Chapter 55

Derek held Evelyn's gaze for a moment as he contemplated telling her about his suspicions.

Although it was shameful to admit to her that it was a member of his family who had caused him all that trouble, Derek knew she deserved in know.

"My past relationship with Michael. I have no relationship with him now she corrected not wanting to be associated with him like that.

"If you don't mind me asking, what exactly happened six years ago? Although I saw Michael and how hurt he was, I also saw you that day. I can tell. there's a story behind your actions so, what's the story?" Derek asked, hoping she would tell him this time.
