I was dead on my feet and I wanted nothing more than to soak in a bathtub before going to sleep.

We had been planning this banquet for weeks. At first I wasn’t supposed to come. It was supposed to be like always where Mary represented me. After my breakdown in the kitchen that day, I decided it was time to stop hiding.

Mary was excited when I told her that I would be attending the dinner party. For five years my identity had remained a secret. Not because I was afraid of anyone finding out but because I just wanted to live my life in peace.

I didn’t want to be in the limelight. I didn’t want people all of a sudden sucking up to me because they realized I was rich. Now, though I could come out of the shadows. I knew those that are

genuine and those that are not.

I mean fuck, there are already people here tonight who were trying to get on my good graces. Men and women who had looked down on me and treated me like shit before, simply because I didn’t

have a high paying job and according to them. Because they believed I didn’t have a dime to my

name.

It was fucking frustrating. I just wanted to be away from them all.

“I still can’t believe that you’re the founder of Hope Foundation” Letty says awe in her voice. “Why

didn’t you tell me?”

It was hours after my talk with Rowan. I stood next to him and told him my mind. Told him how

things were going to be like and I felt nothing.

There’s just something so rejuvenating about letting the past go. I wasn’t fully healed, but my heart didn’t hurt every freaking second like it used to

Iteel nothing towards Rowan and my so called family. No anger. No bitterness. No hatred. I was sort of numb and I liked that I liked that I could now breathe easily without the constant feeling of drowning

“Ava?”

I turn to Letty “Yes?”

“You haven’t answered my question” Letty says with a pout

“I didn’t tell you because no one else knew except for those who work at Hope foundation, the

children and Noah I had requested them to keep it a secret till I was ready for my identity to be

made public”
