Love Like Her (Against All Odds #3) - Claudia Y. Burgoa Page 0,36

pregnant.

Liv: I’m not judging, but didn’t she just start dating this guy a couple of weeks ago? That’s anatomically impossible. Or is it biologically?

Eros: Not Persy. Nyx.

Liv: Congratulations, Uncle Eros!

Eros: Thank you.

Liv: How is she? Happy, I’m sure.

Eros: She says she’s okay, but I’m not sure. She was fired, and her former boss threatened to disbar her. She took off with my silent partner.

Liv: All that happened to her in just one week?

Eros: Three days. It’s bad.

Liv: She’ll be fine.

Eros: It’s Nyx. She doesn’t just take off and leave things up in the air. I’m worried.

Liv: You said it before, she needs to make mistakes to learn that life isn’t perfect. A baby is never a mistake, but getting fired might be the key to her happiness.

Eros: Nate is not her happiness. This guy is cool. He does have a crush on her, but I hope that he stays away from her for everybody’s sake.

Liv: Why?

Eros: He’s a playboy. How serious can he be about a single mom?

Liv: He might surprise you. Have you found Callie?

Eros: Nope. The last time she answered my call, she told me to go fuck myself. Who packs her shit, doesn’t tell her family, and leaves to… who the fuck knows where she’s at?

Liv: This big brother thing might drive you to drink or to the grave. Are you still worried about Persy and her new boyfriend?

Eros: No. I like him.

Liv: One out of three sisters doing well isn’t bad.

Eros: Since you’re a soulmate-love expert, can you answer my question?

Liv: I can’t see if there’s love in your future. Are you feeling like a spinster?

Eros: No. It’s not about me.

Liv: Shoot.

Eros: So, there’s this guy who’s been friends with this girl for years. They are close. She has a serious boyfriend, and he just realized she might be the one who got away.

Liv: I don’t see the question in there.

Eros: Persy and I have been discussing this subject. She says the guy isn’t in love. That it’s not possible. I insist that it can happen.

Liv: You want me to be the impartial judge?

Eros: The voice of reason.

Liv: Why the sudden interest in her?

Eros: It’s hypothetical. I wouldn’t know the answer.

Liv: I’d need to know more about this. There’s a possibility that he finally fell for his best friend. But if the woman in question is in love with her boyfriend, he should stay away. He had his chance and blew it.

Eros: This is like an entire third option.

Liv: Sorry, but the reason why he suddenly notices her doesn’t matter. If she’s happy and he really cares about her, he should shut up and stay away. He had his chance.

Eros: You’re telling me that even if this woman is the love of his life, he has to step aside?

Liv: If indeed she was such, he’d have noticed her a long time ago.

Eros: I feel like you’re siding with Persy.

Liv: I think both of you have valid points.

Eros: Hey, Dad’s asking me to help him fix his truck. Talk to you later.

Liv: Run from reality. You know I’m right.

Eros: You’re not. Put a pin in that conversation. We’ll get back to it.

Liv: Sorry I missed your call.

Eros: No worries, I just wanted to say hi. I’m at the airport.

Liv: This is so exciting. I wish I was with you.

Eros: You can still come with me.

Liv: The Boston branch is a mess. I fired the manager. Dad’s going to have another heart attack when he finds out about it.

Eros: You should’ve done that a couple of months ago. (I told you so.) Do you need any help?

Liv: Just send me pictures and keep me updated. I want to live vicariously through you.

Eros: I still don’t understand why you can’t come to work for me.

Liv: Don’t tell anyone, but I might like working for Dad. After all, I’m in charge. : wink emoji :

Eros: Don’t work too much.

Liv: K

Eros: I’m back!

Liv: I was promised more pictures.

Eros: I’ll upload all the pictures I took to the cloud. My phone doesn’t work in the area. There’s no signal or cell tower.

Liv: Well, that sucks. You’re going to be out of touch more often than I expected.

Eros: How are you?

Liv: I’m doing well. I heard that Persy is making a few changes to her podcast. Is she okay?

Eros: She’s making sure that people stay away from her personal life. Her boyfriend is a very private person.

Liv: In my opinion, she could just talk about her brother. It’s fun when she makes fun
