Kira leased her son

"No, I'm not!" Joshe refused to look at her.

Kirachuckled when she saw the boy's red ears.

Austyn returned with lennie and a quarelling couple in tow.

"Name it, anything."

Isabel crossed her arms, "chase that guy away. I don't want to see his obnoxious face

Kira didn't need to follow her line of sight to know she was talking about Luca.

She held back a sigh, reluctant to get in the middle of a couple's fight

But Isabel was her friend.

Kira walked over, picked up Joshua from the floor. 'Come on, honey, Aunt Isabel would like to talk to you."

She led the boy into the bedroom and closed the door.

Luca was left alone in the living room.

He sprawled listlessly on the sofa, keeping his gaze on the closed bedroom door.

Kica was immensely relieved when Isabel told her the lads were fine.

In fact, Jennie had almost completely forgotten about the whole incident yesterday

'she inherited your happy-go-lucky attitude, Isabel joked.

Hira smiled. "As long as she's happy"

"Joshua's fine as well, don't worry. He thinks the old man's a bad guy, but then his daddy showed up and saved the day."

The mayor of Stamford was in his pocket, which was why Austyn had to go over the mayor's head and get in touch with the district officials. "What kind of reservations?" Austyn frowned

Luca whipped out his phone and scrolled through his notes, encrypted. 'Bernard Bowman's coming to Stamford next month. If you want to meet him, I can make arrangements." 'Is he still with the governor's office?" "Uh-huh, he's the second-in-command now. If you can get his buy-in, you'

I'll have a much better shot at bringing down Henry."

Austyn patted Luca's shoulder. Thanks."

It couldn't have been easy for Luce to do all this within a couple of days

He probably had to call in quite a number of favours.

Luca shrugged. 'Hey, that's what friends are for, right?"

Kira, Isabel and the kids stayed in the bedroom and watched Tv.

Kira called her office and asked for a day off, suffering from a bad case of period pain

Austyn knocked on the bedroom door when a deliveryman brought lunch.

'Come on, sweetie, time to eat!' Isabel scooped penale up in her arms.

Joshua followed them out

Austyn came to the bed and took in Kira's pale face. 'What's wrong? Kira said nothing

Austyn saw her hand placed over her stomach. "Menstrual cramps?"

He left the bedroom and came back inside two minutes Later, holding a mug of hot water and a couple of Panadol pills. 'Here"
