Chapter 52
I laughed a little. “Best, will I still be damned? Dark Alpha has been hunting me for several years but they still haven’t killed me. I’ve killed almost half of their number. And most of all, I’m holding Uno by the neck. “Am I still afraid of them?” my face was serious and my fists clenched. Get them ready for my return. Especially Ivan.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Well, I can say that I held Uno by the neck because he owed me the fact that the police did not catch him when he smuggled drugs at the Airport in Spain. That was my plan, I actually gave the hint to the police that he was carrying drugs and I paid the police not to arrest him. That’s the whole story. But I haven’t seen his face yet because he”s wearing a mask and so am I when we talk. I’m curious at him. I really want to lose his life when we meet but it’s too early for that. I have prepared a better revenge.
“Best, of course. I don’t want you to just jump into that. Darlyn was also affected. What’s the matter and Darlyn also seems angry with Dark Alpha?” he asked curiously so I frowned at him.
“You do not know?”
He nodded. For five years we’ve been together, she doesn’t know the reason why Darlyn was mad at Dark Alpha?
“Darlyn’s ex-husband was also a part of Dark Alpha and … they tried to kill Seymour.” I said and averted my gaze.
It’s true. Fortunately, Seymour had a gun at the time. But a bullet hit her in the shoulder so Darlyn was furious with those who did it to her older brother. Especially since her ex-husband was part of Dark Alpha.
“What the hell!” He looked at me in disbelief.
I sighed and nodded. “I have a strong feeling that Ivan and Uno were the same. But Ate said then that she was only second to the highest so I’m confused …” I stared at the floor. Who were you really, Ivan De Leon? You’re life was full of secrets. But I won’t waste any more knowing that because I still have to deprive you.
“Why do I seem to be the only one who doesn’t know about this?” he asked angrily.
I turned to him and smiled sadly. “I know you don’t like what we’re doing …” I replied.
“But best, even then you should still tell me. You should explain to me …” he started crying so I immediately hugged him.
I bit my lower lip. “It’s better when you don’t know, best. So that you don’t get hurt … Even the children.” I whispered in his ear.
I don’t want him and the children to be involved in what I do. I don’t want an innocent life to be happy again. Especially since they were all important to me …
I am currently sitting in one of the seats of my private plane. I’m still waiting for Darlyn so we’re not leaving yet. It was midnight now and I am thinking of the children. We don’t have their mothers now so I hope they were just fine.
Darlyn and I met back then here in LA and she was with her son. He said they have annulled his wife so he will live here. And then accordingly, Roxanne and I were with him on things as well as Seymour.
That time, when Seymour was shot in the shoulder, Darlyn was furious. And when he found out Xyleus was with Dark Alpha, he decided to join me in planning how to bring them down. At first, I refused, of course, because I didn’t want anyone else to get involved in what I was doing.
But when I saw his determination, I agreed. Besides, he just wants revenge like me. Even I was scared when Seymour was shot. So I taught her what I had learned from Ate.
“Andrea!”
I looked at him from staring out the window. I smiled at her.
“Hey, Darlyn.” I greet him.
She sat down next to me and a stewardess put her luggage in the compartment. He nodded at us and Darlyn thanked him before leaving.
Seymour still has the flight open because he was taking care of something important. I wonder what was that.
The pilot announced that the plane would be operational, so we immediately fastened our seat belts.
“I’m excited to see Xyleus again …” he said laughing so I turned to him immediately.
“Don’t tell me, do you still love him? Isn’t he head over heels with Corrine Zapanta?” I seriously question.
He stared at me for a moment and suddenly laughed. Sometimes Darlyn really doesn’t know it. But I always look forward to him.
“Ofcourse not! That’s not what I meant. Haller, as if I’ll still love a fool like him. What I mean was, I’m excited to see Xyleus again to show him the taste of hell.” she said shaking her head and putting on lipstick while holding a small mirror.
“Please clarify.” I laughed saying while struggling.
“Duh. If I know you’re the one who still loves his wife. Admit it, even five years have passed, it’s still your fucker husband, Ivan. That’s why you haven’t answered Kuya Seymour yet.” she looked at me for a moment and continued applying lipstick.
I was silent for a moment. I know I feel nothing for Ivan anymore because five years was enough for me to forget him. And one more thing, I just feel angry for him.
But something was stopping me from answering Seymour. He’s been dating for a few years but I still can’t find love for him. Despite his efforts to get me to answer, why don’t I still feel love at all?
Yes, I love him. But nothing has changed because I still love him as a friend. And maybe, that”s also why I haven’t answered him yet. Yes, I like him but that”s about it. Maybe my heart was still waiting for me to love him forever before I answer him.
And maybe it’s because I’m afraid to love again because I don’t want to be hurt anymore. Even though I knew Seymour would never hurt me, I was still scared.
“Oh, right? You’re quiet, girl. I’m right, what?” I turned to Darlyn and she smiled at me before leaning back in the chair.
I cleared my throat. “For your info, Darlyn. It’s not husband, it’s EX-HUSBAND.” I pretended to stare.
“Oh, as long as it’s like that. What’s the difference, she’s also your wife.” he said and pressed a button on his phone before it was turned off.
“Darlyn, tell me the truth …” I said while looking at the emptiness.
He was immediately able to sit up so I turned to him and raised an eyebrow.
“Oh, what am I going to admit that to you? I’m not keeping anything secret from you, Andrea. Promise, nothing really. I’m not lying to you so I’m not going to admit anything. We two have no secrets, right, best friend? Jusko! Who told you that I’m keeping something secret. “I’ll shoot him in the head.”
I blinked because of his OA reaction. “Obviously too defensive. I’ll just ask you a simple question and then you’ll have the answers right away.”
“I’m sorry. Oh, okay, what’s that simple question of yours? You’re making me nervous.” he shrugged and went back to leaning back in the chair.
“In … Do you think I’m just relying on Seymour?” I barely sniffed and played with my hands.
“Do you want me to answer that question of yours? Yours was real and unadulterated plastic?” he mocked me.
I nodded and took a deep breath.
“In my own point of view, yes.” he answered directly so my eyes widened. “It’s not plastic, huh? I know in myself that Kuya was hopeful because he’s too determined to woo you. It looks like he thought you’d answer him. How come, you’re giving a motive, girl. It’s like that You know, if you don’t love someone, don’t show a motive for him to love you. That’s how it was. ” he shook his head so I swallowed.
“If I stop him from flirting, I’ll hurt him, Darlyn. What’s that? He just wasted the few years he flirted with me because I cursed him?” kunot noo kong sabi.
He turned to me. “Rather than relying on him for nothing, Andrea. You know, I love that Kuya of mine, even if it’s not obvious because I always shout at him. So please, if you can’t love Kuya, tell him the truth. That you don’t love him and Ivan was still the one you love … “he said seriously.
“You must have made a mistake in the last part of what you said.” I struggled ostensibly to reduce the tension between us. “You’re right. I should tell Seymour the truth that I can no longer love others.”
“Yeah. That’s right. Do that, just push.” he said reluctantly and turned a blind eye.
