Chapter 41Sebastian ~•~As I waited for Zara in the hotel room, I couldn’t help but wonder how I had gotten into such a situation. I couldn’t get the expensive necklace for her anymore, so I had no choice but to meet up with her. Zara was already on her way up to my hotel room. I couldn’t risk meeting her at my house. I stood up from the bed and walked over to the door as I heard a gentle knock. As soon as I opened the door and let Zara inside, she pulled me into a tight hug. Immediately, I closed the door, so nobody would see us in such a compromising position. Zara clearly had feelings for me but she had no idea that she was a pawn in my game. I had no idea how to get rid of her because she technically blackmailing me. “Why aren’t you happy to see me?” Zara’s face formed into a frown as she broke the hug. “Didn’t you miss me?” She asked, tracing her fingers around my face. I nodded my head. “I missed you.” The lie tastes bitter on my lips. I didn’t miss Zara. If I had my wa

Chapter 42Ivy Chase ~•~“Wow, I had no idea you were going through that.” My sister’s voice cracked slightly as she responded. “You could have told me about it earlier.” I was tired of bearing the burden alone, so I finally decided to open up to my sister about everything that had happened with Zara and Sebastian. As I talked about it, I felt so embarrassed and hurt. It took me a while to muster up the courage to talk to Serena about it, but I was glad I did. I felt a lot better because she didn’t even try to judge me or make me feel less of myself for still entertaining Sebastian. I let out a wistful sigh. “I know, I should have told you but I wasn’t sure how to say it,” I admitted. “Please, don’t mention this to our parents.” Serena exhaled heavily. “Sure, I won’t say anything to them until you’re ready to tell them.” She assured me, her voice laced with pity. She had listened attentively when I told her about my plans. Serena was fully in support and decided to help me how

Chapter 43Ivy Chase ~•~My heart raced in my chest as I drove over to the place where Zara had asked me to meet her. Initially, I didn’t want to go but what else did I have to lose? As I got to the cafe, I saw Zara already seated by the window side. My palms were clammy with sweat as I walked over to her table. I already knew our conversation was going to be awkward. “Hey,” I muttered under my breath as I sat across from her. “Hey.” She responded, her voice barely above a whisper.I used to be filled with rage whenever I thought about Zara. Whenever I remembered how she betrayed me. Twice. But it was different this time. I wasn’t angry at her anymore. I had channeled all my anger to someone else. I just felt a hole in my chest, wondering why she would ever agree to join Sebastian to set me up. “Why did you want to meet?” I asked, cutting straight to the chase. I wasn’t interested in the fake pleasantries. Zara’s expression was neutral. “You heard the phone conversation, rig

Chapter 44Ivy Chase ~•~I didn’t want to be alone. I couldn’t go back home because I was going to be miserable if left alone with my thoughts. I had too much to process and didn’t want to think about it just yet.After circling the city for a few minutes, I decided to head over to Parker’s house. I had called him immediately after I left Zara. I needed a friend and he was the only person I could think of. Parker was kind enough to allow me to go to his house. When I arrived at his house, he led me to the fountain side at his house. “You sounded like you were crying on the phone.” He gave me a concerned look as I settled on the wooden reclining chair. I took a deep breath, trying to steady my voice before speaking. I didn’t want to cry in front of Parker. I needed to get myself together. “Sebastian was behind everything.” My words were spoken in a low, quiet tone. Parker became intrigued. “What are you talking about?” He asked, his eyebrows slightly lowered. “What happened?” H

Chapter 45Ivy Chase ~•~Parker’s eyes twinkled with mischief as he leaned back. “Well, Ivy.” He began, drawing out his words deliberately. “What do you think happened that night?”My pulse quickened and I averted my gaze, fingers nervously twisting the hem of my sleeve. “I was drugged. I still can’t remember.” My voice was barely above a whisper. The uncertainty had been gnawing on me and I wanted to know the truth. A soft chuckle escaped Parker’s lips, the sound both relaxing and infuriating. “Relax, Ivy. You look so tense.” He laughed. His suspense was killing me and he was enjoying my reaction to his teasing. “Parker, just tell me.” I pleaded, my eyes mirroring my desperation. “I really need to know,” I added. He let out a heavy sigh and lifted his hands in mock surrender. “Fine, I’ll tell you.” He replied. “But you have to promise not to be mad.” My heart leaped into my throat. Did it actually happen? Why did I have to promise not to be mad? I wasn’t even sure I was ready

