Chapter 2

“Alex, I swear, it's all Elizabeth's plan” Emma accused, the moment the whole scene played in her head again. She pointed her index finger at Elizabeth,

“She did this. She called me and told me to come into this room, I swear!” She cried. But it looked like Alex wasn't hearing a thing she was saying. With his eyes staring at the wall behind her, he said,

“We should end this here and now”

Emma swallowed as she forced herself from the bed,

“Al… Alex, listen…” Her hand held the duvet to her chest tightly as she made her way to where Alex stood. She was close when Elizabeth stepped in between them.

“You don't seem to understand what he said. Let me explain it in two simple words. It's over!”

Emma shook her head as she fell to her knees, denying what she heard. She doesn't want to believe it, she cannot believe that her relationship of five years was ending today. And to think it was ending for something she didn't do.

“Alex, please listen to me. There is an explanation for this” She tried to persuade the man, but he asked with an angry roar,

“Will your explanation change the fact that you slept with someone? You refuse to give yourself to me, but you could give it to someone else? Did you even love me at all?” Alex asked and Emma fell on her face.

“I do. I do, Alex, please” she cried. She didn't mind that she was bowing to Elizabeth, even though that wasn't what she wanted to do. All she wanted was to beg Alex to forgive her.

“I didn't know someone was in the room. The door was locked from outside and the man seemed to be drunk” she continued to explain as she cried. Her head is still on the floor. It was the loud bang of the door that made her raise her head.

“Alex?” She called when she saw the room empty. They had left, and she rushed out of the room with the duvet around her chest as she continued to scream,

“Alex!” But the man had long left.

“Alex!” She screamed some more as she fell to the ground as she wept.

Anyone who passed by only looked at her and shook their heads. Emma didn't care, all she wanted was her boyfriend back, she didn't know what she would do without him.

Alex was her life, her love, her everything. He was the first man she had ever dated all her life, and the relationship was already five years. They had gone to the museum for their fifth year anniversary and now, it all ended.

She didn't know when she burst into tears again, even after taking a shower in the bathroom and was already dressing up. She cannot take it, she would have to go and pay Alex a visit.

Maybe if she explained what happened, Alex would be calm and understand her. If she explained that everything was plotted by Elizabeth then maybe, he would take her back.

On the bed was the bundle of money, she picked it up angrily, ready to destroy it when her phone began to ring. When Emma saw who the caller was, her heart began to beat extremely fast.

She answered the call,

“Daddy?”

“I give you fifteen minutes to get home, pack up all your things, and get out of my house. Fifteen minutes!”

“Daddy, I swear, I didn't—”

“You are a disgrace! A shameless child. I can not have a child as shameless as you! Come and get your things out of my house!” he hung up.

Tears rolled down Emma's eyes. She knew Elizabeth had gone to tell her father something different from what exactly happened.

When she rushed home, the first thing that welcomed her was a dirty slap from her father. She didn't mind it, she fell on her knees and cried, begged, and pleaded, but her father asked her to get the hell out of his family.

As Emma was kicked out of the compound, there was only one place left that she could go if not her father's house, and that was Alexa's house. Maybe if she begged him, he would accept her.

Emma made her way to Alex's house. It was already evening, and she had not had anything to eat for the day. She was exhausted, angry, and in pain. When she got to Alex's house, it was locked, since she had her own keys, she didn't bother to knock on the door, she opened it with her own keys.

Getting into the house, her eyes caught sight of female clothes on the ground. She slowly made her way to the room where she could hear the moans coming from.

'It wasn't even up to a day they broke up, and Alex was already having sex with another woman?' She thought.

It was when she opened the door to see who it was that her heart shattered to pieces. Tears didn't stop rolling down her cheeks as she saw her sister and her boyfriend in the same bed.

“Alex!” She screamed so loudly due to the shock. Her wide eyes looked from Alex to Elizabeth and back to Alex. Her eyes could not believe what she was seeing.

“Oh get out!” Elizabeth spat, “Fine, we are together now. You may leave!”

“What…” she choked. She turned to Alex for an explanation and with a smirk, the man decided to explain

“I don't date ladies who claim they can't give themselves to me. Did you think I would actually date you without sex? Emma, meet my real girlfriend, Elizabeth. The one who gives me all that I need” he kissed Elizabeth on the back of her hand,

“As for you, you've always been a side chick”

Emma's throat tightened as she watched the two play lovey-dovey in her face. She felt like puking. She just wanted to get out of them, but then again, she paused.

Walking over to where Elizabeth sat on the bed, she landed her a resounding slap,

PAK

“You both deserve each other." She spat before walking out. She was so hurt, deeply hurt, that no matter how many times she wiped her tears, she couldn't stop crying.

Somewhere in a large, luxurious office, someone stepped in with some files. Liam, left all he was doing when he saw the man step in. He is more than eager to know who he had slept with last night and who it was that dared to drug him.

“What did you find?” Liam asked. His personal assistant passed the file to him,

“A lady named Elizabeth Crown seems to have booked room 302 last night, sir”

Liam took the file and began to look through it, his mouth moved,

“Elizabeth Crown…”
