CHAPTER 41

JENNA’S POV

My head throbbed before my eyes opened. The air was thick with something far from the scent of a hospital room—it was musty.

I rubbed my eyes in circles as I tried to adjust to the dark room.

I looked around, no windows.

A dim light flickered above me, it was more or less useless at it barely shone bright enough to even see around the room.

When I tried to get up, the pounding in my head doubled, so I retreated back to my previous position.

    CHAPTER 119ISABELLE’S POV“This is…how? I mean, how did you manage to get all of this?” I said, sounding almost out of breath as I flipped through the file. “You meant to say thank you?” Damien says over my shoulder, but I don’t look his way. I’m too engrossed in what I’m looking at. As much as I knew they were fake, they looked really believable. Every evidence that once and might have connected me to the death of Elena now pointed all to Rob. “Nice huh?” Damien assumed. “With Rob gone, we can finally be together again. Live the life we’ve dreamed.”It feels like the air has stilled around me. I keep my arms folded against my chest, turning my gaze away from the file. “Don’t you think we should find another way around this?” My voice goes small, it’s unlike me. Damien doesn’t answer right away, instead he moves away to the center of the room before lighting his cigar. “I’m talking to you, Damien,” I called out, a little louder than before. I can hear the anger brimming in his

    CHAPTER 118JENNA’S POV“Are you still brooding over what Rob did last week?” Cassy says over the video call, managing to chew so lightly on her French toast. “No, but I have every right to still be mad at him. I mean! You know how long I’d been working my butts off just to secure that deal with the Craters…..”“Yes, but he misses you, Jenna! Don’t you see?”My chair made a small creak as I turned around, my eyes following in the same suit as it orbited hard into my skull and back. I didn’t know what irritated me more. The thought of Rob or the mere mention of him. “I'd rather remain blind, thank you.”“You’re being stubborn.” Cassy clicked her tongue aggressively. “I see the way your eyes soften when I bring him up. Do you a favour and quit lying to yourself.”Me? Stubborn? I could go on to beat the allegations but that could only get me more talks about Rob that I didn’t want to hear about. “I’ve got work to do, bye!”The call ended right before Cassy could even protest. I let ou

    CHAPTER 117ROB’S POV“Seems here he’s been in this school all his life.” Phil muttered, his fingers scratched at his beard as he continued to flip through the pages. “Poor guy, this place was his life.”Turns out Damien had been enrolled in this boarding school since he was a child up until he’d left for college. I couldn’t help but wonder why it was so. “Can we have the lady back here, I’ve got some questions.” I said, still fixed on the file I was reading. Phil dialed into his phone and the lady waltzed in almost immediately. “You asked for me?” She asked, leaning casually into her seat. “Yes!” I replied hurriedly. “Uhm lady…”“Call me Martha, dear.”“Right! Martha. You knew Damien very well, didn’t you?”“Oh yes!” Her voice sang beautifully. “He was amongst our brightest students, too hard to not pick interest into. Sadly his mother passed just before he got admitted into our college.”I couldn’t imagine how distraught he’d have been. “And his father?” I asked almost immedia

    CHAPTER 116ROB’S POV“Why are you avoiding me?” Isabelle’s frame falls into my liner of vision. Her face etched with annoyance and curiosity. I want to avoid talking with her right now, but I can’t. Not when she’s staring at me with that look. “I’m not avoiding you.” I uttered coldly, shutting my eyes as the warm sun pierced my skin. “You say you’re not, yet you’re doing exactly that!”“Whatever you want to believe then.”The frustration in her voice goes loud. “You better answer me right now, Rob…”“Or what?” I chimed in at the exact time, cutting her off. “Or what Isabelle? Take away my title of being jobless too? You’ve taken every other thing from me, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that was your next move.”The redness on her cheeks brightened. She was definitely angry. The least I wanted to do was indulge her and end up spilling everything I knew, for now, the distance between us was needed. “If you’ll excuse me, you’ve ruined my perfect little day.” I jerked up from my chair,

    CHAPTER 115JENNA’S POV“We’ve got at least three meetings coming up this week, two are already scheduled for today,” Angie utters quickly, her head bent downward as she continues to scroll on her laptop that’s wedged in between one arm. In all my years of working, I never felt this much pressure. I’m forced to pinch the bridge of my nose as I incline my seat backward. “What time is it?”“An hour and 30 minutes and another by 3pm.” I let out a sigh. This was what I’d prayed for so I couldn’t complain even if I wanted to. On the plus side it kept my mind far away from thinking about Rob. That night with him, the feel of his lips on mine again, his touch…….I shouldn’t even be thinking about that. The night we both shared last week was a mistake. I shouldn’t have let it happen, and that probably made Rob think he had another chance. The last few days had been filled with several calls and messages from him which I’d successfully ignored until now. Another flood of messages had just

    CHAPTER 114ROB’S POVIt's been almost a week since I last spoke with Phil and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t dying to hear from him again. I’d left in a hurry and totally forgotten to ask for his contact. “Coffee sir?” The blonde waitress that’d been serving the guy next to me finally came up to my table. Her smile was almost fake. I could see it fading. She hated her job. I hated my life. We shared one similarity. “One coffee please.” Or fuck it, who was I kidding? “Make that a beer instead.” If I weren’t staring directly into her eyes, I’d have missed that flicker of confusion. “Right away!” She said, before vanishing behind the huge black doors. I let out a huge breathy sigh. I was exhausted but not from any manual work. I was exhausted from running, pretending like I didn't already know the truth. Every second I saw Isabelle and the thought of strangling out the rest of what I didn't know from her mouth obstructed my thinking. So yeah, leaving my comfort to hide out in thi

    CHAPTER 110JENNA’S POVMy mind was made up, I didn’t care if I was playing a gamble this time. His hand slides down my arms, pushing them backwards so he’s clutching my wrists with one hand. The other hand trails the side of my neck. I’m enjoying the cold sting of his fingers on my warm skin. Ou
