that right?"She replayed the scene in her head, growing more certain. It was defini

    Third Person's POVCraig's eyes held a mix of envy, ambition, and hope.He looked down at Kelsey. "Kelsey, do you like the flowers?"Kelsey glanced at the blooms. "They're certainly beautiful."As soon as she spoke, Craig grabbed a similar bouquet nearby. "These are for you. When my studio expands someday, I'll get you just as many flowers."The nearby colleagues immediately cheered. "Say yes! Say yes!"Kelsey looked uncomfortable and was about to explain when she caught sight of someone walking in— Angela?Angela clicked in on her heels, looking haughty as she surveyed the setup. "It's almost finished, but a few small details need adjusting."Craig immediately put the flowers down. "Ms. Larson, what would you like to change? The designer responsible for this is here. She can make corrections right now."Kelsey saw the look of triumph on Angela's face and instantly understood.This engagement setup job was a

    Third Person's POVAfter signing the papers, Catherine held Kelsey's hand and asked, "Kelsey, we're all set now, right? Skye and Wally can't change anything when they come out?""Right, they can't change it. This is a big corporation with strict rules.""That's good. That's really good."Kelsey turned to her brothers. "Let's go home."If her brothers hadn't shown up to back her today, Skye and Wally would have been much worse.Digby suddenly said to her, "Our group has a rule when we handle old community renovations—the first person to sign usually gets the best deal. You might get extra compensation on top of the money.""Really?"Kelsey smiled. "It doesn't matter either way, as long as Skye and Wally can't cause trouble."But she still felt a little uneasy—the company belonged to Angela's brother.Mia had deliberately messed things up last time. Could Angela be playing a trick this time, too?

    Third Person's POVBack in the neighborhood, Kelsey finally relaxed once she confirmed Catherine was okay.Then, her brothers surrounded her, giving her another round of stern advice.Catherine was still worried. "The company went bankrupt. Will the renovation still happen?"Digby said confidently, "Don't worry, it will."Kelsey wasn't holding her breath. She knew getting into the relocation was a long shot to begin with.A moment later, a group of people in uniform walked in with a megaphone. "Hello, everyone. We are the new representatives taking over this project, from the GrandVista Real Estate Group. Please line up and sign your documents in order. We won't delay your relocation process!"The residents immediately started lining up.Kelsey was surprised. "GrandVista Real Estate is the one that bought the company!"Digby looked serious.
