DANIEL

Daniel paced back and forth across his study room. This new piece of information had thrown him completely for a loop. The words of his PI kept ringing through his head repeatedly making him more restless. He didn't know what to make of this new information. There was no denying that this new lead, which most likely was going to meet a dead-end, had only added to this puzzle.

    Daniel turned towards her, confused. But soon realized what she meant when he followed her line of gaze. Her eyes were on the scratches she had given her. Daniel couldn't help but smile. After smashing his heart, crashing his hopes, and hurting his feelings, all she felt guilty about was a few scratches on his arm."Don't be. They don't hurt much," Daniel turned his eyes back on the road. Ashley detected the expected accusation underlying his tone. She knew he was upset with her. He may not express it openly but his body language said it all. His stern expression was a dead giveaway.No one said anything throughout the ride.Daniel, without saying any word retired to his room after they reached home leaving Ashley all alone in the hall.

    Daniel disappeared after that incident.Giselle and Steve drove her to the mansion. Ashley didn't tell them about the incident.

    Daniel spent the whole night at his office. Drowned in the darkness and shrouded with an eerie silence. This is strange, how one starts to see things more clearly in the dark. He saw it too. He saw how one truth turned his life upside down. He knew he was doing wrong when he signed those papers. Even though it was the right thing to do. He was hurt but not angry. The man still hadn't forgiven himself for that, then how could he expect Ashley to forgive him. But still, he couldn't help himself but feel hurt by Ashley's words. This must have been really tough for her.He knew Ashley had trust issues after what she went through with Michael. Her ex-husband, who pretended to love her until he got his fill of her body. It must have been really challenging for her to start trusting Daniel.
