Tangled Desire: My Daddy, My Professor Chapter 54
TessaAfter eating dinner with the family, I lay down on the couch, my heart racing fast. It had been days since I last saw my mum, and I wouldn't lie that I missed her so much. I wished to see her. I glanced around the sitting room, it was empty, with only me inside. Leah and Alex had just stepped out, while Liam went to work, leaving only me with my thoughts.I contemplated whether to go home or not, considering the boredom taking space in my heart and the fact that I missed my mum. I stood up, concluding that I would go visit my house. I wanted to see her face, even though we wouldn't talk, just seeing her face would suppress my longing for her.I went to my room, picked up my purse and slippers, before storming out of the house and grabbing a taxi. I entered the taxi, told the cab driver my destination, and he started driving. My mind was occupied with the awkwardness that would be between me and my mum.I didn't know if what I did was a bit off, but I guessed it was just the r

Tessa"That's not possible," I shook my head nervously, even though I knew it could be. Liam looked desperate and ready to take what he wanted with all possibilities, but sometimes I had been giving him what he wanted, so why would he report us?"Then who? Who would report us if he's not the one, and to top it all, you said he's threatening you, so what are you expecting?" Mr. Carter sounded broken, trying not to show his sad side. His breathing became trembling, staring around the house. He folded his hands, supporting his jaw while his eyes looked around for what he didn't lose."I have a plan," My lips firmed. I had thought I would keep it to myself, but not anymore. Liam deserved nothing but cruelty. He fucking trapped me. After giving him everything. I hate the fact that I gave him everything yet he went ahead and trapped me."Plan? Which one?" Mr. Carter asked, staring at me with doubt."Let's get rid of Liam," I pronounced, unsure if I made any sense right now, but that's the

TessaAfter eating breakfast with Leah, she rose from the table to take the plates to the kitchen while I waited for her to come back. I've been having peaceful breaths ever since Liam went to work and hadn't come back. I wish it could continue going like this.Leah came back from the kitchen and sat down in front of me, her eyes staring at me with something I couldn't dispatch. She had been asking me what was wrong and why I had left the house since we woke up, but for real, I don't think I'm ready to talk about it. Especially mentioning Mr. Carter wasn't part of the plan at all.She cleared her throat, supporting her hand with her jaw, her eyes mainly on me. "Now that I've served your empty stomach and it's now full of your cravings, can you tell me what I desire to know?" She asked for the umpteenth time. I looked away, trying to avoid her question, but her persistence gazed at me, doesn't change anything."I told you it's nothing," I scoffed, trying to downplay everything."Really

Carter"Hey, love," I opened my arms wide, welcoming Mila into my body frame; my hands snaked around her waist while I kissed her on the cheek and her forehead. "How are you doing today?" I questioned releasing her to search her face."Well, I can't say if I am happy or excited, but I am good; everything is good." Mila flashed me a smile, I needed no one to tell me something sweet happened. I am not saying she doesn't smile but she looks super excited."Is there something I need to know that you are hiding from me?" I took a glass from the rack, poured myself some content from the bottle, and then gulped the whole content."I am not hiding anything," she chuckled collecting the glass and bottle from my hands, she set it herself. "Tessa came in earlier today, but she is not feeling well; she looks sick and pale; all the color on her skin had drained, but she is fine." She announced.My expression faltered down at her. The last piece of news I was expecting to hear was that Mila saw Tes

CarterI was surprised to see Mila standing outside Tessa's door. My mind reeled. What was she doing here?I approached her, my voice low, although I knew Tessa had discovered what was going on but would rather keep her cool than talk and raise suspicions between us."Mila, what are you doing? I thought I left you in the kitchen not quite long trying to prepare dinner or I think you were fixing some stuff in the kitchen?" I asked, my presence still covering the entrance to the door.She smiled, a hint of surprise as she was not expecting me to open the door to find her standing quietly and noiselessly. "Is it a crime if I decide to leave the kitchen and come to my daughter's room?" Mila replied teasing me."Come on, don't quote me wrong. I was just surprised to see you standing at her door after telling me you guys had a lengthened talk not quite long, and you straightened out the issues between the both of you," I paused breathlessly. "I didn't realize that mother and daughter's bond

TessaMom walked in after Carter left the room, a warm smile spread on her lips as she approached the bed where I sat with my Teddy bear on my thighs, staring at nothing in the room in particular."You exchanged pleasantries with Carter right?" she asked.I nodded, feeling uneasy even though I knew we just didn't exchange pleasantries as father and daughter would but chatted about something she should not know about."That is nice; he was worried sick of you when you left; I am sure he is happy you are back to the house and family, too," She sat down next to me on the bed, her position directly facing me."Yeah, I guess so," I shrugged carelessly.But then Mom's expression turned serious. "So tell me Tessa, how have you been all this while you were not with us? Tell me what your neighbors are like. Did you hang out with your friends a lot, or did you lock yourself up in your room reading and studying? Or have you found a hobby you are suddenly in love with and buried yourself in it? G

