Chapter 2 No.2

I go upstairs and head into a random room. I then go to the bathroom. I need to take a cold shower to calm myself down. Hate kept growing inside me.

How could they do this to me? In one day ? How could my parents forget me so easily? How can they be happy that their son-in-law is marrying another? And Leo? That asshole who said he loved me! And this Melina fucking my boyfriend when she told me she loved him like a brother, nothing more. My ass yeah!

They really fucked my face!

After taking my shower, I throw myself on the soft bed. It feels fucking good!

I then lie on my back and stare at the ceiling thinking of those people, those people I trusted so desperately who turned their backs on me.

I trusted them. I gave them everything. I loved them.

My parents". My ex-fiancé. My friends".

But as of today, I only feel hatred for them.

They were going to pay!

After having had my breakfast, grandmother suggested that I go shopping to take my mind off things. So I prepare myself before leaving the house and running towards the Ferrari that my grandmother lent me.

Here we go !!!

I walk into a pretty good shop. There was absolutely everything I needed, clothes, make-up, shoes, lingerie... Well, girly stuff! My cart was already full. It's time to checkout!

I head to the cash register and pay for my purchases before going out and putting all my bags in the trunk of "my" car.

I decide to go buy myself some food. I was really hungry, so I stop in front of a fast food restaurant.

I order a burger with fries and wait patiently for my order to arrive.

I hear laughter to my left and turning my head, I see a beautiful couple, happy with their baby. I smiled when I saw them laugh. They were so happy.

I suddenly start thinking about Leo. I miss him so much despite the pain he caused me. If only he listened to me and believed in me, we would surely be laughing like this couple, we would surely be kissing our baby, but alas, fate decided otherwise.

*FLASHBACK*

"I swear I didn't do anything Leo. I love you and your sister like she was my own. I could never have done such a thing to her.

"LIAR!!" he yelled.

Leo advances dangerously towards me and takes me violently by the arm.

"Leo...please...please. Trust me." I begged him crying

"STOP LIE EMILY!!" He screamed shaking me

"Leo, my love, I'm telling you the truth. I didn't kill your sister. I didn't kill him. Believe me. I beg you. I didn't-"

I can't finish my sentence when his hand slams hard against my cheek.

"YOU ARE JUST A DIRTY BITCH! I WONDER HOW I COULD FALL IN LOVE WITH A SHIT LIKE YOU!"

he yelled pushing me hard against the wall

I moaned in pain when my back banged against the wall, but Leo looked like he had nothing to do because when I fell to the ground, he kicked me in the stomach. Not the belly!

"NO! PLEASE STOP LEO! STOP!!"

*END OF FLASHBACK*

"Are you okay ma'am?" Asked the waiter with a worried look.

I notice only after my tears had flowed. Shit !

"Yes. Yes. I'm fine thank you."

He puts down my plate and gives me a last smile, which I return, before turning on my heels.

I can't help but smile when I see my burger and fries. I lick my lips before tasting this marvel. Oh my God ! It's so good ! Five years since I had not eaten this!! Five years !

I eat my hamburger when someone comes to sit in front of me, on MY table! No, but he thought he was at home? I didn't even give it permission to install!

Raising my head, I choke on my hamburger. There is a bomb in front of me!! A bomb ! My God ! Beautiful brown hair, green eyes, lips... Damn, luscious lips! I also see his muscles under his white shirt.

He must have an athletic body!

When he smiles at me, I notice his beautiful dimples! It is a divine beauty!

"Do you want a magnifying glass miss?"

he asked in a sensual voice

"A magnifying glass? No thanks." I replied while continuing to stare at this bomb in front of me

"You seem to like what you see.

- Oh yes absolutely! You do not know..."

When I realize what I just said, I blush and turn redder than a tomato and look away. I could see his smile in the corner of his eye.

SHAME ! He saw me ogling him!

"You're really cute with rosy cheeks you know?"

No, I didn't know that, fool!

"Thanks.

- What does a magnificent creature do alone on a table?

- Well, I'm eating, can't you see that?

He laughs as he shows me his beautiful teeth. And shit! Isn't there something ugly about him?

"Sorry, I didn't introduce myself. My name is André Nelson. Delighted."

Andrew Nelson? I've heard that name before somewhere. But where ?

"Emily Scott. Delighted Mr. Nelson."

He smiles at me and gently takes my hand. I shiver when he places his lips on it. But what the hell is he doing?

"Are you married or engaged?

-Eh ?

-The ring you have on your finger."

I then look at my ring finger. I still had Leo's engagement ring, I never threw it away. I always had it with me and I wonder if he still has his with him. Obviously not. I'm so dumb.

"Nope.

-Oh good ? So why this ring?

- They offered it to me." I lied

He raises an eyebrow staring at me.

I'm trying hard not to let my tears flow and I think he's noticed since he's stroking my cheek.

His hand was so soft.

"I am really sorry." He apologized looking at me sadly

"Why ?

-To have awakened bad memories.

-Do not worry."

I smile at him and finish my burger. I raise an eyebrow at his amused expression.

"What ?

-You are the first woman I see eating a hamburger and fries.

-Oh good ?

-Yes. Usually they only eat salad.

-Well, sorry to disappoint you but I don't really like salads.

"I saw that." He replied in an amused tone.

We talk for several minutes when his phone rings. He looks at it and blows.

"I have to go. Nice to meet you miss.

-Likewise."

He takes my hand and gives a kiss before leaving. It made me smile in minutes. I really hope we meet again.

I take my bag and head to the cash register to pay my bill.
