“No,” she told me, her tone softening. “Honestly, I wanted to hang out with you, because I wanted to talk. I needed someone to talk to and I need to reassure myself that it’s all in

head.”
She bit her lower lip and stared at her hands.
“Not here,” she finally said after a brief silence. “Let’s just enjoy the evening first. We can talk when we grab dinner.”
I stare at her for a moment longer before relenting. If she didn’t want to talk right now, then we weren’t going to talk right now. She wanted to take her mind off things and ease her discomfort.
30 minutes later, we arrived in the busy city. Leroy parked the car in front of one of the department stores. He didn’t get out with us as I expected him to, but the guards in the car behind us did get out after they parked. They were wearing casual clothing, but their weapons were clearly hidden beneath their outfits. They were also trying to not make it obvious that they were following us.
I appreciated the effort, but I doubted that mattered to Irene. She was still upset that they were there. “Let’s go into this store,” she said, pointing at one of the high–end boutiques. I’ve only ever walked by this store in the past. Even when my family had money, I never dared walk in here. I wasn’t surprised that this was the first store that Irene wanted to check out though and I wasn’t going to argue with her, so I quickly followed her into the boutique.
“Pick out anything you’d like,” she told me from over her shoulder. “It’s on me.”
“You really don’t have to buy me anything,” I told her, but she was already around the corner and disappeared in a rack of designer clothing.
I sighed and glanced around at all the beautiful outfits and dresses. These were all too fancy for my taste. I slowly made my way around the boutique, wondering what it must be like for Irene who could come here whenever she wanted and buy whatever she wanted. It must be nice to live like that and never worry about money. Being a Landry, she never had to work a day in her life. Everything would always be handed to her.
I walked by the jewelry counter and noticed all the gorgeous designs on display. One in particular caught my eye; it was a necklace with a ruby pendant and a pure cold chain. There were clusters of diamonds around the ruby that made it sparkle under the illuminating light. It was the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen, and I found myself drawn to it.
I reached out to touch the ruby with my fingertips but the black box that held the piece was immediately slammed shut, I managed to pull my fingers away before they were hurt and I looked up at the furious woman that stood before me.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing??” She asked through her teeth.
My heart hammered wildly in my chest.
“I was just looking-”
Chapter 0093
A tall man, wearing a nice suit and black designer glasses, walked out from behind the counter. The woman sneered at me and her lip curled in disgust.
“She almost ruined the Emily Wonton designer ruby necklace,” the woman hissed.
The man looked at me, sizing me up from my toes to my head and his eyes narrowed.
“Do you have any idea how expensive that necklace is” He asked. “I’m the manager of this boutique and I made the rule that anyone who can’t afford my product wasn’t allowed in here. If you aren’t going to make a purchase, then I suggest you leave.”
“Look at her; she can’t afford anything here,” the woman shickered. “She’s pathetic. I’ll have security throw her out immediately, sir.”
“No need to get security,” a familiar voice said from behind me. “I’m sure we can talk this out like adults.”

Anyone have suggestions for other books like this that are captivating for me to read while I wait for more chapters etc?...
Despite everyone's frustrations with this book, I think it's quite entertaining. I think Gavin and Judy have a long road ahead of them. If/when they're able to finally get on the same page, they still have to deal with his mom. Not to mention Judy has to reconcile with Matthew after abandoning him when she promised she wouldn't; and face Irene with the news that she's carrying a new sibling. Lol, Levi is the least of their concerns. Then there's having the baby. Pretty sure Gavin has untreated trauma associated with Irene's birth. My thoughts are, just be patient, find other books to read in between and enjoy the ride. I think it'll be good....
Anyone Know where we Can Read all of this book 2 chapters a day is a joke And waiting is killing me I’ll just want to end this book !!...
I never really read these books, but came across this one and annoyingly got hooked. Do these books just go on forever with no resolution? As if so, I’m going to call it a day and write my own ending lol...
Lovely… I just found this book Friday and I’ve finished all that here. How often do they release more and how much at a time?! I’m invested....
So Spencer was “in love” before he even meet her? I used to wake up and read this book but now I let days go past before I read the chapters...
