CHAPTER 35 A Win is a Win

  Mia POV

  New York

  I was back in New York with Bella, having relocated to another apartment after the dramatic shootout at the old one. As I settled onto the couch, I began filling Bella in on everything that had transpired on the West Coast.

  "That's so insane," Bella remarked, her eyes wide with disbelief as I recounted the chaotic events. "How crazy can one person be?"

  I nodded in agreement, munching on a handful of salted peanuts. "I know, right? It was like something out of a movie."

  Bella leaned in closer, her curiosity piqued. "So now you're Mrs. Thornton?" she asked playfully, wiggling her eyebrows at me.

  I couldn't help but laugh at her teasing. "Well, technically," I replied, rolling my eyes. "But it's not as glamorous as it sounds."

  Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Bella rose to answer it. To our delight, Sophia stood in the doorway, holding a cheesecake and chocolate slushies.
