Chapter 51

Both Alice and Darius looked up at the person who walked up to their table. Darius had a calm expression when he saw the person, but the same couldn‘t be said for Alice. Her eyes were as wide as saucers. 

The person who walked up to their table was Michael Finn, the sole heir of the Finn conglomerate! Michael Finn was Alice‘s classmate in high school two years ago. Back in their high school, Michael Finn was a very popular figure. He always had tons of people looking up to him and following him about. He was handsome, intelligent and rich, so it was no wonder that many people wanted to be his friend. 

Alice on the other hand was not so rich. She never even believed herself to be in his level so she didn‘t pay attention to him. 

However, rumors started flying that Michael was interested in Alice. Alice thought it to be a lie as she didn’t have anything to offer him, but when she heard that he rejected the advances of several of her schoolmates, she started having wild thoughts. Few weeks later, Michael asked her to be his girlfriend in front of the whole student body. Being the naïve high school girl she was, she accepted his proposal and became his girlfriend. Unfortunately for her, that was the beginning of her nightmares. Michael Finn came from a very established household, where he was pampered and treated as a king, therefore he was very possessive. Only three days into their relationship, he forbade her from speaking to any of her male school mates. Anytime she was caught disobeying his rule, the male in question would suddenly withdraw from the school, and nothing would be heard about him anymore. When her male friends and school mates heard Michael‘s rule, they steered clear from her, isolating her. All of them refused to talk to them anymore, afraid of bringing Michael‘s wrath on themselves. It was a dark period of time for Alice. 

Just when she thought it couldn‘t get any worse, he gave her a new rule that forbade her from talking to her female friends. She was only allowed to talk to him and him alone.
