Eliana’s POV

After getting off the phone with Derrick, I rose from the bed and left the bedroom. Dragging my feet lazily, I made my way to the kitchen. It was barely noon but I was more tired than someone that had just survived a stressful twenty four hours. On getting to the kitchen, I realized that I had no idea what I wanted for breakfast. And the fact that there were a lot of options made things worse. Derrick had seen to it that the house was stocked after we moved in. For the first time

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 151

    Eliana’s POV The look in Derrick’s eyes as he stared at me could only be described as guilt. The hand that had been about to carry food to his mouth had stopped moving, so had every other part of his body. If I had to guess, I would say his heart had stopped too. He was the perfect illustration of a deer caught in the headlights with no means of escape. All my worries from the moment he first mentioned her name came rushing back immediately and it put me in a state of heightened suspicion that I knew I wasn’t getting rid of anytime soon. I stared at the screen of the phone again to be sure I hadn’t misread the name there. The letters stared back at me boldly while the phone continued ringing: Sasha. “Derrick? Who’s Sasha?” I asked. He remained still as he answered. “A colleague at my workplace. Can I have my phone?” He held his hand out to me. “Why did you lie when I asked about her earlier?” I let my gaze drop to his outstretched hand and then I shifted it to the phone in my ha

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 150

    Derrick’s POV I arrived home later that night to meet Eliana preparing dinner in the kitchen. From the moment I stepped into the house, I was welcomed by the strong, tantalizing aroma of pot roast. As I got closer to the kitchen, the air became thicker with the smell and it got to a point where it felt like I was already eating the roast. “Damn!” I exclaimed as I shuffled into the kitchen. The reaction was not just as a result of the wonderful scent wafting through the air but the breathtaking sight of Eliana at the counter also contributed to that. Eliana was dressed in nothing but a skimpy top that was nowhere near her lower abdomen and panties that was nothing but a thin strip of pink cloth that went around her hips and down the middle of her perfectly sculpted butt cheeks. She made a slow turn to look in my direction and her lips widened into an affectionate smile that nearly melted my heart. Her smile, coupled with the tantalizing image of her nipples poking through the m

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 149

    Derrick’s POV “Just who I was looking for,” a familiar voice said, breaking into my thoughts. And just like that, the train of thoughts that I’d tried too hard to get in order was interrupted, dissolving into the recess of my mind where other lost thoughts usually disappeared to. I threw my head backwards and let out a frustrated groan at the loss. Sasha stood before me, her eyes narrowing in curiosity. “Should I be worried?”Readjusting in the chair, I gave her a look that I hoped would express my irritation. “Yes. You should be worried that I might not be able to stop myself from strangling you for chasing my thoughts away.” She stared at me blankly for a moment, then her lips slowly spread into a smile that immediately eased the tension that was already gathering in my frontal lobe. “Oh. That explains the ogre-like reaction. But…I can fix that for you, you know?” Her smile took a seductive turn and she bit one corner of her bottom lip. I did a quick sweep of the lounge to make

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 148

    Eliana’s POV Despite the cold weather that morning, my palms were sweaty as the cab tore down the asphalt. When the cab finally rolled to a stop, minutes later, I alighted from it feeling even less confident than I did when I left the house. To everyone else, it was just a normal Monday morning, but for me, it was the day I was the day my suspension was over. The day I was returning to Emerald after Oliver’s persistent antagonism led to the absence of school in my life for a month. Left to me, I would have postponed my resumption for a few more days, but Annabelle and Derrick wouldn’t hear the last of it. After numerous pleas, promises and assurances from them, I had no choice but to agree to resume that morning. But as I walked down the pavement leading to the large school gates, I started to feel like I had made a mistake in allowing them to affect my decision. However, it was too late. I was here now and going back was totally out of my options. So I did the only reasonable thing

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 147

    Eliana’s POV Four days after that fateful night where Jared ran his mouth, I was sitting alone in the living room when Derrick entered. He’d been away since the previous night and the thought of where he might have spent the night left me confused and worried. But he seemed perfectly okay as he strolled into the living room as if everything was alright in the world. His world, at least. The past four days had gone by with little to no interaction between us. He avoided me like a plague, barely even making eye contact with me. It stung hard that he treated me that way but there was absolutely nothing that I could do about it. Annabelle had once tried to help me talk to him but he’d shut her down and I told her not to worry again. Hopefully, one day, he would finally decide I was worth his words and attention. As it turned out, today was that day. As soon as he entered, his gaze traveled directly to me. I pretended not to notice at first, but then he started walking towards me. My he
