After a quick chat with Cameron about our partnership, we just needed Mr. Howard to come to West City and sign the contract. Right then, Zach knocked on the door.He smiled as he opened the door. “Mr. Quinlan, we can go now.”“Go where?” I asked right away.“To Cameron Hill,” Zach replied with a smile. “It might be a bumpy ride, so you might want to stay behind.”“As far as I know, Yonder Trading isn’t involved in real estate development yet.”He smiled mysteriously at me and walked out.Cameron seemed really interested in that mountain. It was at a good location, and it had great landscape. Nonetheless, only a strong company would have the courage to take on this project.I could not stop Cameron from going. He had asked me to watch Rachel.She was too busy playing with her Lego to pay attention to him. Cameron gave his daughter a kiss and left.That mountain had a lot of potential. If Cameron Hill was developed, the excavation, construction, and engineering companies worki

I acted fast and gave it my all.I slapped Cecilia so hard that she spun around and fell onto the couch.She was stunned. If I had not been tired and scared from the search earlier, I would have slapped her even harder.It was strange how things would always happen. Every time I got angry and acted out, Zach would catch me at my worst. This time was no different.He and Cameron walked into the medical station just in time to see me slapping the “helpless” Cecilia.One slap and I practically had her flying and landing on the couch. Her hair was all over her face.“Cassia!” Zach rushed over and pulled me back. I snapped. “Let me go, or else, I’ll hit you too!”He did not have time for me and went to check on his precious Cecilia.She was too stunned to move. I stood there and snorted. “One slap shouldn’t have knocked her out like that.”Cameron picked Rachel up, who softly explained what happened. “Cassia went to get some juice for me and told me to wait for her, but she…” R

Zach had returned.I knew that he was there for Cameron, not me.He was worried that I might take Cameron and Rachel somewhere else. He had not settled his partnership with Cameron after all.He said that Cameron was a businessman, but he was one too.I stayed put as Zach walked toward me under the bright fireworks.It reminded me of our wedding day. He had walked toward me under bright fireworks too. Everything he said that day was a lie.I could not even remember his exact words. It was almost like I had chosen to forget them. Perhaps that was better since they were just lies. Why should I remember them?When he reached me, I looked up and asked, “Is Cecilia dead?”He just stared at me as the fireworks were reflected in his eyes. They turned his eyes red and green.He did not answer, but the colors in his eyes were almost overwhelming.On a night like this, violence felt like the right choice.“While Cameron isn’t watching, you still have a chance to avenge her,” I sai

I was struggling to find the right words. “I know, but—”“Don’t say ‘but.’” Sophie cut me off.I stared at her in fear.I could not fathom why Austin would do that, but I was not curious to know. I was worried about how Sophie felt. I knew friendships between girls could be fragile.Well, it was not just girls; it was the same with guys. They might seem close, but as soon as a girl got involved, even the strongest friendships could be affected.“S-Sophie…” I stammered.Suddenly, Sophie pushed the tray into my arms and squeezed my arm excitedly. “If Austin kissed you, does that mean he likes girls and not guys?”“Huh?” I was confused.She jumped up in excitement. “That’s awesome!”“Awesome…?” I watched her rush inside and crouch in front of Austin. “Hey, you kissed Cassia. Are you going to kiss me too?”My heart raced, probably more than Sophie’s. I hoped that he would treat us fairly and kiss Sophie too.However, he did not move even after we waited for a long time. Soph

Zach sat down next to us and tried to reassure us, “Even though this came out of nowhere, the surgery isn’t too complicated. They only need to remove the collapsed stent and put in a new one.”“The doctor said that a transplant would be better,” Sophie muttered while she leaned on my shoulder. Then, she suddenly looked up at me and asked, “Do you think I could give him half of my heart?”“Are you serious?” Of course, she knew that was not possible. She was just really anxious. But if it were an option, Sophie would probably do it.My stomach growled loudly. I had not eaten all night, and with everything going on, I was starving.Even though I was not focusing on my hunger, my body could not take it anymore.I had even googled if pregnant women got hungry this early. The answers were all over the place and not very helpful.However, I was extremely hungry. I told them that I would go downstairs to grab some food and get Sophie a coffee.Zach insisted on coming with me. We walked
