Chapter 20
The throbbing in his head was not making anything better and no matter how gently he massaged his temples it didn't let up. He knew this but he still continued to scroll on his phone, trying to absorb everything he saw on screen. For the past hour, he had been scrolling through social media. The news of everything that happened outside his house had blown up and barely gave him time to breathe as someone would post their opinion every second.
It had been two weeks since the incident and Casey had done as much as he could to keep it from spreading but the internet was too fast, even for his money. Celebrity newsrooms and fan accounts would relentlessly share their thoughts on the entire situation. As expected, the public got wind of everything that happened and once again Klaire was public enemy number one. A lot of people were calling Ava an angel for dropping the charges against Klaire

Ava frowned as she ate the last of the fruit basket. It was filled with some of the most delicious fruits: the juiciest grapes, strawberries, and mangoes. It was truly something she would definitely go and buy for herself in the future. Ava wanted to buy one now but she was leaving the country in a few hours and surely could not finish it in that amount of time. As she sat on her couch looking at her suitcases Ava wondered if what she was doing was a good idea. It most definitely was not but she still wanted to try. She wanted to see if she could get those two to be happy together. This was the most trouble she has had with a couple and because of that, the desire to succeed was great. After the entire situation with the notepad, Ava had extra sessions with Klaire, she was desperate to pick her brain and see how she thought. It was th

When Ava got to the resort, she was surprised at the number of people who were there. It was obvious that most of the people there were Klaire’s friends. She could hear them screeching and shouting from the moment she walked into the resort. As soon as she knew what the scene looked like, she instantly wanted to turn back. Ava was not a party person, but she should have expected this sort of thing when it came to Klaire. She’s definitely the type of person to try and invite every single important person she knows to show them that she’s getting married to Casey.Since the place was reserved for them only, she was able to grasp the full amount of people that would be attending. It honestly looked like the hotel had not been cleared out because of all the people there. But it was ten times louder than a normal hotel and so it was obvious that there was something happening. It seemed like a lot of her friends had plenty of time on their hand

The next day, all the extraneous activities that Klaire wanted to do started. Casey would have preferred if he could stay in the hotel but since he was the fiance, he was going to be dragged into everything that she wanted to do. It seemed like Ava was also not a fan of the things they were doing and decided to stay in her room. He envied her. Even though they were in a fancy resort with all the things that were needed for a vacation, Klaire still insisted on leaving. Casey understood that there were interesting activities that the resort did not provide, but still, going zip-lining was not something he would want to do right away. He was not even fully recovered from the jet lag. It also bothered him that it seemed like Klaire invited everyone on her contact list. The amount of noise that he was going to have to deal with was not something he was prepared to deal with. Just in the first couple of hours when everyone started to pour in,

When the group had returned, Casey had long returned to his room, he was not sure if Ava was still down by the pool but he would have guessed that she returned to her room once the place began to get noisy again. They did not talk for too long and when Casey had gone back up, he had fallen asleep pretty easily. It was only when Klaire woke him up, that he became aware of everything going on.“Are you feeling more rested now?” Klaire asked him, as she was laid on the other side of the bed.Casey groaned in response and Klaire smiled at him. “We went down to the beach and ate a lot of food. There are so many tourists here so it took a while to do the things we wanted. When it’s just the two of us, I want us to take a boat trip somewhere, obviously nowhere too far but still.”Casey smiled. “Sure, that doesn’t sound too bad.”“Do you want to go down and get

Ava smiled at Klaire as she sat back down in the room. It was the only room they could get that was away from the noise and somewhat like an office. There were couches and a coffee table, but everything looked tropical. The coffee table was literally made out of bamboo and there were various paintings on the walls of coconut trees and flowers and all colorful things of a sort.Klaire returned her smile with an awkward laugh. She crossed her ankles and leaned back into the couch. There were a few moments of silence and Ava knew that it was her job to move past it all and put on a brave face. Besides, she was over what Klaire had done. Mostly.“Alright. It seems like forever since we had one of these sessions huh?” Ava chuckled, trying to lighten the mood.“Yeah… it’s been a while.” Klaire nodded.“So I think we should just get the rough stuff out of the way first.

To say that Ava had not known peace since meeting Casey and Klaire would be an understatement. She did not know why in her mind, she imagined ever getting moments of peace when she was around Klaire and Casey. She guessed it was because of Klaire's change of behaviour that she had some hope. But as always, it was a problem that was obviously the fault of Klaire. It was actually about her change of behavior. Or, lack thereof, she would say.It was the day after Ava came to her epiphany about Klaire’s behavior. She was spending the day making calls and doing research on the best ways to try and help Klaire. In the past, she had dealt with people who had similar problems but never to the degree that Klaire had it. Ava concluded that it was because Klaire was so famous that it definitely changed the way her brain functioned and differentiated her from the other patients she had.Ava was using the office space she was given by the hotel.

“I’m calling off the wedding.”That was the first thing that Casey said as soon as the door closed and Ava braced herself for the hell-storm that would follow. She was not facing them and wished she could remain so. Ava had never dealt with a couple as problematic as this one. Toxic was not the word she would have used in the past but Klaire’s actions were borderline toxic. She manipulated Casey in order to get him to stay with her. Ava was not aware if it happened in the past but she did not want to assume and so she never brought the relationship to toxic. But problematic was the word she would use to describe their relationship in a heartbeat.“WHAT?!”Ava didn’t even flinch because she knew it was coming. When she sat on the couch and finally faced them, the two were standing opposite each other, heated expressions on both of their faces. But Klaire looked like she was seconds

Ava went looking for Casey, on the second day. She had not seen him at all since their conversation with Klaire and it seemed like neither did anyone else. He could have left the hotel or even the country for all they knew. She had asked the staff if they had seen him but got negative answers from all. There were a lot of empty rooms in the hotel since the guests took up around a third of the space.Two days was long enough to calm down and think things through properly. But with a situation as complicated and dense as this, Ava wondered if he would need more time. But all the times in the past when he was willing to break up with Klaire should help with his decision-making. It would take some time if this were a new thing. If Klaire and Casey had a normal relationship for all the time they were together and then he just found out that she was a fake person, then that would take a while to process, but since it was no news that Klaire was not the best pers
