Unpredictable Betrayal : A Sweet of Revenge

“Geez, seriously! Turns out you’ve been lying to me all this time.”

In one of the cafes, Regina grumbled angrily. She didn’t care if there were some customers who were watching her that afternoon.

After previously avoiding, even seemingly intentionally not wanting to respond, only today did Regina manage to meet Nicole. And even that, their meeting happened as if by accident.

Initially, Regina wanted to have lunch. Because God was being kind, she was brought together with her friend in the same place.

“Gina, can you speak softly, please? It’s embarrassing to be stared at by so many people!”

Nicole glanced around. From the corner of her eye, she realized that other cafe patrons were watching because of the commotion Regina had caused.

“Let them! Let everyone hear and know.”

Nicole sighed in annoyance. She pulled Regina, who was standing, to sit in the available chair next to her. However, she was embarrassed to be the center of attention of so many people.

“Come here, sit. Speak properly. No need to shout. I’m not deaf,” Nicole said, irritated with herself.

Regina looked displeased. Taking advantage of the moment, she used the opportunity to bombard and clarify everything that had happened so far. Regina was upset because she just realized that she was one of the victims of Nicole’s lies.

“How could you lie to me like this? Is this what friends do?”

“What lie? I don’t feel like I’ve lied to you!” Nicole retorted. How could she be accused like this right off the bat?

“Don’t you feel it? You lied to me about Aurora. You said she was a disrespectful cousin. A cousin who deliberately stole your husband until you got divorced, and I believed it? Oh, God!”

Regina was really upset. All this time, as a friend, she empathized and felt sorry for Nicole, who had just gotten married, only to be divorced within hours.

Regina was swayed, she just believed that Nicole divorced because of Aurora; the cousin who allegedly destroyed Nicole’s marriage.

Even when she was told that Aurora, who was supposedly the destroyer of Nicole’s marriage, actually worked in the same place as her, Regina was willing to be asked to interfere and even ruin the relationship the woman was building. Especially when she found out that the man who was getting close to Aurora was someone she had liked for a long time.

Continuing to be swayed and provoked, Regina acted excessively. As a result of her actions, she had to deal with Asher, who was the head of the hospital.

“I thought I was standing up for you, Nicole,” Regina said angrily. “Imagine, I stood up for you. I even willingly helped you make that seductive woman suffer and regret her actions. But, what’s the reality? It’s not Aurora who’s been evil all this time. But, you’re the seducer yourself! You’re the one who seduced her husband until you both cheated and betrayed!”

Regina’s voice rose again. She let out all her frustration without holding back. Anyway, Regina had to resolve this issue with Nicole once and for all.

“I really considered you a friend. But, it turns out you were just using me? How rude!!!”

Nicole took a deep breath while watching and listening to Regina’s rant. Once she was convinced that the woman had finished venting her anger, she responded in turn.

“I admit I was wrong.”

“Not wrong, but you’ve sinned!” Regina added. “You’ve been playing the victim.”

“Okay… okay,” Nicole responded again. She had resigned herself to being called all sorts of things by her friend. “You’re free to call me whatever you want. I won’t deny it. I admit it, it wasn’t Aurora but me who seduced and stole her husband. I even intentionally provoked and sought your support because I was truly angry about everything she had done to me.”

“Insane! You’ve really crossed the line, Nicole.”

“Just so you know, there’s a reason behind all of that. Just imagine, since childhood, Aurora could get anything she wanted. Her life was easy!”

Nicole seemed passionate. It was her turn to let out everything that had been stored in her heart.

“A lot of guys were competing to be her partner. And me? No one even glanced at me because I had nothing. I don’t understand why God isn’t fair like this. That’s why I tried to change. I deliberately got a job and seduced her husband. Besides, at that time Mas Alex’s mother gave her blessing and I really liked him at that time.”

“So, just because you were jealous, you ruined her marriage? Where’s your brain? Did she want to be rich from birth?”

Regina shook her head in disbelief at the crazy thoughts Nicole had expressed. How foolish she was to be swayed and believe in the lies her friend had told her.

“Yet, I wanted to help because I sympathized and felt sorry for the baby in your womb. Turns out, you were wrong from the beginning. Mentally ill! I regret following all your words.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m sorry. Initially, I didn’t intend to involve you this much.”

Nicole sighed. Judging from Regina’s demeanor, she believed the woman wouldn’t forgive her actions.

“But, what’s the reality? You made me a tool to fuel your crazy obsession, right? I was stupid to believe it!”

“I’m really sorry for what I did to you, Gina.” Nicole’s voice weakened. “I sincerely apologize to you.”

Regina shook her head. She had no interest in forgiving Nicole, who had pushed her into the abyss. If not warned by Asher, she might have truly sunk and eventually been destroyed without a trace.

“You better apologize to Aurora. You’ve caused her too much harm. That’s if she’s willing to forgive your outrageous behavior. And as for our friendship, I think it’s best to end it here. I’m not interested in being friends with toxic people like you! So, there’s no need to come or contact me again.”

“But, Gina, we can—”

“No. Let’s just leave it at that.”

Regina got up. She left Nicole without even wanting to look back, let alone bother to listen to the woman’s explanation. She was determined that from now on, she would never have any relationship with Nicole, or if necessary, she would not consider Nicole as her friend.
