I stare at the papers in front of me, but the words are nothing but a blur. I couldn’t make sense of any of it, mainly because I couldn’t focus on shit. My thoughts were back home with Ava. I couldn’t help but worry, even though I had bodyguards protecting the whole compound. What if something hap
Ava It’s official. I miss my husband so much. It has only been a couple of hours since Rowan left, and I’m dying to pick up the phone and call him. I know I’m the one who insisted he should go to work today, but now I’m regretting it. I’ve done every chore around the house, which, by the way, isn

Nora and Theo arrive around thirty minutes later. Like I said, I haven’t been outside since that short trip from the hospital. I was dying to see how the city had changed. Four years is a lot of time for a fast-moving city like this one to stay the same. When the doorbell rings, I get up excitedly
Rowan. I still can’t get Letty’s words out of my head. When I came home early that day, I expected to spend some alone time with Ava. What I didn’t expect was to hear Letty telling Ava that she’d been falling in love with Ethan. The pain that shot through my fucking heart had almost blinded me. Ev
