Chapter 47 We Are Done

Composing my surging emotions, I slightly pushed him away from me.

“Should we make a toast?” Without meeting his gaze, I walked towards the wine cellar, pulled out the bottle, and set the glasses for us while Derek watched me silently.

Smoothly I filled the glasses and then walked over to him.

“Here…” He looked at me stunned for a moment and then finally returned to his senses when I said aloud.

“For the new beginning.” I made a toast.

Our glasses clinked together.

CLINK

I took a huge gulp, it burned my throat but it was good, drinking wine after such a long time felt extremely weird yet ravenous.

“And what about you, would you like to make any toast?” I asked him sweetly.

His gaze met mine, and there was a cold chill in the air around us when I thought he would just shrug off, he opened his mouth making my heartbeat accelerate.

“Amy…” He looked hesitant and somehow I got a bad feeling about it.
