When There Is Nothing Left But Love

That was unexpected. After everything that had happened to Sally, she moved to the suburbs of K City for a change of environment. I assumed she would be living out the rest of her life peacefully herself. Never did I expect her to find a new partner, much less a kid.

I replied, “That’s good to know. After all, she spent half her life embroiled with the White family. Now that she’s found someone she wants to start a family with, she won’t be lonely anymore.”

Cameron nodded. “Indeed. As we age, we fear loneliness. That’s why you and Ashton should hurry up and have kids to liven up the house. Look at Emery, her child’s almost six months old now. Don’t worry, I’ll pass my work responsibilities to Nick and help you with child-rearing.”

“I’ll just let nature take its course. Besides, Summer is practically under your care now. You’ll have a hard time handling two kids.”

“No biggie. I mean, isn’t your dad very free nowadays? Get him a child to curb that bad temper of his.” She laughed at her own words.

Afraid that Summer might wake up, we tiptoed our way out of her room.

“Ms. Collins!” My sudden greeting almost caused her to drop her lunchbox.