Carter I cleared my eyes for the umpteen time, and I was still seeing the same bewildered expression staring back at me. It felt so unreal, to see my daughter after all these years, but how could she come back home without informing me? I stared at her with surprise, my eyes wide with wonder, but she only smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling."Jasmine?" I called, wanting to be sure if I was truly seeing my daughter, and for real, it was her."You're not seeing a ghost, Papa," she smiled, standing up from the bed and walking toward me with open arms. "I miss you," she uttered, her voice trembling with emotion."I missed you too, daughter," I gushed, pulling her into a tight, fatherly hug. I inhaled her smoky perfume, rubbing my nose on her head, feeling a mix of joy and nostalgia.I couldn't believe I was seeing her right now; she looked different from the Jasmine I saw the last time. Even though we talked and chatted on the phone sometimes, it still felt more surreal and wonderful th

TessaReality hit me like a ton of bricks, and my knees felt weak, threatening to buckle beneath me. Thanks to Mr. Carter's firm hand on my shoulder, I would have collapsed to the floor by now. My eyes refused to close, and my mouth remained wide open in shock, with tears welling up in the corners, streaming down my face in slow motion.I couldn't believe this; this can't be happening right now. The room seemed to spin around me, and my mind raced with thoughts. Even without anyone telling me, and with the reaction on Mr. Carter's face, this lady must be someone he knew intimately.Mr. Carter released me, taking a step further, but the girl moved back, her eyes fixed on us. "Jasmine, I can explain," he pleaded, blinking repeatedly, his eyes filled with desperation.My ears perked up at the name. Jasmine? It sounded familiar; where did I hear that from? Oh! A gasp escaped my lips when I finally recalled if I didn't misremember, that Jasmine was Mr. Carter's daughter, the same girl who

Tessa Epilogue. Two years had passed. I could hardly believe it, but here I was, standing in my cozy living room, arranging the last of the decorations for Jasper's 5th birthday party. The house smelled of freshly baked cookies, the faint scent of balloons, and the light hum of excitement in the air.I was nervously running through the checklist in my head as I put the finishing touches on the birthday setup. Balloons? Check. Cake? Check. Presents? Check. Family and friends? A little of both. I glanced at the clock, realizing the guests would be arriving soon. Everything was in order. Well, as much as it could be. Jasper had been babbling all morning, excited for his big day, even though he had no full idea what was truly happening. To him, it was just another day of love and laughter.My mind wandered for a moment, drifting back to the years that had passed. Life had changed so much, and yet, some things remained constant. Jasper's little laugh, his giggles as he played with his to

Tessa The past week has been a blur. After everything that happened, life has felt like one long, surreal dream, a strange mixture of relief, reconciliation, and nervous anticipation. I still can't quite believe it's real.Jasmine had come to me almost the day after I reconnected with Carter. I hadn't been sure how I'd react, but the moment she started to apologize, I could feel my defenses starting to crack. She poured her heart out, tears in her eyes, confessing all the things I'd never known she felt. She admitted her insecurities, her jealousy, her regrets. And for the first time, I saw the human underneath all that bitterness. It was hard, but I forgave her. I didn't want to carry that anger anymore.Then there was my mom. She hadn't just given Carter her blessing, she insisted I finish my education, too. I'd always wondered if she'd think I was weak for leaving, for not holding myself together. But her love and support had been unwavering. She understood me in ways I didn't ev

CarterI glanced out the car window at the small, quiet town as we pulled in. It was the kind of place I'd never imagine myself setting foot in, a town so small it was almost hidden on the map, tucked away like an afterthought. But here I was, waiting for Mila, parked outside a diner that looked like it hadn't changed since the seventies. It didn't make any sense why we were here, and frankly, I was too tired to argue."You're still not going to tell me why we're here, are you?" I said as Mila climbed out of the driver's seat.She shot me a look over her shoulder, her lips pursed in disapproval. "You don't get to complain," she said bluntly. "Not after everything."I felt a pang of guilt, one I'd been feeling more often than I liked lately. I knew she was still angry with me, but I was trying to make up for my mistakes. "I'm sorry," I murmured, not for the first time. "I just... I thought maybe this was about Tessa. I thought you'd heard something."Her expression softened just a litt

