The unexpected visitor

Sofie’s POV

I nervously twirled the engagement ring around my left ring finger as I stared at the professor on the podium.

She was saying something about a group project but my mind couldn't really decipher anything at that moment.

It was filled with thoughts and regretful memories of how I had fucked everything up the previous evening.

If only I hadn't gone to Roman's study or initiated the stupid kiss, then he'd never have known about this mess. I knew Roman and I knew he'd never sit back and wait for me to tell him about Cornelius.

He'd probably kill Cornelius if he found out that he was the bastard that gave me the hickey and I didn't want that.

I just wanted to peacefully graduate without drama but it seemed the universe was clearly against serenity being in my life.

I wondered if Cornelius had survived that hit. It wasn't like I cared if anything had happened to him, he deserved it anyway for even attempting to molest a woman.

I just didn't want to be tagged a murderer
