Chris stormed out of the casino, his anger boiling over like a pot left unattended. He couldn't believe what had just happened. Ed, Tris's father, had set him up, manipulated him.As he walked out into the cool night air, Chris felt a sense of betrayal wash over him. Chris's thoughts turned to his father, John, who was still inside the casino, oblivious to the drama that had just unfolded. Chris shook his head, feeling a mix of anger and disappointment. His father was so caught up in his own addiction, he didn't even care about his own son's well-being.But Chris didn't have time to dwell on his father's problems. He had a mission, and that was to win Tris back. No matter what it took, Chris was determined to make it happen.As he walked away from the casino, Chris felt a sense of resolve wash over him. He would do whatever it took to prove to Tris that he loved her, that he was worthy of her love. He would fight for her, no matter what obstacles lay in his way.The city lights blurre

Despite Ed's denial, Tris couldn't shake off the feeling that her father was somehow involved in Chris's firing. But she didn't want to pursue the matter further, not tonight."I'm tired, Dad," Tris said, standing up from her chair. "I'm going to bed."Ed nodded, his expression neutral. "Goodnight, Tris. Sleep well."Tris nodded and turned to leave, but not before casting a suspicious glance at her father. She couldn't help but wonder if Ed was telling her the whole truth.As she walked to her bedroom, Tris couldn't shake off the feeling that her father was hiding something from her. But she was too tired to think about it anymore, and she just wanted to go to sleep and forget about the whole thing.Tris climbed into bed and closed her eyes, trying to push the thoughts of Chris and her father's possible involvement out of her mind. But as she drifted off to sleep, she couldn't help but wonder what was really going on.The next morning, Tris woke up early and got into her car, driving

Anne stumbled out of the bathroom, her face pale and clammy. Her mother, Karen, was waiting for her in the hallway, a look of concern etched on her face."Anne, sweetie, how are you feeling?" Karen asked, helping Anne to the couch.Anne collapsed onto the cushions, her eyes closing in exhaustion. "I'm so sick, Mom. I just can't stop throwing up."Karen sat down beside her, stroking her hair. "I know, baby. Morning sickness can be awful. But it's a good sign, remember? It means the baby is healthy."Anne's eyes snapped open, a look of frustration on her face. "I don't care about the baby right now, Mom. I just want to feel better."Karen's expression softened. "I know, sweetie. Just try to rest, okay? I'll take care of everything else."Anne nodded, closing her eyes again. She could hear her father, Andrew, moving around in the kitchen, but he didn't come to check on her. Anne knew he was still angry with her, still disappointed that she had gotten pregnant out of wedlock.But Anne had

Julian walked into Ed's office, the sound of his footsteps echoing off the walls. Ed looked up from the papers he was studying, a glass of whiskey in his hand, and raised an eyebrow."Julian, what brings you here?" Ed asked, his voice smooth as silk.Julian took a deep breath before speaking. "I've been thinking a lot about our previous conversations, Ed," he said. "And I've come to a realization."Ed's expression turned curious, and he leaned back in his chair. "Oh? And what realization is that?" he asked.Julian's eyes locked onto Ed's. "I want to accept your offer," he said, his voice firm.Ed's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "You want to accept my offer?" he repeated. "Julian, you've turned me down dozens of times. What's changed your mind?"Julian's expression turned introspective. "A lot of things, Ed," he said. "But mostly, it's Anna. She's been through a lot, and I want to be there for her. But I also need to think about my own future, and what's best for me."Ed's eyes narrowe

As soon as Tris walked into the mansion, she heard the familiar buzz of her phone. She pulled it out of her pocket and saw that she had a new message from an unknown number.Her heart skipped a beat as she read the message. It was from Chris, and he was asking her to meet him at the old park where they used to hang out.Tris's initial reaction was to ignore the message. She didn't want to see Chris, didn't want to risk falling back into the same patterns that had led to so much heartache.But as she stood there, thinking about the message, an idea began to form in her mind. Maybe, just maybe, this was an opportunity for her to confront Chris, to tell him how she really felt.Tris felt a surge of determination and quickly grabbed her keys. She was going to meet Chris, but not for the reasons he thought. She was going to meet him to finally close the chapter on their relationship and move on with her life.Without looking back, Tris walked out of the mansion and got into her car. She st
