The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

Chapter 488 Needed Her Friends

Alveena called Erica and Selena. She didn't want to go home so she contacted her friends, asking them to accompany her tonight. She badly needed their presence.

Fortunately, Erica and Selena were just around the area when they received her message.

They were hanging out together, enjoying the celebration of Empire City's Centennial Year.

They immediately fetched Alveena in the City of Empire Big Dome. They were surprised to see her reddened puffy eyes.

"What happened to you? Did you cry?" Erica asked her worriedly.

"Let's talk later. Just get me out of this place first." Alveena said to them with her pleading voice.

Erica and Selena just exchanged glances with one another before nodding at her. They wondered what happened to Alveena that she looked gloomy and sad.

"Hop in," Selena said, opening the car door for her.

Soon, the three of them left the Big Dome. They headed straight to Selena's place. This was not the best time for partying. Alveena didn't look well.

When they arrived at Selena's place, they let Alveena change her clothes and take a quick shower first.

They decided to talk to her in the bedroom. Erica and Selena waited for her to finish.

When she was done, the three ladies gathered in the guest room where Alveena would be sleeping tonight.

"Okay, now talk! What's wrong with you? Why did you cry?" Erica urged Alveena to speak up.

Selena held Alveena's hand, squeezing it gently. They were sitting on the bed, facing each other.

"I… I fell in love…" Alveena said, making the two girls gasp in surprise.

"I fell in love with the wrong guy," Alveena completed her words, smiling bitterly at them.

Selena and Erica were disappointed after hearing her last words. They thought they would be celebrating because finally their best friend, Alveena, fell in love with someone. But unfortunately, Alveena told them that she fell for the wrong guy.

"Huh? What happened?" Selena probed. "Who is the guy?"

Erica looked at Alveena intently, anticipating her reply.

"It's Mr. Grumpy. I already liked him. And I even confessed my feelings for him tonight."

"Eh? So what did he say? Did he reject you?" Erica asked her quizzically.

"If he rejected you then it's his loss, not yours! You are an amazing woman, Alveena! If he doesn't want you then you can just replace him. There are lots of men, chasing after you!" Selena said, trying to console Alveena.

Alveena felt like crying again after hearing that. She didn't want anyone. Andrew was the only person she liked. He was the one who taught her heart to love someone sincerely. It would not be easy to forget about him.

"I didn't hear his answer…"

"What! He is such a jerk! Why couldn't he say something! I hate that guy already!" Selena said, raising her balled fists as if she was ready to punch someone.

"No, don't judge him first. I think Alveena is not yet done telling us what happened." Erica tried her best to calm Selena down.

Alveena nodded in agreement. She took a deep breath before continuing.

"He was not able to say something because we were interrupted by someone."

Selena couldn't help but react again. "Huh?! Who's that someone? I'm gonna beat that someone for interrupting the two of you!"

Alveena lowered her gaze and answered her, "That someone was his fiancee…"

Selena and Erica were both dumbfounded after hearing that. They didn't know what to say. Now, they understood why Alveena said those words to them. She fell in love with the wrong guy because the guy was already engaged!

The room was engulfed by deafening silence. No one spoke up. Selena just hugged Alveena while rubbing her back. She thought that Alveena needed a warm hug from a friend and a shoulder to cry on tonight.

It was Erica who broke the silence. She hated to see Alveena feeling so down and gloomy like this. She was used to seeing her bubbly and bright attitude.

"Why the hell did you confess to him? Have you not gotten any clue or signal that he was already committed to someone?"

Alveena shook her head. "No, I didn't. He never talked about his fiancee in front of me. I confessed because I thought he was also attracted to me."

"Why do you think so?!!" Erica asked her again exasperatedly.

"Because we kissed! We already kissed, not once… but twice… no, it was already three times including the accidental kiss!" Alveena admitted to them.

The two ladies were taken aback once more upon hearing that revelation from her. They kissed each other many times already. So it was understandable why Alveena thought that the guy was also attracted to her.

"Damn! What a jerk!?? Is he playing with you? He should have told you that already during the first kiss! Is he cheating or something?! Now I really want to punch that guy! Bring me to him now. I'm gonna beat that Mr. Grumpy," Selena burst out again after she recovered from the shock.

"Yeah, I agree with you! I will join you and beat him into a pulp! How dare he toy with our friend's feelings?"

Alveena didn't know whether to cry or laugh because of her friends' reaction. She really appreciated their support. But she didn't wish Andrew to get hurt. Though she was hurt badly, she didn't even think of slapping him because it was not entirely his fault.

"Ladies, you know that I love you and you love me too. So I'm so happy that you are here, willing to listen to me. But please, don't put all the blame on Mr.Grumpy. Don't hate him that much."

"Why are you still defending that guy, Alveena? Is he worth it?" Selena asked her in disbelief.

"Yes… because he was so good to me. He took care of me when I ran away from home. He took care of me when I was sick. He… he… he…" Alveena was not able to finish her sentence as she began to cry once more.

Selena and Erica just sighed deeply while looking at her helplessly. They didn't say another word. They just hugged Alveena, comforting her.
