The School Gate Standoff

Amara's POV

I was standing outside Lily's school waiting for her to come out because it was parent pickup day, and I had promised her I would be there on time. I was ten minutes early so I leaned against my car and checked my phone while other parents started gathering around the gate.

    Chapter 71 The Ghost Lawyer's FileDamian's POVI sat in my office staring at the empty space where Amara used to be and the silence was so loud it felt like it was crushing me. My assistant knocked on the door and poked her head in and said "Mr Kane do you need anything?""No. Close the door on your way out," I said.She left and I spun my chair around to face the window. I looked out at the city below and thought about how I had everything money could buy, but none of it mattered because the only thing I wanted was gone. Gradually, I was winning her back.I turned back to my desk and opened the bottom drawer where I kept files that nobody else was supposed to see. I pulled out a thick manila folder that said "Benson Estate" on the tab.I had not looked at this file in years because every time I did it reminded me of what a terrible person I was. I had been lying to Amara since the day we met without even knowing it.I opened the folder and saw Caroline's signature on the contract.

    Chapter 70The Man Who Fixes ThingsDamian's POVI showed up at Amara's house on Saturday morning with my toolbox because she mentioned during our last phone call that her back door was sticking and would not close properly. I figured this was something useful I could do without being controlling or overbearing.I knocked on the front door and waited. After a minute she opened it looking surprised to see me standing there with tools in my hand."Damian? What are you doing here?" she asked."You said your back door was broken. I came to fix it," I said."I didn't ask you to come fix it," she said."I know but I wanted to help. Can I come in?" I asked.She looked at me for a moment and then stepped aside and said, "Fine….. but you don't have to do this.""I want to," I said and walked past her into the house.I went straight to the back door and examined it. I saw that the hinges were loose and the frame was warped which was why it kept sticking when she tried to close it."This should

    Chapter 69 Victor's OfferVictor's POVI waited three days after the school incident before I showed up at Amara's house because I knew she needed time to cool off.I pulled up to her house at six in the evening with a bouquet of white lilies because I remembered she once mentioned they were her favorite and I also brought documents from my lawyer that showed exactly how much financial security I could provide for her and Lily.I knocked on the door and waited. After a minute she opened it, her face showed surprise then annoyance."Victor, what are you doing here?" she asked."I came to talk to you properly this time. Can I come in?" I said.She hesitated for a moment and then stepped aside and said "You have ten minutes."I walked into her living room and she closed the door and stood with her arms crossed looking at me like she was already regretting letting me inside."These are for you," I said and held out the flowers."Thank you," she said and took them but did not move to put

I asked before he could say anything."I wanted to see Lilly, I haven't seen her since you left," he said."You can't just show up at her school without telling me first," I said."I'm her father Amara. I have a right to see her," he said."You have a right to schedule visits with me

    Chapter 67 Different Kinds of WantDamian's POVI told myself I was just driving through Amara's neighborhood because it was on the way to a business meeting, but that was a lie because the meeting was in the opposite direction and I knew exactly what I was doing.I slowed down as I approached her street, my eyes went straight to her house. That's when I saw it parked right there in her driveway, like he had every right to be there.Rami's car.My hands gripped the steering wheel so tight my knuckles turned white, and I felt my jaw clench as I stared at that silver sedan sitting in the spot where I wanted to be, anger started rising up in my chest like fire.I pulled over a few houses down where I could still see her place, where she would not notice me if she looked out the window. I sat there trying to breathe normally, but my heart was pounding, and my mind was racing with questions I did not want to ask.What was he doing there? How long had he been inside? Were they alone?

    Chapter 66: Home, Not SafeAmara POVI unlocked the door to my old house and stepped inside with Potty meowing loudly in her carrier and my suitcase rolling behind me. The house smelled a little dusty from being closed up for so long but it still felt more like mine than Damien's mansion ever did."We're home Potty," I said, as I set her carrier down and opened it.She ran out immediately and started exploring every corner of the living room like she was making sure everything was still the same. I smiled watching her because at least one of us was happy to be back here.I dragged my suitcase upstairs and started unpacking my clothes into the dresser drawers that I had left empty. My phone buzzed. I looked at it expecting it to be Damian asking if I got home safely but it was just a notification about a sale at some store I never shopped at. I put the phone back down and continued unpacking.By the time I finished, it was almost noon and my stomach was growling, so I went downstairs
