BELLAThe air outside was thick, and my legs felt like lead as I forced myself to keep moving. Somewhere behind me, David’s assistant was calling my name, his voice drowned out by the weight pressing down on my chest. I kept walking, hoping that if I went far enough, I’d leave behind the image of them David and Lizzy, locked in that kiss.Somehow, I ended up at the park. The sound of children’s laughter cut through the evening, bright and carefree. I watched them race across the playground, tumbling over each other and shrieking with joy. My heart clenched. I wanted that freedom, that innocence the kind that didn’t have to worry about betrayal. I sank onto a bench, staring at the sky as it darkened. The evening chill crept in, wrapping around me, and I hugged myself tightly. What was I even thinking? I’d barely known David a few months, yet somewhere in my foolish heart, I thought he might actually care. But there was no mistaking what I’d seen. He loved her always had, probably alwa

DAVIDBella held the invitation in her hand, her eyes flickering with a hint of excitement as she scanned over it again. She hadn't looked this animated in days, and I could practically see the decision cementing itself in her mind."I'm going," she announced, her tone carrying a determination that made my jaw clench.I forced a nod. "Fine," I replied, though irritation prickled at the edges of my voice. I couldn’t keep the frustration from simmering just below the surface, even if I knew there was no stopping her.Without another word, Bella turned and made her way to her room. "I have work to do," she called over her shoulder, her pace quickening like she needed distance before I could respond further.The door clicked shut behind her, and I turned to my assistant, who’d been standing nearby, taking notes."Where’s the reunion?" I asked, keeping my tone casual, though I couldn’t hide the hint of urgency in my question."I’ll find out, sir," he replied with a nod, flipping through hi

BELLA I caught a glimpse of David heading down the hallway, his figure casting a long shadow under the dim lights. My voice cracked as I called out, “David.” He stopped, his eyes searching my face as he hurried back to me. His hands found my face, fingers warm against my skin. “What happened? Are you alright?”A hard knot formed in my throat as I shook my head. “It’s… it’s my dad. He’s in the emergency room.” A single tear slid down, quickly joined by another. The words barely came out, my voice breaking under the weight.Without another word, David wrapped his arm around me, his grip steady. “We’re going,” he said, firm and resolute. He led me outside, instructing his driver, who pulled up to the curb within seconds. The ride to Hope Valley was a blur, the city lights streaking past, but David’s hand never left mine. The warmth of his fingers anchored me, his thumb brushing gently over my knuckles.At the hospital, I rushed down the hallway, the sterile scent of disinfectant and the

DAVIDThe thought of Lizzy getting anywhere near Bella or her father made my jaw tighten. My hands balled into fists as I paced the hospital corridor, glancing at the door to Bella's father's room.Lizzy knew. How she found out, I wasn’t sure, but I knew her games better than anyone. We had played them together once. My lips curled into a humorless smirk. You think you can outplay me, Lizzy? Try me.Pulling out my phone, I punched in the number for my head of security.“I need ten bodyguards here. Now,” I ordered, my voice as cold as the polished floor beneath my feet.“Yes, sir,” came the immediate reply before I ended the call, my grip on the phone still tight.BELLAThe soft click of keys stirred me awake. Squinting against the morning light, I turned to see David sitting beside me, his face illuminated by the glow of his laptop screen.“Good morning,” I murmured, my voice still heavy with sleep.His head lifted, and a slow smile spread across his face. God, that smile. It was the

DAVID The red code flashed on my phone screen. My stomach dropped. Without a second thought, I bolted out of the boardroom, ignoring the questioning stares from the executives around the table. My pulse raced as I gripped the phone, the hallway blurring around me. Bella.By the time I reached the parking lot, I couldn’t wait for the driver. Snatching the keys from his hand, I barked, “Stay here,” and climbed into the car. My tires screeched as I tore out of the lot, each second dragging as I sped toward Hope Valley Hospital.The sight of my bodyguards lounging near the entrance made my blood boil. They straightened the moment I arrived, but I was already on them, grabbing one by the collar.“You let someone into the room?” I hissed, my voice dangerously low.His mouth opened, but no sound came out. My slap echoed across the lot, his head snapping sideways.“I gave strict orders no one goes in!”The others stiffened, their faces pale, eyes downcast. None of them dared to speak.“Where
