River's POV

"Men will sleep around with whatever slut in their way but in the end, they return to there wives."A female voice hissed right over my shoulder and I quickly turned to see Angelina standing before me with a smirk plastered on her face.

I wanted to reply to her cruelty but deep down I was being ripped to shreds because I knew, part of her segment had some truth in it.

I handed her the teddy bear and quickly walked out of the hospital barely containing myself as I sat on the bench trying to catch my breath.

I knew it was my fault, all my fault that they aren't a family now but I wanted him.

I still loved him, I always loved him better yet I never stopped loving him despite all the cruel accusations that came from his mouth.

I'm so stupid, how could I let something like this get past me.

All my thoughts were overpowering my feelings and before I knew I tear fell on my check along with many more.

"Are you ok?"A deep tone consoled and I quickly looked up to find a pair of dark brown eyes staring in my direction.

"Yeah I'm fine," I assured wiping my tears and he took a seat next to me extending his arms.

"I know you don't know me but do you want a hug?"He asked with a half smile and if the circumstances were different I never would have agreed."Whatever it is or whoever it is, it doesn't deserve for you to ruin your flawless complexion because trust me anyone would die for a smile coming from your beautiful face."He continued to soothe while hugging me and thank goodness he didn't see my face because I was blushing harder than a cherry red tomato.

"Thank you-" I began but was cut off by his phone ringing, he quickly picked it up replied with an ok than closed the phone.

"Please stay here I want to check up on my daughter for a couple of minutes than we can go get a bite to eat." He offered with a smirk on his face and I rolled my eyes chuckling.

"I don't even know your name and you just want me to go with you-"

"The names Ryan. Ryan Rhodes and may I ask what your name is or is that forbidden?"He smiled causing me to laugh."You see I knew that smile was worth millions."He added and I bit my lip blushing.

Gosh, he's a player but he's so damn hot.

His muscular structure, looks and his choice of words would get any women to come running into his arms but I figured I had to start somewhere if I wanted to forget Ethan.

"River Campbell."

"Nice to meet you so are we on for the food because I'm starving and if you don't want to I'm going to be very upset and grouchy and then yell at all my clients back at my studio soon no one wants me to do anything for them, I go bankrupt,and I die of starvation. Would you want that?" he pretended to bawl and I chuckled rolling my eyes.

This man is unbelievable.

   "Ok," I mumbled and he wrapped his hand around his ear.

"Wait what I didn't hear you?" He cackled and I sighed scratching my head.

"I agree to eat with you only for the sake of your employee's."I approved and he snorted running a hand around his shaven jawline.

"So it's not because of my dashing good looks." He winked causing me to glare at him.

"Go check on your daughter," I commanded sitting on the bench crossing my arms.

I had to admit he was very hot, no no drop dead gorgeous and his brown hair makes a great addition to his looks.
