Laura Jason ordered breakfast for us, and he was eating and talking to Annie as if they had known each other for a long time, it was incredible how well they two got along. "Yes, Ava. Annie was with Jason this whole time," I said, explaining to my friend on the phone while watching Annie and Jaso
Laura "You are jealous?" I asked him while we were still looking deeply at each other, so close to each other. "Of course I am," he replied curtly, and I couldn't stop the corners of my lips from turning up in a smile. "That never happened," I said to him. Jason had never been jealous of me bef
Laura "What? W-what are you talking about…?" I stammered, feeling my throat dry as I felt terribly judged by Richard and Ava's scrutinizing gazes, it was as if they were reading my soul in search of the truth. "Good heavens, what's all the fuss about? Even Annie could sense that something wasn't
When Richard left and it was just me and my daughter, as night had already fallen, I received a call from the number I recognized as Jason's. What did he want now? "Laura speaking," I said as soon as I answered. "Hello. You've had a pretty busy house today, haven't you?" He said with a light and
Laura"Why are you saying these things? Just to piss me off? Stop doing that," Jason said from the other side of the phone, and I ended up laughing, enjoying seeing him so jealous. "I'm just telling the truth, my dear. You're the one hurting over nothing, I never said we were a couple or anything,"
Jason The next morning, I had woken up first and was looking at Laura's cell phone. She was sleeping peacefully next to me, wrapped in the sheets so lazily, that I felt invited to lie down next to her, but I was doing something more interesting at the moment. "I'm using my woman's cell phone to t
Jason "Richard," I heard Laura whispering in astonishment, she definitely didn't expect the guy to appear out of nowhere at her house and find me there. "Daddy Ricky!" She shouted, and Annie ran to Richard, hugging him happily and innocently. "Good to see you, Daddy!" "I'm glad to see you too, g
Laura As expected, my daughter and I flew to Chicago on one of Jason's private jets, which made the trip much smoother. Although Annie was nervous and nauseous because it was her first time flying, I put her on my lap and caressed her to make her understand that she was safe. "It won't be long, i
Max POV “You want me to talk to my husband to help Gideon; is that what I heard?” Laura was asking me that with a look of shock on her face. “That's right, you heard very well,” I replied. “I want you to talk to your husband to help my brother.” Laura Williams Davies wanted to roll her eyes rig
Max POV“Could you give me a minute, please?” I asked as I approached Albert Williams. He was talking to Mel, his wife, and now that I had approached them, they had both turned to look at me.“Is it urgent?” Mel asked me, but it wasn't like I addressed her.“It has its urgency, I admit,” I replied h
Max I had left Lindsay alone with her new boyfriend in order to give them both privacy, especially because Matt Weiss might feel a little intimidated if I was around since he knew I was Lindsay's ex-husband's brother. I was going to find some fun at that party when I felt my shoulders being grabbed
Laura “I can really see your own secretary hitting on your husband and you can’t? Good God, you never change, don’t you, Laura?” Ava was rolling her eyes as she said that to me. I was really in shock as I saw that scene unfolding in front of me and at that moment I couldn't hold back, I immediate
Lindsay “Oh my Goodness, your brother doesn't stop staring at me like that. Is it because of my dress?” I asked, running my hand over my short, skin-tight dress that I had dared to wear for today. Why not, right? Max Bathory chuckled mischievously. “Maybe Gid is missing your feminine attributes, i
Laura I was in a corner of Albert's party with a glass of sparkling wine in my hand, sitting on one of the corners sofas in the company of Ava while she was telling me some gossip, and I was wandering around a little distracted, my gaze in the direction of Jason, who was chatting with some of his f
Zoey The party was in full swing. I didn't know what impressed me more: the undeniable luxury of the decoration or the people walking around, all of them looking like they came out of a movie. The atmosphere was vibrant, but in an elegant way—a play of soft lights and restrained laughter. The dres
Lindsay Melanie sent me the invitation, but I was so hesitant to confirm my presence at that party because, of course, it was her husband's party, who was Max's best friend, my ex-husband's brother, so I knew Gideon would be there. Zoey didn't need convincing; as soon as she received the invitatio
Zoey It was a cold night, but somehow, the anticipation I felt made the environment feel welcoming. Laura, always so generous and friendly, invited me to her brother Albert's birthday party. He was in his 30s, and from what I knew, he was always surrounded by a class of people I only saw in movies
