“What was that for??” He said as he rubbed his cheek in shock.
“Why did you do that?” She asked back, ignoring his question.
“Did my actions warrant you to hit me that way??” Andrew was slowly starting to get angry.
He was a person with a big ego so hitting him was a sign of disrespect, especially if it came from a woman. Another reason he was mad was because of the way Catherine and Hector treated him. He couldn’t pour his anger on them both so the only thing he could do was direct it at Amara.
“You’ve ruined everything!!!” Amara screamed at him angrily, ignoring his hateful gaze. She wasn’t one to back down from a fight easily especially if the person gets in her way.
“I did??” Amdrew wanted to play dumb.
“Yes you did!! If you hadn’t shown up in the room at that moment, it wouldn’t have turned out this way! Catherine should have been the one in that room!!!”
“Well, if your plan had been flawless right from the beginning, it wouldn’t have backfired this way.” Andrew spat back, making her scoff.
“Really?? You went there all on your own and you still have the guts to tell me that my plan was flawed??”
“Yes it was. I mean, why was Catherine not in the room like you had planned?? You kept on rambling about like you had everything in control but you didn’t. If Catherine was in there as planned, I wouldn’t have been the one having sex with Matilda!!”
Amara kept quiet immediately he said that. Though she was mad at him, he was making sense. She had earlier told Catherine to wait for her in the restroom when she called but when she went to her, she couldn’t find Catherine there and she was also locked in by someone she didn’t know.
It was like someone knew about their plan and purposely locked her in. Also, when she saw Catherine, she didn’t look like someone that was drugged. She looked really normal. How come??
“You’re quiet now. You’re slowly starting to realise that you aren’t as smart as you think you are, aren’t you??” Andrew said in a taunting manner and that infuriated Amara.
“At least I wasn’t stupid to enter…” Before she could finish her words, he suddenly gripped her harshly on her neck, causing a blockage in her airflow.
“What did you just say to me??” He asked, anger surging through his veins as his grip on her neck tightened.
His eyes had turned into a very dark one like a was an animal, staring at his prey. Amara’s face grew red as she was finding it really hard to breath. She used all of her strength and landed a strong blow on his face, sending him tumbling to the floor.
She held her neck as she tried to steady her breath. Within minutes, Andrew who was on the floor and wincing in pain was already back on his feet.
“You dared to hit me?? Again??” He asked in both pain and fury as he held his bruised face.
“Yes I did and I’ll do it again amd again if you ever bother to lay your hand on me again!! You think I’ll stand down and let you treat me like trash??”
Andrew chuckled softly and took slow predatory steps towards her. “What are you going to do if I hit you?” He asked.
Amara didn’t show any hint of fear nor did she move away even though he was getting impossibly close to her. She stood her ground and looked up to match his gaze.
“Try me and see what will happen.”
Andrew smirked, wrapped his hands around her neck and forcefully pressed his lips against hers. Amara immediately pushed him away and slapped him really hard on his cheek, causing a small cut on his lips.
Andrew scoffed as the metallic taste of his blood filled his mouth when he licked his lips. He stared at her with a sadistic look written all over his face and he pressed his lips harder on hers again.
She tried to push him away but he wouldn’t let her go. He kept kissing her forcefully till she finally succumbed to him and kissed him back with equal ferocity. He lifted her up and took her to the bed.
He went ahead to rip her clothes off her body making her bare in front of him. He took off his trousers and briefs in one swift move and plunged deep into her at once.
Her loud moans filled the room as he kept on moving harder and deeper inside her.
My face scrunched up in disgust as I watched through my laptop how the air in the room changed. They were at each other’s throats earlier but now, they were acting like they couldn’t get enough of each other.
Watching them, I felt so irritated so I was about to turn off my laptop when I suddenly heard something from Amara.
“Don’t you think that something about Catherine feels kinda weird?” She asked and Andrew stopped moving immediately.
“Why would you mention that bitch’s name at this very moment?” He asked in anger, mixed with frustration making me scoff.
“I mean, I thought about it, she’s been acting really weird lately.” Amara said.
“Amara, this isn’t the time to be talking about this. You’re killing the mood.” Amdrew complained.
“I’m sorry but it just kept bothering me. Her reaction to everything that happened today feels off.”
“How were you expecting her to react when she caught her husband cheating on her?”
“Not that. The drugs I gave her, she had no reaction to it. I mean, it was supposed at least show that she was drugged.” Amara said.
“You told me before that the drug wears off quickly. Maybe it did.”
“So why wasn’t she in the restroom anymore? She told me that she was there.”
“You don’t expect her to still be there when the drugs had already worn off and she’s also the host to the party. She probably left when her eyes were already clear so she wouldn’t disappoint her father.”
“Wait.. why are you suddenly defending her? Weren’t you the one complaining about how much she has changed??” Amara asked as he raised her brows in suspicious.
“Yeah, I wasn’t suspicious earlier but after today’s event, I’m very sure that she wasn’t faking anything.”
“How so??”
“Didn’t you see how she looked when she saw me in that spot with Matilda? She was obviously hurt. If she had planned to expose us, she wouldn’t look hurt, instead she would be really happy simec she got us, me rather at the spot.”
“Also, her actions afterwards shows the pain of someone that feels betrayed. She also didn’t ask her father to throw me out so that means she’s still in love with me.” He said with a smug look on.
“You must be so proud of your self.” Amara said in jealousy as she pushed Andrew off of her.
“Wait.. don’t go.” He said as he held her back so as to stop her from walking away.
“Just think about it, if she’s still in love with me, I would be able to win her back and the plan would be back in motion. Don’t you want it to?”
“I do.. I do but are you sure that’s all you’re doing?”
“Of course. The only thing I care about in this life is you..” He kissed her passionately.
“… and the riches I am to get from this wretched family.” He added as he resumed his position on top of her.
“I hope you won’t have a change of mind later on.” Amara said.
“Don’t worry about that. I won’t, just trust me on this and follow my lead.” Andrew muttered and plunged back inside of her.
I shut my laptop and took in a deep breath. It seemed like Amara’s starting to get suspicious. I need to buckle up and increase my acting skills and at the same time, I also need that ladder.
I was still deep in my thoughts when I heard my phone ringing. I picked it up and a smile appeared on my face when I saw the name flashing on the screen.
“Speaking of the devil.”
