Ivy settled in the limo’s backseat, heading home. What a change to taking the train. It didn’t matter that she didn’t go home at once. It was nice to have someone drive her in comfort. The dark interior and gentle lighting somehow made everything easier.

Heath liked them to pick him up as well. The three of them would go home. Kathy didn’t use her beat up old car anymore, because Heath insisted, she use the car he’d bought as a family car to transport Geoff safely. With Parker’s help, Heath had Kathy using a member of their security team to mail her packages and pick up her packages from her post office box.

Ivy had to admit Parker played dirty by sending her a glitter bomb she’d opened after she got back to her studio. She called Ivy furious claiming Parker admitted to sending it to prove to her that anyone could send her a bomb. Kathy still felt outraged, even though she understood the point. Ivy could understand her outrage, even though the point

    “Wait, is Alice dating him?” Heath missed a lot because he wasn’t in the trenches like Ivy. It didn’t surprise her he was unaware of Ed’s search for a wife among the female staff. Ivy kept brushing him off, knowing if he chased her, then he wouldn’t chase any other woman. He was a nice guy if the woman wasn’t his wife. Or at least that’s how Ivy saw it. “He’s trying to make his moves on her, that’s obvious. I don’t think he’ll fool her. Maybe she can fix his mistaken beliefs. I lacked the time or interest to try. So, all the power to her if she tries. Though I think she’d be wasting her time.” Ivy leaned back in her seat and explained. She tried to act like she didn’t feel the tension coming from Heath. Ivy couldn’t believe he felt so threatened by what she’d just said. His concern for Alice was decent, she guessed, because Alice was her friend and co-worker. “I’m glad to hear you say that. You had me worried there that you thought I didn’t apprecia

    In the school cafeteria, Jimmie Marks cornered Geoff to taunt him with the information he got over the last few weeks about him. Jimmie was told that Geoff was poor and his mother married his dad for his money. “So, you got a stepdad. It still doesn’t count. Your dad didn’t want your mom or you.” Jimmie tried to mess with Geoff and embarrass him in front of everyone who heard him. He’d heard from his housekeeper’s son all about Geoff because he’d gone to school with him. Maybe he was a little jealous because his family hadn’t been invited to the Allerfords summer house for their yearly party. “He’s my real dad not my stepdad. It wasn’t that he didn’t want me or my mom. Don’t you read or listen to the news? You’re so stupid. My ex-stepmom lied to my dad and made him think my mom didn’t want him. She then made it, so my mom had to leave. My mom had enough of the nonsense and left. When she did that, she didn’t tell my dad where she went. His mom and dad made him marry my ex

    Ivy Smythe grabbed her coat. “Geoff, hop to it. Kathy will be here any minute to take you to school.” She knew today would be one of those days. Last night’s rain hadn’t helped her sleep, or her old injury. Years ago, she broke her leg, and during her treatment, she learned about Geoff’s pending arrival. The break was bad, the doctors wanted to operate, and it is standard practice to test a woman for pregnancy before any procedure. Ivy’s test, of course, returned positively. They forced her to choose, lose her baby, or walk with a limp. The doctor failed to tell her there’d be pain for years, but she wouldn’t change her decision if she’d known. She’d still choose Geoff.“Yeah, Mom.” Her son’s voice echoed through the hallway. The apartment was in the artisan section of the city. Nowhere near the museum she worked for. What it was close to her best friend and artist, Kathy Mills. It allowed Kathy to mind Geoff.Ivy looked in the mirror by the front door and adjusted her blonde bun. She

    “Okay, whatever you tell me won’t go past these four walls. Now, what’s this big secret? As Alice spoke, Ivy handed her the framed picture of Geoffrey from her desk.“Oh, he’s…” Ivy, plucked the framed portrait and sadly hid it in the bottom drawer of a filing cabinet. “You got it. I’m screwed and don’t know what to do.”“He’s Geoff’s father, and I guess since you’re hiding the photo. Mr. Allan doesn’t know Geoff exists.” “It’s a long story, and I won’t bore you with the details. Just don’t say anything until I work out what I’m doing.” Ivy couldn’t believe how calm and mature she appeared. She wasn’t calm or mature inside. Her mind hadn’t caught up, and when it hit, she was sure it’d be at the worst moment. Hopefully, she’d be alone and not embarrass herself.“Of course, I have your back. But doesn’t he deserve to know?”“He married the perfect woman a few months after graduation. As far as I know, it’s a perfect marriage and I’m not about to interrupt it with this. It’s actually mo

