Carrying His Heir While Fighting His Lies novel Chapter 9

Since my son was born prematurely, he'd has struggled with frequent illnesses. Blake and I lived in constant fear, always worried that our fragile boy might slip away.

Finally, the worst of our fears came true. A flu virus took his life.

I couldn't accept this reality. I spent my days crying, refusing to talk to Blake.

After a heated argument, I left him, leaving behind a divorce agreement.

I took my son's ashes with me, traveling to places he never had the chance to see, showing him the world that he never lived long enough to experience.

Eventually, I scattered his ashes into the sea, praying that in his next life, he could live freely and healthily.

I never received the divorce papers, nor did Blake ever reach out to me.

So, I followed my heart and applied to study computer science in Melbourne, a subject I had once loved.

There, I met a sweet friend named Samantha, who always surrounded me, chattering away. But despite her company, I couldn't shake the feeling of loneliness.

Loneliness had become a part of my life.

I would sometimes sit for hours, staring at the sky, missing my son, my mother, my grandparents. Occasionally, Blake's face would flash across my mind.

I couldn't understand why he hadn't signed the divorce papers or tried to contact me.

Just as I was lost in thought, my phone rang.

It was Mr. Luca, my manager now, handling various jobs related to computers and hacking.

"Hey, Ava, there's a company with a system vulnerability. They need someone to help set up a protection system and track down the culprit."

"Got it. Send me their details, and I'll solve it."

A while later, I received the message. When I saw the company name, my heart skipped a beat.

Jensen Group.

Fate, once again, seemed to be playing tricks on me.

The more I tried to run from something, the more it kept coming after me.

The more I tried to create peace in my life, the more I was disturbed by unexpected events.

That night, I forced myself to focus on fixing the system for Jensen Group.

When I reported back to Mr. Luca, I made sure to ask him not to reveal any of my personal information.

As time went on, Blake still never interfered with my life.

I slowly started to enjoy my time here with friends.

Samantha and I also made a new friend, Nathan Moore, a tall guy with brown eyes.
