You need me to do anything else?” I look up from the paperwork and shake my head. “Thank you, Serena. See you tomorrow.” She nods and walks away, leaving the door to my office open. Allysa’s last day was two weeks ago. She’s due any day now. I have two other full-time employees, Serena and Lucy. Yes. That Lucy. She’s been married for a couple of months now and came in looking for a job two weeks ago. It’s actually worked out pretty well. She keeps herself busy, and if I’m here when she is, I just keep my office door shut so I don’t have to listen to her sing. It’s been almost a month since the incident on the stairs. Even with everything Ryle told me about his childhood, the forgiveness was still hard to come by. I know Ryle has a temper. I saw it the first night we met, before we ever even spoke a word to each other.
