‎Her father's voice was immediately filled with rage. "What has that bastard done?" ‎He might be upset at her for going against him, but he still love his little princess. ‎Despite his hard shell, he's a loving father who can turn the world upside down for his daughter's sake. ‎A soft breathe escaped Evelyn's lips, her voice gentle and soft. "Nothing, Dad. I just realized how wrong I've been. I should have listened to your words." ‎She paused, let out a heavy breath and then continued. "I shouldn't have argued with you and left home without thinking straight. I was blinded by my own impulsive infatuation. But now, I've realized my mistake. I wish I had realized it earlier." ‎Her father listen intently, and his voice soften as he said. "That's good. We all missed you, especially your mother. She will be thrilled to hear this news." ‎"I missed you guys too" she answered, her voice laced with longing. "Dad, don't say a word about this to anyone yet. Once I'm done handling things

‎With a fake smile playing at the corner of her lips, Evelyn shook her head lightly.‎‎"It's nothing to be worked about," she uttered in a casual tone. "It was just a spam message."‎‎After a cold stare, he sauntered toward the closet and picked out a shirt and trouser to wear. ‎‎Once he was done, he glanced at Evelyn still packing and said casually, "If I'm not too busy when you return back to Los Angeles, I will come pick you up. And, let me know when you get back home."‎‎Without raising her head to look at him, Evelyn replied softly, "Okay."‎‎In her head— she wouldn't be coming back. ‎‎Silence grew between the two again, and then his phone rang. ‎‎After answering it, he turned to face Evelyn. "I have to head out now, I have something to tend to. Don't wait up for me because I might not return until morning."‎‎Unbothered, Evelyn replied nonchalantly, "Alright." ‎‎Chris didn't waste time. He turned around and left the room.‎•‎The next day, Evelyn went to the mall t

‎For a moment, Evelyn's throat felt dry. ‎‎"Alex?" ‎‎A small smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "Eve."‎‎His gaze fixed intently on her face, both staring into each others eyes before Evelyn finally cleared her throat. ‎‎As if reminding herself to compose herself. ‎‎She was almost carried away by his handsome face.‎‎His sudden presence wasn't a surprise to her, as she knew either her father or her older brother would have tipped him off about her return. ‎‎"Can I come in?"‎‎Immediately those words left Alexander's mouth, that was when she realized she hadn't invited him in yet. ‎‎She opened the door wider for him, and stepped aside. ‎‎"Of course, please..."‎‎They both walked inside after Evelyn had closed the door, and took their seats on the sofa.‎‎Alex had showed up at their house using the excuse of seeing Evelyn to discuss business with his best friend, Ethan. ‎‎Naturally, it's something they could both talk about on phone. ‎‎As they chatted, Evelyn

‎Joanna shrugged. "Well, since that's what you think, I'm not going to continue to argue with you."‎‎Evelyn smiled, shaking her head. "It's what I believe, Joan, not what I think." She clarified. "Now, enough of talking about me, let's talk about you instead. Tell me, how is it going between you and my brother? Are you two back together?" ‎‎As soon as those words left Evelyn's mouth, Joanna's body tensed up. ‎‎Her expression slowly turned stern, as she said, "Evelyn, do I have to remind you that four years ago, your brother and I were done? Let's just leave it at that please."‎‎Four years ago, the bond between Joanna and Ethan had changed from sweet and lovely to hatred.‎‎They had dated for a year, but a very wild misunderstanding concerning Ethan's Ex-girlfriend had driven them apart.‎‎They never made an official break up, they had just drifted into silence while avoiding each other like a plague, despite their parent's close friendship. ‎‎Even though, the two still fee

‎Meanwhile, inside Alex's office, he pinned Evelyn to the wall, his hand wrapped around her waist, with his eyes burning into hers.‎‎"Mr. Blackwood, huh?" he whispered, his voice low and husky.‎‎Evelyn's heart skipped a beat as she met his gaze.‎‎She didn't know why she felt that way, yet couldn't look away.‎‎She just knew she couldn't control herself.‎‎Alex's face was inches away from hers, his warm breath fanning her face, sending shivers run down her spine. ‎‎He leaned in closer, his lips almost touching hers. "You were being pretty formal out there." He murmured, his voice sending shiver all over her body. ‎‎Evelyn was lost into Alex's ocean deep eyes, as if getting lost in their depths. ‎‎Slowly, her eyes wandered to his lips, and she swallowed hard, her throat tightening.‎‎As if she wasn't supposed to loose control, she snapped out of it, clearing her throat. ‎‎She placed her palm on Alex's chest, gently pushing him away from her. "Well, you sounded pretty fo
