Maya gazed at the distant sky with her puffy, reddish eyes as she sat on the deck with her feet submerged in the lake water.
"Do you need more tissues?"
Maya flinched. She had completely forgotten that Marcelo was sitting beside her. She was driving straight to Haven's to cry her eyes out when Marcelo intercepted her as she was driving her car out of the black iron gates of Dalton's estate.
When Marcelo offered to take her somewhere special to make her feel better, she immediately accepted. She realized that Haven has her own issues, her arranged marriage saga. She didn't want to selfishly burden Haven with hers. Natalia is still out of the picture. Laura is still in her newly engaged phase. She has no one to turn to for comfort except Marcello, who is offering.
She did cry and spilled out, explaining the whole situation to Marcelo. He listened without judging, and a few hours later, he is still keeping her company as she wallows in misery.
