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.

The same way he wanted to know why she didn't tell him about Michael and the reason she called off her wedding six years ago.

"Before I tell you anything. I need to know why you didn't tell me about your relationship with Michael...

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

Derek nodded. "Yes. Your past relationship with him. Why didn't you tell me about it!"

"I'm not talking about Micheal, Eve. Why didn't you tell me! I would have very much preferred to hear it from you than find out about it the way I

I feared you'd call off the interview and it meant so much to me at the time, she admitted and Derek nodded. hearing the sincerity in her voice.

He had figured out that much himself since it made sense, but he had wanted to hear it from her.

"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.
