Two Months Before Leaving You Chapter-33
Kara’s POV.I waited, ignoring everything in me telling me to flee, as Derrick looked at me. I waited for him to call me Kara again and ask me what I was doing in Terra’s company.But to my surprise, Derrick just stood up and offered me a handshake.“Nice to meet you, Miss. Brady. Terra speaks highly of you, and I’m looking forward to working together with you in this project, every step of the way.”Even though I was stunned, I couldn’t afford to indulge in it. So, quicker than I’d ever done before, I put on the one mask I’d created throughout the past two years, which helped me get past many sketchy situations.“The pleasure is all mine, Mr. Whitney. I look forward to working on this project with you too,” I reply coolly, taking his hand and giving it a hearty pump. The type I’ve seen Terra do when she needs to tell her more stubborn executives that she was in charge, not them.For a moment, Derrick looks surprised by that but smiles to cover it up.“Well, now that the two of you ar

Kara’s POV.Axel led me away from the crowd, and his hand on my elbow was the only thing that kept me from falling apart.But as soon as I was away from the crowd and hidden in the hallway outside the Reception Hall, I broke down.I began to hyperventilate. Hugging myself close, I leaned against the wall, and felt tremors wrack through my body. The world blurred around me, and Axel’s voice became a distant echo. There was a rushing noise in my ears, and I felt lightheaded from the lack of oxygen.I felt a hand on my back, and it began to rub over my spine in circles. It was so startling that I had to focus on it, and that helped to drown out the whooshing in my ears just enough for me to hear Axel’s voice. “Breathe with me, Kara, come on,” Axel was saying. “Come on, you can do it. Breathe with me and follow my words. In and out. Okay? Okay, breathe in and hold, one, two, three, four, five, now exhale. Yeah, just like that, you can do it, come on. It’s okay, you’re okay. Breathe, Kar
Two Months Before Leaving You Chapter-31
Derrick’s POV.It didn’t feel like two years had passed since Kara’s disappearance from my life.Every day I woke up, thinking that she would finally leave my memory, that I’d be able to come to terms with her death and finally let her go, but she didn’t. Every waking moment, I’d find myself thinking that she was just down the hall in the kitchen, up before sunrise, and making breakfast made especially to suit my dietary needs.I purchased a new house after the villa burned down because I couldn’t bear to live at the family home again under my grandmother’s watchful and disappointed eyes. It looked nothing like the villa, in fact, it was an upscale penthouse apartment, on the top of a luxury apartment building one of my subsidiary companies owned, and it couldn’t be farther away from the villa, all slick lines and modern architecture, so different from the homeliness and the old-world charm of the villa.But still, I expected to see Kara waiting for me every time I came home.Two year
Two Months Before Leaving You Chapter-30
Kara’s POV.I was mortified.I didn’t believe Axel was lying to me. Why would he? As far as I knew, he never lied to me. And it made a lot of sense.I realized that I hadn’t seen either Jennie or Hailey around the office, and Marshall looked more glum than usual. I didn’t think much of it. But now I realized Terra had fired them.I didn’t really think she would take that step, I truly did not. It made me feel a bit awful, because I hadn’t wanted anyone to get fired on my behalf. But then again, Terra had said it was becoming a pattern when it came to those two, and well, I couldn’t fault her for taking such an action to safeguard her company’s good name.I felt very, very bad for thinking ill of Axel, though. The poor man had been faithful to me, not spilling my secrets, and I’d gone and treated him coldly because I’d been too stupid to ask Terra how exactly she learned about Jennie and Hailey.“I’m so sorry,” I blurted out, wanting the ground to track and drag me within. “I shouldn’t

Axel’s POV.Kara was withdrawing from me.I didn’t know what was happening. If I were to pinpoint when it began, I’d say it was roughly the day after Kara attended her big meeting. I had no idea what I had done, because Kara was perfectly polite and reasonable about it.Her fabric designs had been a rousing success despite the hardship she faced due to her own workmates betraying her, and I remembered how bright her smile had been when Terra approved of her designs wholeheartedly. I thought we’d be able to celebrate a little later, after work, and have drinks together, or dinner.I sought her out at lunch to forget the plans, but she smiled and said she had to refuse as she had some errands to run.I didn’t doubt that she was telling the truth, but something about the way she said it seemed off. At the time, I’d brushed it off, thinking it was just a figment of my imagination, and I was just reacting to her rejection by being a paranoid idiot.But then it happened again, and again.To

Derrick’s POV.I felt like I was going crazy.Ever since grandma gave me that file, I haven’t known what to think. No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t remember signing those documents. Why would I have signed them anyway? I didn’t want to divorce Kara, not yet. I didn’t know why, but for some reason, I didn’t want to do it.Kara hadn’t been the one to present those papers to me, nor had it been Theresa.There was only one other person who had access to me who could attempt such a thing.“What is the meaning of this?” I asked Jade, shoving the papers on her face.I’d tracked her down to the hotel she was staying at, because the villa had burned down, and my grandma did not want her at her house. I hadn’t spoken to her since yesterday, after I’d asked her to take a break.“Oh, hello, Derrick, nice to see you again, how are you? I’m doing fine, thanks for asking,” Jade snarked, annoyed and hurt.But I didn’t care.“Don’t take that tone with me, Jade. Do you have anything to say about
