Capítulo 23: Chapter 23: I Can Explain

Austin King is single no more! In an interview on Talk Live, he confirmed that he was, in fact, seeing someone. He wouldn't give any details or say who the woman was just that he was happy. Fans everywhere took to social media with a wide range of reactions. Some wished him well, and some fans went as far to wish the other woman would fall off the face of the earth.

"I was wondering when you were going to show up," Laura said as Shelby entered the room.

Laura King had been like the mother she'd never had while she and Austin were together. She knew the woman would have been there after they parted ways too, but it was just too difficult to be around anyone from his family.

"Mrs. King," Shelby said as she walked toward the bed.

"None of that nonsense. It's too formal."

"All right. How are you feeling?" Shelby asked as she took a seat by Laura's bed.
