Claudia POV
The car drove into the basement parking lot. Ray held my hand as we went up to the penthouse using the elevator.
I didn't know why, but I somehow felt nervous and antsy. I got excited thinking about the possible future that we had with Aurora and Lara, and how we could build a family together.
Thus, when he was holding my hand, I didn't try to pull it away, nor did I try to resist.
But as we were holding hands for a while, I realized that my rosy-colored glasses began to crack, because our relationship was built on a humiliating contract, and I was basically nothing in Ray's life.
I was just a pastime, a thing that he played with because he was bored and also a little petty over our breakup back then.
I wanted to pull my hand away so I could snap out of this daydream, but the elevator reached the top floor right at that moment, and Ray pulled me out of the elevator immediately.
