Chapter 78: It’s Karma
She stood transfixed at the man waiting for her. How on earth did he know where she lived or that she was coming there?
She frowned. In this life, this bastard is the one she detest the most. She cannot think of having an enemy besides Ethan Rumero.
“What the hell are you doing here?” Arianna bellowed, walking towards him and frowning in irritation.
“Waiting for you. I’ve been waiting for you for weeks now. I’m glad you came around today” Ethan replied calmly.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Arianna eyed him in hostility. Waiting for her, who the hell? “Do I owe you anything? Why are you waiting for me?” She demanded hostility.
“On the contrary, I am the one owing you. I owe you a lot and I have come to see you based on that” Ethan replied. Seeing that Arianna didn’t respond, he said in a solemn voice “Please spare me a hour, please Arianna” he pleaded.
“Well, I don’t have time to spare. You get the fuck out of my way” Arianna thundered. She cannot afford to waste time with this fellow.
“Please, Arianna. Just this once and I will never bother you again” Ethan pleaded and Arianna glared furiously for a while before unlocking the door and letting him in.
She shut the door behind her and Jace’s bodyguard gave the latest update.
Daisy looked at her watch, it’s five minutes to lunch over. Ethan did not come. He was deliberate. He just didn’t want to come. He fooled her when he said she should remind him.
Once it’s five minutes, she will leave the restaurant. She isn’t going to wait another minute again.
“How have you been, Arianna?” Ethan asked, sitting on the cheap sofa and looking at the poor setting of the room. Arianna indeed hasn’t been alright all these years.
Her sitting room had spelled it all out for him to see. Asking her how she had been means how has life treated her for almost five years since they parted?
How had she coped? Where does she live and how has she been surviving all this difficult time they live in?
“I’m not interested in silly questions. Your one hour is counting for the past five minutes. So go straight to your reason for coming” Arianna snapped at her.
What the heck is he’s business how she had been? If she hadn’t been fine, what can he do about it?
“Alright,” Ethan said and sighed. He robbed his palm together and was thinking how to begin. “I want to apologise to you for what I did to you a few years ago..” Ethan trailed off.
He feels ashamed to mention what that thing was that he did to her. He looked away, too guilty to say it.
“Which of the two” Arianna asked and watched his guilty countenance before continuing “that you fucked my friend, my supposed bestie and my supposed chief bridesmaid on my wedding?
Or that you said I was cheating on you with my lover and you caught me doing so before the wedding hence you decided to tie the knot with my friend?
You cheated, betrayed me and murder my personality and self esteem. Tell me, which of them are you apologising for?” Arianna asked.
Ethan’s ears turned reddish. He swallowed hard and looked at the floor. She also knew about what he said on the day of his wedding to Daisy? It would have been the both of them but he took Daisy to the altar instead.
He must have been stupid to think she wasn’t going to know about it. How can he not know when Genesis was there and she’s her friend. Oh gosh! His guilt heart was two times heavier with the weight of guilt than it was when he walked through the door to sit down.
“Both and everything. I’m sorry Arianna, I’m really sorry” Ethan apologised. Not only his ears had gone reddened, his eyes were red as well.
Arianna just glared at him. She doesn’t have the time to banter words of betrayal with this fellow. She’s too busy with something else that holding a grudge against Ethan and his wife doesn’t seem to be worth it.
“On behalf of your friend Daisy, I apologise. Please forgive her too. We both hurt you in every way. Please forgive us. My wife and I really regretted our actions” Ethan pleaded, his hands clasped together.
Arianna sneered. She looked at her wristwatch and wanted to say she’s forgiven them when Ethan said “Daisy was pregnant once. But she had the baby preterm. We lost her.
Since then, we haven’t been able to have another child. We’ve tried different ways but it all ends in futility. Each time she doesn’t miss her period, my guilty heart tells me it’s karma.
Please forgive us both. And I wish that you find a man who will truly love you like you deserve it. Someone better and loving than I. Someone who will make you happy forever.
You don’t deserve an asshole like me, Arianna. You are a sweet kind hearted person. And you deserve someone better to love you. I made you lose faith in love.
That person who will love you will make you have faith in love again. You will be loved by him and he will treat you with Pureness and truthful love. He would be glad that you didn’t end up with an idiot like me…”Ethan was saying.
Daisy had left the restaurant and was heading to her Mama’s place. She needed a shoulder to lean on. Someone to wipe her tears off when she passed on the street where Arianna’s apartment was.
She sighted Ethan’s car and paused. She reversed and looked at the plate number, it’s Ethan’s car. What is he doing in such a place?
She stepped out and went to the car. It was locked and whined up. It only means that Ethan was somewhere around. What is he doing there?
She returned to her car and dialled his cell phone number again and like before, he didn’t answer.
She decided to find a good place to park and waited. Whatever Ethan was doing that made him not answer her calls, she would know.
But she hopes he’s not with a woman. If she gets to know that Ethan was seeing another woman, she would kill the woman and damn the consequences.
No woman can share her husband with her. He belonged to her and her alone. His dick cannot only be swimming in her pussy and not sharing it between two women.
She waited. It appeared long but eventually, she saw him walk out of an apartment towards his car, but the woman he came out with left her in shock!
