The door creaked and opened slowly before a very tired-looking Edward walked in. I wonder what the two men talked about and how Zak was doing. He did tell me that he was going to call so until then, all I can do is wait for his call.
“How is Zak?” I asked, trying not to sound too overly worried.
“He’s fine. There’s nothing for you to worry about,” Edward replied with a tight smile.
“That’s a relief…” I said as I breathed out the breath that I didn’t know I had been holding.
Edward sat down on the side of the bed before reaching out a warm and comforting hand to stroke my head tenderly. I closed my eyes in bliss as I enjoyed his relaxing touch.
“Natalia…” he whispered my name.
“Hmm?” I responded.
“The relationship between you and Zak has to stop…” Edward said bluntly and without emotions.
I froze at his words. So, Zak told Edward about our relationship? How much did he reveal?
“…because it doesn’t have a future?” I replied automatically in defense.
