Another silence followed, stretching a minute longer than the last. Katerina swallowed, the thoughts too heavy to decide.How was she supposed to make the ruling when she wasn't so sure about it?“Is there something else that you want to discuss about the designs? Or any workload that you would like me to help with? Anything?” Lucas inquired, trying to get rid of the tension in the air.Katerina noticed what he was trying to do and she laughed it off, secretly thankful to him for noticing her discomfort.“Designs?” Kate gave it a thought for a second, “I don't think there's any. That's all we have got.” She nodded to the laptop.“What about those secret designs? I promise I won't tell anyone about it. I’m good at keeping secrets, you know.”Lucas joked, keeping his voice low.Kate laughed lightly, letting go of the tension. While working together, she used to keep some designs a secret, perhaps one or two of

KATERINA Lucas looked at me doubtfully, “You're not kidnapping me right?” He joked, pushing himself from the wall and walked to me, hesitantly taking my hand.“That's bold coming from someone who is afraid of being kidnapped.” He growled upon hearing my words, however, he didn't pull away. Instead, he held onto me tightly.I led the way, taking the back door that led to the backyard. I let Luca's hand go and ran to the flower garden, recalling how I used to spend a lot of my time there.Lucas followed me as though he was compelled to do so or something.“Do you remember how we used to play here? Getting all drenched and Nanny would get mad at us?” I asked him and he nodded.“How in the world would I forget such a precious memory?” He said, his voice cheerful.I looked around, searching for something and my eyes stopped immediately when I found it. I walked to the green h

KATERINA After driving for what felt like forever, the car finally came to a stop before the massive gates. I drew a deep breath, something twisting inside my chest. Hard to ignore.The gates were painted blue compared to the black painting when I left. The memories of the past surfaced. Hard for me to shut it down like I have always done.I recalled how Stephanie kicked me out with a smile on her face after my father’s death, holding a glass of wine in her right hand as she watched me from the balcony.I remembered how I begged her to let me stay. However, she didn't care that much about my plea. As if Lucas sensed my reactions, he turned to look at me, his eyes full of concern. I blinked back tears and nodded, letting him know I was ready.He nodded back in understanding, stretched his hand out of the window and entered the password which was my birthday, and the gates slid open. I took a deep b

KATERINA I was expecting anything. Perhaps a necklace or something else. However, I never expected the gift to be a key of all possible gifts.“For the house,” Lucas said as though it was pretty obvious.“House?” I repeated his statement, the frown on my face only deepening as I tried to make sense of what house he was talking about.“Yeah, Mackenzie's Villa. Which used to be your home.” He explained when he noticed the confusion on my face, my eyes widening when I heard his words.“What? Mackenzie’s Villa? How?” I asked, confirming if I heard it right or if my ears were playing some dumb game on me.“Please tell me this is not a joke because I swear I’ll never forgive you.” I threatened, my eyes never leaving his face as I tried to read his reaction.If my memory still served me right. I remembered the woman refusing to give up the house when my lawyer and I pursued her.

KATERINA Releasing a deep sigh, I collapsed on the high backed chair and closed my eyes, letting them rest after spending the whole day staring at the papers and computer. Thanks to the heavens I was done with the day’s work. There wasn't that much work to begin with because Lucas took care of everything while I was away. To be honest, I was thankful for his help because I couldn't imagine the amount of work that would be waiting on my working desk if he wouldn't have stepped in to help. I pushed the chair back, standing up and headed to the water station, fetching myself a glass of water. I have been sitting for long hours and that wasn't good for my health. I walked to the furthest end of the office to have a good view of Aurelian city, the floor to ceiling glass wall working to my advantage. God, I couldn't believe there would come a time when I would need to leave all this behind

KATERINA I wasn't expecting Lucas to remember my birthday. That's why I didn't tell him it was going to be my birthday because I thought…he forgot the exact date.“You thought I forgot about it?” He asked, creasing his eyebrows and emotions that I couldn't wrap my head around crossed his blue eyes.He looked somewhat disappointed or something in between.“I don't know. Sometimes we tend to forget about little details that aren't that important in our lives.” I shrugged nonchalantly. Letting him know I wouldn't be offended if he forgot about it. A small smile tugged on my lips, looking normal as if it didn't cause that faint discomfort at the tip of my stomach.“I would forget about everything, but not your birthday Kate.” He called me by the nickname which he loved to use.“I never did. Not even a single year for the past four years.” He was quiet, letting the words sink and his eyes never leaving mine.“Whenever it was that date of the month, I would visit the park we used to go to

KATERINA “Sorry for the delayed response, I was in the bathroom.” Lucas apologised, running his hand through his damp hair.“It-It’s okay. I think I should be the one apologising for calling you this late.” I let out a small laugh so that the conversation couldn't sound awkward.Damn it! What was I thinking when I called at this hour of the night?Perhaps I should have waited till tomorrow to call him. I swallowed when I gave it a thought. And David's words echoing in my help wasn't helping at all. It only made me feel more words.“You can call anytime.” Lucas responded way too fast. Perhaps he noticed the war going on in my head or maybe, he saw it on my face. “I called to inform you that…I did it. We did it!” The corner of my lips curved into a small smile as I told him about the news.“I thought you should know since you helped with the designs.” I elaborated so that he would understand the reason behind my call.A big smile took over his features, his blue eyes shining bright.
