Chapter 142 Sienna's Pov“Daphne, what are you doing so early on a Saturday morning?” I asked, my voice sharp as I walked into the living room. There she was, sitting on the floor with David in front of the television, a stack of board game pieces scattered between them. “I’m the one disturbing him, Mommy!” Daphne exclaimed, a mischievous grin on her face. David chuckled. “And I let her,” he admitted, holding up his hands in mock surrender. I pinched the bridge of my nose, trying to contain my frustration. “Daphne, go get dressed. And David, we need to talk.” Daphne groaned, but she complied, skipping off to her room. I motioned for David to follow me into the kitchen. “David,” I began, crossing my arms as I faced him. “I appreciate how kind you are to Daphne, but she needs to learn boundaries. You’re spoiling her.” David raised an eyebrow. “Sienna, she’s just a kid. Let her have fun.” “Fun is fine,” I replied, my tone firm. “But discipline is important too. She’s not g

Chapter 144Sienna’s Pov“You are admired beyond measure, and I’m deeply sorry for everything I’ve done to hurt you,” the message read. Along with it came a box of expensive chocolates, a delicate bracelet, and a handwritten letter. I sighed, setting the gifts on the counter. “Lucas,” I muttered to myself. Who else would send such a message? Still, I brushed it off, refusing to let it distract me. I had more pressing matters at hand, packing for the vacation. I called David as I zipped up Daphne’s bag. “We’re all set,” I told him. “Great,” he said, his voice warm. “I’ll pick you both up soon.” But as I ended the call, another thought crossed my mind. If David and Ryan could just get along, this trip might actually be enjoyable. Against my better judgment, I picked up the phone and called Ryan too. “Ryan,” I began, “I was wondering if you’d like to come on the trip with us. Daphne would love to see you.” There was a pause on the other end before he answered. “Of course. If

Chapter 146 Lucas's Pov“Lucas…” Her voice was soft, almost like a whisper, as she turned slightly in her sleep. I froze, standing at the edge of the bed in Sienna’s room, watching her closely. She was fast asleep, her face peaceful yet slightly flushed from exhaustion. Hearing my name again stirred something deep inside me. This was the second time she’d murmured it, the first when we were at the bar. I leaned closer, careful not to wake her, wondering if it was my imagination. “Sienna…” I whispered back, but she didn’t stir. She shifted again, her lips moving faintly, and my name escaped her lips once more. My chest tightened, and I pulled back. As much as I wanted to be near her, I wouldn’t let it look like I was taking advantage of her in such a vulnerable state. I sighed deeply, brushing a hand through my hair. “This is not the right time, Lucas.”Leaving her room, I found David nearby, pacing anxiously in the hallway. “She’s still asleep,” I said quietly. “I need to

Chapter 148 Lucas’s Pov"Jenny, you’re okay with taking Daphne out, right?" I asked over the phone, my tone light but distracted. “Of course! Daphne’s adorable,” Jenny responded cheerfully. “I’ll be there in fifteen minutes.” I sighed, trying to shake off the lingering annoyance that Lisa’s recent actions had left behind. I already sent her packing, and honestly, I didn’t have the energy to dwell on it. Right now, all that mattered was spending time with Daphne and enjoying the rare peace I had made with Sienna, even if it was fragile. When Jenny arrived, Daphne’s face lit up. “Aunt Jenny!” she squealed, running into her arms. I chuckled at her excitement and helped Daphne into the car. Jenny settled into the passenger seat, chatting animatedly with Daphne while I drove. I felt a faint sense of relief watching them. Maybe things could be normal, even if just for a day. We decided on a park near a popular cafe for our outing. Daphne couldn’t wait to play, so I carried her t

Chapter 150 Lucas’s PovI sat across from Jenny, her sharp eyes scanning my face as I sipped the last of my whiskey. She had been quiet for a while, waiting for me to explain why I looked so distracted. Finally, I sighed and spoke. “I’m not even sure if I still love her,” I admitted, leaning back in my chair. “But I’m sure of one thing; I’m falling for her again. It’s like…I can’t let go. I don’t want to. It’s all I know right now, and I’m holding onto it.” Jenny smirked, setting her glass down. “Well, Lucas, that’s progress. It’s about time you figured out what you want. But I’m guessing this revelation doesn’t make things any easier.” “No,” I said, shaking my head. “Not at all. But I know what I have to do now.” Jenny nodded, her expression softening. “Then go after it. Just remember, you’re not the same man you were. She’s not the same woman either.” We left soon after, her words replaying in my head like a mantra. When I got home, the silence hit me harder than usual. T
