ENTRY 4.4 *** Eliza was about to climb into her bed when she received a sudden call from Drake. And her heart thumped fast when it was all about Adam again. “Where are you going, Eliza?” it was her mother. “Ma, Adam is in trouble,” she replied as she changed her pajama and wore her leather jacket. “Why do you need to go where he is? Isn’t Drake being with him always when he’s in trouble?” Eliza heaved a deep sigh. “You knew, Ma, that his father asked me a favor too—” “But he’s old enough to defend himself, and he’s old enough to know what’s right or wrong,” her mother asserted. Eliza went closer to her mother, held her in her arm, and let out a smile. “Ma, just let me—” “You don’t have to—” “Ma, please,” she uttered and met her mom’s eyes. The old lady heaved a deep sigh and nodded. “Take care.” Eliza smiled and nodded, and she was about to take a step when her mother spoke. “Do you want me to tell the driver to—” “It’s okay, Ma,” she shook her head, “—I’ll take a cab., and Adam’s bar is not that far from here,” she added. The old lady sighed and nodded. Eliza then rushed outside and took a cab towards the HI-END bar. The bouncer just nodded at her when they saw her at the entrance and opened the door for her. Adam took her already into his bar, and his employees already knew her. She was just a few meters away when she heard the screams of women. She shook her head. What does she expect? Adam will invite women again, and she doesn’t want to entertain the thoughts that are running inside her. She had enough of Adam’s happy sex life. She took a few more steps, and Drake caught her eyes. Drake rushed towards her. “Eliza… I’m sorry for disturbing you, but Adam doesn’t want us to stop—”
“It’s okay. I’m here to get that whore,” she replied as she cut the hum into Drake’s words. Wearing her dark and cold eyes, he approaches Adam’s side and pulls him on his collar. Adam was about to throw a punch at the person who pulled him away when he saw Eliza. Eliza arched her brow and glanced into his fist. Drake came over and helped the man and guided him toward his companions. “Better leave this place,” he said to them, and they nodded as they took Adam’s instant human punching bag. There’s a tint of madness in Eliza’s eyes when she forces Adam to face her direction. A slap landed on Adam’s cheek. “Do you really want to be locked behind bars?” she asked. Her voice roared inside, and she didn’t care if they were catching everyone’s attention. Adam clenched his jaw as he glared at her. “It’s none of your—” he didn’t finish his words when Eliza’s palm landed on his cheek again, making his head turn to the right. Gasped and roared inside the bar. Then suddenly, Adam’s fling earlier rushed towards Eliza. She pushes Eliza making her fall on the cold floor. Eliza winced when she felt a pang of pain on her bum. “How dare you!” the woman exclaimed. Eliza didn’t look up and closed her eyes before he opened them and tried to stand up. Drake rushed towards her and helped her. “Are you all right?” Drake asked. Eliza nodded. The woman was about to grab Eliza’s hair when Adam dragged her on the arm, and with his strength, the woman fell to the floor. “Adam?!” the woman exclaimed in surprise. “Stay out of this,” Adam uttered, wearing his chilly voice. He walked towards Eliza and was about to speak a word when Eliza cut him off. “Let’s talk,” she uttered and started to walk her way toward the second floor. Eliza knew that Adam had a room upstairs. Adam usually sleeps in there when he doesn’t feel like going home. And of course, it is where he brought his whores and fuck them to hell!
Eliza climbed upstairs with heavy steps as anger lingered on her. Maybe this will be the sign that she will let go of him—she had enough. And with it, maybe Adam will change. Would he? When they were on the second floor, she walked towards the brown door and twisted its knob then pushed it open. She stepped inside and walked towards the bed, and sat. She glanced at Adam. “Lock the door, get a chair, and sit in front of me,” she demanded, and Adam followed her just like a humble kid. Eliza wanted to burst into laughter, but she held herself. If someone witnesses Adam’s behavior if he’s with Eliza, they will not slip this chance to cover it. “What did I tell you, huh, Adam?” she asked. Adam just met her gaze and didn’t reply. “This will be the last time that you will see me meddling with your business. I will pass a resignation letter first thing tomorrow and should sign it!” she uttered. Hearing this, Adam’s gaze on her pierced in anger. “I will not… sign it,” he replied, giving stress to his words. Eliza let out a soft chuckle. “Try me, Adam. Try me.” Adam squinted his eyes and frowned. “Do you really want to leave me?” he asked, his voice becoming gloomy. However, Eliza won’t be surprised because of it. Adam uses that voice every time he wants to have her sympathy and won’t leave him. But as she said, she had enough. “Yes. Because no matter how I told you to stop engaging yourself in fights, still, you didn’t hear—” “Make love to me, and I promise, I will let you go—I will stop pursuing you,” Adam interrupted, which shocked Eliza’s body so as her mind.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
