Charlotte's pov I couldn't move around properly in Tyler's new house as Ava had fully moved her things to her father's house. It has been three days of her presence, three days without intimacy and three days of proper distancing and whenever Tyler wasn't around, all Ava and I always discussed was her dad's mysterious lady that she wants to know. Tyler in the order hand was trying all means to have some private time with me. When Tyler noticed that Ava was in the room taking her bath, he quickly came to my room. And since Ava had been finding a way to know the woman her dad brought home that day, whenever Tyler came close to me, my heart raced. “What are you doing here? Ava is around. I have told you, you shouldn't come close to me whenever she is around,” I said with a low voice despite Ava's room being a bit far away. “When will that be? How long will you keep me waiting? Ava has always been with you.” He asked. “She is monitoring you. How many times will I tell you?”

Author's pov “When did that lady come to my room? When?” Tyler kept asking himself as he watched Charlotte entering the bar and he could hear the sound of heavy music popping out of the bar. “What has gone over Charlotte? Am I dreaming? No, I'm not.” He got into his car and rested his head against the headrest. “...all I know was that a lady came,” he paused and he tried to remember what transpired. “Let me go home, probably my sitting room will help me remember what happened.” He thought, and started his car and drove home. Still, as he was driving home, he took his phone and called Charlotte, but each time, Charlotte continuously rejected his calls. When he got home, he came out of his car and entered his house and stopped at the sitting room. Then he stared at the door. “Yes! A lady came.” He closed his eyes and opened it. “Yes!” He nodded his head, “I opened the door and she entered. She said her name was Sonia. I remembered that. She came in,” and Tyler demonstra

Charlotte's pov What have I done to myself? I didn't even give Tyler a chance to explain his side of the story. Does this mean I don't trust him? But it wasn't my fault. I saw him with that woman on the bed, who else should I believe? If it wasn't for Ava, who kept informing me about her mom's plan, my relationship with Tyler would have ended. The moment I get home, I need to find an opportunity to apologize to Tyler. I have to tell him that I'm sorry for the way I treated him, even when he followed me to the bar and made an effort to make me believe him. Still, I abandoned him and went into the bar and I was already feeling I had broken up with him. While thinking about how to reconcile with Tyler, I also reflected on how I treated Ava. Is there a way to tell her about the DNA test results? Every time I look at her, she seems like a lost child to me. I must find a way to tell her. If I don't, my conscience will continue to trouble me. In our relationship, she has shown more faith

Ava's pov What is Charlotte's bra doing in my dad's room? I hope it's not what I'm thinking. I tapped my index fingers together after letting the bra fall down. I picked it up again and tried to gather my thoughts, hoping to avoid going crazy. But the more I tried, the more I could hear my mom's voice accusing Charlotte of having an affair with my dad. Could my mom's words be true? Has my dad been sleeping with Charlotte? I moved away from my initial position and walked closer to the window, looking at the bra. "No, no," I said aloud without realizing it. "I don't want to believe what I'm thinking. No, no." I shook my head. "This is a serious matter. It would be better for me to secretly investigate behind their backs before concluding." I walked towards the bra, picked it up, and tried to think back to any scenarios where I saw my dad and Charlotte in a suspicious position. I couldn't recall any. Does that mean they perfected their relationship without me noticing? Whenev

Charlotte's pov I'm thankful deep down that Ava left the house, but I feel sorry for the way she left, probably because her boyfriend did something annoying to her again. I was scared for the first time. I was apprehensive from yesterday until Ava first left because I wanted to please Tyler. I even went as far as telling Ava about the stranger in bed with me, but little did she know, I was actually describing how her dad held me down until it was dark outside. Tyler had never been so drunk before, and I suspected he may have added some drugs to his wine. He took me from one level of excitement to another. What would have happened if I hadn't gone to meet him at the bar yesterday? Would he have slept with a random woman because he was upset? He probably would have. All he needed was a woman to sleep with him. I had to disobey Ava and salvage my relationship. I love Tyler, and I was afraid of how the public and especially Ava would react. Everything Tyler did felt strange to me. H
