CHAPTER 79

Ava’s POVBy the time I finished work, I was already exhausted.I stepped out of Reynolds Holdings and immediately spotted Sebastian waiting beside his car.He smiled when he saw me.“Good evening, Ava.”“Good evening, Sebastian.”I walked toward him and got into the passenger seat.He got in after me, and soon the car pulled away from the company.I looked at him.“So, where are we going?”He glanced at me with a small smile.“To dinner.”“Dinner where?”“You'll see.”I raised an eyebrow.“That sounds suspicious.”He laughed.“I promise you, you'll like it.”I looked down at my clothes. I was wearing a simple pair of trousers and a blouse.Sebastian glanced at me too.“Actually, before we go to the restaurant, we're stopping at a shopping mall.”“Why?”“Because you need a dress.”I looked at him in confusion.“A dress?”“Yes. The restaurant we're going to is very exclusive. I don't think your current outfit is suitable.”I looked at myself again.“I think I'm dressed fine.”“You are,

CHAPTER 80

Liam’s POVI stayed outside Ava's apartment for several minutes, watching from inside my car.Sebastian helped her with the shopping bags before handing her one particular bag.Ava opened it and looked inside. Her expression softened.I didn't need to ask what it was.A for Damien.My jaw tightened.He was already buying things for my son.Sebastian said something to her, and she smiled.Something inside me burned. I tightened my grip around the steering wheel.For one second, I wanted to get out. I wanted to walk over there and tell him to stay the hell away from her.But I stopped myself.Ava wasn't mine anymore. I was the one who had ended things.So what right did I have?I watched Sebastian leave and Ava disappeared into the building.Yet I remained there.I couldn't explain why seeing her with him hurt this much.I started the engine. I didn't want to go home.I needed somewhere else to be.And there was only one person I could think of.Adrian.It was almost an hour later when

CHAPTER 81

Liam’s POVThe first thing I heard when I opened my eyes was the faint sound of the television coming from the living room.For a moment, I forgot where I was. Then I remembered.Adrian's penthouse.I sat up slowly, rubbing my face. My body felt better than it had in days. Maybe sleeping somewhere that wasn't my own house had actually helped.I met a suit on one of the chair in the room. I had my bath, got dressed and walked into the living room.Adrian was already there, drinking coffee.“You're alive,” he said.I gave him a tired look.“Unfortunately.”He laughed. “Coffee?”“Please.”He handed me a cup.I took a sip.“Thanks for letting me stay.”“You're welcome. Though next time, try calling before invading my home.”“I knew the password.”“That isn't the point.”I smiled.We exchanged a few more words before I left.But the moment I got into my car, the calm I'd felt disappeared.My mind went straight back to Ava. I remembered seeing her with Sebastian.Then I remembered the kiss,

CHAPTER 82

Ava's Pov The soft sound of my alarm pulled me out of sleep.I reached for my phone on the nightstand and turned it off before slowly sitting up in bed.For a few seconds, I just stared ahead.My mind was already filled with everything that had been happening lately.Liam, the threats, Damien, Sebastian and the anonymous messages that Dr Miranda refused to stop.I rubbed my face and forced myself to push all of it aside.I had work and more importantly, I had Damien.I got out of bed, took a quick shower, and got dressed for work. By the time I came out of my room, Damien was already awake and sitting at the dining table, eating his breakfast. Isa has left already.He looked up the moment he saw me.“Mommy.”I smiled, “Good morning, baby.”“Good morning.”I walked over and kissed his forehead before sitting beside him.He continued eating for a few seconds before suddenly looking at me.“Mommy?”“Yes?”“Can you take me to school today?”I paused.It had been a long time since I perso

CHAPTER 83

Ava's Pov I couldn't stop thinking about it.My name had been among the employees being considered. Mr. Torres had just confirmed it himself.So how did it suddenly disappear?I walked back to my desk, but I couldn't bring myself to sit down.Elena and Stacy were still talking about the announcement, but I barely heard them.My mind had already made its decision.I needed to speak to Liam.I knew he had the final authority over the executive department. And whether I liked it or not, I needed to know if he was responsible for this.I took a deep breath and headed toward the elevators.Elena noticed me.“Where are you going?”“I need to talk to someone.”“About the list?”I nodded.She looked worried.“Do you want us to come with you?”“No.” I gave her a small smile. “I'll be fine.”I stepped into the elevator before either of them could say anything else.As the doors closed, I leaned against the wall and exhaled slowly.I didn't know what I was expecting.An explanation? An apology?

