New chapter. I will be updating weekly. The upcoming chapters will have many twists.
Evelyn's POV
The ride back home was very quite and you can sense the tension between all the four of us. As soon as Kate said that was Cole Damon standing there, all I ever wanted to do was to get out of the car and throw a punch at him. But I knew Harry was watching me and this would result in questioning me so I controlled.
After getting all the drunks inside.., more like dragging them into the house, I went to my room immediately because Harry would be having loads of questions to which I won't be able to answer.
I didn't fall asleep the whole night thinking about it. I mean how can I? He was right there and I still missed him.
"What's so special about Cole?" Kate asked me. I was startled. Wasn't she supposed to be asleep?
"Nothing. Why would you ask that?" I kept it calm.
"For starters, You four guys are hiding something from the rest of us. I don't want to pry but Luke stopping the car as soon as I tell about Cole, Harry and you..., giving this look and Alex, she even took a picture of him."
Damn. Face-palm. So much for keeping it subtle.
"I don't know, the guys were searching for Cole, You know... it seems he is like the son of Silas Damon, the billionaire and all. Luke and Harry were looking into it and found out the first name but not sure if it's him since they don't have a last name. they are tracking all the Cole possible."
Wow, I never knew my lies sound this professional.
"And Kate don't ask the others about it, they didn't want to tell anyone about it. Even we found it by accident."
"Don't worry. My lips are sealed."
Now need to inform Alex. I already had two messages from Alex.
One read, 'Do you know who is Cole?' Along with it a picture of the two people standing. I recognized one of them to be Paul so the other person must be Cole.
Another read, 'Meet me in the living room.' That was about half an hour ago. Shit she is going to kill me.
I went to the room to meet an angry Alex.
"Sorry, I am so sorry." I whispered. "Kate was all over Cole issue. She wanted to know what was going on and I told a big lie." And I repeated the whole lie.
"I hope she doesn't ask those two people. Already they are having doubts and this will be like icing on the cake." Alex sighed. "Alright, I called you here to let you know that we will be meeting with Silas Damon tomorrow. I got an email this evening. I told them we are interviewing him for the college paper."
"But we aren't in college..." She stopped me.
"Yet.., 24 hours doesn't count. We will be going to college by the time he doubts us. The meeting is at 10 am and we have to drive quite far. We should leave by 8 sharp. We both are going to meet my distant relative, that's the lie we can use. And please prepare some questions to at least make it look like an interview."
I nodded. Where does she gets these ideas from?
"Did you get my other message?" She asked, looking concerned.
"Yes and it's the other one. I know this person. His name is Paul. So it got to be the other person."
We both were looking at the other person. So this is Cole Damon.
Alex looked at me confused. "Are you sure?"
"I am positive."
We went to our rooms with that.
