Chapter: The Aftermath Lena sat in the dimly lit living room of her mansion, her fingers gripping the edge of her wine glass so tightly that she nearly cracked it.

I leaned back on my couch, staring at my phone for a moment before finally typing out the message.Mira: Want to grab a drink with me?I sent it before I could change my mind.It didn’t take long before my phone buzzed with an incoming call. Alex.I sighed, already knowing he was about to be annoying. I picked up.“You miss me that much, huh?” he teased the moment I answered.I rolled my eyes. “Don’t flatter yourself, Alex.”He chuckled. “Oh, come on, Mira. You invite me for a drink out of nowhere, and I’m not supposed to think you’re craving my presence?”I scoffed. “I just want a drink, that’s all.”“Sure, sure,” he said, dragging out the words. “So, where are we drinking?”I grabbed my car keys and headed for the door. “I was thinking of going to a bar.”He sighed. “Mira, the media is still watching. If we’re seen together, they’ll twist the story into something else.”I knew he was right, but I didn’t want to admit it.“So, what? I can’t even have a drink now?” I muttered as I got

Chapter: Do I Like Alex?Alex pulled up in front of my house, the car slowing to a stop.I sighed, knowing this was where we parted for the night.I turned to him. “So… you’re really not going to tell me what happened last night, are you?”He smirked. “Nope.”I groaned. “Alex, come on!”He just laughed. A real laugh, not his usual mocking one. Then, he opened his car door and stepped out.I raised a brow, watching as he walked around the car and stopped in front of me.Without saying a word, he pulled me into a soft hug.It wasn’t rushed. It wasn’t forced. Just… warm.“You should rest,” he murmured against my hair. “You have a big day tomorrow.”Then, just like that, he pulled away, got back into his car, and drove off.I screamed in excitement.Like actually screamed.Then, I spun around like a crazy person, hugging myself as a wide smile spread across my face.Alex hugged me. Alex hugged me.Why was I acting like a high school girl over a hug?I sighed dramatically.But then, as I t

Chapter: The Big Day( Mira’s Pov)Today was the hotel reopening.Ahhh, what a good day.I stretched my arms and took a deep breath, excitement buzzing through me. Everything had led to this moment—every late night, every challenge, every decision. And now, the day was finally here.I turned to Josh, who was still fast asleep.“Wake up, sleepyhead,” I said, gently shaking him.Josh groaned, turning to the other side. “Five more minutes,” he mumbled.I laughed. “No way. Today is important, and it’s your first time attending an event with me. You need to look your best.”At the mention of that, Josh sat up, rubbing his eyes. “Wait… for real?”“Yes, for real,” I said, ruffling his hair. “Now get up and get ready.”After a bit of complaining, Josh finally got up, and we started getting dressed. I picked out a sharp little suit for him, something classy but comfortable. He looked at himself in the mirror, nodding in approval.“I look cool,” he said, grinning.I smiled. “You always do.”For

Chapter: The Party Spoiler I sat at the elegantly decorated table, surrounded by Michael and a few of my parents’ old friends. It felt strange to be here with them, listening to their kind words after everything that had happened. Years ago, these same people had whispered behind my back when I left my family for Aaron. But I didn’t blame them—I had hated myself for it, too.“You’ve grown into a strong woman, Mira,” Lawson said, her soft smile filled with warmth. “Your parents would have been so proud of you.”I swallowed, forcing a polite smile. Would they?“They always knew you had potential,” Lawson added. “Back then, we were just… worried about the choices you made. But look at you now, running a successful business, standing on your own two feet.”Michael, who had been silently sipping his drink, finally spoke. “Mira’s always been capable.
