Ava was grateful to have someone like Caroline in her life, who could see through her facade and knew when to push and when to back off.One day as she was resting on the couch and watching some TV, Caroline brought her some tea and sat down to face her but she didn't say anything until Ava noticed."Is everything alright?" She asked and Caroline sighed."I'm tired of you lying to me" she said and confusion clouded Ava's face as she struggled to understand what she was talking about."Lie? What are you talking about?" She asked and Caroline let out another sigh and after a prolonged silence."I hear you crying in your room almost every night Ava yet you look me in the eye and say that you're okay each time I ask you"Ava's heart broke as she realized that Caroline had been aware of her pain all along. She had thought she was doing a good job of hiding it, but apparently she had been fooling herself more than anyone else. "I'm sorry," she said, her voice shaking. "I didn't want to bur

She felt herself travel back to the scenes as she always did when she retold the stories and the same pain she always felt in her chest started to creep up and soon she found herself crying. It was as if a dam had broken and she couldn't stop the tears from flowing. But, she also felt that sense of temporary relief that she felt when she opened up about all the pain and confusion that the events had her feeling. Dr. Jones listened patiently and attentively as she offered her a box of tissues for her to wipe her tears with which Ava collected thankfully.‘’That’s a lot to unpack Miss Ava but it’s obviously something we can work on okay?’’ the doctor said as she scribbled something on her book.‘’So I’m going to ask you a few questions. And I want you to answer all of them as honestly as you can. Is that okay?’’ she asked and Ava nodded her head as she wiped the remaining residue of tears on her face‘’Okay so my first question is, do you think that you still love this man?’’ she aske

Ethan had been missing Ava more than he cared to admit. He missed her smile, her laugh, and the way she always made sure that everything around her was put in place.He missed the way she always knew the right thing to say to make him feel better. He missed the way she always believed in him, even when he didn't believe in himself. He missed the way she made him feel like he was worth something. But, he knew that it was too late. Ava had moved on. The way she had looked at him that day at Russia was still fresh in his memory and he knew that he had to do the same but he didn't want to and he didn't even know how to.He had to find a way to move on, to forget about her and focus on getting his life back on track but if what Kimberly was saying was true then did he have a shot at getting her back to him if he tried? He shook his head at all the thoughts that filled his mind. He didn't want to start having hope when there was really nothing to hope on."I know you miss her. You're no

Alfredo was excited about the money and he could not wait to get back to the camp and swim in it literally. Things had worked out for him finally after all these years of chasing Kimberly to pay up her father's debt, a debt that was actually non existent because he had struck a deal with the Dad before he died but since he had no witness to the deal and had not told anyone about it, Alfredo had decided to extort the money from his daughter because he was in need of money critically and that was the only eat that he could get the money especially when she got married to Sir Ethan.At first, he had been scared of the marriage because it posed a threat. Sir Ethan was the nephew to Christopher's father, the overall head of the underground world. He had the power to call the shots at anytime and if he discovered what he was doing especially to someone that had become a member of his family then all hell would have broke lose but luckily for him, fate was on his side because just like he

Ethan got off the phone with his informant. He had just told him that his message had been delivered clearly to the Mafia and that within the next 48 hours that he gave them to vacate the underground world. They will all be gone and if they were still there then it will be the end of their lives but Ethan hoped they all yielded to his instructions because he really did not want to resort to violence. It was just the power he had, he was really not a violent person."We did a good job but we have to wait till 48 hours to really be sure that they'll adhere to it" he said to Jacob who was standing beside him and Jacob nodded in understanding."What did we need 48 hours to be sure of? And who is adhering to what?" Kimberly's voice rang through the room before she even entered with some snacks which she set down on the center table.Ethan sighed as he thought 'where in god's name had she come from?' She always knew how to appear out of no where."It's just a business deal we're trying to
