"You know that is not the case." I mumbled into the phone "I'm not going to change my mind."

"A bet is a bet and I will win." His voice broke as delivered his sentence "I want my girl back. I want my Ella back."

My eyes closed and I let out a shaky breath.

"I'm really tired." I said into the phone.

A deep sigh left him before he instructed sternly "Please go to bed and rest."

"Okay." I replied quietly.

"I love you." He rasped out before he ended the line.

I threw the phone onto the bed and covered my face with my hands.

I felt sick and I felt nauseous. I felt dizzy. It was like I was being pulled in so many directions that I did not know what was up and what was down. I did not know what was right or what was wrong.

Lana took a look at the phone then she focused back on me and asked "What is the matter?"

"He thinks that my side of the bet is a Sisyphean one."

She adjusted herself so she was facing me before she questioned "You really expect me to understand what that means?"

"Sisyphus was this man that betrayed the gods so he was sent to the underworld. His punishment was that he had to roll a massive boulder up a hill but every time he got up there then the wind would roll it back down. A Sisyphean challenge can not be completed." I gave her a quick explanation before I revealed "He thinks that he has already won."

Her eyes met mine and she tilted her to the side as she watched my tear-streaked face.

"Has he not?" She asked.

Chapter Fifty-Five

Lana leaned to the side so she could whisper "He is going to result to locking you up."

Stone had started a new approach which was to not speak to me. I did not know if his silence was a part of some sort of plan but if I could take a guess then it was probably because he was so enraged that I showed up at school.

I could feel the classroom walls close around me. All I could feel was his stormy gaze on the back of my neck. It was so heated that it sent shivers down my spine. It was enough to make me sit straight up in my chair.

It had not faltered since I had stepped foot in Mr Dankworth's classroom. It was pretty obvious that me coming to school had pushed him too far and he was now livid.

As the lesson continued, I finally turn around and faced his thunder-like expression and I asked "How did you know that I was planning to come to school?"

His fist that was resting on the desk clenched and unclenched but he did not reply.