TessaMy mum didn't waste a second. Her expression hardened, and before I could open my mouth, she stepped forward and, with a sharp crack, slapped me across the face. My cheek stung, but the shock was worse than the pain. I could barely comprehend what was happening before, in the next breath, her arms wrapped around me, pulling me into a fierce embrace. She held me so tightly, and it felt like she was holding onto all the lost years, all the words we'd never said.I felt the weight of it all pressing down on me, and I couldn't stop the tears that came. They poured down my face as I buried myself in her shoulder. Her breath hitched as she sobbed against me. It was strange, to feel her strength and her sorrow all at once. "I'm sorry," I managed to whisper, my voice barely audible. I didn't even know where to start. There was so much between us, so much hurt and misunderstanding.She pulled back just enough to look at me, her face streaked with tears. "Why didn't you come to me, Tes

TessaThe warm, familiar scent of coffee and freshly baked pastries filled the air as I poured a hot cup for the man at the counter, a regular who'd become a comforting presence in my little world. "Here you go, Mr. Davis. Extra sugar, just the way you like it.""Thank you, Tessa." He gave me a smile, his eyes crinkling in that friendly way that made me forget, if only for a moment, about the mountain of worries I kept carefully tucked behind my smile. "Can't find coffee like this anywhere else, you know."I chuckled softly, appreciating his words. "Glad to hear it. Keeps me in business, anyway."He laughed, but as he turned and left, the cheerful facade slipped just a bit. In the quiet that followed, I let out a sigh. Keeping this place running had been harder than I'd ever imagined.When I first arrived in this town, I was barely holding on. Lost, alone, and with no idea how I was going to make it on my own, I'd been saved by the kindness of a woman I'd met by chance. She'd offered

Carter POV It had been 3 years. An entire 3 years, and still, nothing.I set the phone down, and exhaled, forcing the frustration from my chest, but it was no use. It never seemed to leave me. Jasmine's concerned eyes met mine, asking me for answers I didn't have."Was that...?" she started, her voice quiet, uncertain. She didn't need to finish the question. I knew what she wanted to hear, even if I'd stopped letting myself hope for that answer."No," I replied, managing a small, empty smile. "Nothing yet. Still no word on Tessa. They're following up on the last few leads, but..." I trailed off, feeling the weight of the words I couldn't say.The police had already declared her a runaway. As if it were that simple as if it explained why she'd vanished without a trace. They had ruled it a voluntary disappearance, a choice she had every right to make as an adult. I'd used every bit of influence I had to keep it out of the press, to keep her name clean, to make sure her image remained

Carter The weight of what I'm seeing settles like lead in my chest. The grainy video plays on the screen in front of me, though every word feels like a scream. Tessa, slipping through my office door, alone. I look up at the board members. Their faces are impassive, judging, waiting for me to explain. But the truth is simple, and I refuse to give them the satisfaction of seeing me squirm."What you're implying," I say, my voice rougher than I intended, "is absurd. Nothing inappropriate happened between Tessa and me. She came to talk to me about her grades, and her future. I was offering her advice, mentorship."They exchange skeptical glances as if the word "mentorship" was just another excuse, another way to cover my tracks. The bitter reality of it sinks in, I've already been tried and convicted in their minds."Mr. Carter," the chairman finally says, voice laced with condescension, "regardless of your intentions, it's clear that certain boundaries were crossed. Even the appearanc

TessaThe sharp, sterile light stings my eyes as I blink myself awake. Everything feels hazy, muffled, as if my senses are wrapped in cotton. My head throbs, and when I try to sit up, a wave of dizziness forces me to sink back onto the stiff hospital bed."You're awake. Good." A voice cuts through the haze, gentle but firm.I turn my head to find a nurse standing at my bedside, clipboard in hand and an expression that's equal parts concern and disapproval. I try to speak, but my throat is so dry that only a croak comes out. She hands me a cup of water, and I sip it gratefully, letting the cool liquid soothe my throat."Where...?" I manage to mumble, but she's already anticipating the question."You're in the hospital," she says, matter-of-factly. "Some good Samaritans brought you in. You were unconscious on the sidewalk."The memory floods back, a blur of exhaustion, of pushing myself until I couldn't anymore, the ache in my chest from everything that's happened recently, everything t

Carter I've barely had a moment to breathe since Tessa laid everything out for me, I think of everything I might have done for her but was unable to lay hands on a particular reason. It all felt like a nightmare. I walk through the corridor leading to my office my mind raising with the thought of Tessa, what I can do to change her perspective? No matter how hard I tried to reason it nothing seemed to come up, if only I knew what I did in offending her maybe I would apologize but nothing, the last I remember, we were on good terms and everything was going perfectly well. I raised my head only to find that the Students were smirking as I passed them, something that usually wouldn't bother me, but today it feels different. Something's off. A couple of the professors cast me looks that are anything but neutral. Disapproval, disdain. I don't know what they are looking at that made them press their gaze on me but I know it's nothing worthy of my time. I brushed them off thinking I had
