Chapter 58
Well, it wasn’t Like I could go anywhere else.
After all, Caleb and I were staying in the same hotel.
I followed Adam’s orders and escorted Caleb to the hotel.
I said goodbye to Caleb emotionlessly and was about to leave.
But then Caleb stopped me and said, “Debra, move to the room next to mine.
It’s much better.
”
Debra’s POV:
Only then did it occur to me that this morning, I had been coerced into agreeing to move in to the room next to Caleb’s.
I refused him politely.
“It’s getting Late.
I’LL move in tomorrow.
Good night and sweet dreams!”
I turned around to leave, hoping that’d be the end of it.
But Caleb stopped me and said, “I’ll help you move your things.
”
“No need.
I can do it myself tomorrow.
”
“No.
You have to move in to that room tonight,” Caleb insisted stubbornly.
I was a little annoyed by his pestering.
Looking at his ruddy, drunken face, I couldn’t help but demand coldly, “Let go of me.
You’re drunk.
”
All of a sudden, Caleb cracked a smile and approached my ear, whispering, “I’m not drunk.
”
His face was mere inches away from mine, his lips so close I could almost ki*s them.
His hot breath washed over my face and his intoxicating scent filled my nose, sending shivers down my spine.
This fatal attraction was driving me crazy.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

I swallowed and took a few steps back, trying to keep my emotions at bay.
But Caleb approached me once more.
He came so close that I could count the lashes on his eyes.
“Caleb.
weakly.
“
I reached out my hands and pressed them against his chest ‘Lease stay away from me.
Please.
”
After a short pause, Caleb lowered his head dejectedly.
He almost looked depressed.
“I’m sorry, Debra,” he said softly.
“You’ve suffered because of me I was stunned.
The situation felt so surreal.
After waiting for years, I finally received his apology.
But what was the point of apologizing now? Saying sorry wouldn’t bring Vicky back, nor would it heal the pain I had suffered all these years.
Nothing would change for me.
He was only saying sorry for his own peace of mind.
I raised my head and stared at the ceiling, trying to prevent my tears from falling.
But I could only see the image of Vicky, breathing her last breath.
The corridor fell into dead silence.
Just when I was about to push Caleb away, footsteps came from the other end of the corridor, as if someone was approaching us.
