Chapter 100 - Threatening Bodily Harm

His manager ignored him and gunned the engine. "No, I'm not. We are going over to her place," he said sternly.

'This can't be happening. I can't take more humiliation.' "Turn the car around. Let's go home."

"For once, listen to me. I am doing this as your friend and I know that you will regret not going." His manager said. "I am going against everything in me as your manager to do this for you. Because I care for you, you little bastard," he gritted through his teeth.

"This isn't funny. It's over. She thinks I lied to her and went behind her back to date somebody." He was sweating even though the temperature in the car was not that bad.

"And you're going to be a child about it and not tell her the truth? Don't you want a chance to explain?" The way these words were said made Cage feel like a brat. He wasn't wrong. Katherine had called him a liar and a cheat like she was comparing him to her ex-boyfriend Jonathan, and he didn't appreciate it.

His temper flared and he too said some pretty hurtful things to her, saying that she herself was not genuine with him and that he wouldn't bother to tell someone so small-minded the reasons for what he had done. He had confessed to a crime he had never committed.

"I don't want a chance to explain. She thinks too lowly of me."

"And did you think what she was going through when you didn't even call after you ditched your plans to meet her? Who knows how long she must have stood there waiting for you." Yes, he had been insensitive, but all he wanted at that moment was to not reveal her in front of his fans before he even got the chance to say something to her. He couldn't bear to make her face the music for something she had not signed up for.

"I didn't—" He was cut off by Stephen.

"You didn't think, right? As usual," he scoffed. Cage gave him a measured glare.

His friend was trying to be technical when he was the one suffering from a broken heart. "You know how I felt, Steph. I couldn't do anything! She didn't tell me who she was either. How do I know if she knew about me or not?" he asked, now exasperated. His heart ached.

"I know, but I didn't know that you could be so inconsiderate towards someone you think you love. You are pissing me off. The first thing you do when you have a fight is hightail it out of the room without approaching her or consoling her and telling her that she is wrong about you. That is just childish behavior, Cage."

"Hey, I have never been in a proper relationship before!" he tried to defend, but he could see that there was truth in the fact.

"You are a grown-ass man. You are twenty-six, for god's sake. You should know better than this! You had options."

Options? How was he supposed to know what options he had? He couldn't even see how he would salvage this situation.

"How the fuck would I know my options?" Cage screamed in frustration, his hand reaching up to pull at his hair. It was now all black like it had been when he was younger and before he had joined the industry. He had made the change because he didn't want to be recognized in public. But he had been. What was he supposed to do?

"She's a fan, anyway. You never know how she would react once she finds out," he pouted.

"You're a liar if you think that. You would have run away if that bothered you in the first place."

"So what?"

"Okay, I will turn this car around and you will never meet your girl ever again. She is going to go on a date with some other guy and fall in love with him because you did her injustice and then she will marry him and have his babies."

It hurt. It really hurt to think that his Katherine wasn't his after all.

"Don't say that," he choked as he looked in horror at his friend.

"This guy is going to see what you saw in her and he is going to fall in love with her. He will do everything in his power to get her to fall for him and she will be so hurt that she will give in." Cage growled when he heard that.

"You're not making it any better. She has a boyfriend now. She recovered so quickly. Have you thought about that? Maybe she didn't like me?" Who was he kidding? Of course, they liked each other. This was her way of getting revenge. Didn't he know?

"I have nothing to say to you. I can't believe you let her hear Tanny's voice and didn't say anything to her. She heard some girl tell her that she was your girlfriend and that you were in the shower. She probably has no interest in the guy and is only going because she thinks you cheated on her. And you did nothing to defend yourself."

He was about to defend himself when it hit him.

"How do you know that?" Cage asked.

Stephen didn't say a word as he sped. They were going way over the speed limit and there was a high chance that the police would come and chase them any second then. "Did you call her?" Cage asked, horrified.

"I didn't call her. Her friend called you and while you were moping, I picked up the call and got the end of her wrath."

Cage blinked. "Which friend was it? Lily?" She was a scary woman.

"No. I think the name was Angelina. Really a feisty woman and sounded really hot when she was angry, as well! Thanks to you, I get to meet a firecracker. She was threatening bodily harm on you, too." Stephen side-eyed him to gauge his expression.
