All Chapters of HER MOTHER’S LOVE: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Elena’s POV.“Where is it?” I hissed as I searched my handbag for my keys when a thought hit me.“I must have left it at Ryan’s place, since I slept at his place and went to the office from there.” I mumbled So I turned round and got back into the car, driving over to my boyfriend’s house.“Thank God he is at home.” I said as I parked my car at the side of the road and run-walked to his front door which surprisingly was locked.“But his car is here!” I said as I decided to use the back door The back door was unlocked, thank God. The moment I entered into the living room, the rhythm of some low sweet thumping was beating within my ears, married with gasps and moans that made my stomach twisted. What the hell? Heart pounding as I moved forward, keeping low behind the half-wall separating dining area from the couch. I could see it perfectly from there, but the angle hid me perfectly. And there they were, Ryan my boyfriend for two years, balls-deep in Mia, my best fucking friend sinc

Elena's POV "Take a seat, Miss Morgan." He said.I sat down, but my head spun around.He was calm, focused, and detached-like we were complete strangers.“Let us proceed," he said, turning over his file on the desk.I sat up straight in my chair,deciding to also play dumb.

Elena’s POV“Elena?”My mother’s soft voice broke through my thoughts. She touched my arm in concern. “Is something wrong, honey?”“Not at all.”The smile I gave felt contrived. Adrian seemed completely unaffected, as though we were strangers.He gave me a small smile. “Finally, nice to meet you, Elena. Your mother told me a lot about you.” I smiled sheepishly , feeling awkward. “Nice to meet you, too,” as I shook his hand. I only hoped it didn’t feel as clammy as it did.Victoria smiled, unaware of the chaos in my head. “Good. Now that we all have proper introductions, before the food gets cold, let’s head for dinner.”She took Adrian by the arm and led him into the dining room, like a girl presenting her first date. I followed her, my brain trying to unravel the crazy coincidences. The dinner was perfect.
