Chapter 35
I entered the CR while the three bodyguards were outside. I entered an empty cubicle because the two cubicles were full.
I accidentally saw the shoe in the other cubicle. Silver and prada. I sighed and shook. It’s not her, I’m just paranoid.
After I did what I had to do I flushed. I exited the cubicle and washed my hands at the faucet. I looked at myself in the mirror and noticed that my cheeks were getting a little fatter.
I was frustrated. Others say that when the baby grows up, it looks ugly. Alas, please don’t! I didn’t look ugly when I made Ice pregnant.
I straightened my hair but was immediately stopped when I saw the familiar figure of a woman looking at me from the mirror.
I turned to face him and stared at him.
“Look who’s here. Squatter persons were allowed here in the mall.” He says.
My mouth tightened. Who else was it in front of me now? Edi and Lara.
But I immediately smiled. “Me too, I can’t believe it. I wasn’t informed that there could be leeches in the mall. All I know was, there were no insects here …” I said emphatically while glaring at him.
He also looked at me and waved. We just lost our gaze when someone came out of a cubicle so we looked there.
“Lara … let’s go there-” the woman stopped talking and turned to me. “Rigella Chrysostom?” He asked with a frown.
My forehead furrowed. Who was she?Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Corrine. Meet Xyleus first. I don’t want to be a chaperone. Duh.” Lara said artfully so I could almost gasp.
But wait … Xyleus. Familiar name …
“Xyleus Santiago?” Kunot when I asked. It’s Ivan’s best friend.
Corrine raised an eyebrow at me. I know her, she must be the one I dealt with for the boutique.
“You know him?” He could answer the question.
“Yes. He’s my HUSBAND’S best friend.” I even stared at Lara while saying the word “husband”.
“Oh, alright.” Corrine stared at me and turned to Lara. “Xyleus won’t come. His wife was going to have a baby. Darlyn Alcantara? Oh, that bitch. We don’t have time for Xyleus right now.” His promise was annoying.
Darlyn Alcantara? Seymour’s sister Darlyn? Oh my God! Meaning, Corrine was Xyleus’ sidekick!
Be a best friend fixture?
“Leave me for a while, Corrine. I have something to finish here …” Lara said and looked at me.
Corrine just stared and left. Lara went to the door and locked it. What will he do?
He came back in front of me and looked at me again.
“You bitch! The thickness of your face!” He was still stabbing me so I frowned.
“What were you saying there? were you insane?” I asked annoyed.
“YOU! You were the reason why Ivan and I broke up!” He kept shouting.
What? “What am I? You’re the one who broke up, aren’t you?” I said sarcastically. This woman was really crazy.
‘that’s because you did something to her. Tell me, did you charm her ?!”
I was stunned. What a desperate bitch. Gayuma? As if it’s still a trend these days.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I passed him and was about to come out when he pushed me back.
“We’re not done yet, bitch! Don’t turn your back on me!”
I took a deep breath. I’m running out of patience. “What’s wrong with you ?!”
“You! I hate you! I hate your fucking existence! Why was everything so easy for you ?! Why me, why am I suffering ?! It’s all gone but why did you take Ivan from me? You’re too selfish ! ” I saw the edge of her tears.
Am I stupid because I feel sorry for him? “I didn’t kidnap him from you, Lara. Then they said, don’t let go of the thing that you can’t see others holding. And please, don’t say that I already have everything because that’s not true.” I seriously promise.
She was stunned and her tears were already flowing. I’m sad for her. For the three of us. I’m the only one who’s in trouble with them.
I smiled at her bitterly. “It’s not easy to find someone who won’t hurt you. So go for the person that makes the pain worth while …” I said then slowly walk away from her.
I was about to turn the door knob when he pulled his hair out. What the hell?
I immediately walked away from him and frowned at him. He was the one who gave the advice and then he was the one to pull it out?
“You don’t just order me like that! I love Ivan and I’m willing to fight for him. Yes, you know my name but you don’t know my story. You’ve heard what I’ve done, but not what I’ve been through. I’m strong, Rigella. And I’m going to take what’s rightfully mine! ”
I was stunned. Desperate moves. I have nothing to say.
“Do you really hate me, Lara?” I have a serious question.
She smirked. “YES! I hate you to death!”
I showed her my poker face. “You know what, you don’t really hate me. You just hate yourself because I’m a reflection that you wished to be.” I strongly promise.
Her forehead creased. “were you saying that I’m unsecured? That I’m jealous of you ?!”
“Who knows? But based on what I’m actually seeing right now, yes. A big YES. But hey, I never gave you a reason to hate me. You’re just creating your own little drama of pure INSECURITY.” I will emphasize. I have run out of patience with him.
Her lips parted. I think, I just hit the bull’s eye.
But he recovered quickly. “How dare you-!” He was about to slap me when I broke his hand.
“I dare, Lara!”
I was about to slap him so he closed his eyes. I just smirked. Coward bitch.
