They spent the rest of the afternoon exploring before taking the cable car back down the mountain. By then, Brynlee had fallen fast asleep against Finnian’s shoulder, her little cheeks flushed pink.

Finnian carried her, walking slightly ahead, while Kaia trailed a few feet behind.

The setting sun painted the sky in vivid shades of crimson, and soft tendrils of smoke drifted up from the chimneys of the hillside chalets.

“Kaia!” Finnian called out abruptly, coming to a halt.

Kaia stepped up and looked at him expectantly.

“I shouldn’t have spoken to Mr. Quinn the way I did yesterday. I apologize,” Finnian said out of nowhere.

Kaia blinked, momentarily thrown off guard.

On the drive back to the hotel, Kaia claimed the passenger seat, leaving Finnian to sit in the back with the sleeping Brynlee.

And Josephine was absolutely ruthless. She had purposely orchestrated this while Finnian was out of the country, forcing Noelle into the arms of a divorced second-hand prize.
