Chapter 61: Beautiful Name
Elena
My shift at the bakery just ended, I didn't want to come to work today but I knew I needed to otherwise I would spend the whole day crying my eyes out. I needed to start a life that doesn't include Bernard.
"Goodbye, Veronica." I waved her through the small opening to the kitchen.
"Bye, sweetheart. You will feel better soon, okay." I gave her a tight-lipped smile and walked out of the bakery. I had told her that I was having a stomach bug when she asked what was wrong. Although she didn't look convinced, she didn't press me on it further.
I stepped into the cool breeze of the river road and started walking down the sidewalk until I noticed a man standing next to a familiar sleek black car. My steps faltered when I noticed that it was Liam and when he sensed my eyes on him, he looked up. He smiled and waved his hand, gesturing for me to come towards him.
