I have transferred the minute I graduated and I moved to a bigger one. I bought it with my own savings with no help from my parents' cash which made me feel so proud of myself. I headed down to the kitchen and grabbed a can of beer from the fridge as I sit down on a chair. I gazed at my phone, it's already two twenty six in the morning.I wonder if Nick is already sleeping on the same bed with Dakota. Well they are married. Damn, how the things changed between me and Nick so fast. It's like, I didn't even notice he could get married. Well I can't blame him. He's already twenty eight, he should be getting married.

Jesus Christ this mansion is just insanely huge. I know I am drunk but I'm hella sure I wasn't hallucinating right now.

It's for her image." He answered."Bullshit." I spit.He reaches for my hand. "It happened too fast. Mrs. Devaloines asked me to do it and since she helped me a lot, I couldn't say no.

CHAPTER 77 UnpreparedUnprepared- not properly ready mentally or physically for some experience or action77I glanced at dad, "We still haven't talked about it." I said coldly."Well, the sooner the better." Dad says.I take a long sip from my drink and just thought about Nick. Everyone talked about the wedding and I was just sitting on my chair. I smiled whenever they would ask me something and I would talk when Damon would say me something to me. It's as if I was a robot and all of them are controlling me.When dinner was over, Ingrid decided to sleep at my apartment together with Cameron while my parents were at their hotel room. As I fix my pjs and entered the room, I found Cameron fixing the bed sheets with Ingrid. She jumps on my bed and Cameron whines about not getting it done yet. I walked to the bed and joined them."Are you okay?" Cameron asked me.I moved my head to him, "Why wouldn't I be?""Oh come on Annie. We know you still love Nick." Ingrid says.I smiled ruefully.

I guess she didn't tell him about how she walked inside my office and humiliated me in front of her."When?" He asked."It's on the invitation card.""No." He snapped.He exhales heavily and walks in little circles while massaging his temples."I meant when did you plan this? Tell me, when was it? Savannah you knew how I felt about you and I told you the whole truth." He adds."Nick." I snapped, almost sounding like a yell. I took a deep breath in. "I can't. I ju
