I dropped onto the couch, exhausted after a long day, but Angela was still stuck in my head.I walked farther into the house looking for her, but she was nowhere to be found.I immediately pulled out my phone.The call connected after the second ring.“Where is she?”“At a private members club in West Hollywood.”“Who’s she with?”“Alone.”“Send me the address,” I said before grabbing my car keys from the table.“Yes, sir.”***Less than thirty minutes later, I walked into the private club and stopped in front of one of the rooms.The moment I stepped inside, both of them immediately turned toward me.Angela froze while Lyla’s expression changed instantly.My gaze fell to the thick envelope sitting on the t

If you want to step away from Hollywood for a while, I’ll support you.”“But don’t make huge decisions when your life is falling apart like this.” Beth looked straight at me. “Because once things calm down… you might regret walking away from something you still love.”I stayed quiet.Beth watched me for a few seconds before letting out a slow sigh.“And honestly… I don’t think you’re just trying to run away from Hollywood right now.”“You’re trying to run away from Aaron too, aren’t you?”“I kn
