tell me about the birth of my first grandchild.”
     
    “Really? I can’t believe you gave an interview to a stranger about your daughter.”
     
    “I didn’t say anything bad. Did you even read it? I was completely supportive.”
     
    “You shouldn’t have spoken to them.”
     
    “Well if my daughter had informed me of her affair with a billionaire and subsequent pregnancy by him… I would have known not to talk.”
     
    “Give me a break mother. When you thought this was Jason’s baby you had no interest in him whatsoever… I quote: “I am too young to be a grandmother.” All of a sudden because you know he is Alex’s son, you’re interested. You should really be ashamed of yourself.”
     
    “That’s no way to talk to your mother Victoria.”
     
    “Then you should act like a mother every now and again.”
     
    “I’m going to write your attitude off as post-partum depression. When can I see my grandson?”
     
    I sighed. She wasn’t going to give up easily. “He’s too young to take out yet. I’ll bring him by to see you next week.”
     
    “I can come see him at the Reigns estate… that is where you are living, right?”
     
    “How do you know that?”
     
    “You really didn’t read that article, did you?”
     
    “It said that I was living here? Jesus!”
     
    “There’s no shame in landing a rich, good-looking man Vicki. I’m proud of you. What time shall I come see my grandson?”
     
    “Today is not a good day, mother. I’ll let you know.”
     
    “Victoria…”
     
    “Good-bye Mother!” I hung up, cutting her off. It wasn’t like me to defy her. No matter how much she’d annoyed me over the years I have gone out of my way to be as respectful to her as possible, but she’d pushed my last button. She would have easily turned her back on both me and my son if he had been Jason’s child. She can feel the brunt of rejection for once this time. I was finished.
     
    I had breakfast with Cook and it was like the old days. He and I talked about everything and nothing and it was relaxing to get my mind off of everything and just be silly and normal for a while. He told me stories about the people who came into the shelter he ran. He seemed like he loved his work so much and I knew that he did it all with his own money and out of the goodness of his heart. He is truly an amazing person and I have so much respect for him.
     
    After breakfast, Michael was awake so I bundled him up and put him in his stroller. He and I went for a walk through the gardens and I think it relaxed and awed him almost as much as it did me. The grounds of the estate were as beautiful, if not more so, than the inside of the house and I felt very blessed to be a part of it.
     
    When we got back to the house, I was delighted to see that Alex was home. I fed and bathed Michael and tucked him in for his afternoon nap and then I sat down for coffee with Alex. I could tell there was something troubling him and when I asked he said, “There was an industrial accident at my plant in Kentucky. Five of my employees were killed and another twenty seriously injured. I have to fly over there… right away.”
     
    “Oh no! Alex that’s terrible, I’m so sorry. What happened?”
     
    “They’re not sure yet. It’s being investigated. I’ve been told on a preliminary basis that there was some type of electrical malfunction. I have to go and make sure the families of the victims are taken care of. I also have to make sure the rest of my employees are safe and that we get the plant back up and running as soon as possible.”
     
    “How long will you be gone?”
     
    He shook his head. “I’m sorry Vicki. I just don’t know. I know this is a bad time, but I thought maybe you and Michael could come with me…”
     
    “Oh no Alex. I’m sorry, it’s not that I wouldn’t love to be with you and I know that Michael will miss you, but I worry about him so much, taking him out so soon and putting him on a plane and
