Laura I watched as Jason, with the help of the instructor, put Annie's life jacket on and prepared her to get into the boat. When they were inside the boat, they both waved to me, and Jason paddled out while Rosanne and I waved back. “Good heavens. They're so cute, I've never seen Jason as radian
Laura "So, what is the solution?" I asked Jason while we were in the room alone, and he was standing with his back to me, staring at the window with a tired look. As soon as he and Annie returned from the canoe trip beaming because they had managed to catch some fish on the banks of the lake, Ros
Ava “So, what was the result?” Terrence asked as he saw me leave the bathroom and head towards the bedroom. He was sitting on the bed with an apprehensive look as he looked at me expectantly. I shook my head briefly in the negative. “There’s nothing,” I said, and I saw him sighing, looking defeat
Jason “Are you still in touch with her?” Laura asked while she had her head lying on my chest. She and I were lying lazily in bed, taking advantage of that prime time in the early hours of the morning to exchange caresses and talk about our fears and concerns. She was asking about Kendall, wanting
Terrence That morning I woke up with an immeasurable headache, and then I remembered having drunk my shit last night. I was so frustrated yesterday that I ended up fighting with Ava, and then I went to a bar to drink to see if I could forget about my damn problems, and now I was having this annoyin
"That's enough?" I asked, wanting her to leave me alone. “Hm, that's enough for now,” she said after counting the money and putting it in her handbag. “What do you mean when you say for now?” I asked, but she surprised me with a quick kiss that I didn't even have time to pull away from and then
Ava As expected, Terry didn't sleep at home the night before. He went out drinking because he was angry with me and left me alone at home, worried. He deserved me to be very angry with him, but at that moment I could only be worried. I barely slept at all the whole night waiting for him to arrive;
Laura That morning, I woke up to my daughter's voice calling me. We had already returned to New York, and Jason couldn't sleep at my house the night before because he had a lot of things to resolve in Manhattan. Since he had stayed in Chicago for almost a month, he had to go back and resolve his pe
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
