Sophie finished reading the letter, a soft smile spreading across her face. She could almost picture Reece as he penned those words. Late at night, with the city outside buzzing with lights and life, a mix of glitz, glamour, and mischief. But to Reece, it was all just a mess of dirt and injustice.
He must have been sitting at his desk, writing this as though it were his last goodbye, his usual cool smile firmly in place. He probably even had a hunch that they'd soon be expecting a baby. What a clever guy he was.
Sophie carefully folded the letter and the bank card, tucking them safely away. This might just be the only thing Reece left behind in this world.
Upstairs, Jenna came rushing out with little Ethan in her arms. "He peed! What am I supposed to do?"
Jenna looked genuinely flustered, not putting on an act at all. Sophie slipped the envelope into her pocket and said, "Jenna, you're going to be a mom now. Can't you try to be a bit more composed?"
"I can't stay calm! I just can't! I don't even get how he managed to wet the bed!" Jenna was on the verge of a meltdown. Being a mom was nothing like she'd imagined.
"Aren't Colby and Adler out buying diapers? Honestly, Jenna, you're lost without Adler, aren't you?" Sophie shook her head, half amused, half exasperated. Though she wasn't a mom herself, she was getting an early taste of motherhood thanks to Jenna.
"Sophie, don't you think with all the fancy tech The Silent Shadows developed, they could've come up with something to stop babies from crying? Or maybe a fast-forward button for time? They're always talking about rebirth—why not speed up time too?"

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
Excellent novel!...
