Chapter 0519
I have one of their products and it's my favorite one. Well, used to be, since I no longer use it now that Gabriel and
I are together. Anyway, you can barely tell the difference when you are using it. It feels like a real cock.
They have other toys too, but their dildos are my favorites.
"Well, it took a lot of research, and we all played a part. It was really fun researching and experimenting," Ava adds with a smile.
*Since you love our products," Letty says with a smirk. "How about becoming a partner?"
I frown as I think about it. "I don't know. Gabriel gave back my family's company. Won't being associated with a sex-toy company ruin its image? You know how snubbish people can be."
"Don't worry about it," Ava speaks. "We are all kind of like silent partners. We have a CEO and a VP, but they are simply the face of the company. We run things, and of course they help, but no one else knows we are the founders except the two and our spouses."
It's a tempting idea. A really tempting idea.
"Why don't you think about it first, then you'll let us know?" Connie asks.
"Okay, but I'll have to run it through Gabriel."
*No problem," Letty chips in, still excited and enthusiastic.
We are quiet as we sip our drinks. I'm surprised by my friends. Surprised by such power houses. It is quite inspiring and motivating to have them as my friends. Seeing all they have accomplished has pushed me to want to do better and be better.
"What is it?" Letty asks when Ava sighs tiredly. "Is it the baby?"
"No, it's Noah"
We turn to where she's facing. She's looking at Noah, who was clearly ignoring Sierra like she wasn't there. Lilly has told me all about her crush on Noah, and, honestly, I feel for her.
"I honestly can't understand what's wrong with that boy!" Ava fumes. "He's kind to everyone except her. Sierra is a great girl, and she has managed to win my heart. I hate seeing Noah treat her that way."
"Maybe have a talk with him?" I suggest, feeling a pang I can't explain in my chest.
"I've tried! I don't know what else to do. It's clear she likes him a lot. She once told me that she's going to marry him one day, but that shouldn't be a reason for him to treat her so horribly. I don't understand why Noah dislikes her so much."
I can feel her ache. It echoes mine completely, and it's not because she's Lilly's best friend.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
"Give it time. They are kids. Maybe things will change once they are a bit more mature." Letty chimes in, squeezing Ava's hand in reassurance.
Ava sighs again. "I hope so. To be honest, I wouldn't mind having Sierra as my daughter-in-law one day. I just hope Noah doesn't ruin something that could blossom into an amazing love between them. They are just kids, but there is a certain spark between them, one I can't even explain. I just hope my son isn't stupid enough to snuff it out."
Excusing herself, she stomps towards Noah. There is something about the girl that captured my heart. I'm yet to figure out what it is.
I lean back against my chair and watch Sierra, pondering what it is about her that drew me to her like a moth to a flame.
The answer doesn't come to me no matter how much I think about it. Eventually, I stop trying to figure it out and
just embraced Sierra like my own. What I didn't know is that the answer would come to me years later, when she's all grown up and is facing an unimaginable loss.