Chapter 46Sebastian ~•~My phone buzzed with an incoming text from Ivy. I hesitated for a moment before opening it. [Clear your schedule for tomorrow, I need to see you. We have something important to talk about.] Panic surged through me as I read Ivy’s text message. What important thing could she possibly want to talk about?My mind wandered back to Zara. Earlier in the day when we were arguing, she threatened to expose everything to Ivy. What if she actually said something to her?A sense of unease settled in the pit of my stomach. I tried to push the thought aside, convincing myself that Ivy would have confronted me immediately if she knew the truth. But the uncertainty lingered. I took a deep breath, trying to stay calm as I tried to figure out what else Ivy would want to talk about. Maybe it was something entirely different from Zara’s threats. As I responded to the text, I tried my best to sound casual despite my growing sense of unease. [Okay, I’ll clear out my schedule

Chapter 47Ivy Chase ~•~I barely got any sleep the previous night. Even the milk didn’t help me. I was up most parts of the night, thinking about what my life had turned into.I couldn’t believe I was going through something like that. By the time I finally slept, it was almost dawn. After about three hours, my eyes fluttered open. I climbed out of bed and made my way to the bathroom. I turned on the tap at the sink and washed my face. I was still feeling sleepy but I knew I couldn’t get any more sleep. I went ahead to brush my teeth before heading back to my room. I picked up my phone from the drawer and turned it on. As I scrolled through my phone, I saw that I had gotten several messages. [ I hope you slept well, I was trying to reach you but your phone wasn’t going through.] My lips curled into a small smile as I read Parker’s message. It was nice of him to check up on me. I quickly responded before opening the next message. It was from Sebastian. [Okay, I’ll clear out

Chapter 48Sebastian ~•~After thinking about everything for a while, I decided to cancel on Ivy. I couldn’t miss that business meeting for anything. I was disappointed by her reaction when I told her about the meeting. Normally, Ivy would have been happier than me, but she seemed uninterested. It was just as though she didn’t care about my success anymore. Or maybe she was just upset because I canceled on her. Either way, I shoved the thoughts about her and focused on the meeting. I had already texted my assistant to let her know I would be on my way to the office.I changed my outfit into something more professional, and then I grabbed my car keys and headed out of the house. I was excited but nervous about it at the same time. I prayed silently that everything would work out.This was something I had been wanting for months and I had finally gotten an opportunity. I increased my speed as I drove over to the office. I wanted to get there in time to prepare with my team before

Chapter 49Ivy Chase ~•~Serena wasn’t having it anymore. I tried so hard to convince her that I had everything in control and knew exactly what I was doing. But she still hated the fact that I was still speaking to Sebastian. As soon as he called to say he was coming over, she decided to leave the house. She was meant to spend the night at my place but she changed her mind. Even when I wanted to cancel with Sebastian and ask him to come some other time, she still wasn’t interested in spending the night. She just said she hoped I was making the right decision. To be honest, I also hoped that I was making the right decision. As I walked her to her car, she ignored Sebastian’s existence and couldn’t stop frowning. I didn’t blame her for acting the way she did. I stood outside and watched her as she drove away before turning back to meet Sebastian. I had to apologize on Serena’s behalf because I didn’t want Sebastian to suspect anything. I went ahead to ask him about how his me

Chapter 50Ivy Chase ~•~“Are you sure you want to carry on with this wedding?” Zara asked as we made our way into the wedding dress shop.I nodded. “Yes.” Her face formed into a frown. “Why? Have you forgotten everything I told you? Have you forgotten about the conversation you overheard?”A soft chuckle escaped my lips. “No, Zara. I remember everything vividly.” I replied as a staff member led us to a waiting room. “Then why are you shopping for a wedding dress?” She asked, her voice skeptical. “Sebastian isn’t good for you. I don’t think this is a good idea.” “I gave you a second chance, right?” I asked, staring at her. “I think he also deserves a second chance,” I added, my voice calm. Zara let out a frustrated sigh. “I know but I asked for forgiveness, but Sebastian didn’t. Who knows what else he has planned for you.” I wasn’t sure Zara was genuinely concerned about me. She was probably advising me to leave him because of her own selfish reasons.Maybe she was jealous seei
