Chapter 0441 "This is Ava we are talking about, | always saw her as a rival since the day I realized that she had a thing for Rowan. I never hated her, but I wouldn't say I loved her either even though I thought she was my sister. To me, she was just Ava. She didn’t really exist in my world. My hatred however came to life when I learned she slept with Rowan.

Ava shakes her head as if to clear it, then walks over to me, “What are you doing?” “Ihave a therapy appointment” A small smile forms on her lips as she tilts her head to stare at me. “Then you've come to the right place. Dr Mia is the best in the city. She’s been my therapist since Ethan got arrested.” I expected to see hate or bitterness for Ethan because of what he did, but there was none. She just smiled fondly when

| she said his name.

The secretary behind me tells me that my therapist is ready for me. I start to fidget.

All the reassurance I had a couple of minutes ago flies out of the window.

| I'm jolted from my mini panic when soft and warm hands engulf mine. I look up to find Ava smiling at me and holding my hand.

“You are nervous” she simply states and I nod.

“You don’t have to be, Emma. This is the first step to healing. I promise” I hear her words, but they are just jumbled. My heart is racing and so is my mind. I’m nervous and a part of me wants to run and hide, because I’m afraid of coming face to face with my mistakes.

With my demons.

“How about I stay here and wait for you?” she asks when I don’t seem to be

calming down. “If I stay right here, will knowing I'm outside help you?” I stop and think for a while.

“Yes, I think it will” I answer in a small voice, barely above a whisper.

“Perfect, come then” She holds my hand and pulls me towards the door. When we get to it, she gives me a small shove after telling me she’ll be right outside, before closing the door behind me.

“Hi Emma,” the woman sitting at the couch is nothing like I expected her to be.

I'm a lawyer, so I assumed she’d be dressed in a skirt suit or something like that. Instead her clothes were really, really casual.

With her flowing skirt, headscarf, multiple necklaces and bangles, and her bare feet, she reminded me of a gypsy.

| “Hi” I reply nervously, remembering that she had greeted me first.

| “Take a seat” she tells me in a soft-arnd comforting voice.

Reluctantly, I do as she tells me. I wasn’t a judgmental person, but right now I was judging her ability to help me. She’s nothing like I imagined a therapist to be.

“So, first of all I want you to close your eyes and take a deep breath” she says. “I want you to clear your head, push down any fears you may have about this session. I want you relax, unwind and just be your true self” Again, not what I was expecting. Was this how therapy sessions started? This sounds more like yoga than a therapy session.

I continue looking at her skeptically, my eyes narrowed. Maybe Molly made a mistake. Hell, Ava too. None of what she was telling me seems professional.

“Emma, this won't work if you don’t follow my instructions” she tells again | me in that gentle manner.

Sighing, I give in. The session was already booked and paid for. What did I have to lose? With that thought I close my eyes and focus on nothing. I just let my mind drift until it finally relaxes.

“Now, open your eyes” Dr Mia says, and I slowly open my eyes. “How do you feel?” “Surprisingly, a bit more relaxed and less tense” I have to admit that I did not expect that to work at all.

“Super. Now we can start our session. I learned early on that it’s beneficial for my clients to be at ease before we start our sessions, that’s why I start with helping them to release their dark energies”
