Serenity was frustrated. She had hoped things would go differently, but realistically, she knew her mother wouldn’t take her decision well. If anything, Serenity doubted that even explaining her true reasons for leaving would get Valerie’s approval. She packed a small suitcase with a few changes of clothes, determined to leave before her mother returned home. However, her plan was thwarted when she ran into her parents walking into the foyer together.

Marcus was carrying bags with the café logo from earlier, clearly containing her mother’s favorite desserts. The sight confused Serenity. They were supposed to be divorced and just a short while ago, they’d been arguing.

“Serenity, what’s with the suitcase?” Marcus asked, his tone serious as his gaze fixed on her.

“Dad, like I said, I’m moving out,” Serenity replied, matching his gaze with equal intensity.

Marcus hated that look–that look Serenity gave him when she was angry. He’d seen it in her since she was a child, and for some reason, it always bothered him. Now he understood why. It was the same look Maximus gave. “Serenity,” Valerie said gently, stepping forward. “Your father and I talked, and he explained why you want to leave. I know I can’t stop you, but I’d like to talk with you first.”
