Lucy's pov;The entire car ride went silent except for the sound of the wind rushing around us through the open window and the radio. When I looked at him, he was focused on driving in a way that showed how anxious he felt inside. When it got to the point where he couldn't take the silence any longer, he broke it. "Rupert said he found something." He gave me a sideways glance before turning his eyes back onto the road and continuing. "So I'm meeting him tomorrow. I know you might not want to come with me, but remember that this is about Tyler and not us. I have a feeling that This could be important." Since I didn't reply, he said, "Anyway, if anything goes wrong-" he glanced over at me again - "Are you listening to me?" I ignored him and looked outside the window again. His voice lowered, "Look, it's okay to say no if you're not interested." I just kept looking out my window, ignoring him again. "Only if you speak, I'll..." Before he finishes, I interrupted him saying, "I said

Lucy's pov;While I was still on the floor right outside Daniel's room, my phone rang. Who's calling me now? The thought crossed my mind as I fumbled for my phone and answered, "Hello?" "Why is my wife still awake?" asked a slightly muffled male voice. It's Tyler. It's like 1 in the morning, babe." "I..." I remembered the CCTV on every floor. If I lie now, Tyler will know that I lied to him when he checks the footage so I said, "I had a fight with Daniel." "What happened?" he asked. "Well, um..." he was always more open than the others so I tried teasing him. "He said some things, but I told him off because of it." "Like what?" he was really worried. "Like saying that we shouldn't have any kids because of the contract!" It felt like he stopped breathing. "What did you tell him?" he whispered urgently. "Well... I just told him not to worry about it since it's none of his business..." there was no response from him, just a slight rustling, then he came back. "Oh.'' There was a

Lucy's pov;At the movie theatre, the lights went out at once and it was as quiet as a grave. No music could be heard anymore. The audience had vanished completely. It was dark and eerie. Everyone knew that a horror film always began with a blackout. That's when it was most likely to end in blood spatter and screams. Tyler held my hands tight to my body as I stared straight ahead. I turned to him and asked, "Are you scared of horror movies?" He shook his head vigorously from side to side and nodded his head yes. "Then why did you bring me here? you could have taken me to a nice museum or something where there are not many people- Wait... I forgot that you hate being in crowded places. Why did you bring me here again?" "I looked it up on the internet..." Before he finished, I interrupted, "It all makes sense now. I wondered why you took me to the beach yesterday and now we're in the movie theatre so... what place did you plan after this?" He gave me a nervous smile saying, "Um,

Daniel's POV;After waiting for a long time, I left the house to look for Tyler and Lucy. I didn't need to go that far out of my way to find them, because they're not kids but still the reason they're not home is still making me worry. Did something happen to Tyler or Lucy? Did someone hurt them? What if someone tried to kidnap either of them ?! Or maybe I can ask them about it and find out what was happening with them. So I made calls for both of them , hoping one of them would answer or at least reply back. But nobody picked up, so I just kept trying to contact them. The more it went on, the angrier I got, until finally, I called one of my friends and asked to track down Tyler and Lucys phone number. Minutes later, my friend sent me a location with a message, 'Both the phone's are in the same place.' When I opened the location, it showed me where I had to go, so I headed there as fast as possible without looking suspicious. It was already starting to get dark by the time I arrived

Lucy's pov;I sat by the window in my room looking out over the night sky , staring at the stars because I couldn't fall asleep with all the thoughts running through my mind. I sighed and closed my eyes. There was no point in thinking about my problems because there isn't any solution to them. When I walked to my bed to lay down, I heard noise from downstairs. I slowly peeked outside my room and saw a light on at the end of the corridor. Who's awake this late at night? I thought to myself and tried to see who it was, but they had put up their hood and were walking away as soon as they spotted me. My curiosity spiked. Why would anyone be walking down those dimly lit halls at midnight? I decided to check it out and followed them. They were still walking when I got to a corner. I hid behind some stairs while they stopped. With the height, I could say it wasn't Tyler since he's taller than this guy. Is it Daniel? I wondered but shook my head and watched. The guy turned around and I c

