Evelyn returned home after the enchanting time at Mia's book launch party, but her thoughts were far from settled. The memories of her reunion with Alexander lingered in her mind, stirring emotions she had long suppressed. As she resumed her daily routine, the weight of her responsibilities weighed heavily on her.Her children, Isabelle and Lucas, were busy with school and extracurricular activities, leaving Evelyn with a sense of pride and concern.One afternoon, as Evelyn was going about her household chores, Lucas rushed home, his face beaming with excitement. He couldn't contain his admiration for Hannah's actions at school. "Mom, you won't believe what Hannah did today!"Evelyn looked at her son, intrigued. "What happened, Lucas?"Lucas eagerly recounted the story of how Hannah had intervened to protect a bullied student, even though she was outnumbered. Her bravery had left an indelible impression on her classmates."Mom, she was amazing I've never seen anyone so fearless," Luca

In the restaurant close to their office, Richard and his best friend Micheal sat talking, " I don't understand what up with her these days , she's always distant, and angry, I can't wait for the anniversary to come already, she thinks I'm cheating with Lia and I've tried to tell her I'm not but she still suspicious and she letting it affect us" Richard complained to his friend, "bro I'm your best friend I know everything about you,but even I suspected that you were cheating you can't blame her" Micheal advices him " but honestly speaking, dude you need to tone it down with Lia, everyone is suspicious, you're giving her too much access to you of course everyone is going to be suspicious", "well I have to" Richard replied with a hint of defensiveness in his voice " she is my secretary, how else is she supposed to do her job". Shaking his head Micheal reached out and put his hands on Richrards shoulder, " there's a difference between a secretary and Lia, she's literally glued to your s

Pulling into her house, she got out of the car and was barraged with hugs and kisses from the kids, Isabella squeezed her tightly with tears streaming down her eyes, it was Lucas who finally spoke up, "We thought you got fed up with dad and left us for good", hearing those words from him broke the bands that held her guilt back and she began to cry with them. "Oh darling I would never do that, I just needed to think, I just...." They wouldn't understand so she held them closer, it was all Richard's fault if only he'd been truthful with her about Lia she wouldn't be thinking she had a right to do what she did with Alex, but who was she kidding, Richard didn't have a clue when it came to satisfy her sexually, so even if they weren't having issues as long as Alexander was in the picture she still would have cheated. Sighing she untangled herself from their embrace and led them into the house deciding to talk to Richard about Lia again and their sexual life."I just don't understand Mia s

Getting home, the house was empty, she checked her phone and saw texts from the kids and Richard. She checked Richard's text first, it said he was going to be home later than usual, the kids were sleeping over at their friend's house tonight, sighing she decided to keep herself busy. Putting on some music she began cleaning, after which she made dinner and then went to work on her lecture material for the next class, just then her phone rang, it was Alex, she had totally forgotten about calling him."Mi carino don't tell me you've forgotten about me so quickly" Sighing she apologized "It's okay, how are you my love, I miss you, I wish you were here, the things I would do to you mhhhh" realizing what he was doing she decided to try to resist his allure and replied "I'm fine Alex but I have work to do I can't talk for long, what did you want" sensing she was trying to shut him down she decided to leave her for now, "when will you be through with what your doing now" he asked, checking

In her bed Evelyn played the whole evening over again in her head, Alex was being sweet she was really confused, she and Alex had a strong and passionate past, but she still loved Richard despite the issues between them, she knew Alex wanted her back but she couldn't just turn her back on her family, sighing she turned to turn off her bedside lamp only to find Richard standing at the entrance of the door staring at her, shocked she let out a yelp and almost jumped off the bed, "Jesus christ Richard, do want to give me a heart attack, what are you doing just standing there" she said clutching her hand to her chest. Richard walked in and sat on the bed, reaching out he took her hands in his and looked her in the eyes " Evelyn I love you, you know that right, Lia does not measure up to you in anyway she just a secretary and that's all she'll ever be in my eyes, and because you are more important to me than she ever will be, I've decided to fire" with that Evelyn's face lit up with joy bu
