00:03.

Elena could not move. Her feet felt stuck to the marble floor, and every sound in the ballroom quietly disappeared.

On the giant screen, a girl leaned toward a boy and closed her eyes. She looked content. She looked like someone who did not know the world was watching.

"Elena." Arthur's hand tightened around hers. "Come with me. We can leave through the side door."

She looked at him, and then at the people around them. Three hundred faces. Some were shocked. Some smiled behind the

She looked content. She looked like someone who did not know the world was watching.00:09."Elena." Arthur's hand tightened around hers. "Come with me. We can leave through the side door."She looked at him, and then at the people around them. Three hundred faces. Some were shocked. Some smiled behind their hands. Some were already lifting their phones. In the crowd, Ingrid stood with her mouth open, her eyes wide and worried.If I run, they will remember me running.00:14."No," she said."Elena—""No." She pulled her hand free. Her fingers were cold, but her voice was steady, and that surprised her. "If I leave now, this will be the only story they tell."She walked toward the stage.The crowd opened in front of her. Her emerald dress whispered across the floor. She could hear her own heartbea

  • The Boy I Forgot to Hate   24. Don't Wake Me Up

    Julian knocked on Elena’s dorm at six in the morning. She opened it with messy hair and red eyes. She had not slept all night. Busy thinking about Lucia’s offer."I changed my mind," Julian said out of the blue while holding out a paper cup. "Hot chocolate and an unhealthy amount of marshmallows."A grin formed at her lips, she took it slowly and whispered. "You remember that?""What? Of course." He faked a cough. "I mean, you have a very particular taste in everything, especially if it's about your hot chocolate."Elena almost smiled, she sipped it while savoring the lingering taste at her palate. "Why now?""Because I read that forum thread all night." His voice was rough. "I can say no and watch her hurt you. Or I can say yes and stand next to you when she tries. But I have three rules.""Three what?""One, you can stop this at any time. Two, nobody says a bad word about you near me. Three..." He looked at the floor. "I will end things with Valeria. I never said yes to her. I only

    Elena was too shocked to move.On the other side of the glass, Valeria Montes lifted her phone and waved it like a small flag. Then she stepped back into the dark garden and was gone."Elena?" Lucia gently took the phone from her hand and read the screen. Her face did not change, but her fingers tightened around the case. "I see. As expected. What a bitchy little woman she is.""Aunt Lucia, I'm sorry. I never wanted to bring trouble into your home—""Hush." Lucia gave the phone back and held Elena's cold hands between her own. "You are a guest in this house. Nobody will hurt you here."She was out there the whole time, Elena thought. She watched everything.DING-DONG.Both women turned toward the front of the house."Ah," Lucia said softly. A small, polite smile appeared on her face, one Elena had never seen before. "It seems we have another guest."***Valeria walked into the dining room like a movie star.She wore a cream coat and carried a bouquet of white roses. Her blonde hair wa

  • The Boy I Forgot to Hate   22. A Surprising Thanksgiving

    The Vega estate looked exactly like the kind of place Elena Castillo had spent her whole life walking past.Wrought-iron gates. A circular driveway lined with maple trees burning copper in the late November light. A front door so tall it could have swallowed her entire dorm room.She stood on the porch clutching a box of cookies tied with a plain ribbon, her heart pounding far louder than the doorbell she hadn't dared to press.It's just dinner. You're just a girl bringing cookies to her dad's old friend.Her dad hadn't helped. "Eat everything they put on your plate," Robert Castillo had ordered over the phone that morning, his cleaning crews booked solid with holiday deep-cleans. "And wash your dishes. If not, Dominic will think I raised a princess."Elena lifted her hand toward the bell.The door swung open first."Elena!"A petite woman in a cream cardigan pulled her into a hug that smelled of cinnamon and cedar. Elena stiffened for half a second, then melted into it, her throat su

  • The Boy I Forgot to Hate   21. A Huge Favor

    “QUIET. My decision is final. Since the root of this entire problem comes from just one person, she is the one who has to leave, as much as it pains me to make this call. Ms. Elena Castillo, I have to revoke your scholarship—”Before Professor Santiago could finish speaking, the door to the office opened with a loud thud in the suddenly silent room.A broad-shouldered, middle-aged man stepped inside, wearing a sharply tailored custom gray suit. His gray hair was neatly styled, and a pair of sharp, charismatic eyes gleamed behind thin glasses.Dominic Vega.The aura he brought into the room was overwhelming, his authority clear even without saying a word.Julian immediately looked away, avoiding his dad's eyes, and went completely silent. Beside him, Arthur watched his father closely, his eyebrows raised.Meanwhile, Elena Castillo kept her head bowed low, her fingers tightly laced together. Guilt gnawed at her heart. This was all because of her—both of Dominic's sons were now in troubl

    "That photo... that post on the forum... it was you, wasn't it?!" Julian demanded, his voice trembling violently. "I did everything you wanted, Val! I tried so hard to stay away from Elena just like you asked!""You're accusing me without a single shred of proof, Jules? Why would I waste my time and energy on some poor college girl?" Valeria dodged, folding her arms and turning her face away to avoid his hawkish glare."Drop the act! I know your playbook inside and out!" Julian snapped."Oh, really?" Valeria challenged, jutting her chin out with fire in her eyes. "Those are pretty bold accusations, Jules. You better watch yourself—you don't want to cross me.""Or what? You're gonna use your empty threats on me again, huh? Guess what, they don't work anymore. You crossed the line when you got Elena's scholarship revoked. That was my breaking point, and I'm done playing your games!" Julian declared, turning on his heel to walk away.Panic seized Valeria. She suddenly realized she had re
