Chapter Twenty One

Jake’s POV:I asked James to get the CCTV footage from the campus for that particular day and I was eager to see if it was Alex. I really didn’t want it to be him. James handed me the Pendrive once he reached my house.“Mr.Miller, there is no way we could have missed him. I have my guys monitoring the campus. It’s impossible.” He stated as a matter of factly and I nodded in agreement.“Let’s see if your guys did a good job,” I sighed and texted Ashley since I didn’t get a call or message from her the entire day. She must be at work right now.

Chapter Twenty Two

The next morning, I woke up before him. I think it was only 5 am. I made myself a cup of coffee and sat on the balcony which had a beautiful view of the city. His house was on the 20th floor. I still didn’t have a full tour of the house. The sun was rising, turning the sky into vivid colors making me feel calm. I kept thinking about all the stuff that happened yesterday. No matter how much Jake convinced me, there was a part of me that was worried. What would have happened if I hadn’t gone out with him? He would be with a normal girl leading a normal life. I started thinking about all the what if’s. I didn’t want to lose him. I couldn’t even imagine what I would do if I lost him. A tear escaped my eyes and I wiped it with my hands. He loved me so much, I could see it. I prayed to God hopi

Chapter Twenty Three

By the time I woke up, it was 9 pm, I rubbed my eyes and found myself on his bed and smiled realizing that Jake was home. I jumped out of the bed in excitement and went out, to find him in the kitchen cooking, shirtless. Holy cow! I would love to wake up to this every day. I watched him silently, hiding myself from his view, as he started chopping the veggies, making his muscles flex and I was drooling at the sight in front of me. I walked over to him and hugged him from behind."Hey, sleepyhead." He turned around and kissed me on the forehea

Chapter Twenty Four

I walked beside him in embarrassment hanging my head low. “Ashley, dear, How are you?” I looked up to meet his father's gaze.“Fi..Fine Mr.Miller, How are you?” I stuttered and I saw Jake trying to hold back his laughter. I glared at him and gave a small smile to his dad.“Sorry to interrupt dear, I just wanted to talk to my son about the compa

Chapter Twenty Five

The graduation ceremony had started by the time we reached and everyone was settled already. I found a seat for myself, kissing him one last time. I could see Dan and Austin, already in their graduation robes, and greeted Jake, when he arrived. It was beautifully decorated and packed. Some boring people were giving their speech and that’s when I noticed his father was the guest of honor. Woah! He was going to get his degree from his own dad. How cool was that! I smiled and realized it was only a matter of time until I receive my very own degree in this hall.

Chapter Twenty Six

“What?” I asked him in shock. My head started spinning and I was feeling light-headed. I sat down on the couch and blood drained from both of our faces. I couldn’t believe it. Why would Alex kill Chad when he asked us to release him? They were in this together. Nothing made sense but I was sure of one thing. Alex was capable of killing and wouldn’t hesitate to do so. I was shaking and found it difficult to breathe normally.

Chapter Twenty Seven

I spent two days in boredom. As much as I loved coming home. I had nothing to do here. I spoke with Emma and told her about what happened. She had been following the news too and tried to comfort me. I didn’t speak with Jake much. Whenever I called, it went straight to voicemail and I always got a text saying he was busy. What was he busy with? It’s not like there was any improvement with the case. He is not going to the office too. I was losing my mind and missed him so badly. It was my birthday tomorrow. Did he even know about it? I didn’t mention it to him. If he was sneaky enough to find out my mom’s phone number, he should have known about my birthday. I don’t think he was going to come down here and I thought of heading back to New York tomorrow.

Chapter Twenty Eight

“Hey, didn’t you go home?” I asked James once I was in front of him.“No, Ms.Albright. I’m really sorry about everything. At least one good thing happened at the end of all this.” He sighed and we both sat down.“Tell me what happened after I left town.” I placed the food on the seat beside me and turned towards him.

Chapter Twenty Nine

Jake’s POV:I woke up early the next day and started working on the presentation for the new hotel that I was going to build. We have been working on it for months now and it was my dream project. Dad has been proud of my work so far but I had to work even harder. I was busy in the study room that I didn’t notice her entering. She pushed my laptop and sat on my lap and I cradled her.“Why are you up so early?” she said in a sleepy voice. I noticed

Chapter Thirty

After finishing my work and assignments, I looked up the clock to see the time. It was 6 pm. I had only an hour to get ready. Shit! I rushed into the bathroom and took a nice shower. It came out of the bathroom in a flimsy towel and let out a scream when I found Jake on the bed looking at his phone, my towel almost slipping from my body.“Jesus! I thought you were going to be late. You scared me, Jake.” I huffed and tied my towel tighter around my body and walked over to the dressing table.
