All Chapters of Please Love Me Again: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Evelyn was a second too late in closing the door of her apartment. The door was held in a strong grip, and no matter how much she groaned or sweated over it, it wouldn't budge.Meanwhile, her eyes were trained on her ground, not bearing the courage to face the horror before her. Her heart drummed in her chest in an alarming rate as though it would burst out any second now.She stared at the black and shiny shoes of his. As always they seemed perfect. There was not even a stain of dirt on them. She honestly didn't know how he managed to do so when she had it bad with hers. They never managed to stay clean for long for her."Evelyn," he enunciated.And she felt ashamed to admit that his voice made her feel jittery. It always did, and even after years, the effect didn't diminish. Why was her hormones so dramatic and pathetic just like her heart?Countless times she had heard him take her name. It was always using the same tone— composed and cold. Was there anytime when there was fluctuat

Evelyn always wondered if that cold-hearted bastard had something he was bad at. Contrary to her who would hardly do anything right, he seemed to never fail at anything.An arrogant man like himself would never let himself taste anything other than victory.These pancakes he made, although it was a simple recipe— why did they taste so good to the point her stomach turned into an endless pit?The delicious food put her in a better mood and got her to act more civilized."Why do you suddenly want me back?" Evelyn questioned.Looking for her after so many years, she would be a fool to believe that were no hidden motives. He didn't lack woman by his side, and each of them were a better match for him than her. As someone who detested trouble, there had to be something large that propelled him to make this decision.Him missing her? She would rather believe that the Earth is flat than this."It's about time you go home. I have given you enough space.""Go home. Go home. Can you stop parroti

The second interaction between them happened when Evelyn was carrying a large of notebooks to the teacher's office all by herself. As she walked through the staircase, she had a hard time looking at her path and balancing the notebook.She knew that she would be done for if one of the notebooks fell and incurred damage. Regardless of how careful she remained, the books wobbled, and her steps were unsteady.However, before any damage was inflicted, a hand was placed on her waist to stabilize her before someone grabbed more than half the books from her hand, lessening the burden."Where to?"Surprised at Landon's presence, she stared at the teen with widened eyes. He raised one of his eyebrows, waiting for her response."Ah, uhm, the teacher's office on second floor," she stuttered out before turning her head the other way. Her cheeks heated up while her heart went out of control.By the time she snapped into her senses, she realized that Landon had gone few steps ahead of her, and she

Evelyn stood with the Stone family, waiting for the arrival of the guests. The guests seemed to be pretty prestigious given the level of enthusiasm and carefulness shown by everyone.The main branch of the Stone family had Richard and Susan Stone, both being Evelyn's grandparents; Caspian Stone, her birth father; Janice Stone, Annalise's mother; Annalise and her although she was hardly counted to be a part of the family; and Evan Stone, her half-brother in elementary.Evelyn's mother died before her birth, and there was nothing Evelyn knew of her, not even her name. This was because her birth mother was considered a stain, and that's why, measures were taken to erase her existence.Back when she was a child, she did request to see the woman, but that ended up with her receiving an deep injury to her forehead which needed stitches. From then on, she knew not to cross the boundaries.Evelyn stared down at her hands. They were covered up in bandages. She didn't treat them with much; she

Throughout the car ride, the old man talked to Evelyn softly, trying to ease her nerves. She had to admit that she appreciated and felt touched by the effort, but it did very little to soothe the uneasiness.Even though she was welcomed by him, what about the rest of his family members? They shouldn't be fine with a stranger suddenly coming to live with them. There was a Landon as well.Despite being nice, it couldn't be that Landon w as s willing to be tied to her. The boy was so outstanding, and then, there was her— way below the average.Every glance at Landon only made her self-esteem go lower. However, at the same, a tiny hope of what if bloomed in her chest, spreading its roots more gradually.The car stopped in front of the mansion, and Evelyn entered. Her bag was taken away by the housekeeper, and Landon has been ordered by his grandfather to show her around.Although he maintained a nonchalant attitude, he introduced Evelyn to every corner of the mansion slowly and let her ha
