Timothy clenched his jaw as the call from his father interrupted his evening. He’d been prepared to spend the whole day with Evie, but here his father was interfering yet again. With a sigh, he answered.

“What do you want, Dad?” Timothy’s voice held a note of frustration.

Kamran’s voice, measured and composed, responded from the other end. “Timothy, we need to talk. There’s not reason we can’t still connect, even if you seem intent on pissing me off.”

Timothy scoffed, the tension evident. “Connect? We haven’t been connected in years. What could possibly be so important now?”

“Stella has reached out to me,” Kamran stated, his words hanging in the air like an unspoken accusation.

Timothy’s brow furrowed. “Stella? What does she want?”

Kamran paused, choosing his words carefully. “Come to my office, Timothy. There’s something important we

need to discuss. And leave your attitude at the door.”

With a sense of reluctance, Timothy agreed to the meeting. As he arrived at his father’s office, he couldn’t shake the feeling that his father had yet another scheme waiting up his sleeve.

Upon entering, he found Kamran seated behind his desk, a mysterious woman standing beside him. Her presence added an air of intrigue to the already tense atmosphere.

“Timothy, this is Mia,” Kamran introduced, gesturing towards the woman. “Mia, meeti

et my son, Timothy.”

Timothy offered a polite greeting, but his eyes never wavered from his father. “Dad, what’s going on? Why did. you call me here?”

Kamran sighed, a weight evident in his eyes. He reached into a drawer and retrieved a small box. The gleam of metal caught Timothy’s eye, and as the box opened, he found himself staring at an engagement ring.

“Stella wanted you to have this back,” Kamran said.
