It’s Jace.”“Come in,” His grandfather's voice called from inside.Jace pulled open the door and walked inside the study. His grandpa sat behind an expensive desk, his face unclear.

As Jace dialed Stephanie's number, he walked back and forth in his study, and it seemed as if the walls were closing in on him. In light of the recent discoveries, his mind was a storm of contradictory feelings, and he was still reeling from it. The phone rang twice before she finally picked it up."Jace?" The tone of Stephanie's voice was cautious and guarded.The first thing that Jace said was, "Stephanie, I just got back from the hospital," and he struggled to keep his voice steady. "I went in for some examinations... The findings, on the other hand, were significantly different from what we had been informed in New York.A pause occurred on the other end of the line. "What do you mean?" Stephanie's voice had a worried edge to it."The tests," Jace repeated, fury building up. "They stated I can father children. I'm not infertile."Stephanie's quiet was apparent.

Chapter OneHundredFiftyFour

The fact that Marvy had invaded his space, in addition to the presence of his family, was nearly too much for Jace to stomach. He cast a look in the direction of Avalynn, whose expression was one of bewilderment and pain. As he did so, he had a twinge of remorse in his chest.He started by saying, "Avalynn," with a strained tone in his voice, "I can explain.""Explain?" The tone of Avalynn's voice conveyed a mixture of rage and astonishment. "What is there to explain, Jace?"It was Marvy's sarcastic chuckle that broke the tension in the room. Oh, this is just irreplaceable. Do you really believe that you could maintain your little farce for an indefinite amount of time, Jace?Linda moved closer, her eyes glinting with delight. "We all have obligations, Jace. It's time you confronted yours."Jace glanced to his grandpa, Robert, who stood still, his gaze grim. "Grandfather, this isn't what you think," Jace implored, desperation seeping into his voice. "Marvy and I... we aren't together

Chapter OneHundredFiftyFive

With the circumstances weighing heavily on him, Jace watched Linda go. He felt as though he was drowning, ensnared by his family's high expectations and the terrible reality of what had just happened. The door shut behind them, and an engulfing silence descended upon the house that seemed to reflect the void in his heart. The estate's expensive furnishings and exquisite design, along with its grandeur, made him feel as though he was being held captive in a life he had no idea existed.With his heart pounding in his chest, Jace ran after Avalynn, disobeying his family's demands. Normally a haven of safety, the mansion appeared to be a labyrinth of his own transgressions and betrayals.He found her nowhere in their bedroom, the bed they now shared a mockery of their former intimacy. He ran along the corridors, each foot ringing like a countdown to the death of everything he held dear, desperation stabbing at him. He strolled to the room she had occupied before, a haven that still h

The night bar, 'Purple Haze', was buzzing with energy. Low lights cast a soft glow over the intimate setting, the tinkling of glasses and hushed conversations creating a background melody.Avalynn and Lisa found a secluded booth towards the back, the plush seating and velvety walls creating just the comfort they wanted. "This is nice," Avalynn said softly as she observed the ambience."Nice?" Lisa arched an eyebrow while grinning playfully. "Hey, this is just great.With enthusiasm in her voice, Lisa went on, "We've got our own private corner, plenty of eye candy, and a killer live band about to start their set." "And here's the kicker.. the bartender is absolutely gorgeous."When Avalynn turned to face the bar and saw the bartender Lisa had been mentioning, her eyes became wild. Alright, you're correct.
