Evelyn's povWhen we arrived back in the Packhouse I told Kian that I had to go and meet my stepmother he was surprised by this he told me that every time I met her or we crossed parts we always seemed to get into very nasty arguments but there was no need for me to waste my energy on somebody like that. I knew that the hospital would probably call us to ask her about her opinion and they also told her about the condition of My Father."I just want to put her in place before she starts getting any more funny ideas,"I knew that she was still urgently and desperately searching for any way under the Sun that she could use and twist up in order to have my father forcefully taken off life support so warning her like this was necessary even though it was tiring. Before I went over to her room I thanked Kian for standing up for me in the hospital. It wasn't as if I was not capable of standing up for myself but just the feeling that there was somebody there and I was not all alone was a reli
Evelyn's povThere was an unfamiliar woman that I had not come across before but she seemed to be quite comfortable strolling around my bedroom. At first, she didn't notice me and I walked closer to her and broke my presence to her by asking her who she was looking for. She looked at me as if I was the one intruding into somebody else's bedroom so I asked her who she was and what exactly she was doing in my bedroom."This might be a little strange but somebody asked me to come here and wait for him and that's really how it is, I can't explain more than that…"I was just completely stunned by the woman in front of me. She was comfortable and didn't seem to have one single issue with making herself so comfortable in somebody's bedroom. I stayed still just staring at her. I just stayed and rubbed my cheeks to check if this was some kind of dream because I had never met someone with so much audacity in my life it was a lot to see Finally, my contract husband arrived and I was hoping that
Evelyn's povI don't know if I was supposed to trust this woman or not but I didn't even feel secure to leave her in this room. I don't know, but there was something about her presence generally that made me incredibly uncomfortable and I wasn't sure if I could just leave her on her own. I noticed that she was joking with me and it was clear that she was sending me a message that she didn't want me to stay any longer after I had already shown her the room."So let me think about this, you must be really tired after your trip…"She looked like she was half ready to kick me out of the room then all of a sudden her face eased up then she suddenly relaxed, strolled over to her bed, and patted the side inviting me to come and sit next to her."You know that it has actually been a very long trip and I would not mind some female company,"I sat next to her, and while I tried to get her to talk about herself she said nothing beyond what Kian said about her that she was a doctor and she was he
Evenly POVHe hesitated for a little bit and I was sure that there was something that he could tell me when he opened his lips. “You told me that they had been close friends from a very young age.”I looked at him. I was really eager. I told him if he was not going to say anything then I was just going to leave the kitchen. I turned around and as I was leaving he grabbed me by my wrist and I made sure to give him a very code look that signaled that I didn't want to be touched by him at all. Without saying a word he released me and he mumbled out what seemed to be an apology. I wasn't really listening to anything that wasn't what I had asked him about in the first place.Even after pressing on, I could see very clearly that I was obviously wasting my time because how else was I going to explain why he was just making vague remarks? He told me that they were particularly close and he was not in with his brother so he didn't know what they really talked about or if they still contacted
Evelyn's pov I was honestly flooded with embarrassment. At that moment he came over and knocked on the door a little aggressively, staring at me and more but I made my way out of the car and he stepped back quickly to avoid the door from slamming directly into his face.I thought that he was going to ask me why I suddenly froze up in the car like that until he didn't ask any questions. He was quiet and he only spoke when he urged me to move faster. I didn't realize that he probably was going to be spotted with me here alone. How was his lover going to react if she saw it? All together she would probably explode. Of course, I was not scared of my stepmother and definitely, she would have to be really joking to think that I would still try to get into his pants after what he did to me. That was the last thing I would ever do in my entire life.As soon as we stepped to the hospital he kept a safe distance from me and his eyes were swinging from one direction to another as if he was expe
Evelyn povEven though the doctor didn't tell me that he was following me I could feel his heavy presence just right behind me but he didn't even bother hiding.I told myself that I could tolerate it…that I was strong enough to, but in reality I was anything but strong right now.And I was not so desperate for any kind of attention that I was willing to bend to my former fiance and ask him for another help here which I see as something shameless knowing that he had been in between the same legs as my own father.I shivered, it would have been too disgusting and irritating to think about it and I wish that I had not been in such a tight spot that I had to ask him for a ride to the hospital.I was glad that he had some sense of caution himself. He was sensible enough to split off with me in the whole hallway before anybody really spotted us.The doctor didn't seem to share the same beliefs in the same manner of course, but he appeared to be completely annoyed and apathetic to the idea t
Kian’s povAs I absentmindedly unfolded another piece of laundry, I could feel her gaze washing over me generously, soaking me in her attention that didn't waiver even though to an ordinary eye it would look as if she was just simply admiring her new residence with awe.Her fingers laid under the wall for some time then it shifted to the furniture, she went over to the window spreading the blinds open with one swift movement then throwing the window open, all through this the corner of her eye was laid on me observing and measuring me in every way that she could until she turned around leaning against the window frame.“So this is where you have been spending your spare time? And here I was really thinking that I had lost my mind…” She said and I dropped her dress on the bed and approached her as she stood leaning against the windows still and her eyes never leaving me. “Hailey, you of all people should know that I wouldn't allow myself to get distracted. All of this that I've done i
Evelyn's pov“I don't know what is wrong with you but I don't want you to get any closer to me. I don't want you to prove that you are loyal or anything like that because I don't want somebody like you around me. You told me to give up on my father in the first place!” I said and tried to push off the doctor but I found myself feeling incredibly weak. It was as if my muscles were like butter and refused to do what I wanted them to. It was so frustrating to say the very least and I wanted them to just move so that I could stop this man but he seemed pressed to prove himself. He was getting angry about the moment and I could see the veins that were beginning to pop up in his head. It made me even more infuriated. He was not the one who was supposed to be angry right now I was the one that was supposed to be going through the moments of grief trying to properly mourn my father and put myself together but here he was trying to intercept himself claiming that he was loyal. My father ha
