I walked with Daniel, Victor and Theodore to the jewelry store. When we walked in, Victor immediately noticed a difference, “You’ve been working a lot.” I nodded, “I have. I’ve been working on items for the other shop during the day and the jewelry in the evening.”

I walked into the safe and Theodore gasped, “Good grief, young lady. Have you been resting at all?” I nodded, “I have. I’ve also been having so much fun creating pieces for the other store. The jewelry making is calming for me. You have to have a steady hand with a lot of it, so it forces me to stay calm.”

When I walked back out, I had the necklace on a special display and a box containing the matching earrings in my hands. I took it to the workbench and sat them down, “What do you think?” He touched the necklace, “Exquisite. I have a gown being shown at our next fashion show that this will match perfectly. Do you think we could do a contract where I can borrow some of your pieces for shows and photoshoots?”

I nodded, “I’m

  • The Ex-Wife He Never Knew   Chapter 60

    When we got home, Amy had dinner ready for us. I smiled as soon as I got off the elevator, “Mmm… Roast with potatoes and carrots. Yum. I love comfort food.” Daniel laughed, “Are we becoming food driven?” I laughed, “The babies are causing me to be food driven. They’re turning me into a pig!” He laughed, “You’re not a pig, love. You are feeding three. You’re allowed to be hungry all the time.”We sat at the table and I was happy to see homemade dinner rolls with dinner. Daniel laughed at me as I relished every bite, closing my eyes and moaning at the taste. Daniel laughed, “Should I leave you with some privacy?” I laughed out loud, “Just kidding, babe. It just really tastes good.” He chuckled, “I know it does. I was kidding too.”We were in the middle of dinner when Daniel’s phone pinged with a text. He looked at his phone, “Lacey and Angela are on their way up.” I asked, “Since when do they text you and not me?” He laughed, “Since I was the one who asked them to come over to begin wit

    When I got to the store, I unlocked the door and walked in. I walked around and looked at all of the items to be refurbished or repurposed. I smiled at all the possibilities. I heard the back door open and my contractor, Jessica or Jessie for short, walked in. She smiled, “Good morning, Harley. How are you feeling?” I smiled, “I’m okay. I was just looking over the stuff we brought from the storage lockers. How are you?”She smiled, “I’m feeling great. What do we have on the list for today?” I asked, “First off, I think we should do some smaller pieces to get out there. First, I would like you to sand these doors. I want to whitewash them, and then each pane of glass on them will be a picture frame. I would like to use two doors for each and put hinges on them big enough to let them stand together. Do you see where I’m going with it?”Jessie smiled, “This is going to be awesome! That would be a lot of pictures. Especially if you want to display pics on both sides. That’s thirty-two pic

    When Daniel and I went to the storage lockers, we watched Jace and Tony carry a large wardrobe that I had restored to its original condition, down to the color. I smiled, at that piece, “I remember restoring that one. It was very rundown. The hinges had been ripped off the doors and one of the small drawers was in pieces. I had to put it all together, sand it down and get new hardware for it. I loved working on that one.”Daniel chuckled, “It’s good to see you remember each piece. It means you’re passionate about it.” I nodded, “I am very passionate about it. You’ve seen me at flea markets.” He laughed, “I have. I’m also very impressed at your negotiating skills and your vision for the stuff you buy.”I went to the locker with the unfinished pieces and I asked, “Would you please get those doors and windows?” He started picking them up, “What are you going to do with them?” I smiled, “You’ll see. I think you’ll like them. I need to stop at my favorite craft store on the way home too. I

    The next morning, I woke up extra early. I tried and failed to go back to sleep, so I got out of bed, took my shower, and dressed in a pair of sweats and a T-shirt until it was time to go to the other shop. I decided to make a pot of full-strength coffee, then sit on the couch and sketch some new jewelry designs. I was almost done with my first sketch of the day when my phone vibrated.It was a text from an unknown number. I opened it and the person asked, “Do you know what your fiancé was doing Monday? He was with me.” I looked at the picture and it was time and date stamped for Monday, but the time was during my doctor’s appointment and he never left my side all day that day.I just laughed as I looked at the picture and it was the back of a man with a similar build as Daniel’s, and hair the same color and style. The face of the woman was blurred out, but I’m sure Daniel might recognize her.I didn’t delete the text or the picture, because I wanted Daniel to look at it when he woke

    I bought the building next to my shop the following day. It was perfect. The shop itself had plenty of floor space for all of the pieces that were complete, along with a few of the new pieces that I had completed during the week. I relied on Daniel, Jace and Tony for most of the heavy lifting. I only had to show them where to put them.I was able to hang the smaller pieces on the wall, while the larger mirrors needed to be hung by one of the guys. By the time it was done, I stood at the front door looking in and took a deep breath, “It looks perfect. I just need the business license and the sign out front and it will be done.”Lacey walked in the front door and immediately started jumping up and down and squealed loudly, “It’s so cute! This is going to be such a huge hit!” I smiled, “Thank you.” She asked, “So, tell me, why didn’t you think about doing this earlier? You’ve had a lot of this stuff sitting in that storage locker for at least a couple of years.” I shrugged, “I guess I di
