Nico and Ethan stole a glance at one another.“Uhmm… Connel.” Ethan called him.Connel looked at him, his eyes clearly turned towards Ethan.“2019…Paris, what happened there?” Ethan questioned, rubbing his hands on his chin.Connel stole a glance at Ethan and back at Nico, no response, just silence.Watson walked in and was filled in with the details of everything that went down. Watson and Connel have a different kind of bond, when it came to them it was like Watson was actually the father figure in Connel's life - Connel never left him out on anything, he always asked him for advice when he didn't know what to do and he respected so much.Connel continued to stare at the journal, the thoughts on who the mystery woman can be and how she got to know about Paris. Whatever happened in Paris was kept a secret for a reason, only three people knew about Paris - Connel, Toria and his father but if Toria and his dad were involved then there's a probability that her dad is involved.“Who else

“I think Mr Wilder would be in the best position to answer that.” Toria's words felt like a bomb, her eyes twitching as she watched every movement.She said it in a tight and calm tone, a way that one would instantly believe everything coming from her but knowing Toria they weren't ready for her games and they weren't easily convinced.All eyes lingering on Toria.“You can't be serious.” Nico murmured, breaking the existing silence.“Why can't I?”“What are you trying to say?” Connel snapped, “we'll all appreciate it if you can stop beating around the bush.”She glanced at her nails. “I'm simply saying your dad knows more than you think… obviously.”Ethan let out a mischievous laugh, hitting his hands on the table. Completely unaware of the eyes piercing into his skin.With laughter in his voice, “firstly I must commend your statement but Toria…” he raised his head waving his face towards her direction. “You must think that we're a fool, even if everyone here is, just remember I am ce

The route to the main house hadn't changed but instead felt shorter.Connel noticed that first not because he was sentimental but because his mind calculated details when it needed something to hold onto. The same stretch of asphalt. The same fence posts half-swallowed by hedges that were never fully trimmed all the way back. Even the trees stood tall where they always had, their branches creating a canopy that dimmed the morning light.He drove at a steady speed, one hand on the wheel, the other resting closely near the gearshift. No music. No unnecessary movement. The engine's low hum filled the car, constant and remarkable.Ethan sat in the passenger seat, shoulders square, spine straight. Too straight. His hands were folded loosely in his lap, fingers not quite still. He hadn't said a word since they turned off the main road. He hadn't asked where they were going either. He already had an idea.Nico sat in the back, seatbelt fastened, eyes moving between the two men without commen

The sun definitely rose from the east and the morning, more quiet than you imagine. The house looked the same, sunlight filtering in through the long windows, the faint noise from the door down the hall. The shift in the atmosphere wasn't visible but it did cohabit with them. Connel noticed it the moment he opened his eyes. He didn't move - not immediately. One arm was still beneath Ariel’s head which laid against his shoulders as she took in slow breaths. She had shifted closer to him during the night, her fingers holding on to his shirt as though letting go wasn't an option. For a second, he allowed himself to lay still. Then his gaze hardened.