Lucy's pov;The class bell rang out and the students began filing into their seats. A few seconds later, there was another bell and a few more students entered. Once they were all seated, a voice from the front of the classroom called out, "Attention all students! There's an election for vice-president position and I'm sure that everyone is excited about it! The election will be held in the next few days!"At that moment, there was a knock at the door to the classroom followed by Mr Colson saying, "Sorry to interrupt your class. Could someone come here please?" He waited a minute or so before calling out, "Ms Jones, would you kindly come over here and help me out please?" I walked to him and asked, "Yes, Mr Colson? What can I do for you today?" He replied, “I want you to run to my office , collect your schedule, and then report to the auditorium, where all the students will be having their seminar today." I nodded in agreement with his request and headed to the office as he i

Lucy's pov;At the restaurant, I order water from the waitress before she leaves for another customer. Matt, "Why don't we have drinks since we're meeting after a long time?" asks with an easy grin. "I'm still not... used to the whole 'drinking ' thing," There was a silence that I didn't know how to break, I felt uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and continued, "How's your father? Is he still drinking as much as ever?" He asked it with concern, I think. I shrugged, "Not really. Because he passed away not long after when you left." The environment was silent until Matt said, "Sorry" in almost a whisper. I nodded and said, "Let's not talk about him ." We smiled at each other but didn't speak. He turned to look outside, staring blankly out of the large glass window, a clouded expression on his face, he sighed softly. "What about you? How has your life been?" I asked hesitantly. He looked back at me and laughed a sad, dry chuckle saying, "It hasn't been great. I mean, there

Tyler's POV;The alarm clock went off as it always did for the same morning hour, but this time it was different. No alarm was ringing to startle me up. I woke from an uneasy dreamless sleep in a drowsy haze and stretched himself out into the sun that shone brightly through his window. The curtains were drawn back to let the warm sunlight stream in over my bed. It took me a few seconds to remember where I was, and why the day before had been so... vivid. I got changed and came downstairs to make breakfast but I didn't feel like eating so I made a simple breakfast of toast and peanut butter instead. While I was eating the toast , Daniel took a seat across from me at the dining table asking, "Why didn't you prepare some eggs?"I stared at him as if he'd grown a second head. "What?" "Nothing." and he ate the bread in silence. After a while, he said to me as he pushed back his chair, "Do you need anything?" and I answered no. I finished my food and cleaned the dishes before go

Lucy's pov;Daniel, "The doctor said Tyler will wake up in a little bit," he said softly as he took a seat beside me in the waiting room. He lifted my chin to make me look at him directly and smiled. "Don't worry, he'll be fine. He just needs to rest to get back on his feet." I tried to smile back, but it looked more like a grimace. My eyes are still swollen and my head still hurts, so it's hard to focus properly. He wiped my cheeks saying something about how they're getting redder, even though I've been wiping them for the past three hours. The skin under my eyes is raw from crying all day long. "I'm going to tell him." He retreated his hands asking, "What are you gonna tell him?" "The reason I married him. I'm going to tell him everything.""Tell him what?" He asked again like he didn't hear what I said earlier. "That I married him to get his company's confidential information." My eyes widened as soon as I realised what I was thinking. But my mouth wouldn't shut fast enough

Lucy's pov;Matt and I arrived at the museum in no time flat, it wasn’t that far of a drive from our apartment to the museum and we had planned on spending the day there , just me, Matt, and a small amount of our own belongings. The weather was pretty nice so I figured that would be okay. But then when we got there, it turned out that there was snow everywhere, so now my plans have changed quite drastically. I mean, how could I possibly enjoy any kind of art exhibit while the snowstorm is outside? I guess you can call it an unfortunate coincidence but it definitely didn’t help me with my decision making skills. So now, as we make our way through the crowds, my heart sinks lower and lower every second that passes, until suddenly I find myself standing by Matt, completely frozen in place as I look at the giant statue before us. It’s one of those statues with all the classical sculptures in the front entrance. My eyes are fixed straight ahead of me, not looking at anything or anyone a