    “What do you want now, Monica?” Heath Allan closed the storage closet door as he asked this. Only for the door to open immediately to admit Parker Stephens right behind him, and Parker had the good sense to close the door promptly. Parker whispered to Heath. ‘Monica again?’ Heath nodded with the phone still to his ear.Of all the worst timing, his soon-to-be ex-wife called him to complain about something not being to her liking. “They declined my credit card, again. Why is my credit card no good, Heath?” Monica’s voice held a hint of a whiny tone as she tried to guilt him into giving her more money by pretending to be helpless and clueless. “Have you paid the bill for it lately?” Heath didn’t want to have this conversation with her again. It was the same conversation they had every time she called. “No, don’t bother answering that question. Of course, you didn’t pay the bill. Listen well, because I’m not repeating myself again, Monic

    Heath couldn’t get Ivy out of his mind after he saw her. He’d searched for her but didn’t find her. She must have left the building immediately. Clearly, something had happened since she now walked with a cane. It’d been about seven years since he’d last heard anything or tried searching for her. He’d found nothing and believed she must have left the city. Heath remembered the last time he saw her. They’d fought about an affair she had with some unknown idiot. Even when he showed her the photographs he had, she denied knowing who it was or even knowing where those photos were taken. This was the affair he’d come to suspect was a setup to drive Ivy away from him. He hated the thought that Monica and his mother may have conned him. Heath had to admit she stuck to her story well and wondered if she could continue with it after all this time. When he got into work the next morning, Parker was there waiting with a file.“It appears the pe

    Heath entered the museum early. He needed to speak with Ivy. What he’d read and saw in about her life after she’d disappeared from his life kept him awake most of the night. He still debated if he should call her into his office or storm into hers. Finally, he decided they would need a neutral ground. Because he feared this would end up badly if one of them lost their temper. With a better grasp of the way things worked in the museum, he stopped in the cafeteria at the front of the museum before he went to his office. While his fate brought Ivy into the cafeteria, and she sat there drinking a coffee with her phone in her hand. Coffee in hand, Heath strolled over and sat down. “We need to talk Ivy.” “I’ll have my department’s budget for next year to you by the end of the week. There won’t be anything outrageous in it.” She didn’t look up from her phone and he finally put his hand over the screen, so it forced her to look

    By the time Ivy arrived home and settled tiredly in her chair at the dinner table. Geoff and Kathy were eating their dinner of chicken nuggets, coleslaw, and macaroni and cheese.Geoff was halfway through dinner and much of the food was gone. “We saved you some, mom,” Geoff proudly stated. “It’s really good.” Ivy only now relaxed, safe at home with Geoff and Kathy. For once, she was home in time to sit down with them and eat her meal.“So, how was your day?” Kathy asked with a careful tone in her voice. “How was you know who to you today?”“Let’s put a pin in that and come back when we don’t have an audience?”“Oh, right? You still have a job, right?”“I will say yes for now, but I think this weekend I’ll be brushing up my resume and portfolio. Then I’ll quietly put some feelers out for something else. Even though I like it there.”“But that means you’d have to move.” Kathy’s surprise was something Ivy expected.“Let’s talk about it later when someone else is asleep?”“Does that mean

    Geoff enter his new school. He realized his insignificance among the other kids in school, but this time, he wasn’t alone. Three kids he met at the cottage a few weeks back were with him. They were his friends; they said to him. He’d accept it because his dad said he needed to make friends to learn to be like him. “Thanks for bringing me, Kathy. We know where we’re going.” Kathy blinked at Geoff in surprise. Geoff desired to appear as a helpless child, needing help to navigate the school corridors. “Okay, quick check then. Have you got your bag, water bottle, lunch, phone, and hat?” “Yup.” Geoff said. He insisted on wearing a fedora he found as his dad unpacked a box of old clothes. “Okay, then go seize the day and try to avoid getting in trouble. Don’t forget your security is in the parking lot. No leaving the school grounds without them and they’ll bring you home. Parker is with your dad today and I’m getting my workroom se

