“They have my eyes,” Sebastian Carter said in the middle of the restaurant, unable to tear his gaze away from the three children. “Hannah, tell me who their father is.”
Every conversation in the upscale Chicago restaurant came to an abrupt stop.
Sebastian stood beside his fiancée, Olivia Bennett, one hand resting confidently on her waist. The diamond engagement ring on her finger sparkled beneath the crystal chandeliers.
Five-year-old triplets Ethan, Sophie, and Lucas all looked up at the same time.
Lucas wrinkled his nose and pointed at Sebastian.
“He makes the same face I make when Mom won’t let me have another piece of cake.”
For a split second, Hannah felt the past crash back into her life.
But she refused to look away.
Without saying a word, she unlocked her phone, started recording, and slipped it into her open handbag.
She hadn’t come to The Grand Oak, one of Chicago’s most exclusive restaurants, expecting to run into her ex-husband.
