Chapter 21

• Ella's POV
• My sense of envy overwhelmed me when I saw how Zed cared for Yen. I want to be loved freely like her and by a man who can freely be with me. Yet, it seems I am destined to be involved with a complicated man from a complicated world. That even our dates should be discreet as if I am the worst criminal in the world.
• And now, James is in jail. He may have set me free, but his request binds me to him. I may not like to live a troublesome life – my father even made sure of that– but I can’t turn my back on him. He loves me, does great things for me and my dad.
