Roxie pulled up in front of Ava’s door, she knew Ava needed her now more than ever and is just trying to be strong, she knocked on the door then she realized the door knob wasn’t locked, she pushed the door open and got into the house, Ava looked disgruntled but happy to see her


    “Oh Roxie, thank goodness you came,” Ava said as soon as she noticed her presence.


    “Of course I would, I’m always here for you,” Roxie assured.


    “But you didn’t have to tho,” Ava protested a little, even though she knew within her that Roxieing over would help her rx and get her mind off things happening at thepany,


    Roxie helped her to finish up the cleaning, change Chloe’s diapers and dressed her bed,


    “Thank you so much Roxie,” Ava muttered,


    “Ava, you don’t need to get yourself so worked up I’m sure things would work out and we’ll go back to how we used to be,” Roxie said squeezing Ava’s hand gently


    “If only Mason would at least listen to what I have to say,” Ava replied, frustration all over her face.


    “Did you call Mason?” Roxie asked in astonishment


    “I had no choice but to call him Roxie, he’s the only one that can help save Quinn’s I really won’t forgive myself if anything happens to thepany,’ Ava answered back


    “And what did he say when you called?” Roxie asked her friend.


    “He said I shouldn’t meddle in the affairs of thepany, can you imagine?” Ava said as she walked up to the fridge to take a ss of water for herself and a ss of orange juice for her friend.


    “I’m not surprised he said that to you after all, he instigated your removal from thepany,” Roxie said in annoyance,


    “Oh, how much I hate that being Mason is doing too much and it’s high time he’s put in ce,” Roxie added


    “His ce is clearly at Quinn’s, I was the one who wasid off. I can’t do anything to help mypany,” Ava said in a trembling voice.


    “Ava, just quit saying this the only person in the right position to save Quinn’s is you,” Roxie replied as a matter of fact, sometimes she wished her boss never met Bruce—


    but one can’t question the matters of the heart, because only the heart knows what it wants, the two friends talked about everything they could do to help thepany, when Chloe woke up Roxie tended to her while she made Ava rest her head a little


    Later in the day, a few minutes past midday after Roxie had left, Bruce pulled up in front of Ava’s house with a bunch of rose flowers, some food he ordered and toys for Chloe.


    Chloe was getting a hang of having a father figure around her, she was beginning to recognize him and when he stretched his hands to hug her she didn’t resist and tug at his shirt until he lifted her up.


    “I have to put this in a vase,” Ava said, she collected what he had brought for them and kept them aside except for the stuffed bear Chloe refused to give up.


    After eating what he brought, she suggested they go out to the park and rx a little with the excuse that the house was too stuffy.


    Bruce yed and tickled and threw Chloe in the air to her utmost satisfaction, for a little bit Ava selfishly wished that the time would halt so they would remain like this a little bit more — because with Bruce, time wasn’t promised and anything is bound to happen.


    Her mind shed back to the day Nora threw her out of the house and she shuddered in fear, the experience made her miss herpany even more.


    As she stared at both father and daughter in admiration, her mind went back to herpany; she was tempted to call Mason and talk sense into him.


    Thepany right now, isn’t about her nor any other person it’s about the reputation they have worked so hard for, how could he be so nonchnt and gullible.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “She looks just like you,” Bruce said,


    “But with my eyes,” he quickly added chuckling,


    “But with your eyes,” Ava repeated his words,ughing. Being together with arguably the two people she loved most seemed to take her mind off the tragedy that appeared toe at herpany in full force.


    “I want to do this everyday,” Bruce said warmly, he looked at Ava she smiled, she didn’t want to get her hopes high


    Even though she’d given up everything she had for them to be together she knew it was as impossible as finding a pin at the bottom of theke so instead of wishing, she relished in the moment.


    “What will you do about thepany?” Bruce questioned


    “In the meantime I’m clueless as to what I would do but I know I’d figure something outter on,” she replied.


    “I’m sure you’d figure out something I believe in you,” Mason said assuredly, he pulled her close so she could rest her head on his chest—


    ************************************************


    “Make sure you take a clear picture of them,” Nora said coldly to the driver, ever since she realized Ava was a threat to what she shared with Bruce she stalked her wherever she went and paid people to take pictures of her and Bruce together.


    She feared for her rtionship— the miserable Ava hade into their life to tear them apart but she wasn’t going to let it, she was determined to fight for her love with everyst breath of hers.


    She made sure to hire the services of a trained photographer and always goes out in camouge whenever she needs to stalk Ava so she could get enough evidence to hold against her


    Nora couldn’t bear the thought of losing the man she loved to some maliciousdy, after taking enough pictures Nora left for Bruce’s parents ce she wanted to tell them all about Ava and to make sure they see to it that the love they share is destroyed.
