Grumpy Boss of the Year (The Annoying Hot Bosses Club #4)

Chapter Thirty-Seven

E lisabetta

My eyes are heavy. I want to sleep, but my head is full of too many emotions. I lie on my bed, staring out the window, and try to think of happy thoughts. I’m so grateful that Skye and Romeo are here with me, yet I feel so conflicted about everything else. Getting to know my mother has been hard. There are days when she seems well, but there are more days when she is easily triggered and acts out in ways that are confusing to me. My father handles them easily, but they still make me scared and slightly afraid, and I feel guilty for wishing that I had a more “normal” set of parents.

I’m still heartbroken over Liam and try to ignore the way my heart races when I see him at breakfast and dinner. He doesn’t even try to talk to me now. Just sits there and stares at me. I don’t know what to say to him. I’m still dreadfully hurt that he lied to me. That he was going to pretend she was dead, even when he knew she wasn’t. I still love him, of course. I don’t think that will ever go away, and I’m annoyed that I’ve fallen truly, madly, and deeply in love with a man who didn’t have my best interests at heart.
