Chapter 117. “That’s not possible. Emma could never do something like this.” Travis defends his sister. Sure, he was pissed at her, but when it came down to it, she was still his baby sister. He would defend her with everything that he had. “Son, in my line of work, anything is possible,” Brian s
Chapter 118 I feel as my anger starts rising to the surface. I know what Brian said, but I still haven’t ruled out Reaper from my list of suspects. I mean, come the fuck on, he had Ava kidnapped. You just don’t do that unless you have an ulterior motive. Plus, what Brian says just doesn’t make sen
“From your tone of voice, it seems you’ve been around my daughter” “I can’t say around…we’ve been communicating.” He begins. He then tells us everything. His plan when he kidnapped Ava and how he went to her afterwards and asked her if he could be in the baby’s life. Ava, bless her kind soul which

Chapter 120 Rowan. It’s been three months. Three fucking months since Ava was shot, and she’s yet to wake up. With each month that goes by, everyone is slowly losing hope that she’ll ever wake up. It’s frustrating as hell, but there's nothing I can do about it. It’s now beyond anyone’s power. Sh
I stare at her, not really knowing what to do. “You can’t do that. Her mother hasn’t woken up yet.” “I know, but those are the rules of the hospital. One of you has to take her home whether Ava wakes up or not” Fuck. I run my hands through my messy hair. “Can’t she stay for just a little bit?” “I
