•GISELLE•

I was hyperventilating when Connor closed the door behind Noah. He steadied his breath before he turned and walked toward me.

“Hey, are you okay?” he asked as he rushed to my side. He had noticed my rapid breathing.

I released a deep breath before looking up at him. “Yeah, I’m fine,” I answered, managing a gentle smile. “Thank you for handling that for me. I honestly don’t want to see Noah.”

“I took the kids, Ashley and Haley, to my apartment in Beverly Hills. They will be safe there until you’re discharged,” he said as he sat on the bed beside me. “But Elle, what happened when you got shot?”

The question caused a knot in my stomach. My chest tightened, and my hands shook. I closed my eyes and tried to push away the memory that refused to stay buried.

My own sister. The one person I thought I had finally repaired things with. The one who smiled at me across a dinner table and told me and wanted peace between us.

She wanted me dead.

“I don’t know,” I muttered, shaking my head

    •GISELLE•“What happened to Nana?” My breath caught as I sat up on the bed, ignoring the sharp pain in my side from the gunshot wound.“She collapsed and died a few hours ago,” he answered. “Octavia and her parents are taking her to the countryside for the funeral.”I didn’t answer right away.The words settled heavy in my chest. Nana was gone. Just like my parents. One after the other, everyone who had ever truly loved me had been taken away.She had been the only person in that house who had made me feel wanted.When my adoptive parents looked at me like I was a burden, Nana had stepped in. She fed me when no one else cared to ask if I was hungry. She stood between me and their cruelty.She chose me.And now she was gone.“Is… is that why you came here earlier?” I asked quietly, my hand moving to my stomach as I fought the tears burning behind my eyes.“Yes,” he replied. He hesitated before continuing. “And I know she would want you at her funeral. She never stopped asking about you

    •NOAH•I couldn’t sleep for two nights, busy trying to call Giselle, but her phone took me straight to voicemail. I couldn’t reach her, which meant she was still in the ICU.I couldn’t help but feel like it was all my fault. Connor didn’t even let me see my kids. They weren’t at Giselle’s place anymore, which meant he had moved them.I was heading to the bathroom to shower when my cell phone rang, and when I saw Octavia’s name, I scoffed and almost didn’t answer the call.She was sobbing when I answered the call.“Octavia... what’s wrong?”“It’s my grandmother,” she sobbed. “She’s dead, Noah.”“Kiki is... gone?” My heart hammered in my chest. I froze as I was about to open the bathroom door.“Yes,” she continued sobbing. “I’m scared, Noah. I don’t want to lose our baby.”I paced, unsure of what to do. Just a few hours ago, my mind was made up that I’d divorce Octavia and take care of the child once they were born.If I had to go to her and comfort her for losing her grandmother, it wo

    •OCTAVIA•“Fuuuck!” I screamed at the steering wheel of my car. I slammed my head against the car seat and released a deep breath before driving off.I didn’t know what to do. Connor didn’t want to leave Giselle’s ward. I wanted to be alone with her and ensure she never ruined things for me when she woke up.When I shot her, I thought she’d die with the truth, and it would reach no one’s ears. My fear was her waking up and telling Connor and the police that I had shot her.She had ruined everything for me. She took away everything I had hoped to have, and I felt justified in protecting what was mine.The whole thing explained why Noah suddenly turned against me. The thought of him finding out Giselle was in the hospital because of me crippled me.Things were already bad because he was feeling bad about what grandfather told him. He blamed me for how his relationship with Giselle turned out.Connor had told him that Giselle knew about what had happened between us when we were in colle

    •CONNOR•“Hmm,” Octavia scoffed as she turned and looked at me. “What do you mean, Noah and I have done enough damage in college?”“Did you think I was dumb because of the eyeglasses I was wearing? You and Noah were fucking each other in Giselle’s face.”I could see through her. She probably thought I wasn’t there and watching when they sneaked around behind Giselle’s back, meeting in secret to exchange kisses.I found them one time behind the library, about to take off each other’s clothes, and pretended as if Octavia was helping Noah to fix his sweater.They thought I noticed nothing suspicious happening between them, but when I tried to tell Giselle the truth, I realized I couldn’t hurt her.I thought she would realize that Noah didn’t deserve her, but as time passed and their relationship matured, I realized I wouldn’t be able to tell her without breaking her heart and ruining our friendship.“What did you just say?” She leaned forward, her brows furrowed.“You heard that right, O

    •OCTAVIA•“What happened, Octavia?” Janet turned to me after the door closed in Noah’s room. “Did something happen between you two?”My heart dropped as I remembered everything he had said to me. When he told me he knew about what I did to Giselle so they wouldn’t end up together.For a moment, I felt as if I couldn’t breathe. My throat tightened, and my knees grew weak. When I left and went home, I hadn’t thought about what he said or whether he meant it.I thought if I came home, he would tell me he didn’t mean any of that. Instead, he kept insisting that I ruined his relationship with Giselle.“I don’t know, Jane. But Giselle did this.” I paused and swallowed, pushing back the tears in my eyes. “She’s turning him against me.”“No,” Janet scoffed. “I won’t allow that girl to ruin my son’s marriage. You two are having a baby, for God’s sake. I must speak with her,” she added as she turned her back on me and walked away.Donald leaned forward with my handbag. “I’m sorry, Octavia. I’ll
