Liam's pov
I paced around the house with a heavy heart, knowing i had messed up and doubting if Jasmine would ever forgive me.
The whole house felt empty without her. It took losing her to realize how much i needed her.
"Liam! Where the fuck are you?" Alex yelled angrily, slamming my door shut. "What is wrong?" I asked as i walked towards him.
He grabbed my shirt, his eyes blazing with anger. "How dare you? How dare you have sex with Rachel?" He spat.
"You can't understand, Alex," I pushed him off me and he grabbed my arm roughly.
"I asked Rachel, and she told me nothing happened between you two. Jasmine came to my house, and said you confessed to having sex with Rachel," he said angrily.
"Since when did you and Rachel start having a conversation?" I asked, ignoring what he said.
"That's not the main point!" He yelled at me. "This is none of your concern, Alex. Just get the fuck out of my house," I said.
"I won't get out. You think this world revolves around you. You think you can have everything huh? I swear, you will regret this," he threatened.
"What are you even saying?" I asked, confused.
"Stop acting innocent, Liam. You've always known that i have feelings for Rachel yet you went ahead to date her. Now you are sleeping with her again and my sister. I hate you," he yelled.
The more he talked, the more confused I become. Does this mean he has been sleeping with Rachel behind my back?
"Did you know about Rachel's disappearance on our wedding day?" I asked, and he nodded.
"I knew, and it was all our plan to make you suffer. She has been dating me even when you two were together," he said with a smirk on his face.
I felt betrayed and hurt at his confession. I didn't expect my best friend to betray me this way.
"You fucking bastard!" I yelled and hit him in his face. He hit me back, and it turned into a big fight. I was ready to kill him for hurting me and pretending to love me.
"Stop this! Are you trying to kill yourselves?" Rachel yelled and we separated. My nose and knuckles were bloody likewise his face.
"Rachel, what are you doing here?" Alex asked her, and she shrugged. "Get the fuck out of my house, Rachel!" I ordered her.
She walked closer to me with a sly smirk on her face. She placed her hand on my chest, and I slapped it away.
"Why are you so angry, love?" She asked. Alex grabbed her and pulled her closer to him.
"What are you doing?" She whispered to him with a frown on her face.
"He knows now, there's no need to pretend," he said.
Rachel's jaw dropped open, my head spinning and my heart was beating heavily.
"Baby, it's not what you think," she said to me.
"Get out before I call the police. I don't want to ever see you again! The both of you, leave now!" I yelled.
"Let's go," Alex said and left with Rachel. I sat on the floor and cried uncontrollably. The betrayal hit me deep, the woman i once loved was with my best friend.
I was surrounded by enemies and had pushed the only person who truly cared about me away. Jasmine loved me despite all i had done to her and, now she's gone.
I cleaned myself up, grabbed my keys and drove to a bar. I drank until i couldn't feel myself anymore, I felt like dying at this point.
Next day
I woke up with my head banging and my body weak. I struggled out of bed to freshen up and left for my office.
"Good morning Mr west," my receptionist said with a big smile on her face as i walked in.
"If any one asks after me, tell them I'm not in the office," I ordered.
"Okay boss," she said.
I sat in my office chair with a sigh. My eyes closed voluntarily, and all i saw was Jasmine's beautiful face. The only person who mattered to me now.
"Hey baby boy," I heard a familiar voice from my sleep and I groaned.
"Rachel, what the fuck are you doing here? I thought i told Liya not to let you in" I snapped at her.
"I'm here to apologise to you. What happened between Alex and me was just a fling, baby," she said, and i rolled my eyes.
"Shut up, i don't want to hear any of your lies. Just leave my office," I said. She pouted and walked towards me.
"You can't deny what you feel for me, baby," she whispered. I grabbed her roughly on her arm and pulled her towards the door.
"You don't want to forgive me right? I'm coming for you the hard way," she threatened.
I slammed the door the door shut behind her and leaned against it, trying to catch my breath.
I never knew she was this sneaky. She was messing with me and it was starting to drive me crazy.
I called my receptionist into my office. "Liya, what did I tell you this morning?" I asked coldly.
"You told me not to let anyone in," she replied. "Then, why did you let that woman into my office?" I demanded.
"She said she is your wife, sir. I had to let her in, she threatened to fire me if I didn't," she explained and I sighed.
"She is not my wife, liya. My wife is Jasmine and that's the only person you should allow in here. Tell the security not to let that woman in here anymore," I ordered. "Yes boss," she replied.
"You can go now," I said and she hesitated. I raised a curious brow and her face held worry.
"Boss, you don't look okay. Is everything alright with you? Everything has been strange since you came back from your honey moon. You are not the cheerful man I used to know," she expressed how she felt.
"Thank you for your care, liya. I will be alright," I assured her and she nodded. I watched her leave and immediately the door opened again.
Jasmine was standing right in front of me. I was shocked to see her in front of me. Without thinking, I rushed towards her and gave her a hug.