    Heath watched Ivy lose her confrontational nature, and that sexy hidden kitten came out to play. He loved it, because when this happened, she had no limits. He panted as she opened her blouse to reveal she wasn’t wearing a bra. Her hands moved to his waistband and Ivy had the air kissing his cock in moments before she was kneeling between his thighs, sucking on him like he remembered she used to do. His eyes devoured the sight of Ivy’s glistening lips bobbing on his hardening shaft. “Babe, slow down or the enjoyment will end too soon. You know I’ll want a good long taste of you too. God, you remember how good that is,” Heath said. He felt himself gasped as her small teeth nipped at his foreskin. His thighs shook a little. She’d barely gone down on him, and he wanted to lose himself. “Enough. I hope you have got no panties on either, or I’ll rip them apart to get to your cream.” Ivy resisted when he tried to pull from her mouth. She teased him by hol

    Ivy and the other wives could head off for several potential disasters. Finally, she witnessed Heath’s efforts to make the day of a dream come true. Thankfully, the wedding planner realized how dated and difficult achieving this was to arrange. In the end, Heath got what he wanted, and Ivy understood him better. He’d kept a storage space of things he couldn’t part with that she’d left behind when she’d left. One of which was a dream book all about her dream wedding. She’d made the book about a decade before she met Heath in her teens, like many girls. So, it was out of date by the time she’d met him. The only reason he’d known about the book was she’d found it one day and told him about it. But she’d forgotten about it. With help from her new friends and the planner, they could achieve their goals. Ivy got stronger and walking became easier. She returned to work and life continued. Geoff now seemed content with his two reliable parents.

    The weekend had been going well. The men didn’t disappear, as Ivy believed. They’d stayed close to the house and the kids. Ivy learned that this was normal. The men in Alec’s circle tended toward wanting to foster family bonds and friendships with people who had similar interests. The men all found they disliked how their parents raised them, and this was their answer to their problem. “You don’t know how glad we are. It’s you here and not her. Is it okay if we mention her? I don’t want to make you feel awkward.” Ivy sat outside on the patio after a rather enjoyable dinner. Heath had stayed true to his word, and the men were watching the kids play beside the lake. “It’s fine, I guess. Some argue I don’t consider her as much as she considers me. So, please understand, I probably won’t have much to say about her.” “You’re not angry at her for messing up your life?” “I’m sorry? Messing up my life. How? Everyone has r

    Ivy couldn’t believe how present Heath became. Present for Geoffrey and herself, that is. He’d planned everything and stunned her when he revealed how he’d remembered her dream wedding one evening. He’s changed from the man who only cared about marriage paperwork. But what had Ivy scratching her head was he’d written it all down and he wanted her to review it to ensure her wishes hadn’t changed. Or she preferred a newer style. Her preferences and opinions now took a precedence they never had before. Heath ensured that she and Geoff enjoyed the best at the Allerfords’ beachfront event. Heath went with Geoffrey shopping for clothes, as well as for school supplies. Geoff looked like an entirely different child, right down to his expensive new haircut and running shoes. Ivy initially dismissed it, as Geoff naturally outgrows clothes and requires haircuts. That happened to boys his age. She’d finish but clothing in one size to buy

    “Really?” Geoff was sure his dad would have limits. Geoff just needed to figure out what they were. His dad would surely appreciate his lack of tantrums and materialistic desires. At least not yet, anyway. Perhaps when he discovered what other children possessed. But right now, he enjoyed having his own gaming space and a lot of rooms to himself. Stop using the dining table for art and having to clean up before and after meals. “In the past, I used to dictate and control you and your mother’s actions and choices. Now is different and your mom and I decide together. But I have the connections and influence, so I’m the one that makes things happen. The young man will prioritize school, grades, and friendships. Learn from me to network and build connections for your family’s future. Remember the job I’m taking over from your grandfather?” They both wrinkled their noses when a member of the hospital staff pushed a cart by them with something smelly in it.
