They will ruin you! She has stuck to this rule without questions and has successfully withdrawn herself from people. But someone is not willing to let her be. Instead, he is bent on unravelling the mystery around her. when I went for my group study the following week. I stood among the group members with my textbook spread opened on my palms. I tried to speak but couldn't. All I did was stutter. This reminded me of my first day with Veronica; how I couldn't make one good sentence.

He already had a bad opinion about her from the very start… and until now. Nah! She seems to be going crazy to think of some kind of nonsense. Why is she acting like that? She should be avoiding him because he is a man. And men were no good for her. Especially now that she knows her defenses are weak when it comes to strangers. It was enough that she fantasized about him. She was inspired enough and have done with her novel. It is enough that he was just inside her imagination, and she felt the feelings she wants to feel every time she thinks about him.

"Letting a stranger put his hands on you?" My face burned. "I was trying to stay invisible..." "You should be praying right now." His jaw was so tight I thought his teeth might crack. "Praying that Vittorio never finds out about tonight. Because if he does...." "He is not going to. Because you are not going to tell him." I said simply.

My heartbeat roared in my ears.

From strangers. From survivors.

Maybe strangers. I buried my face in the pillow. “What’s going to become of me now?” I whispered to no one. I closed my eyes, wishing everything could just stop. The scandal. The whispers. My life. Everything. The phone kept buzzing over and over again, louder this time. I didn’t move. I was too scared to take it. I just wanted to disappear, vanish.

“I know something is off. That’s not Laurel upstairs. Her mannerisms are all wrong. Her habits. Her eyes. The handwriting style on Morel's school note last week did not resemble Laurel's handwriting. I squeezed the stair railing harder while my blood turned to ice. Dr. Shawty urged me to lower my voice while scanning the area quickly. You may be correct but you shouldn’t accuse people like that. It’s more complicated than you think.” My legs trembled. He was going to tell her. He was about to expose me! “Complicated?” Lillian scoffed. “My son’s been living with a stranger!
