Chapter 79
Eden’s POV
Sam moved aside, permitting him to walk in..
“Good evening sir.” Sam greeted him.
1 looked at her with much disbelief, it’s obvious that she invited him over.
“Evening Sam,” he replied, his gaze was fixed on me as he talked.
I quietly looked at him. Sam hit me with her body. I guess she wants to tell me that I was giving an awkward vibe,
I acted like I didn’t feel anything
“Why are you?” I asked into his face.
“I miss you Eden,” he said leaning to hug me.
1 dodged the hug. “You coming here might add fuel to an already flaming fire, what if someone sees you while you’re walking in here,”
“I made sure
no one saw me,” he said with so much assurance.
I chuckled, “Am I suppose to believe that?”
“You remember that day at the office, I told you I heard footsteps but you talked me into believing that I was just been. sensitive to the environment, and now a photo from that day circulating the media and you want me to believe you now?” I said with constant points at him.
Tears slowly run down my cheek.
“Eden please trust me,” he pleaded.
“The last time I trust you what happened,huh? It landed us into this great mess we are swimming in “I said, my voice shaking with emotion.
“My life is under so much threat at the moment and my career to, this whole thing is escalating, your mom had call me to warn me, so please you should stay in your lean while I stay at mine”
“We are from two different repelling world that can never meet,
“No Eden, don’t say that, “Hunter’s face fell as he speak, but he didn’t give up.
“Eden, please listen to me. I know that you’re hurt and scared, but I love you, I want to make it right, please join hands with and let our love conquer.”
He words sinks into my heart, I felt a cold shiver run down my spine
I love you Hunter,” I whispered under my breath.
“Then let’s fight for what we share,” he said
“Did you hear that?”
“Hear what?

Chapter 79
“Nevermind,” I shove inoff.
“I promise you, I will fix things right, with both my mom and Alexis,”
“Don’t bother doing that, just go ahead with you wedding to….”
I mumbled the rest of the words in his mouth, he gently sucked my lips and my adrenaline came rushing down, for a moment I kissed him back and sudden pull from it.
“Eden. I know you missed me to please don’t deny us the experience of love,” he pleaded softly.
A part of me wants him to myself, but the fear in me supersede whatever it is that I’m feeling for him.
1 laughed bitterly. “Make it right? You think you can just waltz in here and fix everything with a few sweet words? When the people you’re supposed to be talking to at the moment are your mom and Alexis,”
“My parents are worried about me.”
“You should forget about me, and move on, I have moved on already.”
His eyes narrowed, a hint of anger flashing in them. “You’re not over me, Eden. I can see it in your eyes. You’re still hurting. still angry. But I’m willing to work through it with you.”
I shook my head, feeling a mix of sadness and frustration. “You’re not listening. Hunter. I don’t want to work through it with you. I want you to leave me alone”
Is fear that is speaking through you, Eden, please let’s work things out,” he pleaded.
“My career is ruined.”
Oh no! “This is no good at all,” Sam exclaimed.
“What
“Sir, I think someone followed you here.”
“I made sure no one was following me, why did you u say so?”
“I just received a notification, with a headline that states, “Hunter Bradford sneaking his way into the house where his… sher read an stopped hallway.
My eyes begin to turn in three sixty and my head spins, my stomach hurts, my stomach churns with anxiety. I tried to hold myself, but I couldn’t.
“Eden, Eden are you okay?” voices echoed in my head, I felt multiple hands around and the next time I opened my eyes I saw Sam and Hunter seated beside me on the couch where I lay
“You scared us,” Sam said.
“Take a drink,” Sam handed to me the glass of water In her hand,
“What are you still doing here?” I asked Hunter who was trying to get closer to me.
“Eden, I’m sorry but we need to get you out of here as soon as possible to a place that is more safe,”
“If you had not shown your face here, it would have been safe for me,”
“Eden, it’s no time to shift blames, we need to get you out of here”
