Chapter 59
CALISTA RAYMONDS
It’s almost afternoon and Chase haven’t got back home. My class is over so I was just laying on the bed playing games with my phone.
But I was worried about Chase, he seems to be in a hurry earlier I’m the morning that he couldn’t even sit for breakfast.
And Tyrell was with him and so there’s no one I can ask about his whereabouts or else I have to call him,
Which I don’t want to.
I sigh and out my phone away then stared at the ceiling, I’m so bored sitting here along and doing nothing and having no one to chat with.
Getting down from me bed, I put on my foot wear and then walk out of my room.
Maybe I should watch some movies and I’ll feel a little better. Climbing down the stair, I stopped at the last stair when the front door opened.
I was expecting to see Chase standing there but I got disappointed when I see it was one of his guards there.
He seems to be coming in for something but when he sees me standing at the stair and looking at him, he stopped and bowed.
I’ve never seen any of Chase’s guard in the house and so I don’t understand why he’s in here and why he seems to act uneasy the moment he saw me.
“What do you want?” I asked him.
He stare at me with that unreadable expression and then he slowly bowed. “I thought I heard some noise, so I came to check in”
I look at him and nodded. “I’m fine, there was no noise.” I told him.
He bow and open the door then walk out. I stood at the stair and stare at him, Ofcourse he have not heard any sound.
He obviously came in for something but was caught off guard when he see me and the only lie he could think of is to tell me he hide a noise.
It’s not like I’m deaf or something. I went to sit down on the couch and turn the television on, but I can’t seem to concentrate.
It seems like that guard had come in for something but have to go back after seeing me because he thought I might be in my room or something.
I checked the time and it’s almost 12Pm. I can’t even concentrate on the movie going on, I missed Chase and I hate to admit it.
I heard a car sound outside and I smile knowing he’s back. I stood up and went to open the door but it was not Chase, it was Charlotte!.
Shutting back the door , I walk back to the couch and sat down. There’s no way I’m going to let her manipulate me again.
If Chase is her’s just like she said, then she shouldn’t be worked up knowing she can keep her man.
The door opened seconds later and Charlotte walk in. She stop and look at me but i ignore her presence and stare at the television though I’m not paying attention to the movie.
I heard her hiss and then she climbs upstairs. After I’m sure she’s upstair, I looked over and roll my eyes.
Well, I’m glad that Chase is not here… It could hurt more cause I know Chase is going to be nice to her.
Oh damn! I have to stop being like this.
I look away and pick up my phone but I heard footsteps coming from the stair and I look up to see Charlotte.
She approach me and stood in front of me… I arched my brows and stare back at her.
And Yes! I love the look on her face, she’s all red and boiling in anger.
“Where’s Chase?” She asked.
“How should I know? Since he’s your husband to be, why don’t you call him and find out yourself?” I snap at her and she tapped her feet on the floor angry and it only made me more happy.
“You!” She points at me.
“It seems you’ve forgotten your position! You’re just a slave here and you shouldn’t forget that. You’ve know right to talk to me like that” she yelled.
“Like what?” I smiled.
She look at me getting even more angry. I don’t understand what he issue with me is, if she loves Chase why don’t she go to Chase and not bother me?
“I know I’m a slave… But I’m not your slave, that makes a lot of difference right? What’s even your problem with me? Did you come to check to see if I died in the rain…?”
“Everything about you is my issue and let me make this clear, I hate you! You sinks! I hate every single sight of a low life bitch like you..” She yelled.
“Hold on… Don’t say that again, don’t call me a bitch again or you’ll regret it….” I smiled at her.
“You… Are you threatening me?” She screamed and I sigh.
She’s just a drama queen and can even make everyone believe she’s right.
“No , I’m not.” I told her.
“Listen here slave… Chase is my Man! No matter how much you try, he can never be yours” She glare at me.
I fold my hand beneath my breast and smile at her and I know Ofcourse my smile might have made her even more upset.
“Oh really? I’m sorry I didn’t know Chase is yours but I didn’t ask you about this either. Wait a minutes… Did Chase know you two are dating? Or you’re dating yourself?” I smiled.
She raised her hand and attempts to slap me but I held her hand floating on the air,
“Let go of me!” She yelled. I smiled and let go of her hand.
“Don’t dare…. Lay your filthy bitchy hand on me or else I’ll break it for you. I’m not always this kind but I’ll let you go this time.” I told her.
She glared at me and fum in anger, then suddenly she hold my hand and slapped herself then fall on the floor crying.
“Why are you hitting me! I didn’t do anything to you.. you’re just jealous that I’m not pretty than you!” She yelled crying.
I look at her in surprise, I didn’t hit her… She hit herself.. and then I turned my head to her eyes direction and I saw Chase standing there looking at us.
Oh! And that explains why she did that.
I take a step back as Chase walk to us, he stop Infront of me and I look at him then swallowed. He’s not going to believe this pathetic liar over me right?
“Why did you hit her! Are you this pathetic” Chase yelled at me and I panicked.
“What… What are you talking about? I didn’t hit her! She’s lying, she just hit herself” I explained.
“Are you also going to lie to my face? I just saw you raise your hand on her and you dare lie to me! I thought you were different!” He yelled even more and this forced tears to roll down my cheeks.
Ofcourse I could have known earlier that I stand no chance to his favour.
“Brother Chase… Please forgive her. I’m okay now, she’s just being jealous” Charlotte said in her thinnest voice standing up.
“You …” I stammered and look at Charlotte.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
She’s manipulative.
Chase look back at me. “If you ever lay a finger on her again….” He stopped and without completing his statement he walk over to Charlotte and help her stand up.
I stood frozen on my spot and watched Chase lead her upstairs and then Charlotte turned at me and gave me a mischievous smile.
It hurts so much that Chase believed her and yelled at me , but what was I expecting? Charlotte is his girlfriend.
Now , I can believe the fact that I stand no chance of winning Chases’s heart. Charlotte was right, They’re both dating.
I allowed myself to cry, I touched the necklace around my neck and without thinking, I removed it and held it in my hand.
I stared at it and it made me feel hurt even more, I thought the necklace indicates he have interest in me, I thought asking me to be his date means he likes me.
How wrong I am… He said earlier that he pay Sluts to pretend to be his girlfriend at the ball party.. how can I think there’s any difference here too?
He asked me to be his date because I was his last option.
I look at the necklace again and dry my tears, I dropped the necklace on the table and walk away … I walk into my room and shut the door behind in tears.
