Chapter 347

The sun fell perfectly on my skin as I lounged by the poolside in our family yard, with Rona and Victoria by my side.

Everything was peaceful, so peaceful I couldn’t even believe it was real. Life had gone back to the way it use to as this was how we used to spend our days in the past.

Victoria’s voice cut through the peaceful silence. “Do you think I should reply to Victor’s text?” A blush reached her cheeks.

“I think you should!” Rona who had been informed about everything told her.

It was quite amusing, considering Victoria had insisted I stay away from Marvin and it had even impacted our friendship. Now she was the one after the bad guy.

Still, I couldn’t help but feel happy for her. She deserved this happiness, this chance at love.
