Chapter 47

Camille was preparing to leave.

Quietly, imperceptibly perhaps, but preparing all the same.

Like the lights being switched off in an office block, one by one, she closed the little doors to her heart— applying for other jobs, being more assertive with the agent about the house—and now she had to do it working alongside the man who had shattered her heart.

Sebastian still hadn't returned to the office. He'd gone out of town to take a break, but Camille knew he was simply avoiding her and his brother, who was basically her new boss now.

Theo had done the same, until two days ago when he'd returned. There was no talk of the island, what had happened there, or any personal talk for that matter. It was straight to business, and Camille had done her best to do her job right, but his attitude only proved one thing, he didn't want her there anymore. He didn't have to say it, but Camille figured it was only a matter of time before he did.
