"Thanks for having us over, Bella," Evelyn said, hugging her friend tightly. "We needed this."Bella smiled and hugged her back. "Anytime, Eve. You're always welcome here."Jackson, who was busy buckling the twins into their car seats, looked up and smiled. "Yeah, thanks for the food and the company. We'll have to do it again soon."As they drove away, Bella watched them go with a sense of gratitude. She was lucky to have friends like Evelyn and Jackson, who had been with her through thick and thin.She turned to Jason, who was still playing with Aaron on the living room floor. "Thanks for staying and playing with Aaron," she said, smiling. "He really enjoys spending time with you."Jason looked up and smiled back. "I enjoy spending time with him too," he said. "He's a great kid." she smiled.*******************************Bella couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt and uncertainty as she thought about her conversation with Evan earlier that morning.

Aaron looked up at Evan with curious eyes. "Daddy, where have you been?"Evan took a deep breath, choosing his words carefully. "I've been away for a while, buddy. For my work."Bella came with a cup of coffee and sat in front of him."Today I had so much fun with Jason; we play superhero," Aaron excitedly said."I wish I could play with you too," Aaron said , and Bella and Evan look at each other. He had been without his father for a long time; still, he never behaved like this, but since he knew about Evan, he only wanted to spend time with him.Evan's eyes met Bella's, and for a moment, they just looked at each other, the tension between them palpable. Then Evan turned back to Aaron, a smile on his face. "I'd love to play superhero with you, buddy! Maybe we can even create our own superhero together."Aaron's face lit up, and he started bouncing up and down in his seat. "Yeah! Yeah! That would be so much fun!"Evan and Aaron continued to talk about superheroes. Bella got up and wal

Bella walked closer, her eyes locked on his, and handed him a cup. Their fingers touched briefly as he took the cup from her, sending a spark of electricity through his body.They stood there in comfortable silence for a moment, sipping their coffee and looking out at the night sky. The tension between them was palpable, but it was no longer laced with anger or resentment. Instead, it was filled with a sense of possibility, of what could be.Evan broke the silence, his voice low and husky. "Thanks for tonight, Bella. For letting me spend time with Aaron, for...everything.""No matter what the situation is, you are his father, and I cannot deny that even if I want to and Aaron loves you, he has accepted you, and I will not be able to change that."Evan's eyes dropped, his gaze falling to the floor as he processed Bella's words. He felt a mix of emotions: gratitude, relief, and a deep sense of responsibility. He knew he didn't deserve Bella's understanding, not after everything he had p

Bella was so busy today, she barely had time to catch her breath. Her meeting had run longer than expected, and she had a mountain of paperwork to get through. She was grateful that Evan had taken Aaron to school; it had been a huge help.As she sat at her desk, typing away on her computer, her mind kept wandering back to Evan. She had seen the way he was with Aaron, so patient and loving. It was clear that he was trying to make amends, to be a good father.Bella looked at her watch and groaned inwardly. She was running late, and she still had so much work to do. She couldn't possibly leave now to pick up Aaron from school.She quickly dialed Evelyn's number, hoping her friend would be available to help out. "Hey, Evelyn. I'm in a bind. I've got a ton of work to do, and I won't be able to pick up Aaron from school on time. Would you be able to grab him for me?"Evelyn's voice was warm and reassuring on the other end of the line. "Of course, Bella! I'd be happy to help. Don't worry, I'

Evan's eyes widened in shock as Bella burst into the meeting room, her appearance a stark contrast to her usual composed self. Her hair was disheveled, her eyes red and puffy from crying, and her face was etched with worry and fear."Bella, what's wrong?" Evan asked, immediately standing up from his seat and moving towards her.The meeting attendees turned to stare, sensing the urgency and distress emanating from Bella."It's Aaron," Bella choked out, her voice trembling. "He's gone. Adrian took him. All this happened because of you; why did you come into my life?" she shouted.Evan's face contorted in anguish as Bella's words cut deep. He felt a wave of guilt and regret wash over him, knowing that his past mistakes had led to this moment."Bella, I..." Evan started to say, but Bella's anger and pain boiled over, silencing him."You and your family have brought nothing but trouble into my life!" Bella exclaimed, her voice echoing off the walls. "First, your brother disappears, and now

