Too Late To Love Me Chapter 109
Ariana's POVI was still looking at the empty car park when Leo's phone buzzed twice against his palm.He read the message. I watched his face go hard, the way it did when a plan he trusted started to crack."Tell me," I said."My contact at the front desk." He held the screen out. "A man in a racing jacket just walked in asking for Alexander Hamilton's room number. Another man's with him, in a suit. He looks like he's holding a file."I didn't need to ask who. Racing jacket. Limp he was trying to hide. A man who had stopped believing his family's stories and started chasing his own."Caspian," I said."That's my guess.""How did he get here this fast?""The account." Leo kept his voice low. "He found the account, and the account led him to the consultancy, and the consultancy led him to Alex. It's all one thread. Someone pulled it."From the bed, Alex swore under his breath. "I thought we had another week.""So did I." I turned from the window and made myself think. Three seconds, th

Caspian's POVI spread the two files across the workshop table and held them down with a wrench and a can of brake fluid.The workshop was the one place in the house that still felt like mine. It smelled of oil and rubber, and the helmet on the shelf still had a scratch from my last good race. My legs ached from standing. I stayed on my feet anyway.On the left sat my investigator's report, with the dormant account circled in blue. On the right sat the folder Elle had pushed into my hands weeks ago, the one I had called a feeling. The same account number sat on both pages, digit for digit.I had laughed at her. I had called it jealousy, and told her to sit down."Idiot," I said to the empty room.My phone rang. I answered before the second buzz."Tell me you have it.""I have it," my investigator said. "The last layer. It took me all day.""Go.""The account was reactivated through a consultancy. Small, almost entirely on paper. No office worth the name, no staff, a mailbox address. I

Valarie's POVI stood beside Ari at the hospital window and watched Gerald's car sit under the streetlamp.She hadn't noticed me. She never did. Her palm was flat on the glass and her breathing had gone shallow. For someone who had just spent twenty minutes smiling and apologizing and looking ashamed, she was suddenly very still, like a woman waiting for a verdict.I had watched every minute of that lie.I had seen the way her voice shook in exactly the right places. I had heard her tell Gerald she didn't know how she felt about Alex. I had seen Gerald's shoulders loosen as he believed her. And I had stood in the corner thinking about a wall covered in photographs, a red circle around my father's name, and three words in her handwriting.Some of what she said had to be true. The best lies always carry a little truth. But I couldn't tell which parts, and that bothered me more than the lie itself.Gerald hadn't moved. The blue light of his phone lit his face from below.*What are you lo
Too Late To Love Me Chapter 106
Ariana's POVI had maybe three seconds.That was all the silence would give me. Gerald stood in the doorway with his keys in his hand, and I could see him putting the pieces together faster than I wanted him to. A woman who ran barefoot from this man, hugging him like he'd come back from the dead. It didn't fit, and he knew it didn't.I did what I always did. I reached for the truth and bent it."I know how this looks," I said."Ari, you don't have to—""No. I do." I stood up from the bed and pushed my hair back with both hands. I let my voice shake a little, because the shake was real, even if it wasn't coming from where he thought. "We broke up. I meant it. I'm not taking back what he did to me, and I'm not making excuses for it."Alex looked down at the blanket. Good. He knew his part."But I got that call and I thought he was dead," I went on. "I didn't think about anything else. I just ran. And when I walked in and he was sitting there with a broken leg, I didn't know whether to

Gerald's POVI read the name on the screen upside down, and it still took me a moment to believe it.Alex.Ari's face had gone pale. The softness from a minute ago was gone, wiped away so fast I almost wondered if I had imagined it. She snatched the phone off the counter and pressed it to her ear."Hello?"I couldn't hear the other voice. I only heard her."Who is this?" A pause. "Where? When?" Her free hand gripped the edge of the bar, and her knuckles went white. "Is he conscious? Is he... okay. Okay. Which hospital?"She hung up and stood there for a second, staring at nothing."Ari?""It's Alex." Her voice came out thin. "He's been in an accident. A nurse called from his phone. They found my number in his recent calls."I should have felt something simple. Relief that it wasn't serious, or sympathy, or even satisfaction. Instead I felt completely lost. This was the man who had put a handprint on her face. The man she had run from barefoot in the middle of the night. The man whose

Gerald's POVI walked into The Copper Door the next evening already decided.I hadn't slept much. I'd lain awake replaying the night before, her fingers closing around mine, the quiet way she'd said *I'm glad you came.* Somewhere around three in the morning I'd stopped arguing with myself. I was tired of it. Tired of leaving that bar every night with the same unsaid thing sitting in my chest.The end stool was empty. Of course it was. Nobody ever sat there anymore."Your throne awaits," Vanessa said, sliding a coaster in front of it."Thanks.""She saved it an hour ago. Told Paulie he'd lose a finger if he took it.""She didn't.""She did. Ask him." Vanessa raised an eyebrow. "You two are very cute, by the way. In a deeply annoying way.""We're not—""Sure."She moved off, laughing, and I sat down. It had stopped being a coincidence a while ago. Neither of us talked about it anymore. She kept the stool, and I took it, and that was simply how the evening started.Ari came down the bar
