Semua Bab Keep Him Fed : Bab 71 - Bab 80

WRENI took the available cab to the apartment, Misan said he'd managed to leave his house to ours. Now I feel so bad for not answering his calls all this while, maybe this mightn't have happened who knows.Jace was a cool guy, that was what attracted me to him, then when I realized how much of a lover boy he was, I didn't like it, then Asher came in the picture.Asher was just for a mission, but Jace doesn't know that. “Jace,” I called his name when I couldn't find him by our door, so I increased my voice while shouting. “Jace!” I saw him crawl from the ground, he'd rested all his weight on the pillar at the corner side of our apartment.“Thank goodness!” I exclaimed. “What the hell happened?” I helped him up for support, he wasn't that big like Asher, so I didn't feel much weight on me.I laid him on the couch in our sitting room and grabbed a first aid kit for medical checkup.True to Misan's words, he was close to death, eyes swollen red, one was closed, his cheek dark with bru

WREN“Wren? Is that you?”I heard Jace's voice even before I opened the door to his hospital room, aware Asher was behind me.“Yes,” I answered with concern.The least Asher could do was lead Jace to me. Misan sent a worried text, asking if I'd want her to call the police but I quickly deband it.Sammy was sitting on a chair close to Jace's bed, I shouldn't be surprised, they are friends actually.“You came,” Sammy said, standing up from his seat as he looked at my back, then back to my face.Asher probably wasn't smiling at him, because Sammy's expression was that of a scared cat.“Misan's here too?” He asked me.If Misan had come with me, I wondered how they would react to each other. I shook my head, today isn't about them but about Jace’s health.“No, she's in the apartment.” I noticed he gave a deep sigh of sadness? Huh, he nodded once, then excused himself immediately. Had Jace told him Asher was part of his friends' beating? Sammy should be looking vengeful towards Asher if h

ASHER “The divorce papers will be sent to you in a few days,” I told Eve, the moment we drove to my father's house.“How time flies, it's been three years already,” Eve laughed, but it wasn't reaching her eyes.She would be better off without me, it's an opportunity to go flung with the man she really loves, I feel I have blocked her from men all these years.In the end at least she got what she wanted from me, one was the fame from marrying a Vaughn, and two her blooming career as a ballet dancer.My name was taking her places, not forgetting her pocket would be full with money.“It is, I must say you did a good job while it lasted,” I loved her acting skills too.“You're welcome,” Eve hugged me, and I returned the gesture. Suddenly she let go of me, searching for something in her diamond purse.“That reminds me, Carson's anniversary is coming, we need to be there,” she brought out a card to me.It was designed as an anniversary card, with my friend's name Amery on it with her husba

WREN“I will reach you again,” Brenda told the person from the other end.The lady ended the call, giving me her full focus. “I'm sorry, have we met before?”I should say yes, she'd wanted to help when I sent her that anonymous message.But she went ghost on me, I don't even know if I should trust her, apparently it seems she doesn't even remember me.It's useless anyways, the flashdrive was gone, I should've fucking made a copy, that was the wisest thing to do.“Hey,” Brenda chuckled. “Do I know you?” “No not really, I'm not surprised anymore, I keep getting this question repeatedly everyday, I must have a twin I don't even know about.” I laughed, unsure what to say so she'd let me be. “Excuse me,” I told her, walking out of the restroom.Hopefully she doesn't tail me down, was she pretending? I mean, I lost my flashdrive the day I was supposed to meet with her.And if she wasn't against me, she wouldn't have disappeared on me, coming back again with a different identity.***ASHER

WREN“You told me he wouldn't be here,” Misan accused, going to take her bag from the couch.She hates me for this, I deserved it right. If Sammy was smart he'd use this opportunity well, him forgetting something important was the hope he was missing.Which is Misan.“Relax, I'm sorry, okay? As you heard he forgot something.” “I shouldn't have come here,” she sighed furiously. I sat on the couch not moving, frustrated seeing her angry at me.Jace and Sammy were in a room where they could still be talking about his ex fiancee, Misan.“Are you coming with me, or I can see myself out,” Misan was very stubborn.I grudgingly took my shoulder hand bag, texted Jace to let him know we were leaving. Just then Sammy walked in with Jace, more of like on a run.“Misan, can we have a word?” Sammy asked. When Misan didn't say anything he advanced towards her. “It will be quick I promise.” My eyes met Misan and I pleaded with her to at least give him a chance, he looked ragged since she left him.
