Felicia sat in the car, reading through the agreement in her hands. Her eyes slowly darkened. So this was where things had ended up.
Max, you better keep this up for real.
She slipped the agreement into her purse and headed back to the office. As soon as she walked in, Savannah found her and asked if she could come along to a blind date.
It looked like Savannah had finally given up fighting. Years of stubborn resistance, and for what? She couldn’t even remember why she cared so much anymore. So for this latest setup from her family, she decided to just go with the flow and meet the guy called Chris.
He was from Northwick. They’d chatted online for a while, exchanged a few photos. Felicia had seen his photo too. Sure, he wasn’t anything like Darin with that top-tier charisma and looks, but compared to most guys, he was still a solid catch.
The guy seemed really into Savannah. He’d sent her a bunch of thoughtful gifts and was always checking in on her. At first, Savannah had wanted nothing to do with him, but in the end, she made herself give it a chance.
Tonight, he was in the Capital and had invited her to dinner to finally meet in person. He was two years younger than Savannah and was already starting to take over his family’s business.
“I’ll go with you. It’ll feel less weird with three people,” Felicia offered.
Savannah just shrugged. “Nothing weird about it. I actually need you there to help me size him up.”
That night, Felicia and Savannah went to the restaurant. Jeremy tagged along, too.
Savannah’s parents, Finley and Joy, were getting impatient about her being single. Finley had even asked Jeremy to give her a little push. When he heard about the date, Finley called Jeremy ahead of time, asking him to keep an eye on things and make sure Savannah didn’t blow it again.
So Jeremy and Felicia arrived after Savannah and took a seat on a sofa across from her table.
They ordered their food.
Felicia let out a short laugh. “Trey is just using Yara to guilt Heather. Men are all the same.”
Honestly, Max wasn’t any different.
“There’s no way they’re getting back together. Even if Heather wanted to, I’d never let her remarry Trey. Yara’s just a kid. She’ll understand when she gets older,” Jeremy said.
Felicia nodded. “It’s probably better if Yara doesn’t see Trey too much. Otherwise, he’ll just fill her head with stuff, and Yara will get too attached to him. They’re divorced. She can’t depend on him like she used to.”
She was worried that if things kept going like this, Heather would never get the chance to move on.
Even after divorce, it seemed like having a child made it impossible for Heather to really break free from Trey.

Is this coming to an end...
Oh nooo!! Don’t tell me Max will get washed ashore on a remote island then loses all his memory, then falls inlove with the local girl who saves him. Then when he meets Felicia again he won’t recognize her and breaks her heart again. Additional plot twist is that Felicia is pregnant with their 2nd child. Please pleaseee don’t give us this scenario.. LOL!!!...
If Max can be forgiven Darrin can be forgiven. And I do not like this marriage business but if it has to happen I hope after he gets stranded on some remote island alone while Felicia and his family fight over custody she wins and also gets half his estate. Then by time he comes back she's found having and remarried. Lol...
The writer is good. They're making me interested in Max. I won't say like yet....
It seems the only one who hasn't suffered is Max. Even his family fakes anger and disappointment all their own doing so they suffer a little. Everyone else has suffered. Luke and Jeremy unrequited. Felicia has suffered the most from family to unrequited to romance to long suffering Mother. Even baby Anne never had a mother til Felicia suffered then came back only to suffer some more. lol...
Oh no what did Colton do?... I have a bone to pick. When Olisha had to go the hospital why beg for Felicia? When she so loved Max? Seemed like she was in on the setup for Felicia to see a suicide for the 2nd time orchestrated by holden and his brother again. I might drop this series it's becoming endless with no real satisfaction for me. I don't need it to end because it's like a soap opera but if things don't end up making sense, tying up loose storylines it's gonna get old fast for me. Good luck author....
Anne, I think your baby brother is on the way. Thank goodness it doesn't say that Felicia is crying just like the last time but still, there's no willingness on her part. Max! You need to try harder. Make her fall in love with you again....
The writer did a big one with Jeremy's speech to Max. He said almost everything that needed to be said. I have wanted Felicia or someone who knows the past to just tell that whole stinking family what they did and how disgusting they are and what they're doing now how unfair it all is to Felicia. A pity it was only Max but he really needed to hear this (plus more)....
I love the chase of this novel, how you’ve build each of the characters. They almost seem like real. I feel like I know them irl. But however I would like to know what’s max’s pov and what’s going on in his head. I truly believe max’s just a grey character. And also please please please update more!!!...
I was really hoping that Max and Felicia would end up together, but why did Max do that to Felicia? 😭 Is that his way of making Felicia overcome the trauma Holden caused her? I don't think that's helping at all. I just hope Max's character has some redeeming qualities in the coming chapters....
