Chapter 16 The Sad Reality
Nalzen
Here we are, going home. But I don’t know where? I don’t have a home anymore, And I don’t have money! And Aaron is right here beside me saying that he won’t leave me. It’s so nice of him that I wanted to cry again.
No! This time I will not cry again.
“What are you thinking?” Aaron asked.
I sighed and took a deep breath.
“Thinking about everything that happened. I’m sad but I’m also glad that you are here beside me Aaron.” I called out his name.
Aaron stop the car and kiss me. He always likes to stop the car whenever he will like to kiss me.
And we shared a heated, passionate kiss.
“I told you don’t cry again. And I’m always here, okay?” She caressed my hair and face.
“Okay, I’m not crying. Let’s go, we still have our clothes on our Mansion.” I assure him that I’m okay by giving him my sweetest smile.
But how long? That he is always by my side…
I said I will not cry. So I throw away those negative thoughts in my mind.
We finally arrived at our Mansion and it was very noisy inside. What is happening in here?
Aaron and I went inside and many people are walking in and out. They are busy decorating the whole Mansion and the garden.
It’s a wedding theme. Who will get married?
Then my question was answered when Nica appear out of nowhere.
She’s different from before. She looks sophisticated and glamorous. She’s shining because of the pieces of jewelry all over her body.
I wanted to laugh but I control myself.
“So, this is the life that you wanted all your life? I ask sarcastically.
She just raise her left eyebrow and smirked at me.
“And what about you? Is this the life that you wanted with your strip dancer husband?” He asks laughing.
He is insulting Aaron again. She wanted my slap that much huh. But Aaron stop me.
“Don’t wifey, she’s not worthy of your strength. Her face is too rough for your smooth hand.” Aaron said while looking at Nica with disdain.
Nica becomes angry upon hearing Aaron’s insult.
“Guards! Get these two beggars out of my house.” She shouted.
And Nalzen’s blood boils, hearing what she said. Her house?
“No need for that gold digger! ” Aaron chimed in.
I’m trying to control myself not to cause trouble again. Afraid if Nica sues us in court, I don’t have money anymore and I don’t want to trouble Aaron more as he is very good to me.
“We are just here to get our clothes and other things, “I tell her calmly.
“Oh, your dirty clothes and things are already at the old stock room at the back. Feel free to go and get those filthy things out.” She said disgustedly while looking at me from head to foot.
And Aaron’s hand, form into a ball. I know that he is angry so I hold him.
“It’s okay hubby, Let’s go get our things,” I said calmly. And thank God he releases his hand.
But Aaron is still angry. He stops walking and calls Nica.
“Hey, Nica Santillan! Remember this day, because this is the last day that you will be wearing that make-up yours as long that jewelry and clothes. Enjoy this day because soon you will be poor as a rat.” Aaron Sadi seriously.
He is really angry! His looks are very serious and dominating.
Nica just laughs at him and gives him the f*uck you sign.
“You’re dreaming strip dancer boy haha.” She shouted laughing.
Our clothes and other things are put in a dirty stockroom. It smells bad and is full of dirt.
“Don’t touch it!” Aaron shouted. He is still mad.
While I lose all my strength to get angry again. And I saw my parents’ wedding picture in-between the dirty piles of our clothes.
I dig it so that I can save just the picture of them.
And Aaron just let me do it. I’m glad that he understands me.
He gives me his handkerchief and I wipe on my parents’ picture frame. Although I said that I will not cry but I can’t!
I am facing my parents right now.
The famous Nalzen Villarreal is now as poor as a rat. Her Glamorous lifestyle has ended. And that is the sad reality.
I regret all my life for neglecting my parents while they are still alive.
Those party people who are always by my side and dancing with me are all gone.
I have nothing left except the memories of the good and bad decisions of my life that I created.
Aaron hug me at the back. I need his warm body right now to comfort me. Thankful that he did not leave me. I have someone to cry on.
“Stop it wifey, Everything will be alright soon. Like what I’m always saying to you. That I’m always here, to protect and to take care of you.” Then he intertwined our fingers, with him still hugging my waist.
I take one last glimpse of our Mansion. Where my childhood memories are there with my parents. Now was owned by heartless unscrupulous people.
We ride again in the car. And this time I look around. And realized that it was very expensive! A limited-edition one.
Just where the hell did Aaron borrow this kind of car?
Maybe it’s Arthur’s car. He looks super-rich. Just wondering why he’s giving Aaron special attention.
Whatever it is, it’s Arthur’s decision and I have no time as of now to think about this expensive car.
“Hubby, where are we going?”I asked curiously.
“To our new home.” He answered smiling.
“Seriously? I know that you are teasing me again.” I said laughing.
“Wifey, can’t you see that I’m serious?” He asks.
Then he is right. Aaron’s face is different from the loving and caring Aaron who always hugs and kisses me.
This one is like an Alpha wolf who is ready to tear you apart if you commit mistakes. A domineering one. It’s like he is having a split personality.
“Okay, but what kind of home is this? Well, it’s okay to me whatever it is as long as it is clean.” I said shyly.
“I’m sure you will love it.” He said excitedly.
“Okay, you make me excited and curious,” I answer smiling.
We drive for a few minutes then we left. And we stop at a very big Palace look Mansion.
Or it’s a real Palace? It’s so big! And beautiful.
“Aaron, why we are here?” I asked confused.
“Welcome to our new home!” He said while gesturing his hand welcoming me to come inside.
“You’re kidding! This is a Palace! Who is the owner of this?” I ask laughing.
“You…” He answered seriously.
I look into his eyes and he is telling the truth. But just where does he get this mansion palace-like house?
“Okay, but where did you get that money to buy this beautiful mansion? Wait… Did you do something bad?” I ask suspiciously.
Then he laughed loudly.
He’s crazy! But what if he did something bad?
“Don’t laugh hubby, tell me the truth, or else I will not accept this house if it came from a bad did,” I told him and this time, I’m serious.
He stops laughing and looks at me seriously.
“It’s our house wifey, and please give me time. I will tell you soon about this house. As of now, let’s go inside and check the bed. It’s really beautiful. ” He whispers in my ear.
He is tempting me again!
He carried me inside the house bridal style. It’s like we’re having our honeymoon.
Naughty Aaron.
And we went inside. It’s very big and pretty! But I will explore it later.
Aaron is carrying me and it’s l difficult for me to look at.
He open the bedroom door and a unique modern design with a twist of old-era furniture greeted my eyes.
The bed is so big too.
Aaron drop me at the bed and he jumps on top of me.
And we kiss again. The bed is smooth. We are in the middle of our kissing scene when my phone suddenly rings.
It’s Nathan!
I push Aaron a little and accepted the call.
“Hello Dear, how are you?” Nathan asks excitedly.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
But I can’t find excitement within me.
“I’m okay Dear, how about you?” I ask concern is written on my face.
“I’m doing good. I call to tell you that Nica invited me on her wedding day. How come that we djd8 knew about Nica and your Uncle Alberto, I just can’t believe it!” He said laughing.
And so I laugh too. But mine is fake.
“Yeah, they are secretly in love that no one knows. So, will you attend their wedding?” I ask him.
Because I will never attend their wedding ceremony.
“Oh, I’m sorry Dear. I’m busy in here you know that our business just recovered recently. There’s a lot of work to be done.” He explains.
And I understand him.
“It’s okay, you should take a rest too.” I reminded him. He is always working wondering if he is eating right.
“Thanks, Dear, We will meet soon okay. I miss you…” He said sweetly.
And I don’t know how to reply as I’m seeing Aaron’s face turns sour.
