From Hawaii to Forever Page 19


  Kaja might be feeling sorry for herself now but she had no idea what it truly meant to be abandoned by the ones you loved. He’d been abandoned by his own mother and wife. Whereas she was the one who did the abandoning.

  Kaja disputed his take on her life with a, ‘Hah!’

  ‘Daddy, look!’ Amy was straining to see out of the window. He leaned over to see what had caught her attention.

  His mouth dropped open as they drove up a winding avenue lined with blush-pink cherry blossoms and crystal-clear dancing water fountains.

  ‘Home, sweet home,’ Kaja mocked as the imposing mansion at the end of the drive came into view.

  Gleaming white stone pillars, marble steps and balconies on every level of the ornate building gave it the appearance of a grand, layered wedding cake. A congregation of immaculately dressed people spilled out to meet the car. Seth immediately unbuckled Amy’s seat belt and took her hand so she didn’t get lost in the throng.

  ‘Baby, we’re not in Cambridge any more.’
