Finally, I truly left.
I hailed a taxi, heading to the hotel where Allen was staying. The planned meeting was imminent. As Anya, I would no longer be bound by Kaylie’s past.
Arriving at the hotel, Allen was waiting by the door. Seeing me, he opened his arms for a hug, then introduced me to a handsome man beside him.
This is my sister, Anya. Tyrell, the person you’ve been most eager to meet-she’s here.”
My mind went blank. What did he mean?
Tyrell? The name escaped my lips; it sounded familiar.
Then, I saw him-about 5’11”, dressed in a black suit that lent him an air of mature steadiness. He extended his hand.”Hello, Anya. I’m Tyrell Vaughn. Pleased to meet you.”
Still reeling from the surprise, I reached out, and he responded with a warm, enveloping grip. He gently took my suitcase from me, and with a welcoming gesture, suggested that we should first get me settled in the room.
His smile was bright, like a sudden ray of sunshine, seeming to illuminate only me. In that moment, the sorrow momentarily faded, and I found myself following them into the room.
His voice was pleasant, somehow reminding me of Leland.
Why did this encounter, this man in a white shirt and black suit with neat hair and delicate features-pristine like a mirror-remind me so strongly of my first impression of Leland?
His gentle, refined voice said, “Leave the rest to us, Anya. You should get some good rest.”
I nodded, then, unable to hold back, blurted out, “I’ve already coordinated with the media. Starting at midnight, they will disseminate the news rapidly. I want Leland and Caitlyn’s affair exposed widely.”
Tyrell and Allen exchanged a loaded glance before turning back to me.
