Gamble
“How can I let her stay happy when I am not? And by the way, how do you know my car broke down?” I turned my face, pinning my gaze on him.
“I just know it,” He shrugs.
When I heard nothing, I said more. “So it was you who did this?” I concluded.
Hey, hold on. I did nothing. It was Nora. It was his and Sam’s plan. Don’t blame it on me.” He surrenders his hands in the air.
“That son of heaven. Tomorrow, he has to go through my wrath.” I said this while gritting my teeth.
“Relax man. You know it wasn’t his fault. The more we delay, the more problems will arise.” He took a deep breath, saying this.
“At least finally, you got a good fuck. Let’s not forget that fact.” He giggled like a kid, and I rolled my eyes.
“By the way, how many times have you guys fucked? Oh, let me think 100 times.” He started laughing at his lame joke.
“And see, you succeeded too.” Asshole looked at me and winked while I was controlling the rage rising in me.
“By the way, tell me, is she good on…” Dare you to utter a word, and I will make sure people will see you dead in the news tomorrow.” I stopped him before he uttered more sh*t than he already had.
That idiot started laughing like a maniac upon hearing me.
Yup, now it’s confirmed that he is manic.
“What happened? You said you don’t care about her.” He mocked.
“I don’t, but let’s not forget she is my wife, and I won’t let anyone disrespect her. Only I can do everything with her. Whether it’s love or hate,” I deadpanned.
“Do you know how I felt looking at her all happy there? I am sure she has not thought about me. Not even once.” I snort.
“Buddy, she does not know what is going on. Give her some time.” I felt him turn his body next to me while he spoke.
“Oh, shut the fuck up. Do you know how it feels when someone doesn’t trust you?” I spoke while opening my eyes and looking at the bright, shining sky.
“Who knows better than me?” He snorted, and I instantly felt bad for him thinking about Alvera.
Sorry, man, I did not want to rub salt on your wounds.” I expressed my intention.
He hmm’d in reply.
We were both looking up, thinking about things that were piercing our hearts the most.
Flashback
I was in the middle of the meeting when I got a call from Nora saying Sarah was missing.
The news of her being missing has shaken my world. I ran outside and reached the house while ordering my man to search for her.
I informed Sam and Eric of the same on my way back home.
We have been friends since childhood.
Sam is Eric’s sister. She was always wild among us. She loved adventure. She was a little plump back then, but she was the troublemaker. I and Eric were always protective of her. She was way younger than us, but she was the apple of our eyes. She was chirpy and tomboyish. She loved to hang out with us, whether we liked it or not. She always had a way to convince us. To control her energy, Eric’s father pushed her to learn physical exercise.
Sam started learning all forms of martial arts. You say it; she knows it.
When Sarah left for Australia, I was worried about her security all the time. Though I have made my arrangements, I still wanted someone to be there with her 24/7.
I was trying to sort this issue out when one day she visited our office while I and Eric were talking to Nora about the plan we had for her security.
She was listening to us calmly while we finished our meeting.
When everything looked perfect, I still wasn’t sure of it.
“If you want, I can be there for security. But mind it, I won’t work for free.” She shrugs her shoulders while chewing gum.
Her one statement put my heart at ease at that instant.
Getting up from my chair, I ran to her and hugged her while she was still sitting on the chair. “Thank you so much, Sam,” I said.
“You are choking me, fat man. Leave me.” He pushes me, and while I chuckle,
“We need a plan. Because, as far as I know, she doesn’t make friends.”
“Tell me something about her,” Sam said.
I told her how her life has been and what kind of person she is, as I have observed in the last eleven months. I told her what she does, where she is right now, and what she is doing. Everything minor that I have observed in these months
“Don’t worry, I’ve got your back, buddy. Just admit me to the same college, and the rest I will manage. But mind it, I won’t be doing this for free, so you better pay me a good amount to keep your wife safe.” She smirks, and I know she is way cleverer than her age, so I agree to it and admit that she is at the same college as Sarah was.
The day she left, I was shattered to the core.
I wonder where I lack in showing her my love.
Nora’s missing word had made a hole in my heart.
I ran to the house like a cave dweller. When I reached complete security, I was working on the system.
“Did you find anything?” I asked while I got out of my car.
“Sir Mam left with Mr. More. He showed me the CCTV footage.
“But where did she go?” Did you call her? Wait, let me call.” I started calling like a madman, but the number was not reachable.
I called Nathan, but his number was not reachable either.
“A sudden panic rushed through in vain. I hope she is fine.” I started walking here and there but wasn’t getting any reply.
“Show me everything that she did today. What she did, where she went, everything.” I said this while calling again and again. Though the answer was the same, the number was not reachable.
The team started working on it, and I was getting restless as every second passed.
“Sir here.” He said he turned the laptop towards me, and I saw what she did.
My eyes were on the screen, but my heart sank when I saw she was standing in front of my cabin.
I saw those tears in her eyes while she was leaving my building.
But why is she crying?
Did something happen to her?
She is not feeling well.
Why did her feet stop at the same place when she was about to enter the cabin?
“Sir, we have found this in your room.” Some security guards came and gave me two papers.
Dear Mr. Hudson:
So again, I would like to thank you for everything.
Well, honestly, staying in your house was a wonderful vacation.
But I am bored already.
I don’t need the filthy money of my filthy father, so please make a slight gesture of gratitude for your precious time.
But honestly, one man can’t satisfy me for a longer period of time. I like new spices every time.
I have left a small gift for you. I hope you like it.
From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other.
Now you live your life happily, and let me live mine the way I like to.
Take care, Sean.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Sarah
I felt shattered.
I felt broken.
And I felt foolish. Rage rushed back into me as I read this letter. When I saw those filthy documents.
One was the property document. I started laughing and looking at them, and then I checked the other document.
Divorce paper
My gift.
Wow, so she gave me a divorce while ignoring all the love I have for her? After I told her my feelings, she still walked out as if nothing had happened.
I guess her father was right. She is a selfish bitch. But I never believed him, and I guess that is true.
Flashback End
I want to make her feel what she made me feel.
I want to hurt her the way she has hurt me.
I want her to feel the pain I have been through because of her stupidity.
But again, I don’t want to. I can’t help this stupid heart of mine.
Today, she has become the mother of my child.
My child
It is one of my biggest gambles.
I know she will never forgive me, even if she finds out what I have done.
But right now, I don’t care about anything. I know what is wrong and what is right.
I just know what is important.
This child has to come into this world, whether she likes it or not.
