Only the Hawthorne and Gilbert families knew the truth about Max’s marriage, and whether Anne was born inside or outside of it. Since they kept everything under wraps, no one else dared to ask too much.
Max glanced at Cian, a faint smile playing on his lips. “Jealous?”
Cian broke into a grin. “Honestly, who wouldn’t be? But really, how did you end up with a daughter as sweet as Anne? I’ll never figure it out.”
Everyone knew Max was cold. He never really showed his true feelings to anyone.
Wyatt watched Felicia as she led Anne away, then said, “It’s obvious. Anne must take after her mom—gentle, kind. If she was anything like Max, we’d all be in trouble.”
Cian’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “So, Wyatt, who is Anne’s mother, really?”
It was pretty clear Max didn’t love Anne’s mother. If he did, she wouldn’t have stayed a secret all these years. She had never even been seen at any family events.
But even if he didn’t care for the mother, Max absolutely adored Anne. If he ever cared about someone, it was her.
Wyatt looked at Max. “If you really want to know, just ask him.”
Cian let out a laugh, letting the subject drop. “Fine, fine. But be honest, Max—did you want a daughter because you were jealous of Wyatt’s little girl?”
Max’s eyes softened as he watched Anne from a distance. Felicia tucked a flower behind Anne’s ear, and the girl’s smile was brighter than sunshine.
Max turned to Cian, warmth in his eyes. “If you’re that jealous, you should hurry up and have your own.”

Update please...
When is this going to end? Please update it pretty please. Thank you...
Update pls...
The story is a drag. How can they write crap like this where the female lead is like a lapdog, and the male lead is a complete trash? They use a child to blackmail the mother into staying. The female lead should not go back to the trashy male lead. I would prefer her to be with Jeremy....
