Chapter 21. We are meant to be together.  “Are you sure about this?”I continued scratching the back of my neck, staring at the page I had to sign before I could enter.“You don’t have to do this.”I have to, you have no idea how much. I thought to myself. Finally, I took a deep breath and sighed. I took the pen and signed my name in the book.“That way.” A disinterested hefty woman tilted her head at the door, not even glancing up as she continued to flip through an adult magazine. Both her legs on the table and her chair leaned back, she clearly didn’t care much about this job.I turned and smiled at Alex. “I am sure. I want to see him.”Ray Parker was going on trial in two days and I wanted to see him before I never had a chance to again. He was a friend at one point and I couldn’t carry this guilt around anymore.

Chapter 23. Do you want to get coffee after this? I was sitting in the café Alex had first taken me, wondering how my life had come to this. It had been two months since I had lost my job at Bianchi Enterprises as a hacker. It had been more than two months since I had last seen Alex. And for the last one month, even the media didn’t know where the famous eligible bachelor was.I sighed, placing the coffee mug on the table and leaning my head back, staring out of the window and my mind took me into memory lane, 8 years back.I was a teenager then and still deciding on what to do with my future. Among the few friends I had during school, I had one friend that many didn’t know of. A pen pal. We had never physically met but occasionally talked on this app where we could connect with people of similar interests. Sometimes it’s easier to share your emotions with people you don’t know per

Are you ready for this????--Chapter 25. Alex Bianchi jealous? As if. “No, I don’t want to watch that.”“Come on! I heard it’s really amazing.”“No, I don’t watch Netflix. I watch the News.”I snorted. “That’s why you are so boring.”Alex glared at me. “I am not boring.”“Then watch it with me.” I smiled, raising my eyebrows, daring him to say no.Alex groaned, closing his laptop. “Fine but just one episode.”“Two.” I bargained, grinning and starting the first episode.“No, one.” Alex argued, groaning as he sat and seized the popcorn bowl from my bowl.“Hey!” I protested, reaching for my cheese popcorn.Alex leaned back, his arm with the popcorn bowl stretching behind his back. “I am watching this stupid ser

Chapter 27. Sometimes we forget to take care of the things we love.  “Have they caught the guy from Athena’s hit and run yet?”Alex looked up from his laptop at my sudden question. “No, the license plate was a fake and the nearby cameras caught the image but he was wearing a cap so his face is not visible.”I sighed, slumping down the couch beside him. “Why would anyone target Athena?” I put up my legs on the table and crossed my ankles.Alex lightly slapped my thigh. “Feet off the table. How many times should I tell you?”I twisted my lips in annoyance but reluctantly kept my feet back on the floor.“I am not sure. But we are tracking it down.”I scratched the back of my neck, staring the plain glass table in front.“What?”So lost in my thought, I jolted when Alex’s hand touched my shoulder.

Chapter 29. Stay safe and by safe I hope you know what I mean.  ~~“I can’t believe she lied to me.”“I can’t believe she lied to me too.”“I can’t believe she didn’t even care to lie to me” I heard Evan’s voice.“Why would she tell you anything?”“Because I am her friend.”Alex scoffed, he really didn’t seem to like Evan. “Just a friend. I am her boyfriend.”“And she lied to you.” Evan taunted.“Why are you even here?”“Because I can be.”“Get out, this is my house.” Alex’s voice stiffened.“No, Myra is my friend. So I’ll stay until she wakes up.” Evan said with conviction.“You are so annoying.”“You are so stupid.”"You are stupider."
