The moment she left Delilah came in and sat down where Paisley was.
She wore a black blouse with a black and white vertical stripe skirt and a black chic handbag to complement it all, she ordered herself a drink while I watched her in complete silence.
“Are you here to lecture me about staying away from your husband ?” I asked quietly.
“My husband isn’t the first man you’ve slept with right? ” she looked back at me with a smug grin. “You’ve been sleeping with married men long before my husband, you had an affair with a married man and got pregnant and like the wretched slut you are, you aborted it.” she said. “I didn’t know doctor Henry was married.” I sobbed, my voice breaks into cracks.
“How would you know, you couldn’t keep clear and now he’s dead, his lovely wife is now trying to look after her pregnancy while you are here targeting my husband next.” she said taking a sip from her drink.
“you are pathetic, worthless and stupid you put yourself in a position in which society downgrades you, you have nothing to live and nothing to be known for other than a slut, you’re just a little girl who’s confused and needs money so here.” she pulled out a cheque from her bag and hands it over to me.
“It’s a cheque of 10 billion USD, do whatever you want with it, go into hiding and stay away from my husband, no one can ever have this opportunity I’m giving to you, you can leave right now I’ve arranged everything, start a new life and leave this pathetic one behind.” she said, I looked back at her holding up the cheque and tore it up in front of her.
“I don’t need your money, your stupid offer is worthless I’m not a slut because if I was I would have taken the money and I didn’t sleep with your husband because of money either, if you knew what he did to me you would be afraid of who your husband really is, you don’t even know him.” I said
“And you know him? ” she arched her brows.
“We are both at wrong here, I cheated on my husband with his twin brother and you slept with my husband since he’s still legally married to me, let’s make this right for once, stay away from my husband this is my last warning.” she said quietly picking up her bag and leaves.
I went straight to Paisley’s I couldn’t face Hunter after meeting Delilah, she was laying on her bed but got up to meet me.
“I’m sorry about what I said earlier I was mad about what you did to Alec I was also mad Hunter claimed to love you, I was just jealous about it that Derek never told me he loved me I’m really sorry.” she muttered hugging me tightly. “It doesn’t matter anyway.” she pulled away from the hug and noticed my tears.
“Amirah? I’m sorry I apologize, you can be with Hunter.” she said but I shook my head.
“You’re right he’s married and he probably lied about loving me Paisley and I shouldn’t have anything to do with him.” I cried again as she pulled me into a hug again.
~~~~~~~~
Tonight was the premiere for Paisley’s endorsement, I only attended because I wanted to support her, I’ve been ignoring Hunter for the past few days but I knew I wasn’t going to ignore him during the event.
My plan was to wait out through Paisley’s speech and we both leave, Delilah and Regina walked in Paisley clinged to me pointing at both of them.
“We already are in hell.” she whispered, I scrunched my brows to grasp her meaning.
“What? ” I asked.
“Those two are a match made in hell, when they’re both in the same room something is definitely going to happen and I can bet they’re both after your man.” I looked back at her in a snarl.
“Seriously ?”
“What I did not know about your intimate relationship with Hunter until a few days ago so let me make fun out of it.”
“You’re seriously fucked up.” I hissed at her.
“By the way I need to know, how long was Hunter’s dick is it bigger than Alec, did you give him a blow job by any chance did you guys use condoms, how many times did you you moan.”
“Jesus Christ, Paisley!! ” I exclaimed as she grinned wickedly.
“What? ” she asked while I rolled my eyes at her and walked out on her with my cheeks heated up, I stride over to a corner to get a drink, I looked over the table to see Hunter I nearly choked.
He walks up to me, I tried biting my lip to ignore eye contact but I couldn’t help but look back into his eyes.
“You’re avoiding me? ” he asks but I just froze.
“Did Regina or Delilah threathen you? ” he asked, his eyes trailing on my figure I wore a milky white short gown and my hair was knotted in a messy bun.
“If I said yes will it satisfy your curiosity? ” I said tapping my glass slowly. “Delilah found out about my affair with doctor Henry and it’s all my fault because she might have probably bought it from detective Vincent, it made me think about what I did I don’t want my mistakes to repeat themselves.” I said finally looking back at him in the eyes.
“I want to stay away from you and I don’t want you to end up dead because of me, I’m probably your weak point, I’m vulnerable I can’t protect myself and I put everyone at risk most importantly you.” I said. “Let this be the night I no longer exist to you.” Paisley ran up to me while I was talking to Hunter.
“Amirah, they want me to give my speech now after that we can leave.” she whispered loud enough for Hunter to hear pulling me away from Hunter as we both silently took our seats.
