Burning Passion : Breaking All Rules

When love blossoms unexpectedly between a teacher and student, it is utterly passionate but also dangerous. Spying eyes linger even inside the most deserted hallways, waiting hungrily for a drop of fiery gossip. Gossip which can spell ruin for James’s famed career and for Lia’s chances at her dream university. Heartbreak follows more heartbreak when the two are separated for years through a spider web of misunderstandings and lies, only to be reunited again when fatefully James is Lia’s boss at work. The burning passion which was hidden away for years sparked again, and this time neither of them wanted to hold it in.

Chapter 54 - Festivities

Robin and Mae drive to the restaurant in her car. "Sorry, my friend was supposed to pick me up, so I just walked to the library."

"No problem at all. Do you live nearby?"

"Yeah, in the street across the library."

"Oh is it? I'm a regular at the library and that place too, I've never seen you before though."

"I just moved in there for my PhD."

"Wow! PhD in?"

"English literature."

"Wha-" Mae's mouth opens wide. "What a coincidence! I'm a literature student, just finished my masters last year."

"Really!? What are the odds of meeting a literature student at a library, right?" Robin mimics her excitement.

Mae realises he was teasing her and frowns at him. "I just got excited okay, it's been so long since I met someone from that field."

"Sorry, just kidding. That is really cool, what are you doing now?"

"Freelance writing as of now, but planning to pursue a PhD later."

"You know whom to approach for help if any, then."
