Thea leaned back in her seat as she stared at the document she was reading on the laptop. She took the pencil from her lips and jotted down a few notes before flipping to the next page. Before she could get immersed in the content of her new page, she heard some knocking on the door and turned around to find Grace, Lucian’s grandmother standing there with a smile. “Hey there. The butler tells me that you’re impossible to get a hold of these days…” She trailed off as Thea motioned for her to come inside and sit down. “You were gone for a while, I happened to find a laptop and thought I could advance a little bit on my research while I’m here,” Thea explained. “While you’re here? So you decided to go back?” Grace asked. Thea smiled at the older woman. “You knew that I was going back eventually. I still have to work on the research until we can find someone to replace me…” she trailed off and Grace nodded in silence. “Are you sure you want to leave the university though?” Grace as

“Your grandfather collapsed last night due to extreme stress. You need to head back to see him,” The woman said through the phone.Nadia felt her heart skip a beat before her anxiety completely surrounded her dumping her in the cold waters of uncertainty and fear. She knew this feeling. It was the same as when her parents died. The crippling fear that overcame her the moment she was faced with their certain death. And the grief that had all but destroyed her that day.“Thea! Hey! Thea!” Grace called out shaking her shoulders forcefully snapping her out of her thoughts.“What should I do…” She trailed off emotionlessly and Grace shook her once again.“You should go back home and be with your grandfather. He had been looking for you everywhere since you disappeared. I wouldn’t be surprised if he collapsed because he was worried about you…” Grace trailed off.“But…” Thea trailed off unsure whether to come back or not.“You have to give the man a chance, Thea. Otherwise, he will never be

“Here you go, now both of you will have a copy of the contract. You will have to live under the same roof for the rest of the year, after that, we can declare that the two of you have some unresolvable issues and end the relationship. Thea would return to her old house and as she insisted she would get nothing from the marriage and the property that is now in both your names would go back to Lucian," As Peter finished the lengthy explanation, Thea simply nodded as she put the contract into her purse. Peter sighed once again leaning back and looking at both of them with an exasperated look.She knew that he had a lot to say, mainly to give this another thought, but Thea didn't want to hear it so she didn't give him a chance. She barely met him and Pen since she came back because she wasn't ready to have a discussion yet."I sent the funds back to your account, they should be there," Thea said simply not looking at Lucian who was sitting on her other side."I don't want your money..."

Thea walked into the coffee shop looking around for her friend. She waved at her from across the room, and as she was walking toward her, she could see that she wasn't alone.Thea paused giving an exasperated sigh as she glared at the grinning, other person, who wasn't supposed to be there. Instead of looking guilty or even bothered, he smiled at her and lifted his cup in greeting.Thea looked at the door ready to walk outside, but the sight of the mint tea waiting for her on the table made her hesitate. Making a split-moment decision, she gave in to temptation and sat down reaching for the cup and inhaling the fresh herbal scent."Told you that the tea would be a good bait..." Peter said with a smirk and Pen sighed."Sorry. He insisted on coming as soon as he knew that we were meeting," She said.Thea took a sip from her tea and savored it completely ignoring the two."Well, she's not answering my calls and she's never in her office when I visit. If I go to her house, Lucian will pro

Looking around him, he sighed when he realized that he was still sitting in the kitchen with the lights on waiting before his silent phone.He had returned home that evening from work eager to try and have dinner with Thea, knowing that she should be home before him. As he waited and waited, he realized that Thea was probably dining outside and had his meal in lonely silence mulling over how to win her over again.Walking through the house, he sighed at the unfamiliarity of the place. It was a new house even for him. A place he had been hoping to live in with her. Now that he was, he realized that just living with her was never going to be enough. Because even though she was by his side, she felt farther away than when she disappeared last month.Reaching for his phone, he took a deep breath and tapped the screen calling her phone. The call went straight to voicemail. Worry star

"Professor... Professor Keaton!" Thea was startled as she looked back at her student who was looking at her with a worried expression on her face."Yes... Sorry, I was lost in thought for a moment there," She said with a soft smile."You seem more tired after coming from your honeymoon, Professor. Are you sure that you're okay?" She insisted and Thea smiled at the young woman and nodded."Of course, I was just thinking about something. did you want something?" She asked."Oh, yes.

Everything was a lie… Every single thing. Every moment, every word, and every touch. Even the sincere moments of consolation that drew out her strength, and the silly fights over small things. It was all a well-orchestrated scheme to make her hopelessly fall in love. How ridiculous is that? Just how much effort did it have to take to make her believe this? A pang rang through Thea’s chest as she felt the moment of realization she had been avoiding for more than a month draw near. “Did you hear what I just said, Professor Keaton?” The detective asked and Thea looked at him a bit out of it trying to gather her thoughts. “Sorry, can you repeat that?” She asked as she looked at him. “I was asking if you knew something about the money. Your uncle keeps insisting that you used it for illegal activities and we can’t find any trace of it in your accounts,” the detective said making Thea sigh. “As I said for the fifth time. There are no unusual activities and the money went to charity,” s

He came all the way here from his meeting and raised hell because they took you in like this,""Well. that's all pretense. We're supposed to be a loving couple after all. I just don't want him involved too much in my problems," Thea stated as she turned around intending to walk outside."Are you okay with this?" Pen asked."Of course. This is for the best," She stated feeling a pang in her chest at the words she uttered.Somehow, she could see Lucian's blue gaze as it filled with hurt when she asked him to leave.
