Chapter 15 Summary: “Cassie”

Cassie’s car breaks down on their way to the zoo the next day, and Cassie calls Iris for help. Though Iris is too busy to come to the zoo, Cassie makes it her mission to get Iris to see Sophie more. Sophie and Lucia become best friends almost instantly, and Camila asks Cassie what Aiden is like when she notices her giggling at his texts.

Chapter 16 Summary: “Aiden”

Aiden picks Cassie and Sophie up from the zoo before returning to work, and he can’t stop thinking about them the whole time. He calls his boss to talk about handing off some of his duties to his sous-chef so he can spend more time with Sophie. He receives a call from Iris, not knowing she drove them to the zoo, and Iris warns him about starting a relationship with Cassie in case something happens between them and ends up hurting Sophie. Aiden is mad at Iris for suggesting it but realizes he hasn’t really thought about what would happen if something went wrong between him and Cassie.

Chapter 17 Summary: “Cassie”

Cassie tells Wanda about sleeping with Aiden, and Wanda advises her that she can’t plan her life around her past with him. Sophie has a day off from school, so she, Cassie, and Aiden go to the park together.
