After leaving the villa that morning, Willow checked into a downtown luxury hotel instead of going back to her father's house.
She wanted to keep everything quiet until the divorce was finalized. No one could know—not her father, not her in-laws. If her dad found out, he'd be heartbroken. If her in-laws knew, they'd certainly try to intervene.-
Neither outcome was what she wanted.
Just then, her phone rang.
She glanced at the screen. It was Ablitt, her editor.
"STAR, there's an issue with your new book. Can we meet to talk?"
Hearing the urgency in Ablitt's voice, Willow immediately guessed what it was about.
She feigned ignorance. "Right now?"
"Yes, right now!"
She paused, thinking it over. "Alright. Where should we meet?"
Ablitt gave her a time and place over the phone. He even offered to pick her up, but Willow politely declined.
They arranged to meet at one o'clock in a stylish downtown café, booking a private room.
Willow arrived five minutes early.
As soon as Ablitt walked in, his face lit up and some of his tension seemed to melt away. "Willow, it's been way too long!" he exclaimed, almost relieved.
