The Million-Dollar Heart

After Vivienne worked her magic, Tyler's back was on the mend. He was sitting across from his wife, playing with their kid, when he patted her hand and said reassuringly, "The court summons have been sent,

Anna was scrolling through her phone, the vibration alerts following one after another.

Without even raising an eyelid, she saw that familiar name flash up and felt a surge of irritation.

Instead of reacting, she simply tapped the screen a few times, silencing the notifications. "Kaitlyn, it's not about whether they want to let this go. It's about us not letting them off the hook."
