Chapter 2

Early the next morning, Grace got up on time. She quickly got ready and headed to Dessert Tryst, surprised to find Antonio already there.

Usually, his mornings were reserved for the gym, and he’d only show up around lunchtime.

As she passed by his office, she overheard him on the phone. “I want a big riverside apartment, ASAP,” he said, his voice barely containing his excitement.

“Oh, he’s eager to get Janelle a place,” Grace thought.

The next moment, she bumped into Antonio as he walked out of the office, his smile still fresh from the call..

He smiled, as if relieved. “Great, or it would’ve ruined the surprise.”
