Tyler's POV
We had our meetings with the Azure's mayor and representatives of the other municipalities, together with the resort and restaurant owners and their representatives all over the island. I wanted to call Ara, but the meeting dragged on forever, and I couldn't believe I couldn't reply to her text message; and I know she seldom texts me first since I always initiate our conversation.
"Where is Arabella, Tyler?" My father asked after our meeting, and I heavily sighed as I looked at my dad. I know he never interfered with my love life, but after what happened to Emily and me, he always asked me if I had a new girlfriend. When I brought Arabella as my date for my parents' wedding anniversary, I could see the happiness on my father's face.
"I almost messed up, dad, but I felt glad I could win her back," I responded.
