Chapter 0291

I was in the kitchen contemplating what to do about the Emma issue. Travis left a few hours ago after he basically begged the entire time. It was now four, and I expected Noah to come home anytime now. Rowan would be home at five or six, so I still had time to think.

Emma and I never really saw eye–to–eye. Mostly because I was jealous she had the guy I wanted. She used to mainly ignore me and behave like I didn’t exist. The only time she was violent and hostile towards

me was after she found out Rowan and I slept together.

I don’t blame her, though. I would have reacted in the same manner. So I’ve never really held a grudge for the way she treated me after she found out the truth. This new Emma, though, is different. I honestly don’t understand if her heartbreak drove her to become this way or if something else happened along the way. 2

Travis, on the other hand, has always been hostile. His snide remarks and his angry and disgusted gazes,

not to mention how he would literally go out of his way to emotionally hurt me.

All these make me question whether I should help him or not. I mean, does he even have any right to ask

this of me? And would it be cruel or selfish of me if I didn’t talk to Rowan on their behalf? It’s not like I

owe them anything in any case.

A frustrated scream, followed by a loud bang, pulls me from my thoughts. I get down from the bar stool,

leaving my half–eaten bowl of ice cream, and rush to the living room.

I’m surprised to find Noah, who looked as if he was about to murder someone.

Throwing his bag pack angrily on the sofa, he lets out yet another growl filled with anger and frustration.

“What is it, my love?” I ask gently while approaching him cautiously. “What’s got you so angry?”

He looks up at me. I see the fire burning behind grey eyes that are similar to his dad. Noah is chilled, and

nothing ever fazes the boy. So whatever made him angry must be pretty significant.

“It’s that girl again!” he yells and starts pacing.

“What girl?”
