Aveline’s POVS
Without Wiley to protect Severine and her son, life got brutal for the two of them. First, the lifestyle nosedived. Then came the judgment and rejection from relatives. They were left with nothing but shame.
I only heard about it later through a mutual friend. But honestly? I didn’t care. It had nothing to do with me anymore.
One morning, I made breakfast for my son and was getting ready to take him to school.
To my surprise, Wiley was waiting downstairs–for the first time in over a month.
He looked worn out–pale, tired, bags under his eyes.
But when he saw us, he still smiled–softly, carefully–like he was afraid of scaring us off.”
He quickly opened the car door, saying, “Let me take you to school.”
He looked worried I’d say no, so he quickly added, “Aveline, I’m not asking you to get back together with me. But our son’s still little. He needs his father. Please…. at least give me the chance to make it up to him… To make it up to you.”
I looked at our little one. His clear, trusting eyes showed no rejection toward Wiley.
After a moment, I nodded. I took Beau’s hand, and together, we got into Wiley’s car.
In the two years that followed, Wiley quietly stayed by our side. He devoted himself completely to our son.
The boy had always wanted his father’s love–and with time, the distance between them completely disappeared.” I didn’t stop them.
But as far as I was concerned, I never let Wiley get any closer.
That’s all he would ever be—my son’s father.N
Never again my husband.
