Chapter 0223

The thought of that brings a certain kind of panic inside me. I didn’t want to think of that. I

didn’t want to let go of my dream of being with Rowan. I stay quiet as I fight her words in

my head.

“Emma?” she calls.

I know her; she wants me to agree. She wants me to tell her that I’ll think about it, but I

don’t want to.

I’m saved from answering her when a knock sounds on my door.

have to go, Molly. There is someone at the door” I tell her in a hurry as I walk towards said

door.

“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing, Em. This…”

I hang up the phone before she can finish her sentence.

Opening the door, I’m surprised to find mom on the other side. She wasn’t smiling, but

hope still bubbles

inside me.

She doesn’t wait for an invitation, she just walks in.

“I’m going to make this short,” she says, and all the hope that I had a moment ago shrinks

and dies.

I close the door and face her. Looking at her, I fight my tears when I notice the angry fire

dancing behind her eyes.

“I want to meet my grandson. I expect you to properly introduce him to me,” she begins.

“You’re also going to acknowledge him as your son and part of the Sharp family. You’re

going to establish a bond with him, get to know him, and you’re going to include him in

your life. Am I understood?”

I stare at her wide–eyed. She couldn’t be serious, right? Was she really going to force me

to get to know him?

“You can’t be serious, Mom. I don’t want to know him!” I shout, appalled by the idea.

I’ve regretted him since I learned I was pregnant, so how could I turn around and try and

build a life with him?

The flicker of fire I had seen in mom’s eyes turns into a blazing inferno. She raises her

hand, and I react too slowly. The smack on my face leaves me confused for a while. Still

place a hand on my cheek and look at her in disbelief. She has never slapped me before.

Never.

“You listen to me and listen well; I’m going to give you one chance to fix things with your

son and the man you cruelly used and discarded, or I swear to you, Emma, I will disown

you. Mark my words. You continue down the path you’re walking, and I’ll consider you

dead to me.” She pauses, before continuing.

“I know my behavior towards your sister may have contributed to your reasoning. It was

mistake. Fix what you’ve broken”

She doesn’t give me a chance to say anything before she walks past me, opens the door

and leaves. I’m

left standing staring at the spot she stood a few minutes ago.

The ultimatum she gave me keeps playing in my head. Either get to know Gunner or lose

know my mother and she doesn’t give out empty threats. I no longer had a choice.

Why did Ava have to find out the truth?

My heart hardens as I think of her, and fury fills me.

Fuck. I hate that bitch. She should have just kept her F***ing mouth shut.
