217 Heart attack

After freshening up, they arrived at the huge lunch Lara had arranged on the patio as it was a beautiful day, worth enjoying. 

Later, Santiago dropped Emma and Alicia at Killian's house that was just five minutes away from his own. 

A housekeeper was there to welcome them. She greeted the ladies and took them inside. It was already dark and they were retiring to bed as they were tired from travelling. 

When Emma and Alicia were in the living room alone, it felt like one could cut the tension between them with a knife.

How could she forget Emmaline Costas? This wickedly yet beautiful barbie doll was her teenage nightmare. How could she forget that this woman forced her to drop out of college?
