Chapter 251 – I Was Once In Love With A Cheater
“What did you say?” I asked, hearing my heart beat louder than ever. The slip of the tongue, I believe, landed him in an awkward situation. But I would call it a big red flag.
“You as— what did you two talk about?” He shook his head and then forced a smile across his lips when he realized he should have first asked me to elaborate.
“Ab—,” I paused, watching his expression as his words played through my mind. I could be honest with him and give him a chance to tell me the truth, but then again, I didn’t want to give him a chance to lie to me.

“About your relationship with her,” I lied, playing along. He closed his eyes to let out a sigh and then clenched his jaw. He wasn’t happy that I found out.
“There is no relationship anymore,” he said, and that was enough to stop my heart from beating for a second. My whole life flashed before my eyes as I saw my fantasy world crumble before my eyes.
“When did you break up with her?” I kept playing along, recalling every time I saw Maura crying. Was it because of him? It has to be. But why did he hide his relationship from me?
“I didn’t yet, but I cut contact with her,” he said awkwardly, probably thinking I’d be too grateful for it.
“Then why were you talking to her last night?” I asked with much difficulty. It was clear where he went last night, and from the bit of conversation I heard, it didn’t seem like he had broken up with her or cut ties with her.
“I— she called and wanted me to come—over,” at least he was trying to be honest at last.
“And you went there.” I closed my lips and smiled at my misery. When did I become such an idiot as to not even question anything? Everybody was literally giving me hints they had seen him with someone, yet I ignored it all and acted like a fool.
“No!” He shook his head, but I could tell he was lying. The way he stole his eyes from me was just pure evidence of it.“Zane! Don’t f*uc*king lie to me!” I yelled after I couldn’t take it anymore. He raised his hands to calm me down, but I was not going to let him lie to me anymore.
“I— It is over now, okay? I’ll call her and tell her we are over,” he said, taking little steps closer to me, but I kept walking away from him.
“So you—what happened between you two?” It took me a minute to ask him that. The way he tried shaking his head, but my eyes and tear-filled glare made him lower his head, caused me goosebumps.
“After getting turned on by me, you went to finish it with her?” I asked with a loud gasp. My heart could not take it anymore. I f*uc*king trusted and loved him. After Helel’s demise, he was the only one who brought light to my life, but only to break me again.
“Listen, it wasn’t that intense,” he instantly knew things were going downhill now, so he reached out for my hand, but his touch felt like an iron rod burning my hand.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“But it happened.” I placed a hand on my heart as I felt this stinging pain that I couldn’t explain.
“Beatrice! It was nothing. I can break things off with her right now.” He smiled hysterically, holding me by my arms even when I wanted him to get away from me.
“Why now? Why not before? You were never going to break things off with any of us. You would have continued living your kink of doing both friends until you got caught,” I screamed, scratching his hands to free myself from his grasp.
“No! I wa—s — thankful of her for —,” he was once again going to make up excuse when I pushed him away with full force, however, I couldn’t budge him.
“Fine, I made a mistake. I didn’t know you would get that angry. I am sorry!” He raised his hands in surrender, saying, “But now I am here and I am telling you, it is only you in my heart.” He then once again reached out for my hand.
“I wouldn’t get angry. Why? Say it,” I demanded, holding back the urge to scratch his face. The sight of his lips made me think of how and where he must have kissed her. I cringed and hugged myself, shuddering in fright.
“It is not about you and the brothers. I never judged you for that. It was just that — you are not the one I cheated on. She was the first, and I cheated on her with you because you were irresistible.” He raised his voice and then stared at my face when I stopped moving.I looked at his face in amazement. Did he think that was something he would say and that I would appreciate it? I was stunned.
“Does she know?” I asked, not even crying anymore.
“She has an idea, but she knows if she questions me, I will leave her. Everybody knows you are always going to be my first priority,” he said, smiling at me like a fool.
“You scared her of the possible rejection and that gave you enough freedom to f*uc*k around? You don’t even f*uc*king deserve any of us.” I yelled, unable to express my frustration.
“Do you even realize how wrong you are? You made me f*uc*king betray my friend? The only person who was nice to me when I had no one to talk to?” I covered my mouth with my hands as guilt struck me.
All this time, I can’t even imagine how she must have felt when she hugged me to calm me down. She was knowingly taking care of her beloved’s sidechick.
“Beatrice! Look! I love you.” He held my hand, but I pulled away.
“It’s over!” As those words escaped my lips, his eyes grew in size.
