Misconception

(SOFIA'S POV)

I watched Jared dial the number, my mind racing with frustration, and I wished for nothing but to snatch the phone. Why was he still bothering with her? Didn't he realize I'd done him a favor by getting rid of her? Shouldn't he be grateful?

I recalled the events that led to this moment. When Jared said he didn't have a reason to divorce Arielle I knew I had to do something. Had to come up with reason. Knowing how suspicious Arielle was of our friendship, I had to make my plan run in that direction to make it more believable.

So the previous day, I managed to take out a document I figured would be important to Jared from his briefcase. And just as I predicted, he returned home at noon to look for it. I went up to his bedroom with a drink I already spiked and offered it to him.

He accepted the drink and a few minutes later, it took its tole on him. I led him to the bed, and stylishly set my phone's camera to film us while straddling him and acting like we were making out.

The idea was to get pictures and videos of us in compromising positions and send them to Arielle, but fortunately, she came back home earlier and walked in on us. I said fortunately because it made things easier for me. There would be no need to do much anymore because she saw things for herself.

Arielle ran off, and after she left, I went downstairs to determine that she left the house. There was no trace of her save for the cooking utensils in the kitchen. I guess she returned home to prepare dinner.

That decided, I returned to the room and tucked Jared into bed because he was already fast asleep. Then I snuck the file into one of the drawers in the room.

I was about leaving to celebrate my victory when his phone rang. Curious, I took it out of his pocket and frowned when I saw it was Arielle calling. What was she calling for? And so I let it ring to a stop, but that persistent bitch, she kept calling, so I busied the call. I was just about putting the phone away when a message from her came in.

needed help. I scoffed, what a dramatic bitch she is. She was obviously telling a lie, and if it was true, she might as well die from the accident. And so I replied to the message, deleted her call history and the message, before putting the phone off. Her time in Jared's life was over. She stole him from me, and it was time that I reclaimed him