“How was it? ” she whispered a tear slide down my cheek and she wipes it off.
“Terrible.” I whispered while she pats me, she was called up to the stage to give her speech.
She looked back at me with a smile while I gave her a thumbs up.
“Thank you for accepting me, I’ve not really been accepted into many things in my life. Highschool, College and sadly my family I wasn’t acceptable but a few people accepts me the way I am and I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t keep believing or if my Amirah didn’t always nag me, she looks like my mom by the way so I call her mama.” I giggled at her terrible speech, there was a Romanian interpreter who help translate it for those who didn’t speak English.
“Thank you mama, I want you to be happy like you always made me happy, I’m sorry about what I said a few days ago.” she finally said coming down some people got up from their seats and clapped. “finally let’s go.” I whispered over to her. “Not yet, let’s stay for a while and hear Hunter’s speech.” she insisted while I took my seat.
Hunter walked up to the stage looking back at me, I ignored his gaze breathing quietly he was supposed to have a male interpreter but he dismissed him.
“I may not be the best man, I’m cold, I’m ruthless, I’m vile I don’t have a reason to make you stay and I can’t force you to stay but I want you to know no matter how hard you try to get away from me I’ll still come back for you.” everyone was confused so was I, I looked back at Paisley who winked at me.
“What’s happening? ” I whispered into her ears but she denied having any idea what so ever.
“Amirah Rivera please come up to the stage.” I felt my blood run cold, Paisley encourage me locking arms with me as we both walked to the stage, I looked back at Delilah and Regina.
“You got this one camera? ” Paisley whispered to the camera man while he record what Hunter was going to do.
Hunter walked up to my froze figure.
“I know you are scared, I know want the best for me but I want you, even though you deny it I know you want me as bad as I want you right now.” my heart skipped a beat as his lips crashed against mine, my heart fluttered and immediately I answer to the kiss. I felt the crowd gasps until we pulled away from the kiss, everyone was dumbstruck.
From the corner of my eye I saw Delilah growl and walking up the both of us with an angry scwol.
“How dare you cheat on me with her, after everything I’ve done, after everything I sacrificed, after I told you to stay away from him you wouldn’t listen, she’s slept with married men in the past she’s disgusting and a brat.”
“Stop spreading lies Delilah, and I’m aware about her affair with doctor Henry so it changes nothing.” Hunter said.
“I’m still married to you.. ”
“I already filed a divorce in the states while you were busy looking for ends to maneuver the court already out ruled your statement, we’re legally divorced with or without your say under the violation you cheated on me with my twin brother.” Delilah was in a state of shock on hearing the news.
“You can’t do this to me, how is that even possible.” Delilah teared up and I knew it had to be one strings pulled.
“I could show you the papers it’s already stamped.” Hunter said and she looked back at me with hate.
“You think you have one but I will still fight for you in my heart Hunter, I’ll win you back and you will regret ever taking my happiness away from me you little brat.” Delilah left leaving me with Hunter and Paisley, Paisley pushed me up to Hunter we were an inch apart.
“Umh, well Amirah will you be mine? ” Hunter stuttered awkwardly.
“We are in front of a crowd” I answered
“oh shut up say yes and let’s go eat.” Paisley gloated pulling out her phone to record my answer.
“I”…
Delilah’s Pov
I lost everything all because of that stupid bitch, I went up to the top of the building to receive some fresh air, my tears washed down my mascara, I pulled out my napkin wiping away my mascara.
“Tsk Tsk Tsk, Delilah how does it feel to lost everything, your mom, your sister, your reputation, your fathers approval and your happiness.” I turned to see Regina who was smirking. I was at the edge of the building and my hate for her just build up.
“You always thought you could keep Hunter away from me, we used to be so close and everyone was right we are the same person, we are after the same goal, our fathers try to cover up our mistake and at last we both have failed marriages.” she cocked.
“We are not the same, you had a chance to be pregnant and have kids but you threw that away for a man that doesn’t give a damn about you.” I spat at her and she growls.
“He doesn’t give a damn about you too and you resulted to cheating if you knew the reason why Hunter didn’t want to give you kids you would have hold on to him, but you just can’t be satisfied.” she scoffs at me.
“you’re just this little miss perfect following daddy’s orders, you are stupid and worthless and that’s why your fucked up mother died you bitch.” anger coarse through my veins and I pushed her over the edge, she screamed but the atmosphere swallowed her screams before she thud to the floor and broke her neck.
I calmed down a bit and then I realized I killed Regina Hayles.
