Eliana’s POV

For the rest of that night, my mind entertained nothing other than the memory of the moment Derrick had confessed his love to me. And for each time that it replayed in my mind, I felt a stab of excitement to the chest that was more intense than anything I had ever felt. Derrick said he loved me. He’d opened his mouth and told me he loved me, not once, but three times. After Patrick, those three words had totally lost their meaning to me but hearing it from Derrick filled my heart

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 196

    Eliana’s POV Derrick eyes suddenly darkened with desire. I left his hand inside my gown and brought my hand back up to continue eating. But he wasn’t having any of it. He withdrew his hand in a flash and stood. “Get up.”“What?” I looked at him with genuine confusion. “Up, babygirl. We’re leaving.” His tone was calm but his eyes were not. They were raw with a desire so fierce that my heart began to race at the thought of what was in store for me. “But I’m not done eating.” I looked down at what was left in my plate. “I say we are.” Scanning the restaurant with his eyes, he gestured to one of the waiters. The waiter appeared in less than five seconds. “Sir?”“I would like the check, please.” Derrick’s voice was calm. Too calm. The waiter disappeared and replaced with the check which Derrick promptly paid off. Then he took my elbow. His grip was firm but he was gentle as he helped me to my feet. Looking into his eyes, I could just how much restraint it cost for him to be that con

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 195

    Eliana’s POV The world must have paused as Derrick and I entered the restaurant. The scattered sounds of animated chatter that previously occupied the small space died away in a moment’s breath, leaving only the cool music playing in the background. Even the waiters that were milling around paused temporarily. All attention was on me and Derrick as we walked between the rows of tables. I suddenly felt exposed, having so many eyes watching me for what felt like forever. But I couldn’t take the credit for the silence alone. Not when Derrick was also looking charming in his black tuxedo that gave him the aura of an important dignitary. His black and grey hair was neatly combed to one side, adding extra points to the one his beautiful blue eyes and well sculpted face had given him. “Everyone’s staring,” I whispered as he led me towards the table he’s reserved for us. “Let them stare. That’s all they can do,” he said smugly. Contrary to that, his grip around my waist tightened, as if he

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 194

    Eliana’s POVDerrick came into the house looking victorious that day. One would have thought he’d just defeated a great foe and he’d enjoyed himself while at it. It was a Monday evening and his first day back at work since the assault. He was beaming happily and seeing him so excited, I couldn’t help but to smile myself. “What’s the good news, baby?” I asked, nearly bursting with anticipation. Derrick just kept on smiling as he took off his suit jacket and tossed it onto the couch closest to him. Then he came around to stand behind where I was seated. I was given no chance to prepare at all as he scooped up me and lifted me effortlessly into the air. “Derrick! Put me down,” I squealed, flailing my arms helplessly in the air. Ignoring my excited cries, he carried me all the way to the room, then he set me down ever so gently on the bed. His mouth was on mine all of a sudden, kissing me as it he was trying to reward me for something. I instinctively curled my arms around his neck,

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 193

    Derrick’s POVI headed home fuming. Despite my outright rejection of the outrageous adjusted offer from Susan and her lawyer, Peterson had been insistent that I accept it. But not in front of them. That happened half an hour later, after the meeting had ended and a triumphant Susan and her lawyer had taken their leave. Left to me, I was deadass ready to take the case to court, but Peterson was steadfast in advising me to take the offer. But Susan was simply asking too much. And out of everything, the fact that she was also demanding child support for a baby that I was fully sure wasn’t mine was the most infuriating thing. My phone rang just as I was driving off the highway. Seeing that it was Eliana, I answered it without a second’s delay. “Hi, baby,” I said, trying hard to keep the anger out of my voice. “I love you, Derrick.”“What?” “I love you,” she repeated, her tone firmer this time. “I think I always have. And I know I was supposed to say this back to you the day you confes

  • The Professor's Beautiful Secret   Chapter 192

    Derrick’s POV I entered the spacious office to see that I was the only person delaying the commencement of the meeting. Four pairs of eyes turned on me at once. Although I’d been to my lawyer’s office multiple times over the last few months, the place still had a foreign air to it. It felt as I was swimming into dangerous, untested waters. Maybe it was due to the presence of Susan and her lawyer who were occupying two out of the four seats on one side of the medium length table that in the middle of the room. My lawyer was seated on the other side of the table with two empty chairs next to his own. The office was wide and tastefully furnished, with floor to ceiling windows that gave satisfactory view of the city outside. A shelf filled with books sat to one side of the room while a dispenser occupied another corner. More than half of the flooring was covered by a thick, wine-colored rug while the rest were hardwood floor. At the center of the table was a small plant inside a flowerpo

    Eliana’s POV I was heading to class that morning when Annabelle appeared out of nowhere. She popped up to my front like a jack-in-the-box, nearly knocking me off my feet even as she had a smallr frame than I did. “Annabell!” I cried out, startled by her sudden appearance. “Gotcha,” she said, grinning in amusement. My heart thudded so hard against my chest that I almost thought I was having a heart attack. After taking almost a minute to recover, I glared at Annabelle, my cheeks reddened from the embarrassment of her prank. “Are you crazy? You could have killed me,” I blurted. “Oh, please.” She waved of my concern in a nonchalant manner. Then she curled her arm around my neck and gave me a prolonged peck on the cheek. “It’s so good to see you.”“I wish I could say the same,” I said with a feigned anger. “What was that?” She asked and then tickled me so hard that I was unable to put a response together as I burst inot hysterical laughter. Two boys walking by at that moment turne

    Eliana’s POVOver a week later, Derrick and I stood in the kitchen of our new house. I was bubbling with excitement as I turned a full circle, letting my gaze sweep the kitchen. Derrick did the same thing and we both stopped when we were facing each other again. “Oh, my God. I love it so much,” I

    Derrick’s POV The lack of Eliana in my life in the last two days hurt more than I expected. Add that to the fact that she ignored my texts and calls and the result was a dull ache that I carried around in my chest like a cross. A cross of my own making. And Susan has been very helpful during the p

But he had never struck me as the kind of person to involve himself in drugs and other related vices. Maybe sexual harassment, cheating and the likes, but not drugs or smo
