“What happened?!”Madeline got up, her heart beating fast. Her breath caught as her eyes looked around the strange, bright room. Her head throbbed from the drink last night; but what really scared her was the sharp hurt under her.With shaking hands, Madeline grabbed a blanket that was around her, slowly pulling it up to check something.She wasn’t wearing anything.“It can’t be…”Madeline quickly looked around and froze.She saw her things spread out on the ground and a set of guys' shoes arranged close to the coffee table, because she wasn’t alone last night!Fear took her at once. Madeline quickly grabbed her head trying to recall how all this had happened.Last night, Madeline saw her future man, Ethan, giving a loving kiss to another lady in his apartment. And even more bad, that lady was Sonia, the girl who had picked on her the most in high school.Who would have guessed that this girl was now a lover of the man who was going to wed her?!It was not sad enough, Madeline even fo

I didn't want to make a fuss I was just telling him since he looked like he didn't get the rules when he came in here' Sonia said nicely but her eyes peeked at Madeline with dislike."Nathaniel didn't react.As soon as he walked in the lobby, his eyes were on just one person Madeline.The guy's eyes were closely watching Madeline, like he was seeing into her thoughts.Aware of the attention, Madeline felt uneasy.Why was this man looking at her like that?A weak grin bent Nathaniel's mouth.
