"Okay. If that's what both of you say," Alice said, shrugging her shoulders.

"Lee, are you going to the next class?" Alice asked, turning to him.

"I have this really huge family emergency to deal with, so I'm sorry, but I won’t be available."

"Huge family emergency, huh."

"Yes. My mother's side of the family. You wouldn't know them since you're on my father's side."

"Okay. We'll get going then," she said, pulling Nora along.

"You will still wash my shirt, Nora," he mouthed at her.

"Not a chance in hell," she mouthed back.

"Prick," she mouthed again.

And so, Nora and Alice went to class together.

"Are you sure he hasn't been acting weirder than usual?" Alice asked Nora.

"I don't think he has. He always acts like that," she answered hurriedly.

"Are you okay? Your cheeks are crimson."

"Phew. This cold. I must be coming down with the flu," she said, rubbing her palms together and putting them on her arms.

"We're in July. It is anything but cold right now."

    Nora swallowed as she looked up at Lee, his eyes shining playfully.“What else do you want?” she asked, breathless.“I want a kiss. Right here,” he said, tapping on his lips.Immediately, the dream-like state he had induced her in vanished.“Are you dumb?” she asked.“What? You asked me the question and I just gave my answer.”“Are you seeing this hallway? It is literally packed.”“So if it wasn't packed, you would totally kiss me right now. It's fine, I'll honor your request. We can go somewhere more private. I'm not all for PDA.”"You're gross.""Well I've been called a handful of things all praises. it's a first to get called gross. look at us making new milestones in our wonderful relationship. Just say yes."“There is no way I'm doing that. In fact, there is no way that I'm even paying for your laundering. You were the one who bumped into me and I'm starting to think you did that intentionally,” she said, pointing in his face, moving away.He pulled her hand, bringing her even cl

    Finals were fast approaching—the final exams before they finally became graduates.“He said what?” Nora asked, munching on her chips.“He told me to get out of the office. He didn't want to see me again,” Alice's voice broke at the last words.Nora stopped munching her chips, gently rubbing her back.“It'll be okay, Alice. Remember that there are five stages of grief.”“Grief?”“Sorry, wrong word—but that's what he's going through now. I mean, you have to look at it from his point of view. He hasn’t exactly seen any bad thing being done, so it's quite normal that he'll side with them.”“But they're bad people. It's plain to see,” she said, sniffling.“They are, but it just hasn't come to his attention yet. He'll come around. He's your father. You just have to relax, and everything is going to be fine.”They moved from the bench, heading towards the class.“Oh Alice.” A haughty voice called behind her.It was stupid Octavia. Unsurprisingly, nothing was found on her phone or in her room

    The silence hung heavy in the study as Alice and her father looked at each other, panting.“Was it an accident or was Mom murdered? Just like they almost murdered me a few days ago.”“Alice, your mind is reeling and your imagination is playing tricks on you.”“Dad.”“And I am not going to have any of that in my house,” he said, banging his hand on the table.“For years, I have ignored every struggle you put up with your stepmother and your stepsister. You have pulled every trick in the book to make their life miserable and I have kept quiet about that, thinking it was just a phase and you were going to pass through because it was just typical childhood jealousy,” he continued.“Dad…”“I have had enough of your childish antics. I was there the day your mother died. I watched as she wanted to come down the area only to stumble, breaking her neck. I was there.” His shoulders slumped as he looked at Alice, pain in his voice.“Were you really there, Dad?”“Oh now you're saying I'm crazy to

    “Ma'am, everyone in the garden saw him wielding a weapon to hurt Mrs. Willis. There's no rebutting that.”“You saw wrong. He didn't do anything of that nature. You don't know what you're talking about.”“I understand your emotions are running high, maybe because he's a close peer of yours, but I urge you not to be an obstruction of justice.”“I won't let you take him.”“You don't have a choice or say in this, ma'am,” the officer explained quietly.The other officers proceeded to pull Grant from the bed, placing him in handcuffs.Grant started to wriggle against their hold, shouting.“Sir, please calm down,” the officer said, pressing him down to put the handcuffs on him.Grant's hands fought against the handcuffs.“You can't take him. He's in bad shape. Are you not seeing his injury is bleeding? He needs to stay in the hospital just for a while, not go to some cell.” She pushed against the officer.“This man here is a criminal,” the officer said, pointing at Grant. “He hurt a woman, a

    Lee stepped outside to answer a call.“Dad?”“Hey, champ. Where are you?”“I, um…”“You’re um what?”“I had to go to the hospital. Alice is in the hospital.”“Alice. Who’s Alice? Is she one of your little girlfriends? Wait, hold on. Do you mean your uncle’s wife? That Alice?”“Yes, Dad,” he answered quietly.“Well, damn. Is she sick? Is she dead? I sure hope so,” he snorted.Lee winced as he listened to his father’s insensitive voice. “She’s okay, Dad. Nothing happened to her, and that’s not really nice,” he added quietly.“Excuse me? What did you just say to me?”“I… It wasn’t really that important. I was just talking to myself.”“I sure hope you were,” he said.“...”“You have no business being there. I need you to come back right now. We just found something that’s going to blow your mind and kick Travis out of that CEO position on his feet. Oh, I forgot—he can’t walk,” he said, laughing.Lee cringed behind the phone. He didn’t really want to take over the company or have anything
