Chapter 24
I woke up hoping that it was all a nightmare ,” Good morning, baby.” I saw his sparkling white teeth flash me a smile.
“Morning..” I replied slowly.
“How was your night?.”
“Good, I guess, I couldn’t stop thinking about the big issue we have.” I confessed.
He sighed, ” I told you, you shouldn’t worry, leave it to me and everything will be okay.”
I passed him a faint smile, my phone pinged and I checked to see a message from Louisa.
” I’m coming right away, I have something to share with the family.”
The feeling of worry overwhelmed me, was everything fine with her?.
” Babe, is everything alright?.” Alex brought me out of my thoughts.
I shook my head, ” Ummm… I don’t know.. my sister is coming and I think she has something to tell us.” and everything will go back to the way it was before, just me and Alex waiting for our baby to be born with no crazy ex lurking around but you know what they say, if wishes were horses, beggars will ride on them.
~EVA~
“Good job, Alex, you have been a good boy, I will reward you later.” She ended the call with a creepy smile on her face.
I read and watched the news and discovered that Alex denied my sister on National TV. I wasn’t surprised, it was obviously Skyler who forced him into it. After all, she can do anything because of love.
Psychopath.
I was only concerned about my sister, how would she handle the news, she would be in massive shock.
I immediately sent a text to my brother to make sure he was by her side before she would make any silly decision.
” What are you doing?.” Skyler inquisitively asked me.
“Texting someone.” I answered casually.
One thing about Skyler, she’s very smart, she can read body language, another thing you shouldn’t do in front of her is to be afraid or stutter.
Even if you are doing something bad, play it off like it’s nothing or else she will suspect.
” Why is that smile on your face? What have you done this time?.” I inquired as if I was unaware.
“Well, I just did something that’s gonna make me get my man back.” She smirked.
“I’m lost.” I squinted my eyes and raised my brow in confusion.
She rolled her eyes, ” Eva, you really need to keep yourself updated.”
“Anyways, I’m going to tell you regardless, I blackmailed Alex into ending things with that man thief.” She spat out in disgust.
” What kind of blackmail?.”
” Few years ago, he went to a party, got drunk and raped a girl, she was unconscious for awhile and he thought she was dead because his vision was blurry, he begged me to cover the traces and I promised to take care of her if she decided to work with me, she’s alive and he doesn’t know it.”
“Geez, you are so evil and I like it, I’m very sure she must have had a miscarriage when she heard the news.”
” I hope she does because I just want her to die before I do it myself.”
I was mentally stabbing her with a knife.
I know she rightfully deserves Alex and all but he doesn’t love her anymore, she should move on and stop being a psychopathic ex.
” I need to see her, I have a few things to discuss with her, you are coming with me.” She stood up and left.
Her words brought a sly smile to my face, awwn, poor Skyler, she thinks obviously going to choose her over my family.
LOL.
You know the saying, keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer, yeah, I’m just as evil as her but I’m doing it for a good course.
She’s definitely going to see me as a bad best friend and betrayal, bla bla but I don’t care.
It’s high time I ended things with this bitch besides family first.
Always.
We got into her car and drove off to the girl’s apartment.
Her apartment was being guided by Skyler’s Henchmen.
A blondie with blue eyes came into display, Alex must have thought she was Barbie so that’s why he fucked her.
The look of fear was in her eyes when she saw us.
Skyler had a private conversation with her that I didn’t bother to eavesdrop on because I was already two steps ahead of her.
She wasn’t going to be around for a whole week, that means I will be left in charge of her evil deeds.
I secretly took a picture of her and sent it to Petra. I kept my phone on Do not disturb mode.
Skyler turned back and I put on my blank face, if it was an amateur, they would have smiled at her, she would immediately figure out that you are onto something.
” Let’s go.” She told me and I stood up to follow her.
I planned to come back to talk to her in private when Skyler was gone.
” Hey, can you watch her while I’m away? Alex shouldn’t find out, he must be trying to figure out how to get out of this mess but I won’t let him, I will guilt trap him and then kick that bitch of the house or even worse, eliminate her permanently.”
Her words sent chills to my body.
Wow, love can make people do the craziest things.
I’m not sure, it’s love, it’s obsession!.
“Yeah, she has been an obstacle for long, you should do something about it.” I commented.
“We will definitely do something about it.”
We drove back to her house and she packed her stuff and left.
I kept a tracking device on her to monitor and make sure she was out of the city.
When she was finally out, I got into my car and sent a text to my sister. Skyler was dangerous, maybe there might be a secret camera in my car so I didn’t want to make a call in my car to avoid messing up the plan.
I drove back to Emily’s apartment.
The guards didn’t say a word because they have known me for long.
” Hi.”
“Oh, hello….” She squinted her eyes at me.
“I’m Eva, I was here a few minutes ago with Skyler.”
” Oh, welcome… you are here because?.”
” I’m here because I need a favour from you.”
“Okay, I’m listening, I’m willing to help anybody that’s a friend of Skyler, I owe her.”
” Actually, she owes you.”
” I don’t understand.” She scrunched her brows in confusion.
“Don’t worry, I will explain.”
” Skyler didn’t save your life.”
” What are you talking about?, She did.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“You were raped by a guy, not just any guy.”
” Alex Montero.” We called simultaneously but her voice held hatred.
” He ruined my life, if not for Skyler, I don’t know what would have happened to me.”
” He didn’t, she drugged him , it was a set up, Alex is Skyler’s ex and she has been obsessed with him for long, she’s angry over the fact that he left her for my sister.”
The feeling of shock enveloped her.
“Your sister?.”
” Yes, my sister is pregnant with his child, she was once his personal assistant but they had a thing that led to another thing, now Skyler is unto them by using you.”
” What?.”
” Alex doesn’t know that you are alive, if he knew, he would do every possible thing on this Earth to show you how sorry he is, he wasn’t in his right state.”
” I know, he reeked of alcohol that night, after he raped me, she took me in.”
” I didn’t have a family, I didn’t want to go back to my boyfriend because he would definitely kick me, he didn’t want me to go to the party in the first place.”
” It was all Skyler’s plan and you have been her bait for long, he’s been blackmailed, he thinks you are dead, if you can just show up with me , everything will be fine, Alex is way richer than Skyler, he will take care of you.” I promised her.
” Okay but why are you doing this? Isn’t Skyler your best friend?.”
” She was, she was.”
” She killed my boyfriend, the only guy who actually loved me, he didn’t deserve to die, I will never forgive her for what she did, she pretended and lied about the murder but it was pretty obvious she was the one.”
” I’m so sorry.”
” Don’t be, it’s not your fault.” I smiled at her.
” So can you come with me to his house?.”
“Yeah, sure but I’m not sure I’m supposed to leave the house.”
“Don’t worry, Skyler is out of town and we will be back before you know it.”
We left and the guards didn’t bother to ask a word, my car glass was tinted and she was disguised as well.
I hesitated before getting out of the car, alot of truths will be revealed today including the fact that Eva is Louisa, Louisa is Eva and She’s the bestfriend of Skyler.
Skyler has always been the enemy, her heart is cold as ice, even a robot is better than her because I know it’s numbness, she decides to deactivate her emotions, I know she still has a spot for emotion because she’s driven by revenge caused by betrayal.
After all, her boyfriend or ex fiance cheated on her with his PA, she should let go but she’s obviously not doing that anytime soon.
Well, if I was in her shoes, I wouldn’t want to let go, getting hurt deeply by someone you love can turn you into a beast.
Her actions were justifiable but she’s taking it too far especially when my sister is involved.
I wouldn’t let her hurt someone I love especially after the last incident.
