Treachery Affair

Jayden Clinton…

It’s Friday today, but I don’t feel like going to work. Alex hasn’t still been able to meet the person, and I also haven’t heard from Harley still. Thinking about it all is driving me to the edge of craziness and it’s annoying.

Sitting in my living room and trying o get some work done on my laptop, I keep losing concentration. I sigh heavily, reclining on the couch, while staring up at the ceiling. My phone suddenly beeps, and I lazily pick it up from the couch, unlocking it. A message pops on the screen. ‘Meet me at Devon’s mountain later’ the text reads, and I pull a puzzled look. The number is a strange number and I have no idea who the voice belongs to.

Still trying to figure it out, my phone buzzes again, and another message from the same person pops on the screen again. Who is this person, and what does he or she wants? That’s the questions I keep asking myself as I stare at the screen of my phone. I finally shrug and drop the phone beside me on the couch…

Evening…

After he received the message, he hasn’t been able to stop thinking of it. He keeps asking himself who could’ve sent it, but there’s no way he will know that, unless he go see for himself, right?

He is fully dressed in a purple t-shirt upon a black trouser. His hair is messy, but still looks cute on him though. He takes another glance at his reflection in the mirror, before he finally ambles out of his room.

Stepping out of his room, he strides down the hallway and heads straight to the parking lot downstairs, where he hops in his car and finally drives out of the house.

As he drives down the road, many questions keep conflicting in his mind. Since it’s late in the evening, the drive is smooth and he arrives quite early. He parks neatly at the side of the road, and heads straight to the mountain afterwards.

He is welcomed with an empty space when he gets to the mountain. Seconds slowly ticks into minutes and there’s still no sign of someone there.

“I thought you were not going to come, but turns out you’re still that same fearless man I’ve always know…” the familiar voice he will always recognize, even in his deep sleep sounds from behind him, and he slowly clenches his fists as anger spurs through him. He slowly turns around to see Samir standing there with a smirk dancing at the corner of his lips.

“Long time, no see, dear friend…” he laughs sarcastically. He should’ve known that it was Samir.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Why did you call me here? I don’t have enough time to spare,” he questions him, anger resounding in his voice.

“Not too fast, jay… I have a story to tell you…” he turns around and faces him again.

“Six years ago, you can’t forget so soon, I know that. Do you want to know what happened?” he chuckles softly, and Jayden gasps silently.

“I know you can’t wait to prove your innocence to Harley, but too bad that she will never believe you. Do you think you can mess with me and go scot-free? Never! All I ever did was to help you, but you thought you could outsmart me, which is the biggest mistake you shouldn’t have made, Jayden…”

“I never outsmarted you… I didn’t betray you, Samir. It was never my fault that Harley fell in love with me! It wasn’t my fault that she chose me over you!” Jayden cuts him off, and he scoffs.

“Let’s agree that you’re right in that. But you weren’t expecting me to spare you, are you? You weren’t expecting me to watch you take the woman I ever loved, right? Do you know how long we have been together? I have been there for her when no one was. Where the hell were you then?” he thunders angrily, glaring hard at jay.

“You killed her family, how dare you still think that you have the right to be with her? Don’t you have conscience…?”

“I didn’t kill her family! I am innocent, I never did any of the things she accused me of!” Jayden yells angrily, running his fingers through his hair. It was never his fault, he was just trying to save the family, and it wasn’t his fault that they died. Why does nobody believe him? Why is everyone thinking that he is the bad person here?

“Of course I know that you had nothing to do with that…” Jayden’s eyes slowly widens in shock, as he tries to process what he just said.

“The one that killed the family of Williams was me!” Jayden freezes on the spot. For some minutes, the whole world stops working. He bats his eyelashes to be sure that he isn’t dreaming.

“What?” Jayden exclaims unbelievably. Of course, he is still finding it difficult to believe.

“Well, sorry to make you look like the bad person, but you left me with that choice. Yes, you went to save them… you managed to save Alexa, but I took her away. All these years, I have been making her believe that I saved her… she has been living her life, serving me. I was like her god…she did everything I asked her to do, but you came from nowhere and think you could ruin things for me? You think you could mess with me and I’ll let you off so easily? Well, sorry to disappoint you, but there’s no forgiveness in Samir’s dictionary…” his eyes darken.

“How could you have done this? How could you have lied to her? How could you have been so selfish? What did I ever do to you? I tough we were friends?” tears trickles down his cheeks as he glares at him with resentment. He has never been this hurt all his life; he wasn’t expecting this from him.

“You pushed me beyond tolerance! Yes, we were friends, but I considered you a foe the moment you betrayed me. She is supposed to be mine, I love her and she loved me, but because of you, everything changed! Because of you, she no longer loves me, and you think that I will let you have her? Never!” he thunders…
