CHAPTER 62 A Surprise Notification

  Evelyn's POV

  The previous day had been filled with different kind of emotions. Anger, pain, confusion, everything.

  I didn't want to think about it anymore—didn't want to feel those way again. All I wanted was to push it all aside, to forget Nathan, to pretend he never came back.

  Would I say it didn't hurt? It actually did hurt me but getting him out of my mind was for the best.

  If I had survived seven years without him, I could survive now.

  In a strange way, believing he was dead hurt less than having him here and watching him treat me as though I didn't matter.

  If someone had told me back then that Nathan—my Nathan—would act this way, I wouldn't have believed it.

  Not for a second. But now? Now, it was my reality, and no amount of wishing could change it.

  I shook my head, trying to shove the thoughts away. He didn't deserve to occupy my mind. He didn't deserve me.

  "Oh, Evelyn," I muttered, running my hand over my hair in frustration.
