When he woke up, Anthony found his room pitch black. The curtains were still wide open and swaying gently in the wind. The sky outside had turned pitch black with a few stars.Anthony swung his legs out of bed. He walked to the bathroom to wash his face and rinse his mouth. His entire mouth tasted bitter. He dried his face with a towel and looked at his reflection in the mirror. Shanon was right, that he was very messy and pale. He had very dark eye bags hanging under his.Anthony then decided to take a shower. Two days without water, he was like an ornamental plant that was about to wilt. Anthony washed his sticky hair, he shaved, and he changed Shanon's dad's clothes into a comfortable pair of his own pajamas.Half an hour later, Anthony was sitting alone in the kitchen. He felt much better than he had this morning when he opened his eyes. Again, Shanon was right that she would feel better when she woke up after taking the medicine. But if it weren't for Shano

Wednesday, and the day after the annoying fight in Anthony's car, Shanon was huddled in a corner of the campus library with a laptop and a stack of textbooks to help her formulate her thesis conclusion. Her fingers typed smoothly on the keyboard. The calmness made her relax and helped her concentrate on writing her thesis.Shanon could hardly imagine that her adventure in taking the master's program was almost over. With all the tears she had shed, all of them would be rewarded with her success in achieving a master's degree. Within one month, she would present the results of her research in front of all the students and lecturers of the master's program, including Anthony and the campus council.Thinking about it made Shanon's stomach churn, and she felt like throwing up. She repeatedly covered her mouth with the palm of her hand as her stomach churned even worse. Nervousness made her unable to concentrate on typing some words on her laptop.Half an hour later,

“Shanon, why did you bring him here? I told you that I didn't want to see him in our house?"“Ave, please. He has something important to talk to you about. This is about father's company.”“I have nothing to do with our father's company anymore. He already bought it.”Anthony cleared his throat softly. He had been sitting in the living room for more than thirty minutes listening to Shanon and Avery arguing behind the wall. Their voices could be heard very clearly from where he was sitting. They talked about him as if he were an invisible ghost.“You two, can you stop talking about me as if I'm not here?” Anthony snorted.“I don't mind you guys badmouthing me right in front of me. But at least, don't talk behind walls that can barely disguise your voice.”Avery was the first to appear from behind the wall, followed by Shanon behind her. Avery wore a cold expression that was not friendly at

Anthony walked hurriedly down the deserted hospital hallway. He passed room after room until he finally found the room he was looking for. 322 stuck to the surface of the tightly closed door. Anthony pulled the doorknob open and burst in with worry all over his face.Shanon lay weak on a gurney with bruises on the right side of her face. Her wrist was decorated with an IV needle and one of her legs that was sticking out of the blanket was wrapped in a bandage. The scene was far worse than Hugo had described. Anthony clenched his fists tightly and swore he would kill the damn man who had made Shanon lie weak on the gurney.“Anthony?”“Hey, did I wake you up?”"Why are you here?" Shanon groaned softly. She tried to retrieve her memories, which felt like they were buried in mud.“You should be in Germany, right?”“I flew here as soon as Hugo told me about your assault. I'm sorry I couldn't come sooner t

In less than two weeks, Shanon worked hard to complete her thesis. She did it with super speed and with the determination to quickly complete her studies. The people around her were a very good support system. Avery and Anthony worked together to support her. They no longer argued about the past. Avery helped Shanon calm Anthony, who was always overprotective of her. Anthony always watched her closely while on campus. Anthony burned her uniform and submitted the resignation to Eric on behalf of her. It made Shanon sick, and she whined at Avery to tell Anthony to stop watching her as if she was a state fugitive.“You don't need to take me home today. Avery will pick me up," Shanon put the phone to her ear. She was rereading her thesis before tomorrow she will make a presentation in front of all the master's program students, her lecturers, and the campus council.“Are you sure Avery will pick you up, and you're not going home on the bus? Don't try to lie to
