All Chapters of After My Groom Betrayed Me, I Took His Best Man: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

ELOWENI raised my hand to the back of my head and groaned. The area I had landed on that bottle with was still throbbing with pain like crazy."Oh God," I lowered my hand and sighed. I had been in bed all day. I lowered my hand to the bed covers over me and sighed."But they're so comfortable," I whined to myself. I threw them off my feets and sat up. I had to get out of bed.My eyes landed on the small couch Ryan had been sitting on last night and I exhaled deeply. He had accused me of trying to destroy his company and after I helped him find out the truth, he let the culprit go?After all Owen had done to me, I wanted him to suffer especially after last night. I wanted to watch everything he had go down the drain with him.Only then would I be satisfied.The growl of my tummy disrupted my thoughts and I looked down at it."I have to eat as well." I muttered to myself and threw my leg off the bed and stood up in one seamless move. I pushed my feet into the bunny ear house slippers n

ELOWEN"Alfred..." I hesitated, pulling my hand back from his body as I raised my eyes to the robber that looked unbothered by the terror in my eyes, the paleness of my face, the tremble of my hands and the room that had just erupted in screams from every corner."How could yo..." My voice trailed as I stumbled backwards away from the body laying before me."And you'll be next if you don't comply!" The robber yelled, raising the gun in my direction. I flinched, folding my legs and pressing them against my chest as I crawled back towards the elevator backwards using my hands as a guide."You all would be next if anyone tries that again!" He added, pointing the gun to the rest of the people who cowered in fear as the nossle of the gun was directed at them."How could you?" My voice was shaky, matching the vibration in my hands, feets and the frantic heartbeat against my ribs."We're just here for one person, nothing else and if you all can comply it would be much better," the huge arm r

RYAN"Alfred," I groaned as I pressed the phone against my ear, I lowered my eyes to my left leg that was jammed in between the car door and my seat."Sir." He answered, his voice was light and soft. I grunted as I tried to pull out my feet but couldn't."Are you alright sir?" His voice switched from soft and light to tight and concerned."I'm fine," I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath. "How's Elowen?" I asked, feeling dizzy."She's fine sir, finally got out of the room to have something to eat." I smiled, feeling the blood wash away from my face."Where is she now?""On her way to her room, sir." He answered and I sighed. "Here's what you're going to do for me, get Elowen to the hospital any way you can, the one we have a wing at,""Outside Tim and Jeff would be ready, they'll brief you on everything I already discussed with them," I continued. "Make it believable." I added. "Alright sir." "And," I looked at the smoking car outside the window, a man was inside, blood flowing do

ELOWEN"I told you, that's not part of the monthly target!" I squeezed my the bedsheets in-between my hand and groaned as I turned around in the king-sized bed.I yawned and finally popped my eye open, searching for the noise that disrupted my sleep. I looked around rubbing one of myeyes.My eyes fell on Ryan's form outside discussing with someone on the phone. He l ooked worked up but still managed to seem attractive.I bit my lower lip and paused, looking away from his form."What was that, Elowen?" I muttered to myself and ran my hand through my hair.I moved my gaze back to his physique and let my eyes roam his body as he turned around. His toned arms shone in the sun, his hair tousled and shiny.I felt my heartbeat increase and my knees go weak.Was I... attracted to Ryan?Well, he had a banging physique but was there something more?I looked away, trying to steady my heart beat. I snuck a peek and noticed he was looking right at me."Oh God..." My voice trailed as I breathed out

RYAN"I want something feminine, just perfect enough for a night out in the city, then some other casual feminine wears as well." I pointed at some of the clothes I saw hanging in the boutique as I looked around for any other thing Elowen would like."In what size sir?" The woman behind the counter asked. I raised my eyebrows."Size, sir." She emphasized the word 'size'. I blinked back the urge to describe how little Elowen looked in my eyes. Why didn't I think about getting her size.I bite my lower lip as I tapped my feet on the ground. "Would you be able to identify through a picture?" She smiled then shook her head."The proportions of a camera lens and a picture resolution may vaguely differ from a size in real life," she started."So, I'm afraid not, sir." She politely nodded. I ran my hand through my head and sighed."From a size 6 to size 10?" I raised my gaze from my sneakers to the attendant face."I don't understand you, sir." She tilted her head a little to the side. "Oh
