Chapter 76
Arielyn
“No, don’t you dare lock the door, I don’t want to listen to you, I don’t want to have any kind of conversation with you on any matter, I just want to leave, I have had enough, I don’t want to cause a scene, that should be good news to you,”
I yelled at him, the fact that he locked the door didn’t stop me from continuing what I was doing, I wasn’t going to stay or listen to anything he had to say.
“No, I am not going to let you leave until you listen to what I have to say, I can’t let you work away having the wrong idea and believing every lie Jordan had told you,”
He couldn’t be serious, I have eyes, I saw those photos and video, if he was going to lie and say those were fake, I saw the hug with my eyes too and the said woman was currently downstairs in the same house, I didn’t even need Jordan to figure out what was going on.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“I know what you are trying to do, Kendrix, you don’t want to lose what you gain by having me with you and you want your woman close, I get it, don’t worry Kendrix, just because I am removing myself from this doesn’t mean I am going to tell my dad to stop supporting you, if that’s what you are worried about then you do not need to worry, because I am not a petty woman,”
I told him and meant it, I had no plans of talking my dad out of helping him, or being on his side, he could have all the support he wanted but not mine, I am never going to stay and settle for less.
“This has nothing to do with getting your dad’s support, Arielyn, you should know me better than this,”
Yeah, that’s what I thought, I thought I knew him, I thought I could trust him but turns out I was fooled into believing what wasn’t even there.
“That’s what I thought too, I thought I knew you but that’s not the case, I don’t want to continue talking about this, I just want to leave, I am done, you can continue with her, I am sure she won’t like sharing either,”
I told him.
“You are the one I want to be with Arielyn, I don’t know how to get that to you, if you think I want anyone else then you are wrong,”
I couldn’t help it, I had to laugh, he really thought I was stupid, really thought I was so hopelessly in love with him that I would believe any lie he told me.
“I don’t know man, but for someone who wants to be with me, you have a really crazy way of showing that, first you turned me into a liar when I told you we were mate, let’s say I was indeed wrong, let’s say I was blinded by the love I feel for you, let’s say you were right, the best way to prove that I am wrong was to bring another woman to the house the same day? The said woman is your lover, was your mate, might still be your mate and you want me to believe you?”
I asked him; I wanted to see him find a way to get out of it, I haven’t even mentioned how he chose to ignore that I know about what he really did in Dilgem.
“It’s not what you think it is, I don’t have any kind of relationship with Veronica anymore, yes, she used to be my mate but that was eight years ago, a lot of time has passed,”
“Yeah, and she magically came back to your life and you brought her back to the house within twenty-four hours of us fighting? Okay, explain the kiss and whatever other thing you did in Dilgem with her, let me guess, it is not what it seems?”
I asked, I reached for my phone and clicked on the video. Playing it made me feel sick, so I walked up to him and gave him the phone.
“I guess there is a logical explanation for this too, right? It is not what it seems right? The hug wasn’t what it seemed, right? I am mistaking, I am seeing things wrongly, then explain it all to me, or wait, I don’t want to hear it, I just want to leave,”
I said and went back to my luggage, I lifted both of them and started pushing them to the door, but he blocked the way.
“I know what it looks like, Arielyn but just give me a chance to explain,”
“Chance to explain? What are you going to explain? How her lips taste like? What you did after that?”
I fired at him, I didn’t want to think about what they did after because that would be me hitting myself in the face even more, I just wanted to leave.
“Nothing happened after, the kiss was a mistake and nothing happened after that, just listen to me, Arielyn, you are the one I want, the one I want to be with, please believe me,”
I knew he was trying to fool me, knew I shouldn’t listen to him but he sounded so sincere.
“Really? Do you want to be with me? Then why is she here? Why were you with her last night? Let’s say the video isn’t what it seems, what about now, Kendrix? What do I believe?”
I asked him, I really didn’t want to start crying again, I already felt my head splitting in two.
“She has a situation right now, but I can assure you that I am not with her, the hug was just me reassuring her, you don’t have to doubt that I would choose you, Arielyn, I choose you, you are the one I want, I**”
His phone rang, cutting off what else he was about to say, I watched as he brought his phone.
“Darling? What’s up?”
I couldn’t believe my ears, the same man who just said he wanted me was calling another woman darling right in front of my eyes.
“You are? Why didn’t you tell me? I am coming,”
He said and turned to leave, he forgot about me the minute his darling called yet he wanted me to believe I was the one he wanted, he was a pro at deceiving people, to think I was stupidly starting to believe his words, I didn’t say a word to him and just watched him leave.
“You, don’t go anywhere, I will be back and we will finish this discussion,”
He said and left, I stood there dumbfounded, did he really see me as some kind of clueless fool? He called another woman darling right after telling me that he wanted to be with me yet he still wanted me to wait for him like some loser who doesn’t know her worth, well, that’s not going to happen because as soon as he was out of the door, I carried my bags downstairs, I went back upstairs to make sure I wasn’t leaving anything behind because I didn’t want to have to come back for any of my stuff, after making sure I got everything, I closed the door and walk back downstairs, ready to leave before he comes back, I didn’t see his woman around anymore which means she was the one who called him, maybe because he was taking so long and she couldn’t wait for him anymore and the fucker left as soon as she called. It hurt how he threw me away the minute she called but I tried not to show it, I booked a ride, and thankfully, the driver was nearby.
“You are leaving?”
Raul asked when I met him downstairs, I realized I didn’t even tell him I was leaving. Even though I didn’t tell him what happened, he had been concerned about me, I should have told him, I felt bad that I didn’t even think about him, and if he hadn’t shown up, I might not have said goodbye to him.
“Yes, Raul, I can’t stay here anymore, I am sorry I didn’t tell you,”
I apologized.
“Are you leaving because of her?”
He asked. I shook my head.
“No, I already planned on moving out before I saw her, I don’t think I am welcome here anymore, I have to get my life back together, take care of yourself, okay? You can always call me at any time if you need anything, I won’t stop being friends with you just because I don’t live here anymore,”
I told him. He pouted.
“Can I come with you? I don’t like the person he brought and this house doesn’t feel right when you are not here, I especially don’t want to be in the same house as that person,”
Even Raul didn’t like her, maybe he didn’t know she was one of his kind.
“She is one of your kind, I think you can learn from her, maybe you guys can be friends too; you might get along better with her than you did with me because you guys have a lot of things in common,”
I suggested but he frowned and shook his head.
