Chapter 102: He's Dead

Angela POV

I gripped Aria's hand firmly as we navigated through JFK's bustling terminal,

Ethan walking dutifully on my other side.

My phone vibrated-Olivia Harrison.

I smiled at the familiar name. Olivia and I had become close friends during my time in Italy. We'd bonded instantly over our shared experiences, and she'd moved back to New

York about a year ago.

"Olivia, hello," I answered.

"My God, your phone is finally working! I tracked your flight and saw it landed, but couldn't reach you. I was worried sick!" Olivia's melodic voice carried her slight Italian

accent.

"We just deplaned," I explained, exhaustion seeping into my voice.

"David is already at the VIP exit-don't move, he'll come to you."

Before I could protest, I spotted David Chen approaching us, his familiar face a welcome

sight after the long flight.

"Angela, welcome back to New York," he greeted warmly, then bent slightly to acknowledge the twins. "Hello Aria, Ethan. I hope you had a pleasant flight."

Olivia's Upper East Side brownstone welcomed us with unexpected warmth. She'd prepared the guest rooms with thoughtful touches-my favorite Jo Malone candles, small potted plants, and toys for the twins.

After helping us settle, David quietly approached me. "Mr. Blake asked me to remind you

that if you need anything, you can call me anytime."

After David left, Olivia nudged me with a knowing smile.