CHAPTER 84

Margaret's Pov I sat quietly in my private sitting room, staring through the large windows as the city lights flickered in the distance.My fingers rested against the arm of the chair as I thought about Ava Morales.That woman had already caused enough trouble.She had lied to Liam. She had kept his son from him for six years. And yet, somehow, she was still standing. Still working at Reynolds Holdings, still living her life, still finding ways to remain close to my grandson.I narrowed my eyes.I had tried to separate them before. Warnings hadn't worked, pressure hadn't worked. Even Liam's anger hadn't been enough to completely erase her from his heart.If Ava remained in New York, there was always a possibility that Liam would eventually forgive her.And I couldn't allow that.I reached for my phone and made a call.It rang twice before someone answered.“Mrs Reynolds.”“I need you to handle something for me.”There was a brief silence.“What do you need?”“Ava Morales needs to le

CHAPTER 85

Ava's Pov By the time I got home from work, I felt completely drained.The day had been too much.First, my name was missing from the executive department list. Then Liam had looked me in the eyes and made me feel like I wasn't good enough for the position.His words kept replaying in my head.What makes you think you're capable of being there?I hated that they still hurt.I dropped my bag on the couch and sighed.I didn't want to think about Liam anymore. I didn't want to think about work either.I just wanted peace.I changed into something comfortable, turned on the television, and headed into the kitchen.I made something quick to eat and returned to the sitting room with my plate.For the next few minutes, I forced myself to focus on the television.But even then, my mind wouldn't stay quiet.I thought about Damien..At least seeing him would make my day better.I glanced toward the door.Isa and Damien were probably still at the restaurant.I relaxed against the couch and conti

CHAPTER 86

Liam's Pov Dinner was unusually quiet.I had prepared creamy beef pasta, and the four of us sat around the dining table eating.Diana and Damien occasionally exchanged little smiles, but neither Ava nor I said much.There was still too much between us.Too many things that hadn't been resolved.When we finished eating, Diana and Damien carried their plates away before disappearing into the living room to watch cartoons.A few minutes later, the doorbell rang.I got up and walked to the door.The pizza delivery guy stood outside with the order.I took the boxes from him, thanked him, and brought them inside.The children immediately became excited.“Pizza!” Damien shouted.I laughed.“You two just finished your dinner.”“We're still hungry,” Diana said.I shook my head and carried the boxes to them.“Fine. But don't make a mess.”They happily opened the boxes and settled in front of the television.I stood there watching them for a moment.I hadn't planned on bringing Damien here. I h

CHAPTER 87

Ava's Pov Liam worshipped my body like I was a goddess herself.He licked my neck, moving down to my collarbone, my breasts, my tummy, my thighs, my toes, my pussy. Every part of my body received his attention.It was insane.“I told you tonight's gonna be a long night, Ava.”Liam stood from the bed and walked into another room, which I assumed was the closet.I sat nervously on the bed, wondering what he was up to.After a few minutes, he came back with...Wait.Those were sex toys, if I was seeing correctly.“Liam, how do you have those?” I asked, confused.“Does that matter right now? Don't spoil the fun, Ava,” Liam groaned.He dropped them on the bedside table before climbing onto the bed and crawling toward me.“You'll lie flat, Ava. On the bed.”I did as he told me.Liam picked up a pair of handcuffs from the things he'd brought.My eyes widened.“What are you doing with those?”Liam chuckled.“Relax, Angel. I'm not gonna hurt you.”He leaned down, took both my hands, and handc

CHAPTER 88

Sebastian's Pov I watched Ava walk away from the lobby until she disappeared through the doors.A small smile formed on my lips.There was something about that woman. Even when she was clearly dealing with problems, she still had that fire in her.And I liked it. Maybe more than I should.Liam and Ava were no longer together. Everyone knew that. And for the first time, I felt like I actually had a chance.I wanted her. Not just for a few dates.I wanted her to be mine.“Boss.”I turned around.My secretary stood behind me.“Everything is ready.”I nodded.“Good.”I started walking, and several executives followed behind me.We entered the elevator together.As the doors closed, I leaned against the wall and checked my phone.The first collaboration between Cross Industries and Reynolds Holdings had finally reached its first major milestone.Everything was moving exactly as planned.When the elevator opened, we headed toward the meeting room.Liam and his executives were already seate
