Chapter 131 Braver, Bolder

Kelly’s POV

“Mommy, why is daddy Pierce not visiting?”

It’s the 6th time Snow asked that question today. She doesn’t seem to notice it for the past few days but now she’s starting to think about it. Pierce is calling everyday, but he’s not visiting.

I know I can’t stop her from wanting to be with her dad. Her heart knows but for now, I need to focus on her and not on anyone else.

I still love Pierce. I fell in love with him for the second time, but I won’t trade my daughter’s safety for a man’s love. I’d live but unhappy without Pierce, but I don’t think I could ever survive a day if I lose my daughter.

“Daddy Pierce is busy, pumpkin.”

“I saw him on the news, mommy. Why are the people following him? They are asking him about you. Does daddy Pierce love you, mommy?”

I bit my bottom lip. “I don’t know, sweetie.”

“On my birthday next year, can I invite daddy Pierce and my friends, mommy?”
