Katie has a secret that she has been trying to desperately keep for years.  However, on the last night before is to leave for a prestigious internship, she spills her secret to Mike thinking that he is too drunk and won’t remember it.  Without a word, she leaves the next day and she hasn’t returned since.  That was six years ago. 
Mike also has a secret.  He wasn’t drunk that night and was just acting.  He had been acting drunk for years when the group would go out drinking together because he found Katie would talk more freely to him then.  He was so excited when she finally revealed her truth.  However, Katie left without saying anything to him and he hasn’t talk to her since.  Mike, however, won’t give up on her and has been searching for her ever since.  He won’t stop until he has found his Katie. 

Will Mike ever find her?  Does Katie have more secrets?  What is the real reason that she doesn’t come back to home?

Her Secret, the Billionaire's Heir

　　I don’t know how to do this.  I also really don’t want to do this, but I must.


　　Casper was so scared, and he was still trembling while he was visiting Jenny and even now when we got home.


　　I gather my strength and remind myself Casper’s safety is the important thing here.  He must know he can’t do this again.  It is too dangerous.


　　Shortly after we get home, we all gather in the living room and Casper is still really quiet.  At least he has stopped trembling now.


　　My heart aches seeing him like this.


　　He has been clinging to me ever since this whole situation has happened.  Right now, he is curled up on my lap on the couch with his little arms wrapped tight around me.


　　As everyone watches, I softly ask, “Cass, can we talk about today?”


　　He keeps his head buried in my chest as he mumbles, “Do I have to?”


　　The corners of my mouth curl downward.  I gently rub his back and reply, “Yes.  We have to talk about today.”
