Be together properly?
Now I wasn't just suspecting that Ferris had lost his mind; I was starting to think my own brain was malfunctioning.
Did I actually lose a chunk of my memory? What exactly had happened behind the scenes to trigger such a massive shift in his attitude toward me?
Just half a month ago, he had been completely indifferent to me, coldly forcing me into his deal. Back then, he couldn't wait to finalize our divorce. If it hadn't been for the 30-Day Mandatory Cooling-Off Period, he would have married his precious darling long ago.
Even a few days ago, when I was attacked by Zoey's mother, he rushed to the 5th Precinct and used our divorce certificate to threaten me into letting Julia off.
Piece by piece, the evidence proved exactly where he stood. How could he have possibly changed his tune in just two days?
I brushed my fingertips over my lips.
Ferris's kiss had been so desperate and deep, and my resistance so fierce, that my lips were still slightly swollen and throbbing.
The faint sting served as a sharp reminder that none of this was a dream or a hallucination. It had really happened.
Just then, a ringtone interrupted my thoughts.
Snapping out of my daze, I immediately answered the phone. "Dr. Cross."
"Selena, I think you forgot something very important." On the other end, Caspian's voice was laced with amusement. Even through the phone, I could perfectly picture the lazy, roguish smirk on his face.
"Sorry about that. I was washing up and forgot to text you that I made it back safely." I knew exactly what he was talking about and replied with a smile.

Story is fine but...Oh god! Such a slow and dragging story. She is always fainting or confused. Has no backbone, very irritating story. Better to avoid...
