"You don't know how happy I was when my brother rejected you...It's my turn now. You belong to me!" That was Liam Sinclair, her ex-husband's twin brother. In the end, even her ex-husband came back to her and whispered hoarsely by her ears, "It might be a mistake to divorce you...Do I still stnd a chance, Mia?"

“Why do you even care?” “I don't. But perhaps I should thank Sierra for returning the favour.” “I hit you because you were being a jerk.” I snapped. “Anyone ever tell you you've got a sharp mouth? Watch it before it gets you in serious trouble.” Before I could fire back he was already walking off, carrying himself with quiet confidence and calm.
