Chapter 2

Next Day.

The award ceremony will be at night. Because of the exhaustion from last night Natalia woke up only after the noon. Don't know whether it's because she cried too much, her head was so heavy that it ached badly. After taking a bath she became much refreshed.

Sitting on the couch with her legs crossed and a cup of coffee in one hand and other with an I-pad, she scrolled to see the latest news articles. The news of she, Natalia Nicholas will be awarded with Fields Medal already became trending. Her social media accounts were flooded with wishes and blessings.

Suddenly, a news article became top in the trending list within minutes. Seeing a familiar face in the article Natalia opened the article. The moment she saw the headline the cup she was holding slipped from her hands, falling straight on the ground and shuttered into pieces with a loud clash along with her heart!

[The Head Of Scott Family, Evan Scott: Passed Away In

Accident!]

The death news of the business tycoon spread like wild fire. Soon the Scott family also issued a public statement agreeing with the news, not mentioning the actual cause of accident. The whole internet was in a mess and many articles and speculations about his accident emerged one after another.

[Oh my God!! I just opened internet only to find my idol's death news!!! *heartbroken emoji*]

[Mr. Evan is dead!! How could it be! The National Husband is no more! *shocked emoji*]

[Look at his photo attached. I can't believe he is 40 years

old! He is too young to die!!!]

[**10000+ comments]

Natalia closed the tablet and was still in disbelief.

"He is really gone…"

Mrs. Susan told her this yesterday. But she didn't expect it would really happen. Mrs. Susan tried to match make her and Evan multiple times. So, she thought that she must said that deliberately to make her go there.

But…

Now… He is really no more!

Natalia leaned backwards weakly. Her mind again went back to the time she spent with Evan. Thinking about it now… there was always something strange between them.

A feeling…

**ding…ding…**

The ringtone of her mobile brought her back to the present.

It was Mrs. Susan again. Natalia hesitated for a moment before she answered.

"Mrs. Susan…" Natalia opened her mouth to say something. But she couldn't bring herself to say. What should she say? She don't know. The situation she was facing now was more complicated than solving mathematical equations.

"Ms. Natalia, I am sorry to disturb you again." Mrs. Susan said apologetically.

"Its fine, Mrs. Susan. I--" A sudden feel of guilt stopped her from saying more.

"Evan's funeral was in the morning.

I know you don't wish to interfere with Evan. But… I think I have to trouble Ms. Natalia for one last time. Can you please pay a visit to Evan's villa in XX Street? There is something you need to see here… Please…" Mrs. Susan said while gazing at Evan's bedroom with heartache.

Natalia initially wanted to reject but something whispered inside her mind to go over. Something very important is waiting for her there…

"Okay…" She said.

"Thank you so much, Ms. Natalia." Mrs. Susan expressed her gratitude and hung up. 'This is the last thing I can do for you son. I have to break my promise. Please forgive mom.' Mrs. Susan said in her heart and left him room while keeping the door open.
