HELLO EX! I'M YOUR STEP- AUNT (Beyond Our Control)
His face gave little away, but Karina noticed how his gaze lingered on the family portraits, on the mantelpieces, as if trying to soak it all in.
Wally, who had been arranging flowers in the living room, looked up—and gasped.
"Damien Cavanaugh!"
"Yes, ma'am," he said with a modest smile.
"Oh my world! You look more handsome than on TV!"
"Thanks for the compliment," he replied.
"I'm Wally," she said, offering her hand. "Sophie's Aunt."
"Nice to meet you." He shook her hand, his touch firm but gentle.
Karina watched him, studying his features. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something about him was... familiar yet unreadable. As though he carried stories she didn’t yet know.
