MARI
Oliver's car idled in Pierce's driveway. I turned back as he leaned through the driver side window before I stepped into the walkway.
"Are you sure, Mari?" he asked.
The only thing I'd been surer of was my desire to spend my forever with Oliver. "Yes."
I was an adult and besides I had things I needed to say to Pierce. I wasn't the only one of us who let life things get in the way of business. Something told me what I planned to tell Pierce was something he needed to hear.
Oliver waited until I let myself in the quiet home and I shut the door behind me before he pulled away. "Pierce?" I called out, but the mansion was still.
He still hadn't replaced Melissa even though I admitted to him her story didn't hold water. He didn't hold it over my head or do the classic "I told you so,"
