Russell puffed out his checks, acting wounded. “Darling, I’d never do that. I’m grown. I know how to handle myself.”

“We’ve been married for years. Don’t you think I know you by now? At most parties, you’re fine. But this kind? Who knows what you’ll pull?”

Still, Blair’s heart felt light and happy.

Darell sat nearby, peeling an apple for her and grinning. “Yeah, Dad, Mom is the boss now. Better just do as she says.”

Justin and Kayden walked up with a box of grapes. “Mom, these are fresh, just flown in from Lumenland. Have some!”

Wade spoke up seriously, “Mom, this is a big deal. I’ll do what you say, watch over Dad, stay focused, and try to make some good connections.”

Blair reached out, touched his face, and laughed. “Good boy.”

“Wade, even you’re saying that? You’ve totally taken your mom’s side!” Russell muttered, feeling wronged.

He looked ready to tear up–something only Blair’s kiss and soft words could fix.

Seeing Russell, usually so serious, acting that way made everyone crack up.

She clenched her teeth so hard that it felt like they’d shatter. She was clenching her fists, her nails digging into her palms until pain shot up her arms. Rage burned inside her, and she felt like she could cough up blood.

She couldn’t even step forward to say a single word, afraid she’d destroy the happy scene.

Kyla felt that if she dared to walk over, she’d be treated like an outsider, a bug to be crushed.

There was a time when moments like those, full of love and laughter, were hers.

Back then, all the Jensons revolved around her.

She thought it was only natural, like the whole world existed to keep her glowing, with the sun and moon shining just for her smile.

And when Kyla caught Tilda hiding in some corner, ignored, watching with eyes full of hope and fear, it made Kyla feel satisfied in a twisted way.

Everything changed when Blair found her real daughter after 19 long years.

Kyla had been terrified that her spot as heiress would be snatched away by that girl.
