Laura "I ruined everything, right?" Richard asked as he drove the car, and I just sighed silently as I wiped my tears and touched up my makeup. I was meeting my daughter in a little while, and I didn't want him to see me with my face swollen and my eyes red from crying. I didn't want my daughter to

Laura That night, I talked to my daughter via video call until she fell asleep. I wanted so much to be there with her, but I couldn't right now. I watched with a silly smile as Richard took her in his arms and laid her on the bed as carefully as if my daughter were a precious egg. Then he left a wa

Annie POV After dinner, Summer and I returned to my room. Night was falling, and a fresh sense of expectation seemed to settle in with the darkness. The lamp next to my bed gave the room a soft, almost magical glow. "Let's do a skincare session before we go to bed?" Summer suggested, already getti
Annie POV We were called for dinner, and as we went downstairs, I found my parents in the dining room with the twins. "Sit here next to me, Summer," Daniel invited with a little smirk, patting the chair beside him. "No, sit next to me; it's better, beautiful," Stephen also invited her, making poo
