The original Yvonne would have been heartbroken by this scene.
But this Yvonne was not that Yvonne. She watched them with a cold sneer, then turned and walked back to her room.
Leaning against the sofa by the window, Yvonne pulled out her phone and ordered a strawberry cake online.
By the time the cake arrived, the sky outside was dark.
No one had thought of her. It was as if she had been completely forgotten by the entire Spencer family.
Yvonne opened the cake box. Inside was a small, four-inch strawberry cake, a pathetic little thing compared to Queena’s three-tiered tower.

She clutched her chest, knowing this was the lingering emotion of the body’s original owner.
The pain was immense.
The man before her was Matthew Gonzalez, the person she had loved most in the world. And because she loved him, she had given him the power to destroy her.
The young girl’s memories rushed back, overwhelming her.
