Chapter 77

• KADEN’S P.O.V
• I drove the rest of the way home with a smile on my face. Seeing Amelia flustered and happy had been the highlight of my night. I wanted to put a smile on her face always. When she refused the phone, I was hurt and I didn’t plan to be that firm with her but I needed her to know that I was more than willing to give her the whole world if she asked. That phone barely caused a dent in my bank account and the only reason I didn’t do more was because Clara told me to take it easy.
• When I got to my house, I immediately knew something was wrong. For starters, my mother’s car was parked in my driveway. She never came to visit unless something was wrong. I glanced at my phone first and I muttered a curse when I realized I had seven missed calls from her. I put it on silence because I didn’t want any disturbances with Amelia.
