Dinner finally wrapped up.
Gavin held Felicia’s hand as they stepped out of the restaurant. As soon as they were outside, he turned to her with a hopeful smile. “Want to go back inside for a while?”
Felicia slipped her hand out of his and started walking ahead. “I should head home.”
Gavin just grinned and caught up with her, matching her pace.
He drove her back. When they got to the house, only Luke was home. Jeremy and the others hadn’t come back yet.
Luke noticed the bouquet of roses in her arms. His brow furrowed. “Who gave you those?”
“Gavin,” Felicia answered.
Luke already knew she’d never say yes to Gavin, but he still couldn’t help himself. “Why’d he give you flowers?”
Felicia shrugged. “Just for fun, I guess.”
Luke let it go and didn’t ask any more.
Felicia’s phone buzzed. She glanced down. Max was calling.
Luke caught the hesitation on her face. “Is that Max?”
Felicia nodded. She took a breath, then picked up, her voice calm and flat. “Hello?”
Max’s deep voice came through, his tone as cold and bossy as ever. “Have you decided when you’re coming back?”
“I’ve got my own plans,” Felicia replied.
Silence stretched out between them.
She was about to hang up when Max spoke again, his words cutting. “Don’t fool yourself into thinking Gavin is actually serious about you. Compared to the girls he’s been with, you’re nothing.”
Felicia’s grip tightened on the phone. She let out a bitter laugh. “I know exactly where I stand. You don’t need to call just to remind me. Since I’m so beneath you, why don’t we hurry up and finalize the divorce? I’m not worthy of being your spouse, right Max? Wouldn’t want to embarrass you.”
Max’s voice dropped even lower. “Felicia, I’m trying to have a real conversation with you.”

Esse livro é muito bom!...

Update please...
When is this going to end? Please update it pretty please. Thank you...
Update pls...
The story is a drag. How can they write crap like this where the female lead is like a lapdog, and the male lead is a complete trash? They use a child to blackmail the mother into staying. The female lead should not go back to the trashy male lead. I would prefer her to be with Jeremy....
Hey. Thank you for updating this novel here. Request you to update a big bulky lot of chapters please. It is such an interesting novel that 10 per day is simply not enough. Thanks again...
