Violet
Sleep wasn’t even an option, even though I had been awake for the entire night.
Every minute was precious, so I shut the door after telling my parents that I wanted to get some sleep so that they wouldn't disturb me and opened my laptop.
I knew nothing about this man, but it was time I found out.
If he wanted me to find my own way to repay his favor, then I would start by learning who exactly I was dealing with.
“Elijah Lockwood,” I typed into the search bar.
And nothing worthwhile appeared on the screen.
No social media accounts. No tagged photographs. Not even a mention of family.
Not even the infamous video of ours popped up.
Just the same recycled business articles calling him a self-made billionaire alpha, a recluse, an enigma.
One headline read: Lockwood Internatio
