Tessa's PovIt's been two days since the incident with Aaron. Looking back to how I defended Alex, I still can't shake off the look on Aaron's face. He had a hint of disappointment in his eyes but honestly gone are those days that I cared.I can't help but admit that Aaron changed, he would have punched Alex but he didn't, he just stood there, his attention on me, trying to get me to talk to him.As much as I hate to admit it, I've been thinking a lot about Aaron lately, I kept wondering how our life would have turned out if Lisa hadn't showed up, maybe we would be living together happily with Xavier and Zoey as one big happy family. But then on a second thought I shake off the thought of a perfect family with Aaron, he chose to love Lisa and not me and I respect that.I jolted out of my trance as I heard the knock on the door."Yes? Come in" I let out, adjusting myself on the chair."You have a meeting with the Modellos in five minutes Miss T" Rose, my secretary affirmed."Shit!" I c

"Anymore suggestions?" Silence follows as no one speaks up, showing they are satisfied with everything so far.I nod, glad it all went well and we would probably call it a day. "Okay, I think that's it, I will send the samples when I'm done for fittings" I concluded.As Anna packed up their stuff,

Aaron's Pov..I got home and checked my phone, surprised to see six missed calls from my mom. I hadn't noticed them earlier, so I quickly called back.The phone rings, and it didn't take too long before Mom picked up."Aaron, where have you been? You seem to have forgotten you have a mother" Mom said, her worries clearly reflecting in her voice."We both know that's not true, Mom. I've just been busy with work." I retort, my mood lighter. "Besides, Van is there to keep you company. But I will stop by this weekend to take Jesse to the park house" Mom takes a sharp breath and responded. "Well, I just wanted to know what's going on with my son. Besides, you've been distant since Tessa's return" Mom admits and pauses."Aaron, are you sure you're really okay?" Mom asks, clearly concerned. "Maybe you should come over and stay with us, that would help you keep your mind afloat, till you sort things out with Tessa" "Mom, mom" I called out, cutting her off sharply. "There won't be any need

Tessa's POVMara clears her throat slightly, her gaze still fixed on me as she begins."Augustine Thompson, Dylan Thompson. Does that ring a bell?" Mara said calmly, her voice unsteady.I chuckled lightly as the realization hits me. "Wait, it does ring a bell" I reply, trying to keep my voice steady. " I don't really know much about Dylan's family but they do have a striking resemblance" I said and paused.Quickly, I reached for my phone on the couch, as I searched for Augustine Thompson's page. Scrolling through his pictures, my eyes caught a picture of him and Dylan, it clicks.Seeing the look on my face, Mara gets anxious, she took the phone from me.Mara's face changes, an unreadable look plastered on her face as she gently gave me back my phone. "Augustine Thompson is Dylan's cousin" Mara murmured.Taking a deep breath. Mara's voice perks up. "I knew something was off, I just wasn't sure" Mara say, her voice rising in disbelief. "I should've known when Augustine said that I came

Tess's Pov..I pause for a moment, considering his request. Looking at Alex, he looked like he was really hoping I say yes.I shrug my shoulder and then I huddled my lips together, kind but firm. "I would've loved to but I can't Alex. To be honest, I have a lot on my plate right now, I doubt that I have time to spare," I say and paused, studying his reaction."Plus, I'm taking my kids to the park this weekend. I'm so hooked up" I continued. "But I promise to make out time soon. I'm sorry" I added, a pleading look registered on my face.Alex's face registers disappointment but he recovers quickly. "It's fine, Tessa. You don't have to apologize, I completely understand" he says, managing a weak smile.I noticed his not so bright face, I sort of felt guilty, I mean we're friends and I should treat him like one, if not for anything he has been genuinely good to me over the years.I look up at him, and before he could say another word, I step in. "You know what? I will shift my schedule. L

Tessa rolled her eyes at him, not sure if she heard him correctly. She had always loved him since forever but presenting her as a bride to his mother out of the blues did not make sense to her. This had better be a joke, she thought to herself Her mother stood up from her chair and approached Tessa, trailing her eyes at her body as if she was filled with filth. Tessa's clothes were stitched at the edges and merely looking at her one could tell she was from a poor background. Mrs. Winston let go of her gaze and stepped back to her chair saying, "She's such a pretty girl. Aside from her horrible choice of clothes, which is not a problem. We can fix that up. She's perfect for the job," A smile suddenly crossed her face and she relaxed back in her chair.Tessa chuckled inwardly, she gazed at them as if she was lost and what they were saying held no meaning. She managed to snap out of her trance and fired back at them"This is some sort of joke. Right?"Aaron shot her a deadly look. She m
