Never Let Go

Ava dreaded the thought of returning home. The moment she stepped inside, she knew she'd be met with Erasmi and Cai's questioning looks. She was exhausted by the constant tension and uncertainty that had become her life. In a desperate bid for peace, she had tried contacting Hannah, hoping to buy her silence with more money. Elijah Frost had ensured her financial stability with generous monthly payments, and even after his death, Lucien had continued to provide for her.

Every month, Ava siphoned a small portion into her own account, while the rest went into Caius' trust fund. She had never dared touch Cai's money before, always prioritizing his future. But now, with Erasmi in the picture, Cai's future seemed secure. So she need not feel guilty about using the money. It was millions of dollars! And she would give her more even if Hannah ran out. But she needed Hannah to go away!
