Chapter 13

"Tori!" I hear a voice shout from my doorway. I poke my head out from the closet I'm currently in as I organize some student files. I see Oli waving to me with Charlotte beside him, a stroller beside her and Wren behind them. 

"Hey, it's home time already?" I ask as I walk out towards them.

"Yeah, you lost track of time?" Charlotte questions as Oli rushes to hug me.

"Yeah, I was doing some reorganizing," I explain as I pat Oli's head.

"Tori, why can't I go home with you today?" Oli questions looking up at me with a pout.

"I'm sorry, I have something really important to do today but you get to go to Wren's house right? Friday night is sleepover night for you boys isn't it?" I ask as I crouch down to his level, a soft smile on my face.

"Yes, sleepovers are fun," he says as he continues to pout.

"See? I want you to have as much fun as you can while you're there and then you can tell me everything when I see you, deal?" I ask, holding my hand out for him.

"Deal," he says as he grasps it and shakes it twice.

"So I hear your living with Jason and Oli now," Charlotte says wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.

"Things, things got a little complicated at my place. I'm just thankful Jason is letting me stay and putting up with my baggage," I sigh as I stand back up.

"He's not putting up with it, I'd know if he was and trust me he's not. He genuinely cares about you," she says in a reassuring voice. "Now that we got that cleared, we have to get going, you have a meeting to get to right?" I look at my watch and see it's only fifteen minutes away from three-thirty.

"Yeah, I have to get going before the streets get heavy with cars," I reply.

"Okay boys, say bye and then we get going," Charlotte tells Oli and Wren. 

"Bye Tori," Oli says as he gives me another hug.

"Bye Oli, have fun okay," I tell him as I hug him back. Wren gives me a wave goodbye as they walk to the school exit. I quickly lock away whatever files I have left sitting out and grab my jacket and car keys as I close the door behind me. As soon as I'm out of the school I jog to the faculty parking lot, unlock my car getting in and veering out as if I'm in an action movie.

I can't believe I lost track of time considering what I have to do today. It takes me ten minutes to reach where I'm meeting him and as soon as I reach I'm tossing my keys to valet as I walk into the hotel. I look at my phone checking the time again as I hear my name being called.

"Mr. Davis," I call back as I walk towards him. 

"Thank you for meeting with me Ms. Marshall," Mr. Davis says shaking my hand. "Let's take a seat in the sitting area," he says pointing to his left. After getting my mom's will I called Mr. Davis in the morning to arrange a meeting to talk the finer details of the will. I figured it'd be easier for me to meet him at where he's staying instead of coming to Jason's house considering it's not my home.

"It was no problem, after all you're leaving back for Quebec soon so I thought it'd be best we deal with this," I answer.

"Have you read the contents of the will?" he questions as he places his briefcase on the table between us.

"I did, I read it when I got home from my shift," I reply.

《 Flashback

It's currently two in the morning and here I am in the kitchen freshly showered and in sweats plus a sweater ready to read the will I got earlier tonight. I take a sip of my tea to calm my nerves as I unseal the envelope.
