Bell's POV..
(Tap the media above it'll show Bell's outfit for this chapter).

I watched Jimmy and Jules play with Lizzy, I couldn't move or smile, the shock of what I heard today was still ringing in my head, it was all over the news, an engagement party in three weeks time between Mr Crawford and Miss Toods, the bitch, I couldn't just think, I expected better from Asher, maybe it's true he had moved on and he cares about his child only, I scoff and walk out of the living room, I needed a walk else I would cry my heart out.

I walked farther enough and saw Asher's car close to an exclusive boutique, I wasn't ready to see him, not at all, I tried walking very fast past the car when I heard my name from a ladies lips, I turned to the boutique and saw Asher and Sasha with clothing they just got, why is this bitch smiling at me?
"Hi, I'm Sasha Toods, Asher's fiancee,"she said smiling, Asher has this dull and nervous look on his face,
"Hi, it's nice to meet you again,"I smile back and she pulled me in for a hug,
"Well, there is gonna be my engagement party at The Exquisite in three weeks time and I would love for Asher's ex and baby mama to be there to celebrate with us, it's an all red and white party,"she said smiling cockily, I so hate this girl, Asher already told her about us and Lizzy, well it's his wife to be,
"Ehmm, yeah, I can be there, it will be an honor,"I reply while stealing glances at Asher,
"And one more, Mrs Silvia Crawford, the biggest model you could think of, your exes mother and my fiance's mother will be in  Manhattan in three days, there will be a party, an all black party, I'll love to see little Lizzy, my soon to be stepdaughter at the party,"she said again, still very cockily, the idea of Lizzy having a stepmom made my stomach churn in fear,
"I'm sorry but Lizzy is still very little, I wouldn't admire the idea of a party, you can some other time, but I'll be there,"I say and turn to leave but she pulled me for another hug,
"You know things change, circumstances change, people change, I was the bitch to Ash, but now, you are the bitch, the bigger bitch,"she said to my ear before leaving me with her naughty smile, my smile fell as I walked away, I didn't when I started running, unfortunately it started raining, I had to start running home, I was frustrated.

"Oh God!....Bell, Bell?"Donna called in fear as she hugged my wet body,it was late at night when I got back inside the rain, I was freezing as she held me to the door, we got inside and she made hot soup with mum's recipe, I couldn't help it, I was hurt, I kept crying and wailing, I hadn't changed from my wet clothes, the soup was what cooled me down a bit,
"What happened?"Donna asked as I sobbed while drinking the soup,
"I don't wanna talk about it "I simply replied,
"I saw it too, I knew it would break you, he was your first and all but..."
"But what??"I cut in rashly as I raised my head from my soup,
"But I should let go? I should move on? What's the but?"I continued angrily,
"Look, you have Lizzy, you have Liam, you have us..."
"It's not the same!"I cut in angrily as the blanket around me fell, Donna silently watched me,
"It can never be the same, if I'm asked to choose between Liam and Asher, God knows I'll choose Asher a million times over,"I said lowly in tears,
"What about Lizzy and Asher? You know Silvia is coming to Manhattan right? And she's not the best person to mess with,"Donna cautioned, I look at her for a while and stand up,
"Shit"I said under my breath as I start crying again, Donna stood up and held my shoulders,
"You have to let go,"
"I can't"I whispered like I didn't want to believe I still loved Asher,
"It's ok, I understand,"she said and hugged me tightly, I rested my fears on her shoulder.

I woke up to the sound of Donna's voice,"Miss sleepyhead, come out and have breakfast, I have to leave for the bakery early," I chuckle and leave my bed, I love this woman so much, I was already done with the intern job I was doing, I'll be going to the bakery with Donna while Aunt Giselle take care of the kids. I packed my hair in a messy ponytail and left my room,
I sipped my tea and ate my lobster rolls, I just remembered I hadn't eaten well since I heard the news, I shrugged at the thought of it. I finished my meal, had my bath and joined Donna in Matt's car to the bakery.

Donna's bakery is one sweet place with all the sugar and sweet in the air, it feels like home, I assisted her serve even when she had workers, Tom, Rose and Amber, Tom and Donna bakes while Rose and Amber serves, one goes out to serve the tables while the other would stay and attend orders that leave immediately, they do change positions, coming here made things easier, I was doing both, I would serve tables with Rose and still join Amber to serve orders. Amber walked out for some reasons and I had to stay check, unfortunately Sasha walked in, I wasn't expecting her,
"Hi, your welcome to Sweet Meet, what would you like to buy?"I asked smiling, she silently observed me before laughing,
"You work at Sweet Meet now?"she exclaimed in pretence to be surprised, her exclaimed is pertained to mockery,
"This is Asher's favorite place to buy dessert, he comes here always,"she said proudly, Asher buys from Donna?
"Sorry I don't work here, it's my sister's"I reply calmly,
"Ooh"she answered with an embarrassed smile,
"Well, I would have three cheesecake brownies, one blueberry muffin, two s'mores and definitely two ambrosia salad, that would be all"she said and I had to put them in a package for her,
"There you go"I handed her the bag, she placed her card and paid before walking out, I breathe in relief, why do I get scared whenever I see her? I walk out as Amber returned.
