She hadn't done anything to provoke him! She couldn't care less about him, diverting her gaze from Alaric's furious eyes towards the door, catching a glimpse of Spencer and Emmeline standing there.
Her heart, racing with nerves, finally settled down. It wasn't her two little angels at the door after all.
She'd thought her dad had shown up with the kids, ringing the doorbell.
Letting out a deep sigh of relief, she thought, "Man, that was a close call. Feels like my heart's running a marathon. A few more scares like that, and I'll be on my way to a heart attack." Clearly, Alaric coming over was a no-go from now on. Way too risky.

Alaric, ready to join them, turned towards the house.
Hertha quickly grabbed his arm, nudging him towards the door, her smile fading as she gave him a sideways look, "The exit's that way. Take care, won't you?" Alaric frowned in displeasure, "Hertha, isn't it a bit obvious you're treatingdifferently?" "I sure am, so what? You gonna eatup? Your place is right across the street. Bye now," Hertha pushed him out the door, pointing towards his house across the way. Then, she retreated indoors, shutting the door behind her.
Left out in the cold, Alaric's mood soured further. He exhaled a frustrated breath and headed home.
Thinking about how Hertha still seemed to care about Spencer's opinion, it was clear she hadn't moved on from Spencer.
A bitter taste filled Alaric's mouth.
C NOW PLAY YOUR FAVOURITE GAMES ON KO WW Three years ago, when he'd rushed out of that hotel and saw Hertha with Spencer, their closeness, he'd chosen to walk away silently, not stepping forward to clarify. He'd decided to bow out, letting Hertha and Spencer be.
If he hadn't stepped back then, if he'd explained how he'd mistaken Georgia for her that drunken night, that he had no feelings for Georgia, only for Hertha...
Maybe then, she wouldn't have ended up with Spencer, and they could've had a future together.
But regretting it now, three years later, was too late.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere's no such thing as a pill for regret.
"Hertha, who was that?" Kimberly asked, wiping her hands on her apron as she emerged from the kitchen.
Spotting Spencer on the couch, her face lit up, "Spencer, it's you..."
Kimberly had always adored Spencer, having once hoped to match him with Hertha seeing him as the perfect son-in-law. Her joy was cut short upon noticing the woman next to him, arm in arm, clearly a couple.
Kimberly's smile stiffened briefly before warming up again, though not as effortlessly as with Spencer, "This young lady must be Spencer's girlfriend. You two make a lovely pair." Then, shooting a glance at Hertha, her eyes conveyed a hint of disappointment for not cherishing such a catch.
"Thank you, you look so young," Emmeline said with a smile. Sah on the Findelwebsite on Gøøgl to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Spencer greeted Kimberly, "Kimberly, I heard you were in town and wanted to stop by." "You're thoughtful. I was just making dinner; stay and join us. Hertha, invite your boyfriend over for dinner too." Kimberly realized someone was missing, her eyes scanning around, "Oh, where's your boyfriend?" X
