When I got home, the house was still quiet.Everyone was still out.Thank God.I wasn’t ready for anyone to see my face or ask me what had happened.I took Leo upstairs and changed him into a pair of shorts and a singlet. He climbed onto the bed and lay down, while I sat beside him.For a while, I said nothing.There was too much going through my mind.What happened at the park.The look on Dominic’s face.Leo asking why he had hurt me.I swallowed.But beneath all of that, there was one thing I still didn’t know.How was Leo feeling?I turned toward him.“Are you sad?”Leo looked at me.“I’m sad that Scholarship Man hurt you.”My chest tightened.Then he added quietly,“But I’m also happy that I have a daddy just like the other kids in my class.”I stared at him.For a moment, I didn’t know what to say.He wasn’t angry about having a father.He was happy.A small, painful smile touched my lips.“He isn’t a bad person,” I said carefully. “He just didn’t know how to express himself at

He had that particular expression he wore whenever he was trying to pretend something wasn’t a big deal.Ford glanced up from his plate.“What?”Pierce leaned back in his chair.“I’ve been seeing someone.”My eyebrows lifted.Pierce noticed.“Well… talking to someone,” he corrected. “We haven’t actually gone out yet.”I smiled.“How long?”“About a month.”I stared at him.Pierce shrugged casually.“I met her at a club about a month ago. We started talking that night, exchanged numbers, and we’ve been talking ever since.”Ford gave him an amused look.“And you’re telling us now?”“I wanted to make sure I actually liked her first.”That made me smile.“So you do?”Pierce’s expression softened.“Yeah.”There was no teasing smile on his face this time.He actually looked serious.“I like her.”I leaned back slightly.“What is her name?”“Gabriella.”He paused before adding,“Her father is Adrian Blackwell. Blackwell Capital.”Hayes looked up at that.I knew the name.Adrian Blackwell was

Pierce continued.“I saw the way he looked when Leo was in the hospital with his eye covered in that bandage. I saw him at that mask party on the yacht when Mirabel tried to cause a scene. I saw how he defended you when she posted that fake story, and I saw how he helped clear your name before Fashion Week.”My fingers curled into my palms.“I could say he’s doing all of it for attention, but his eyes don’t look like a man who’s putting on a show.”I looked at him again.“And most importantly, I see how patient he is,” he paused, “Well, he has no choice but to be patient.”That sentence stayed between us for a moment.Pierce exhaled quietly.“Other men would have tried to take custody when they found out they had a child with their ex. I was honestly preparing myself for that.”My heart tightened.“But he didn’t do any of that. He didn’t try to force his way into your life through Leo, and I hate admitting that because I don’t like the man. I don’t like what he did to you.”Pierce’s g

I started reading.The first line was waiting for me beneath the date.~Today is her birthday.~This is the first birthday without Aurelia since we got married.My eyes stayed on the sentence.My fingers tightened around the edge of the journal.He remembered.Of course he knew my birthday.But he had decided not to celebrate it with me during our marriage.He had known the date every year.He had known it was important to me.And still, I had spent those birthdays waiting for something that never came.A simple wish.A small gesture.Anything that would make me feel like I mattered to the man I had married.Instead, I had learned not to expect anything.I swallowed and continued reading.~Not that I even acknowledged her birthday when she was still with me.My chest tightened.I continued reading.~I can’t reverse anything. I can’t change everything I did.No.He couldn’t.That was the problem.He couldn’t reverse anything.He couldn’t give me back the birthdays I spent feeling forgo

He looked exactly like the man I had spent the entire night trying to convince myself to let go of.He closed the car door and looked around.Then his eyes found mine.He walked toward me.I swallowed and straightened.He stopped a few feet away.His eyes searched my face.“Are you okay?”I nodded.My throat felt too tight.“Yeah.”The word barely came out.He continued looking at me.Waiting.I looked away for a moment.Then back at him.I had called him here.I had spent the entire night deciding what I needed to say.There was no turning back now.I drew in a slow breath.“Dominic…”He remained silent.His eyes stayed on mine, waiting.I could see the question in them.What was wrong?Why had I called him here?I tightened my fingers around the strap of my bag.“How much do you care about me?”The question seemed to catch him off guard.His brows drew together slightly.For a moment, he simply stared at me.Then his expression softened.“More than I know how to say.”My heart gave
