Summary
Charles was 16 when he ran away from home and found himself in the kitchen at Café Vivienne. Caught in the act of stealing a roll of bread, he expected to be arrested. Instead he found a home, a purpose, a family.
Of course, none of that lasted. Aunt Vivi—his beloved mentor—died six months ago, and now Charles’s livelihood is under threat when her estranged great nephew—and his former best friend—Edwin, returns to claim his inheritance.
It won’t be a happy reunion.
Crystal snorted. “What did the Lawyer from Hell want? Don’t tell me that prick’s causing problems again? What’s his name? Edward?”
“Edwin,” Charles corrected, the name rolling off his tongue automatically.
Crystal looked at him sharply, her gaze lingering. Charles kept his eyes fixed on the edge of the table. He could imagine what she was thinking, though she could only know the tiniest details. She didn’t know the full story. Even Aunt Vivi hadn’t known that.
“He’s coming here,” he said. “Apparently Aunt Vivi wanted him to stay here for a bit. So, he’s arriving today, though no one’s said anything about how long for, or what he’s planning on doing with the place. Guess I’ll have to ask him that myself when he shows up.”
