Never Again Yours
Gideon showed up with all kinds of gifts—clothes, luxury goods, and even a mousse cake flown in on a private jet.
I did not reach for any of it.
There was a pleading note in his voice as he looked at me. "Audrey, will you give me another chance to win you back? I'm willing to make up for everything I failed to give you, one step at a time. I only ask that you don't turn me away."
My eyes fell on the cake, still perfectly chilled.
