[Isabella Hayes]I thought blocking my mother’s number for the second time in my life would send a message that I didn’t want anything to do with her.But once again, I’d forgotten that this was a woman who operated on her own time, not caring about anyone else’s boundaries.She called me with a new number every single day after that. On some days, she would call me three times. I was exhausted from having to block her numbers. The temptation to just hear her out was getting stronger, but I refused to give in to her relentless persistence.The day has finally arrived for the benefit dinner that David had invited Naomi to. I’d done some research on it.It was being held by the Lockwright family. The goal of the dinner was to raise money for the items being auctioned. All proceeds will be donated to a charity known as the ‘Save The Lost Kids.’An organization formed to help kids escape abusive households. They’d pay for the legal fees for the children, represent them, and provide them w

[Isabella Hayes]Naomi caught up to me at the bar, where I requested another martini.“So, what happened to the rules?”“I’m allowed to smack that piece of shit. I’m used to being dragged online for other people’s mistakes, so I might as well cause some drama.”She let out this small laugh of disbelief. “He said something you didn’t like, right?”I hummed, grateful that she could read me clearly. I was annoyed. Was there something on my head that gave off the vibe that I’d be comfortable with someone as awful as Julian Cross insulting Ethan?Ugh, I was supposed to linger in the background. Now people are staring.The bartender pushed the cup gently towards me with a smooth grin on his face. “Your martini, ma’am.”“Thank you.” I turned my attention to Naomi. “You shouldn’t be here.”She let out a long sigh, dragging it through her chest and out past her lips. “I know, I came to get a drink. I’ll be heading back. These people are pretentious. I’m trying not to say anything rude. Stick a

[Isabella Hayes]I didn’t want them to argue about me.Not now.My head was throbbing, my heart was refusing to slow down. My entire body was drenched in the blood of a woman I had respected, and I could still feel the warmth of it against my skin.I didn’t need them fighting over what was right or wrong.Not this moment.Not when I was barely holding myself together.I spun around on my heels, blinking rapidly as tears burned behind my eyes.My voice was finally returning. I parted my lips, ready to tell them both exactly where they could go.Then I saw him.Like a star appearing in the middle of a dark, endless night.Ethan.My breath caught.His hair was a mess, his tie loosened, his suit rumpled as he’d barely remembered he was wearing one. He was rushing out of a cab, and somehow, that frightened me more than anything else.Ethan didn’t take cabs.He had drivers. He had an impressive collection of cars. He could have had any one of them brought around within minutes.He didn’t ne

[Isabella Hayes]Ilana MayFeather was a wealthy elite woman who really got on a lot of people’s nerves because she wouldn’t conform to the type of person her peers wanted her to be.She was buried in a private burial ground exactly two days after she died. The burial was a private event that her closest friend had thrown. I received an invite despite not considering myself one of her friends.I guess I made her proud enough for her to talk about me to her closest people.Years ago, I attended a lot of her private garden parties. We chatted each time.Her death scared me because I was the one she had fallen on. Her blood had literally been on my arms, chest, skin, clothes, and hair. I was drenched in her blood the moment she held my arm.The funeral was beautiful, quiet, but scary.She might have had enemies, but no one ever considered that she would be killed in cold blood. Over something as frivolous as her prized necklace.I attend with the company of Ethan. He wasn’t too keen on le

[Adrian Cole]My entire day was fucked. All I could do was waltz around my home before finally giving up and deciding the best option was for me to go for a drive. My parents were still at the house, screaming at each other. Olivia had disappeared, and I really didn’t care.The drive did nothing to clear my head.I found myself circling my favorite spots until I spotted the one person who would make it all okay.Actually, the two people.Isabella and Ethan. Taking a stroll down one of the prettiest parks in the city. Hand in hand, laughing about something with their rings glistening under the street lights.I pulled my car to a stop across the street. Stepping out into the streets, I pulled a face mask over my mouth. I didn’t want to be noticed by the randoms going about their evening.What if they call attention to me? It’s bad enough that my divorce has been reignited once more. People who have no clue what really happened, and are taking the word affair and running with it.They do
