Chapter 158.
Letty and Corrine were supposed to be arriving in the next few minutes, but 1 couldn’t
calm down. To be honest, I don’t even know why the hell I was so nervous,
“Ava, should I prepare the drinks and snacks for your guests?” Teresa’asks, stepping into
the living room.
I nod my head. “Yes, that will be great, thank you,”
Iris was soundly asleep in her bassinet, Noah was at school, and Rowan was at work.
I sigh in frustration. Noah was still pretty pis sed at me for forcing him to invite Sierra to
his birthday party. He wasn’t even talking to me. Whenever I asked him a question or
talked to him, he would just glare at me.
His behavior and attitude just pis ses me off even more. I get he doesn’t like the girl, but
refusing to invite her while everyone else comes to his party is downright cruel, I refuse to
have a hateful son. Besides, he doesn’t even have to talk to or interact with her. I’m sure

I take a seat on the floor and cross my legs. My mind moves on to Rowan. He was the
other bane of my existence. Maybe I am stu pid or maybe I am delusional, but I decided to
give him the chance he asked for. Rowan has never begged in his life, so this must be
important.
Hate me or love me, but I’m going to hold off the need to know the truth until I can’t
anymore. Right now, I just want to enjoy this life blissfully before things crumble, because,
trust me, I know that once my memory returns, this perfect illusion will crumble.
“Ma’am?” His voice startles me, and I look up at Morris, one of the guards hired by Rowan.
I’ve made it a point to know the names of everyone who works for us.
“Yes?”
“I wanted to inform you that you have some guests.”
I give him a small smile and say, “Thank you, Morris, and let them in.”
He nods his head and leaves. Taking a deep breath, I try to calm my beating heart, and I
stand up. I feel the need to start pacing; instead, I force myself to sit down and relax.
Seconds later, Letty and Corrine walk in. Letty wore a white and black off-shoulder pair of
shorts, and sneakers. It made her look young for her age. Corrine, on the other hand, wore
a cream vintage t-shirt, a pair of blue jeans, and nude wedge heels.

“Hi!” I greet sheepishly, standing up.

I wasn’t really sure what to do. Should I shake their hands? Should I hug them? Did I want
to hug them?
Before I can decide what to do, Corrine rushes to me and envelops me in a hug. Seconds
later, Letty joins, making it a group hug.
“Da mn, I’ve missed you so much, Ava,” Corrine whispers in my ear, emotions clogging
her voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI don’t say anything. Just hug them back. In my current state, I didn’t really know them,
but deep down, my heart and soul just connected with them. I can’t explain it. I just knew
that they were my people.
Our moment is interrupted by Iris loud wails. We step away from each other as we all
chuckled. I move and get her from the bassinet. She immediately quiets down, but now
she was wide awake.
“My niece,” Letty squeals, taking her from my hand and peppering her face with kisses
Iris’s eyes widen, and I’m afraid that she’s about to cry, but she doesn’t. She just stares at
her as if she was a specimen she was studying.

We take a seat just as Teresa arrives with drinks and snacks. After greeting my two friends,
she leaves us to our own devices.
“Da mn girl, you know how to choose good genes for your babies. First, Noah. We all know
that boy is going to be as good-looking as his father. He will be giving a lot of girls
sleepless nights… And now, Iris, she’s going to be drop-dead gorgeous, especially with her
blue eyes; they’re hypnotizing just like Ethan’s.” Letty breaks the silence.
I just chuckle because I know it’s the d amn truth. My kids were gorgeous; there was no
denying that.
