“That was a nice way to start afresh with father.” he chuckles and stretches his figure lazily on the reading seat.

“That old man thinks he can make me marry again after what he had done? If not for the sake of Mia, I would have had his business go down the drain with me, but no I won't do that.” he groans and closes the notebook on the table.
