"If I'd gotten along with Annalise back then, maybe she would've put in a good word with Mr. Huxham," he said. "And maybe my company wouldn't be facing all this now." Picking up on the regret in his voice, the person on the other end of the line responded, "Why did you even do it if you're going to regret it now?" Standing by the balcony, Carlisle stared out into the distance. Since Shane had shattered his heart, he'd been looking to his extended family's children to find a successor for the company.

down between them, but he seemed to have changed after bed after that. He m moved into a friend's place someone with a modest background-and now he's set on finding a job."
Carlisle perked up. "Do you think it's because Sasha him? That coagreed to be with En.

Justin hesitated for a moment before responding, "I don't think that's the case."
