As Max led the way, Samantha just walked with her arm around me and without asking for it, my life's story rushed from my lips. Samantha listened without interruption. As we neared.

When you confronted me about my affair, I didn’t know what to say. But if I could turn back time, I would have acted differently. Bella, will you accept my apology?”Bella instantly accepted and James added, “The only thing that’s important to me is that you’re happy.”“Thank you, James. I’m pleased that you have my best interests at heart.“All the bad memories of their breakup were finally dismissed.
