The silence that followed David’s outburst was deafening, with tension thick enough to cut through.Elizabeth had a smug look in her eyes as she stared at Travis, waiting patiently for him to speak, hoping his words would sink him deeper into the trap she had planned."What do you want to hear? What I have to say doesn't matter. You already heard it from her, and I'm sure you've formed your opinion like you always do," Travis stated.His eyes were red with controlled anger, and his voice had a deadly steel in them as he looked straight at his father."What did you just say?" David asked, his voice low and dangerous."Sweetheart, please calm down; I'm sure Travis didn't mean what he just said," Elizabethh mumbled with fake sympathy."Why don't you just tell Father that it's your ex-wife?" Michael shrugged, adding, "Well, your ex-girlfriend is in town too.""Michael, I don't think that is…" Felix chipped in quickly, trying to shut up Michael."This has nothing to do with you, Felix! So

At the hotel, Travis felt his breath skip as he turned back, his eyes shooting straight to his father.The room went still for a few seconds right before Michael spoke.“Are you alright?” Michael asked.Travis saw that he was no longer at his seat but was now standing right beside their father.“Mr. Ashford? Are you alright?” Felix asked, his eyes filled with concern too.David was bent over the table with one hand holding his head and the other gripping the table for dear life.He looked a little pale, his eyes closed, and for a second the fragility of how old he was became evident. In that moment, Travis saw the man he had once known as father before Elizabeth had gotten her fingers into him.“Father…” Travis started to say.“I’m fine!” David snapped.The pain that had just flashed across his face vanished as he glared up at Travis.He forced himself to stand straight, looked straight at Travis, and said, “Don’t worry; I’ve still got a long time to live.”Travis’s eyes narrowed in s

At the house, Fiona looked up again and asked, "Do you think we should call him?" after a few minutes of silence."If he needs help, I'm sure he would call us," Liora grinned.The thought of it amused her. She knew how much of a bother the twins could be when they were taken to the mall."Remember one of my summer visits a while back?" Fiona asked.Liora laughed at the thought as she responded, "Of course. How could I forget?"Fiona grinned and said, "We nearly carried home half of the mall that day."Liora laughed, shaking her head as she responded, "It took the attendant telling them that the rest of the things had been paid for to get them satisfied enough to leave."Fiona nodded, chuckling as she said, "God bless the heart of that attendant.""God bless her indeed. You can imagine my shock when I saw you guys coming home that day." Liora laughed."They were much younger then; let's assume they are better now." Fion smiled."I hope so too," Liora nodded."Considering Julian can be

The sun was about setting as Liora turned back. The familiar voice and its deep echo bouncing off her sink like a melody she hadn't heard in years.Memories flooded back, reminding her of the time they spent together, the pain of the memories causing her face to go blank."Liora?" he called again."Father," Liora responded in a clipped voice.There he was, a facade of himself, the man she had once called father staring back at her, his eyes hollow."What are you doing here?" Henry asked, looking shocked to see her.Before Liora could respond, the door behind her opened, and there she was, Lizzy Adams."Liora?" Lizzy called out in surprise.Liora turned and walked straight into the house, not giving a response."What do you think you're doing?" Lizzy called out."What else? Coming to pay you a visit like you insisted. Didn't want to be the ungrateful daughter like you called me out on." Liora shrugged as she walked into the living room.She moved over to the couch, sat down, and crosse

The whole room was tense as Liora waited, her ears perked up to pick up his words."…you said you were running away from town," Henry said.His words dropped into the room like shattering glass, echoing through the room like a piercing sound. For a split second everything was silent as Liora's eyes narrowed in shock as the words vibrated through her ears."I sent you that letter?" Liora asked."You did it on purpose, didn't you? You knew the Ashford was going to cut us off." Henry accused, pointing at her."For one damn minute can you not think only about yourself?" Liora shouted."Stop all the pretense, Liora! Stop it! We both know you're pretending, so if you've gotten what you came for, then get the h*ll out of my house," Henry shouted.They both stared at themselves like two strangers, the tension thick in the air."And you never thought to find me? Nor look for my mother?" Liora asked.Henry looked away, not meeting her eyes as he muttered, "I do not care about you or your mother
