Chasing The Rejected

Chapter 58

-CLARA-

Ever since that day, everything changed for me. The maids began to give me attitude, everyone treated me like an outcast in that house and I couldn’t even set my foot outside without being bombarded by paparazzi.

Apparently, Alicia had uploaded a video of her exposing me to the internet and saying all kinds of nasty things that weren’t even true then at the end, she added the voice recording of Damon asking for a divorce before storming out and everyone instantly made me the bad guy.

This was exactly what i thought would happen and that was why I was so scared.

This just shows how little I mean to everyone” I murmured to myself as the cold shower rained down on me. I tried not to cry since I’ve been crying for days now but the tears came streaming down freely.

After a while, I got out of the shower and sluggishly tied a towel around my chest before stepping out of the bathroom.

then, my phone began to ring and I ran towards it immediately, thinking it was Damon but it wasn’t which left me disappointed.

I’ve been trying to call Damon since that night but he doesn’t pick my call nor reply to my text.

I let out a sigh as I picked up the call and placed it against my ear.

“Hello Aunt Amelia” I murmured and she sighed.

“He still hasp’t spoken to you?” She questioned softly and a lone tear slid downy ch what and I was so grateful for her because despite everything, she was always there for me.

She had been angry when she heard my secret because I hadn’t told her but she quickly understood that I didn’t want to out of fear of losing her.

“No” i murmured softly and she sighed.

“That’s it, I’m coming to take you away from there even if it’s just for a while. You’re being isolated and I don’t like it. We’ll go on a vacation to lighten the mood. I’m sure my husband wouldn’t mind being alone for a week. I don’t like seeing you like this” Aunt Amelia uttered and took a deep breath to stop myself from crying again.

“Okay aunt Amelia. Can we go tomorrow? I’ll really need a break from everything I murmured.

“Of course dear, I’ll have it arranged. Be strong, okay? Pack sexy stuff because you’re beautiful and any man would be happy to have you as their wife” After saying that, we exchanged goodbyes then ended the call.

I was instantly met with silence and reality began to settle back in, I was alone.

Just then, I heard a knock on the front door which made me freeze. When the knocking got frequent, I quickly open it

I was met face to face with Delilah and I couldn’t hide the shock on my face.

“Deli…” Before I could o complete my sentence, she wrapped her arms around me and hugged me tightly.
