LOGINMy heart skipped a beat when I turned around to see a handsome stranger standing across the busy room. Tall and confident, he oozed a mysterious aura that drew my attention right away. I felt a bolt of electricity run through my veins as our eyes briefly connected. It seemed as if an unseen link connected us, drawing me towards him in an unexplainable way. My heart was pounding, and a warm flush spread across my cheeks. This mystery guy affected me.

Gabriel's POVI know it when my gut feeling is screaming at me, and I know better than to ignore it. I'm happy I didn't ignore it when It told me to head to Jasmine's house, and when I arrived, I saw her in a panic, rushing to pack her bags for California. But I need to stay focused and keep my mind on what matters - Lexi. After Lily left my apartment, I made up my mind to leave Jasmine alone and prioritize Lexi. I know Jasmine might have thought I was stalking her when I showed up at Lino's, but what she doesn't know is that it's one of my favorite restaurants. I just can't help but think of Lexi's face lighting up whenever she sees me, and that alone makes my heart swell with love and affection. I'm determined to put my energy into building a connection with her, and I know that's exactly what I need to do right now.I step out of my car, clutching the Ziploc bag containing Lexi's hair sample, my fingers tightening around it as I head toward Quest Diagnostics.

Omg, the state of my living room is a total disaster! I'm shocked, SHOCKED, that Kelly and Sarah, the supposed adults, could let things get this out of hand. I mean, I know they're fun-loving, but come on! I call out their names, "Kelly, Sarah!" and they come scurrying down the stairs, looking like guilty little kids. "Shh, the girls are sleeping," they whisper as if that's an excuse for the chaos they've created. I stand with my hand on my hip, waiting for them to reach the bottom of the stairs, my eyes demanding an explanation. "Seriously, guys, what happened here?" I ask, trying to keep my tone light. As they make their way down the stairs, Kelly and Sarah dramatically flop onto the couch, exhausted. Sarah throws up her hands in frustration, "I don't think I want a baby girl, Jasmine, with what these girls put me through!" Kelly follows suit, collapsing onto the couch beside her, "Me too, Jasmine." I can't help but laugh at their antics, my earlier anger evaporating. I reali
Maxwell's face falls, his eyes widening in shock, but I don't let up. My anger and hurt are boiling over, and I'm not about to let him off the hook that easily. "You didn't care about being a father when you were busy cheating on me," I hissed, my voice venomous. "Why now? Why do you suddenly care about being a father?"I lean in, my eyes blazing "You want to see your daughter? Do you want to be in her life? You're going to have to do a lot more than just utter a pathetic sorry, Maxwell." I spit out the words, my disdain for him clear.And then, I dropped the bombshell. "And you know what? That girl isn't even yours." I say it with conviction, that I don't entirely feel. I know I confirmed the timing of her birth at the hospital, that it falls squarely within the time I was married to Maxwell. But still, I wonder... Why did I say that? I think to myself, even as the words spill outMaxwell's eyes narrow, his gaze flashing with guilt, like he's hiding something. But then, his expressi
