“Wait! Did I say anything to make you mad?” Sebastian asked, grabbing my hand as I tried to leave.

“Did you seriously think I wouldn’t get what you meant, or did you think I would be so low as to be interested?” I turned back to him, wearing a nasty scowl.

I knew it; I knew there was a catch somewhere, and he just threw it at me.

“What I meant? What are you talking about? He gawked at me, staring at me with wide eyes, and his scowl deepened. How dare he try to play innocent after he said that? Did he think I wouldn’t get the innuendo?

“Really? You’re acting like you don’t know?” I glowered, yanking my hand away. “You’re lonely, and you want me to keep you company to spice your apartment up? Do you think I’m dumb that I don’t know that involves your bed?”

“What!” He gasped as he stood to his feet and gaped at me like I had gone crazy. “That isn’t what I mean! It seems you misunderstood everything. You’re beautiful but that doesn’t mean I want to take advantage of you. I’m not low.”

    "What?" I gasped as my eyes widened."In my lowest time, you were there. You were in your lowest too, but you selflessly reached out to me. You saved me, Aurora, without knowing. You saved me and my family. Without you, I would have died, and I would have hurt my family. Even if my dad got better and my mom and Bianca managed to save the company from bankruptcy, it wouldn't have been the same as now. There would have been a gaping hole because of my absence. But, because of your kindness to a stranger at the darkest moment of your life, you saved us. And the Warners' family are indebted to you." Sebastian said softly as tears brimmed in his eyes."You don't have to be indebted to me. Honestly, I didn't do anything big. Anybody would have done what I did if they were in my shoes." I replied, flustered at his words."I don't believe that, Aurora. You had your own problems; no one would have faulted you if you looked away from me, but you didn't. You came to me like an angel of light.

    My phone's annoying constant vibration woke me from my sleep, and I groaned. I picked it up as I sat up, and I frowned at the many notifications from my social media.I opened one of them, and I gasped at the multiple hate messages sent to my dm.What's going on?My hands trembled as I checked each message, each notification, and they all had the same thing in common. They were calling me a sl*t, a whore, a bitch. Many of them said I didn't deserve Sebastian and we should break up.Bruno had sent me a message, asking me if I like his present.Tears streamed down my face as I finally saw the cause of all the hate towards me. It was a video, and though it was not too clear, I could see the two people in it clearly. It was I and Bruno at the restaurant, kissing.The video was taken at an angle that hid the fact that he was forcing me, and it only showed the few seconds when our lips touched.It was all a setup.He already planned to cause the scandal when he invited me to the restaurant.

    "Excuse me? That's your deal." I gawked at him with my mouth hanging open."Yes. You can call Sebastian now and tell him it's over. I heard that you're living with him, so I expect you to move out within three days. I won't rush you about spending the night with me, but it has to be within one week. These are fair conditions, aren't they? Honestly, I think it's a low price to have our daughter all to yourself, but I've always been an understanding man, haven't I?" Bruno grinned.Wait. This man expected me to break up with my 'boyfriend', move out, and sleep with him?!"Have you run mad? Did you drink before you came here? Or is it drugs? Have you started doing drugs?" I asked, genuinely worried because he had to be high on something or sick in the head to demand such stupidity from me."Don't insult me, woman! I'm doing you a favour and this is the thank you I get?! I ought to walk out of here and make plans with my lawyer to make sure I get full custody of our daughter." He snarl

    'I can do this. I can do this. It's just a simple meeting. He can't do anything to me.'I told myself as the waitress led us to the private dining room in the restaurant Bruno had reserved for us. My stomach clenched the moment my gaze rested on him; my legs trembled.This was a bad idea. I shouldn't be here, or at least, I should have told Sebastian.But it was too late to run. I was already in the mess. The best I could do was to take advantage of the situation and hope that something good came out."I'm glad you could make it." Bruno grinned as he stood up and pulled out the opposite chair for me.I bristled as my gaze flickered from him to the chair.Why was he acting like a gentleman? Was this some kind of trick? Whatever it was, I wasn't falling for it.'I am not timid. I am strong. I am confident. Bruno has no hold on me. I am no longer afraid. I am free.' I chanted in my brain, sending a bolt of confidence through me, and I squared my shoulders.I couldn't show him that I was

    "Mommy?" Tiffany mumbled; her big blue eyes watched me as I tucked her in bed. "Yes?" I replied. "Are you ok? You look sad since we got home." She said, and my lips twitched to a small frown. I hadn't expected her to pick that up, but who could escape the watchful eyes of kids? Bruno really messed up my mood. No matter how hard I tried to distract myself, my mind always went back to the envelope. "I do?" I whispered as I sat beside her, and she nodded. "Hum, don't be sad; I miss Grandma and Grandpa too, but we'll see them soon." She yawned and snuggled under the duvet. "I guess you're right. Thanks for reminding me." I smiled at her and patted her hair. "Good night, baby. I love you." "Goodnight, Mummy. I love you too." She whispered as her eyes fluttered close and I kissed her head. I stared at her for a few seconds with my heart warm and fuzzy. I was so lucky to have a daughter like Tiffany after everything that happened to me. She was a big ray of sunshine who bro

    Sebastian and I spent far much longer time than needed to get to my room, as he took me past stairs and turns that weren't needed, but I didn't complain. It wasn't like I actually needed to go to bed anyway. I was tired but not too tired. Besides, his stories were too interesting, and I wanted to spend a little more time alone with him. Something we couldn't have for the past few days because Grace clung to me just as much as she did to Tiffany. Which was nice, nice but strange. It was weird having someone act like a mother to me since my mother didn't do the job well, but it was really sweet. And made me guilty for lying to her. "So I guess I have to go to bed now." I said as we stopped at the door. I didn't want him to go but if I dared invite him inside my room, I wasn't going to be able to stop myself from kissing him and doing more. "I guess you do. Good night, Aurora." Sebastian replied but didn't move. "Um... Thanks for walking me to my room." I smiled, and musterin
