THIRTY SIX
=HAILEY’s POV=
It’s nice to be back.
Who would think that I would still be alive after what I’ve done?
Now I believe by the sayings ‘Bad grass, don’t die easily.’
I ignore Hunter but I can see in my peripheral vision that he is simplifying his gaze on me.
“Your man keeps on looking at you,” Asher said to me while laughing.
“I know,” I also laugh at my answer.
“He can’t believe your back. Hot, wild, sexy, and yummy.” Then he hugged me on the waist.
“Ashley is looking at us,” I whisper to him.
“Yeah! She motioned his lips and hands like she wants me to hug you. For sure, she wants to bully her brother.” Then he hugs me more tightly. “God, your body is soft Ley. But I think Ashley’s waist is nicer to hug.” Then he cleared his throat.
“You want me to help you get closer to her?” I asked.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“My pleasure, you know how much I like her from the start.” He replied so I smile.
“Both of you take care of me. Thank you for your kindness and I’ve indebted my life to both of you, Because of that I will not hate her even she the sister of my ex.”
“Ley, don’t get mad at her. She saved you from your madness.” I laughed angrily then tapped Asher’s shoulder.
“No worries. I still have 5% sanity. Thanks for everything, Ash.” I sincerely said.
“Thanks to your sister-in-law, because if it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t be able to help you either,” he said while laughing so I punched him lightly.
I saw Hera stand and go out, I also saw Hunter follow her.
I laughed suddenly because of Hunter’s actions. No one knows where I came from. So if Hunter will ask Hera where I’m from, he won’t get anything from my sister.
When I dropped the car on the bridge I made sure no one was there. No one can see me. When I fall down, I immediately lost consciousness because I was probably tired and maybe because I wasn’t really well from the miscarriage of my baby. So I no longer know what happened to me after I fainted.
I just woke up in the hospital. When I rolled my eyes I saw Asher and Agatha.
Surprisingly I was unable to ask because I was being dragged by drowsiness. I just heard the doctor say I was safe. When I finally regained consciousness, I realized that weeks had passed before I woke up. Asher said he already called my family and said that nothing to worry about me.
He said that he tells them I am ok and I am on vacation. He didn’t have a hard time convincing my family because mommy and daddy used to make me disappear all of a sudden.
Even before I asked what had happened Asher had already told me the truth. He is a friend of Ashley and a hired private investigator. Ashley begged him to watch over me. Because she allegedly found out that Hunter and Kyla were still in contact. And she heard that Hunter was planning to send Kyla home to the Philippines.
Ashley wants to know her brother’s movements. Asher is always telling Ashley what he sees on me every time we met. He simplified spying on Hunter and Kyla also. When I asked him why he followed Ashley’s order he simplifies blushed and said that he loved Ashley.
He said it was his first move to Ashley’s heart even though she had a boyfriend. Vince, Kyla’s ex who also dated Kyla in the USA. So to make a good shot at Ashley he did all his orders.
Every time I leave, he follows me. So when he saw what I had done he immediately jumped into the water to rescue me. He hid me because that’s what Ashley said. From the first day I was lost, Ashley, Asher, and Agatha knew where I really was.
Ashley visits me at the hospital often. I would never think a bitch like her could cry and show weakness when she sees me. We didn’t talk about the past but she just said I should get better. Go back to what I used to have. A Hailey who doesn’t give up on everything and doesn’t know how to cry.
And here I am, that even Asher can’t believe that I am like this. Because he knows me as Hailey who is not artistic, not flirtatious, quiet, simple, and oppressed. A very opposite of Hailey who cried with him.
When I came back to my family I did not say what really happened to me. I just said I was on vacation. It doesn’t matter where I’m from, the important thing is that I’m back. But I knew my family had a hint that something bad had happened to Hunter and me so I disappeared.
No one dares to ask me a question because they also know that they can’t get any answer.
“Hailey, Hunter wants to talk to you.” I looked at Asher when Hera talked about Hunter. He just shrugged as if to say, ‘up to me.’
I faced Hera who smiled awkwardly at me.
“Why?”
“What why? You owe him an explanation,” she said.
“Really? As far as I know, we are not connected.”
“Tell that to T,”
“T?” Asher and I asked at the same time.
“Turtle, go ahead and talk to him. At least tell him you’re ok and he doesn’t need to worry because you are ok. And at least give him the proper closures that you didn’t give when you disappeared.”
“You know Ley, your sister’s brain works properly, unlike you,” Asher said while laughing.
“Whatever.”
I have no choice but to face him. Besides, it’s ok with me no matter what the outcome of our conversation will be. I removed him from my heart so his presence has no effect on me.
When I came out the door I saw Hunter turning around like he wants to leave.
“Hunter,” I called as I saw him leave.
He immediately turned to me and I see him hesitating. Oh! he lost too much weight and just now I noticed thoroughly. It seems that Kyla sucked all his juice.
“Hi,” he greeted.
“Do you need anything from me?” I asked. He was just staring at me.
I even snapped my fingers at him to come back in reality.
“Ah! I’m sorry. I just wanted to inform you that the annulment has come out,” he said.
“Ok! I see that’s good. Is that all?”
“Hmm, I gave your things to the cleaners. I’ll just replace them.” I smile then tapped his shoulder which surprised him and I see him shrug.
Do I have electricity in my hand and he was startled when I touched him?
“It’s ok, there is no important in there and it doesn’t matter to me anymore. I don’t need those crap so thanks for throwing it away. Do you need anything else?” I said while resting my hand on his shoulder.
“Nothing.”
“Ok. Bye.” I was about to turn around when Hunter suddenly grabbed my hand so I immediately faced him and then looked at his hand.