"Where are we going?" Aaron innocently questioned Adrian as he made his way toward a building. Through the bushes with him"We're going on an adventure, kiddo," Adrian replied, his voice dripping with false sincerity. "A special place, just for us. You'll see."Aaron looked around, his eyes wide with curiosity. "But where's Mommy and Daddy?"Adrian's smile faltered for a moment before he regained his composure. "They're busy, Aaron. But don't worry; you're safe with me. I'm your uncle, remember?"Aaron nodded, but his eyes still held a hint of uncertainty. Adrian quickened his pace, pulling Aaron through the bushes toward the abandoned factory.As they approached the entrance, Aaron's grip on Adrian's hand tightened. "I don't like this place, Uncle Adrian. It looks scary."Adrian's laughter sent chills down Aaron's spine. "Oh, it's just an old building, kiddo. Nothing to be afraid of. Come on, let's go inside."With that, Adrian pushed open the creaky door and pulled Aaron into the da

With a heavy sigh, Evan started the car, the engine roaring to life. He knew he had to act to make things right and to save Aaron from Adrian's clutches. The journey ahead would be difficult, but Evan was determined to face it head-on.As he pulled out of the driveway, Evan's phone buzzed again. He hesitated, wondering if he should answer, but something compelled him to pick up."Hello?" he said, his voice firm."We have received some important information. Someone helped Adrian escape from prison."Evan's grip on the wheel tightened. "I'm listening.""Karen"His blood boiled as soon as he heard her name, so she also played a part in Adrian's escape. or I was seeing just surface, not beneath; was all this her plan? He asked himself.Evan's mind raced with questions and doubts as he heard Karen's name. He had suspected her involvement, but to have it confirmed was a different story altogether."How deep is her involvement?" Evan asked, his voice firm, trying to keep his emotions in che

Ven stepped forward, a cruel smile spreading across his face. "We've been waiting for this moment for a long time, Karen. You're going to regret ever crossing us."The men moved in, their faces expressionless, and began to prepare the devices that would extract the information from Karen. She struggled against her restraints, but they were too tight."Just tell me where he took Aaron; I promise they won't hurt you more." Evan said.Evan's expression remained unyielding, but his voice took on a slightly softer tone. "Just tell me where Adrian took Aaron, and it will all be over."Karen's eyes, though blinded, seemed to bore into Evan's soul as she smiled, a cold, calculated smile."Kill me, but I won't say anything," she repeated, her voice firm and resolute. "And if you kill me, you'll never find Aaron. You'll never know where Adrian is hiding him."Evan's face twisted in rage, his eyes blazing with fury. He took a step closer to Karen, his fists clenched."You're willing to die for h

Jason handed him a tissue, and Aaron blew his nose, his eyes red and puffy."I hate him," Aaron whispered, his voice trembling.Jason's expression was understanding. "I know, buddy.

I just want him to leave me alone."Jason's grip on Aaron tightened. "I understand, buddy. You don't have to see him if you don't want to. But just know that he's trying to make amends, okay?"Aaron pulled ba

"I just... saw someone yesterday. Someone from my past."Sarah's eyes narrowed. "Who?"Evan hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. "Just someone I used to know. It brought up some old memories, that's all."Sarah's grip on his arm tightened. "Evan, you can tell me. What's going on?"Evan looked at her, his eyes searching for reassurance. "I promise, it's nothing to worry about. Just old ghosts, okay?"Sarah studied his face, then nodded. "Okay. But if you ever want to talk, I'm here."Evan smiled, relief washing over him.
