Love Slave to My Devil CEO Boss R18

Chapter 222

222 Her Over Me

“Why didn’t you tell me?” I snapped.

If he knew that Elizabeth was on the way here to see Ace, why didn’t he let me know. The way Ace acted was suspicious and he seemed extremely worried all throughout our drive back here. I didn’t want to believe that he could look that concern if he just wanted to meet Elizabeth. Something must have happened.

Something...serious...

“You told me not to contact you. Remember?” Kyle replied teasingly.

Shit. I guess I did say something along those lines.

“I told you not to contact me unless something happens. Doesn’t this count as something happening?” I snapped in a hushed tone.

“Rina...” Kyle called my name in a hushed whisper and then I felt my arm being pulled roughly.

Just when I was about to yell at him for scaring me, a car drove by us and into the parking lot. The way Kyle’s body seemed to stiffen next to me told me without any doubt whose car that was just now. No wonder he felt like we needed to hide away for a bit while that car past by us.

“Is that Elizabeth’s car?” I asked although I guessed that I already knew the answer.

.....

“Yes, it’s her car all right...” Kyle replied as his mood seemed to darken.

Ace...

Did you really come back here to meet up with her?

Why would you do something like that?

“Maybe they’re just here to meet up on some business...” I muttered.

I probably failed to convince Kyle because I couldn’t even convince myself to believe that.

“Yeah...on a Sunday of all days...” he muttered with clear distaste.

Just when I had sworn to put more trust in Ace and not let Kyle mess with my mind, I couldn’t stop the sinking feeling that I felt deep inside of me. I stood up straight after yanking my arm away from Kyle’s grip again. Elizabeth and her car were gone now and there was no need for us to hide away anymore. Staying here with this jerk isn’t going to solve any of my problems. Before I talk to Ace about this, I am not going to believe in anything that this liar says to me!

“I’m going home. Bye...” I muttered before turning away.

“Where are you going?” Kyle asked is if in disbelief.

“Home. There’s no need for me to hang around here with you anymore...” I snapped at him again.

“Your dear boyfriend just left you to see my wife and you’re saying that that has nothing to do with you?” Kyle asked with widened eyes.

I hated how he had to put it like that. Ace didn’t...leave me...

“Shut up! Don’t say anything when you actually don’t know anything. There is no proof whatsoever that they’re meeting up,” I said as my anger boiled over.

“Just listen to how delusional you sound right now, Rina. Why would Elizabeth turn up here of all places on a Sunday when the office is supposed to be close? Do you really think its coincidence that your dear boyfriend just left you in front of the office building at around the exact same time?” Kyle asked.

“That’s...” I mumbled softly.

I hated how Kyle could read my mind and put my thoughts and wonders into words. I knew that everything about the situation was suspicious, but I desperately wanted to believe that there was a good explanation behind all of this.

“Stop fooling yourself, Rina!” Kyle yelled at me as he grabbed my shoulders and began shaking me.

I was too stunned at his words to react. No matter how many times that he shook my body, I couldn’t shake the doubt that I felt deep inside of my chest.

“Stop calling me that! My name is Karina!” I yelled back.

“You can go home if you want...” Kyle muttered coldly as his hands dropped away from my body to his side.

His sudden change in attitude made me wonder what had brought about this sudden change in him.

“What about you?” I asked curiously.

“I’m going to wait here until they leave...to see if they’ll leave together or if they’re going to head somewhere else together...” he replied simply.

“You’re going to tail them?” I asked in shock.

“Yeah. You can head home if you want,” Kyle mumbled like he didn’t care about me anymore.

Now that he was fine with me taking off, I was the one who hesitated. I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t worried and curious about what those two were up to or why they had to meet up together like this. Their meeting was unplanned for sure and that call that Ace took away from me outside the bedroom must have been from Elizabeth.

What did she tell him?

Whatever it was, it was enough to get Ace to head back to see her immediately even though we were in the middle of our holiday. My head throbbed so painfully that I thought that it would explode. No matter what, I couldn’t shake away the uneasy feeling in my heart and the suspicion in my mind. If I went home now, would I be able to stop thinking about it?

Is this how Kyle is feeling as well? Is that why he seemed so intent on seeing everything through for himself?

I shook my head from side to side as I tried to shake away those ominous thoughts. Haven’t you learnt your lessons already, Rina?

I knew that I had to stop doubting Ace and stop making everything that Kyle says sway me. If I were to look at it from another angle, this might be all because of Kyle’s own insecurities.

“Kyle, maybe we should head home. They’re probably meeting for some urgent business that needs to be kept confidential...” I tried to tell him calmly.

“Confidential and urgent business?” Kyle asked, clearly unconvinced.

“I don’t know why you’re acting so insecure about it. You two just got married not so long ago...” I said before I let out a sigh.

“We’re not legally married...yet...” Kyle replied softly.
