CHAPTER 21. A chat with Lucille

  Being someone who liked to pride herself on her little strength, Chloe was hating the fact that her illness was barely getting better. And since she refused to go to a hospital, Amir and Gabriel had her put on absolute bed rest for a whole day with restrictions on her movement.

  And that made her hate the illness even more.

  Sniffling as she helped herself up, her mind travelled to Nathaniel who hadn't been seen in the house since Gabriel's little... confession. Or maybe declaration was a better word.

  Even though she always felt that she had no use for human relations, she felt kind of sad that he did not even peep into her room once. She had some kind of expectation in her that he would come at some point. But perhaps she expected too much.

  She was letting just two dates and a few encounters and a kiss lead her mind into thinking too much.
