Chapter 40
Caleb POV:
I was so excited to go home. I had finally gotten some time off work and immediately decided to go home. I had not gotten a long break since I came back from the wedding so when I got a four-day weekend, I booked my ticket to Arizona immediately. I could not believe that I had gone for almost two months without seeing my dad. That rarely ever happened.
Eric, Dad, and I were pretty close and got even closer after the divorce. Sometimes I envied Eric because he got to stay home. I knew that if the opportunity presented itself, I would move to Arizona permanently. I hated being away from my family but I had my own life outside of them now. Things had been going well for me.
I was up for a promotion at work, and my relationship with Brianna was thriving. I couldn’t be happie

Victoria POV:It had been two weeks since I officially moved back to Sedona. I had put all my furniture into a strange facility because I knew that I would need them once I moved back out of Stallone's guest house. I was sad about leaving the life that I had built for myself in Phoenix but I was even more excited for the new possibilities that had opened up for me in Sedona. I had already secured the job at Mrs. Pullman’s bakery. The pay was just a little less than what I was getting at La Grande and this time, I wasn’t going to be spending any of that money on rent or keeping a grown man fed so I took it immediately and so far, it had been a blast. I was catering to myself and my needs first.It also didn’t hurt that my mom and Alice were so close by. I got to see them whenever I wanted and it had been such a huge blessing. They helped me to settle down and validated my decision which I desperately needed. When mom mentioned that they were having a family dinner because Caleb was co

Caleb POV:I looked at Victoria in shock after her outburst. I refused to believe what she had just told me about Brianna. I tried reconciling it with the Brianna I knew and loved and none of it made sense. “You’re lying. You have to be lying. She is nothing like that. Do you really think I would have gone for all these years without noticing?” I asked her. She shook her head in disbelief and scoffed. “Tell me Caleb, what would I have to gain by making this up,” she asked.I couldn’t think of a reason why she would make up that lie and it scared me. I knew Victoria or at least I used to. She would not lie about such a serious accusation, especially one that had such serious repercussions if she wasn’t completely sure. If this was true then it meant that I didn’t really know the person that I was planning to marry and it would mean that I would need to reconsider everything.“I don’t know but why should I believe you? You are giving me just your side of the story. How do I know that

Victoria POVI watched him as he walked out of the house. I slammed the door shut immediately he stepped out of the house and leaned my back on it. I knew that he was still standing there because I could see his shadow from under the door. I took several deep breaths to calm myself down. I was feeling a lot of emotions.I was angry at him for not believing me and thought that I would make up a lie like that just to spite. I was angry because I thought that it would mean more to him when he finally found out the true reason why we ‘broke up’. But underneath all that I was sad. His last words rang in my mind.“It wouldn’t be fair for me to just judge her based on what you believe happened. She’s my fiancé.”“What do I believe happened?” I said out loud in utter disbelief.He really didn’t believe me. He thought that I was just making up a spiteful story about his fiancé. Why was he so blind to the truth? It was right in front of him, all he had to do was open his eyes to it. I felt a we

Caleb POVIt was my last day in Sedona before I had to travel back to Los Angeles and just like the first night I arrived home, a family dinner was thrown before my flight later that night. There was no real reason for it or occasion to celebrate, my family just liked to meet together. Just like last time, Victoria was notably absent. This time, it was Gloria who asked where she Was and surprisingly, my dad gave the answer.“I bumped into her when I was running errands in town. She sends her apologies, she won’t be able to come for this dinner.”“Did she say why?” Melissa asked, sounding rather disappointed.I was actually surprised that Tori had not filled her mother in on everything that was going on considering how close they were.“No, but to be honest, I didn’t ask. I’m sorry darling. I could call her right now,” my father replied. He looked guilty as hell.“No, it’s fine honey, I’ll give her a ring after dinner. Don’t worry about it," Melissa replied and pecked my dad on the l

Caleb POV By the time I landed in Los Angeles, it was well past one o’clock in the morning. I could barely open my eyes by the time I got to my house. I had called Brianna before I left Arizona so I knew that I would not find her at my place when I arrived which was perfect because I needed to arrange my thoughts before I confronted her. I decided to text her before I lost my nerve. We need to talk. Come over to my place after work tomorrow. At least I had a day to arrange my thoughts and figure out how I would do this without accidentally causing the end of my relationship and engagement. I went to sleep and had to wake up five hours later to go to work. I had a rather slow day which was a relief because of how sleep-deprived I felt. I survived purely on coffee and fumes. I couldn’t wait to get home and crawl into my bed but every time I thought of the difficult conversation that lay ahead of me, I changed my mind. I left the hospital at six o'clock and got to the house thirty

Victoria POV:A week after Caleb went back to Los Angeles, I finally went back home. I had not initially intended on staying at Alice's house for so long but she and her husband Ben had been very persuasive and I had a blast with them. Ben doted on us and by the end of that week, I felt spoiled rotten. He even got me flowers. Flowers! Alice was one lucky girl.When I got home, I decided to pass by the main house to say hi to my mom. Tom went on a business trip to San Francisco that morning and would not be able to return until Saturday so this was the first night that my mom and Tom would be separated since they got married. I wanted to see how she was holding up. I walked into the house and called out for her from the foyer.She peeked her head out of the living room to see who it was. When she saw that I was me she came towards me with the magazine she was holding in one hand and pulled me into a warm hug. I was almost thirty years old but I could live in my mom’s hug forever.

Victoria POV: I have never regretted a decision so fast. It had been three weeks since I had made the decision to start dating again and all the dates had gone horribly. Today’s date was by far the worst one out of all of them. His name was Tony and he lived in Clarkdale. I had matched with him on Tinder and he messaged me immediately. We messaged back and forth for a few days on the app before he asked me on a date. He was a decent conversationalist and seemed interesting enough so I agreed. We set the date for today. We agreed to meet up for dinner in a cute café in Clarkdale, then if the date went well, we would go out for drinks after. The first thing that pissed me off was the fact he was over an hour late. If he had a pressing job like say, pediatric surgery, I would understand but he was an accountant. He worked at a bank so I knew those always closed on time so he had no excuse for his tardiness. After thirty minutes had passed, I called him to ask where he was and he told

Caleb's POVIt was a beautiful Monday morning. I had woken up that day in an excellent mood. Everything was going well for me. My shower was the most relaxing shower I had had in a while and I got ready to leave the house. There was absolutely no traffic on my way to work so I got there a lot earlier than I had anticipated.Since I had time to kill before my shift began, I decided to go to the cafeteria and actually sit down and have a proper breakfast instead of the one cup of coffee that I would usually have because I was in a rush. I ordered coffee and a croissant.My coffee had the perfect cream and sugar ration and the croissant was soft, buttery and flaky. I savoured each bite then after I was done, I went to the attending lounge. When I got there, one of my colleagues informed me that I had been summoned to the chief of surgery’s office.I was a little nervous but I had a good feeling about it. I walked to her door and knocked on it.“Come in!” she said.I walked into the tidy
