The man hadn't finished speaking when Amelia Garcia swiftly cut him off.
Really full and bloated.
Did he really think a reintroduction could erase everything from the past?
Three kids were right there in the flesh, constantly reminding her of the love she had for that man, of a marriage that once was.
Unless her brain was damaged, suddenly afflicted with amnesia, she would never be able to indulge in such self-deceiving games.
The phone rang, and she knew without looking that it was still Christopher Hart calling.
This guy really went all out, shamelessly at that.
She pressed mute and continued working, only for Shaw to knock and enter again.
"Sis, someone's looking for you..." Shaw held up her own phone, her voice trailing off.
Amelia had just picked up her pen when she heard this and looked at her assistant, her frown deepening with irritation, "Is it him calling?"
"Um..."
"Hang up."
