Connor was told on the phone that Carolina was home, "Someone brought her back home, she looks so pale and sick" the maid reported. Connor was furious at Carolina but it was not the right time and place to express his anger, "Take her to her room immediately and call the family doctor to attend to her at once" he ordered."Yes Alpha" the maid concurred, "And as for who brought her home. Make sure he doesn't live in the mansion. Keep him, hostage, until I have returned. If I come home and learn the person had left, then all of you at home will pay dearly. I am on my way" Connor ordered and took the phone off his ear.He stared at the Vice-chancellor one more time before making his way outside the office. Jack simply apologized to him for the inconvenience they caused on behalf of Connor and followed him out too. Connor's heart felt like it was shredding into two, it hurts so much to learn that his mate lied to him but at the same time, he was willing to hear what she had to say about
Connor was at a loss of speech as he stared at Carolina with a surprised expression. "Did she just lie to me so as not to disclose where she had been the night before?" Connor pondered in his heart, refusing to believe Carolina would be bold enough to lie to his face."Did you say you were reading for a test?" He asked in a small voice to confirm her words, uncertainty in his tune.Carolina nodded abruptly, refusing to make eye contact with him so that he wouldn't see beneath her lies, "Yes, I thought you received my message about my plans of not returning home because I had to stay back and study. Why does it seem like you did not see it?" Carolina returned and Connor blinked countlessly.He folded his hands in a fist and gnashed his teeth against the other as he stared at Carolina with mixed feelings. First of disappointment, betrayal, heartbreak, and worst of all, anger. Carolina swiveled her room with a puzzled expression, "Connor, my throat feels so dry. I will like to go down t
Connor was taken aback by Carolina's words. His brows furrowed and his face became pallid."Su.. suffocated? You've always felt suffocated here?" Connor stuttered, trying hard not to believe his ear."Exactly Connor, suffocated, that's how I feel here" Carolina snapped instantly, glaring at Connor. "I can't believe this, this is unbelievable Carolina. What do you mean by feeling suffocated here? Because as far as I can remember, Carolina. There is nothing you have asked of me that I did not provide. I gave you everything you ever wanted Carolina, Every damn thing! So why will you utter such a thing" Connor returned in confusion."Because it is the truth Connor, the truth. I don't like it anymore here but do you care about my reasons? No!" Carolina snapped with a deep scowl.Connor rubbed his face in frustration and made to sit down on their bed, "I thought we are over this? I thought this conversation died down long ago. Why are you bringing it up again?" Connor requested in a calm t
Carolina paced about her room while biting her fingers deep in thought. She wondered how Connor got to find out about the party, how she got home, and most especially what occurred during the party.The blurry images she kept getting were making her curious to know what happened back then in Jackson's new house. Carolina wondered if she acted out of hand, in general, she wanted to know how the party went because no matter how much she tried to remember, nothing was popping into her brain, and that made her sort of worried. She turned to the dressing table and could see her handbag on top of it, this made her slightly glad that her things were still intact even though she couldn't remember a thing.Carolina instantly hurried towards her bag and opened it to take a good look at the items in it. She could see her cell phone and purse with her money at the exact amount she left it in.Carolina was puzzled, "What exactly happened?" She thought hard and slowly reached for her phone. She n
It turns out that Connor hired a man to monitor all of Carolina's activities while she goes and comes back from school on a daily occasion.Connor only did this to find out more details about what happened at the party since Carolina has refused to let him in on it. The young man Connor hired, after some days of continuously following Carolina about and taking notes of how her day goes reported that there was nothing suspicious about Carolina's activities.Connor became convinced that he must have misunderstood Carolina and thought that she was keeping things from him. This made him start to slowly let go of the grudge he held against Carolina for lying to him in the first place.All the while Connor monitored Carolina secretly, they were never on good terms. Carolina would return from school and lock herself in her room while Connor would not bother to check on her.The issue of the clash had caused a big fight between the both of them but when Connor realized that Carolina did not
Carolina felt all the blood in her face drain in a split second. Her feet turned cold and goosebumps covered her whole body. She turned to look at Connor whose expression was something she could not explain or read, he just stared at the projected picture without saying a word, his face cold and veins starting to pop on his neck. Carolina gulped down nothing as Connor stared back at her with mixed feelings. He was horrified by what was on show for everyone to see and was as well disappointed in Carolina for stooping so low and worse of all for playing him by making him believe that nothing happened that night."Connor, this.. this is not real, I did not do this I swear. Something is wrong somewhere because I did not do this, believe me," Carolina started to say tearfully as she made to touch Connor who immediately shifted away from her, still staring at the picture in shock. He turned to Carolina again and then at the picture, then he turned around to stare at their guests who were
Jackson was bundled and brought to Connor who was sitting casually on a couch in the boy's quarter and sipping on the glass of liquor he held in his hands.Jackson looked terrified like a cat with the way he was hauled into the room. He had just been apprehended a few minutes after he left Carolina's party to attend to other things.The truth was that he did not know why he was suddenly taken away only to be brought before Connor who did not seem happy to see him one bit.Jackson shivered as he beheld Connor's dark eyes, he was then acquainted with the reason he was manhandled and brought before Connor. "It must be because of Carolina, nothing more," he said in his mind."You touched my mate inappropriately" Connor's cold voice rang all over the room. Jackson was taken aback, he stared at Connor with raised brows."I don't seem to understand what you are talking about. What do you mean by I touched your mate inappropriately?" Jackson returned and the guard beside him gave him a deafe
Carolina was restless when she got wind of the news that Jackson was abducted by some unknown men. She needed no one to tell her that it could only be Connor that will such to Jackson.No matter how much she tried to drive her mind away from the fact that Connor had a hand in Jackson's sudden abduction, the more she saw reasons to be convinced that Connor is keeping the poor boy in his custody. Carolina felt a lot of pity for Jackson because she knew very well how Connor can be, especially when he is pissed at something or someone or when he is enraged, or even when it has to do with her."Jackson is already a dead man and it is not very good for him to be one at the moment. Come to think of it, How come he told me clearly that nothing happened between us when it was a big lie! I freaking kissed Jackson, the same guy I considered a good friend. I stupidly initiated the kiss and now he is in trouble for something he knows nothing about.Why did he refuse to tell me too? Why did he pre
