91-Changes In Life

Sarah pov:

(Gentle reminder for readers: it’s still Sarah’s flashback from two years ago.)

I needed to get approval for an important contract, so I marched to Justin’s study and found Keith sitting there.

For the last few days, we rarely saw each other.

“Where is Justin?” I asked keeping my tone neutral. His face still gave my brain those angry vibes.

Liar!

I was not able to forget how he lied to me when all this time he knew, Ashley was with Justin.

“Getting drunk, I guess.” He replied to me without lifting his face up.

“Excuse me! That’s bullsh*it! Why would he do that?” I frowned at him. Justin could be anything but not a weakling. He would never get drunk just like that. He had always been a fighter, not a loser.

“Hah!” He clicked his tongue inside his cheek, “Because he dropped Ashley at the Arguli university…he closed the laptop, “Along with her friends. Offered all of them enough money for starting education, business, and their lives. He might be worried about Ashley but more than that he is crying because he wasted soooo much money on all these girls.” He pouted and rolled his eyes.

No, Keith was being non–serious.

What did he even mean by this? Keith must have gone nuts. This was the most absurd explanation I had heard in my life. Justin would never cry after his money.

“You are again lying, Keith,” I muttered holding the file to my chest.

Keith stood up from his seat and rounded the desk to lean his hip on it.

“Now, none of them will be coming back ever. They all will settle there. Nor that money will be coming back. Congratulations, Sarah. You must be hell happy! Right? You have at last succeeded.” He raised up his hand and squeezed it to make a fist.

“Shut up!” I narrowed my eyes and turned to leave the study when he closed the distance in just a few long strides and reached me. Holding my shoulders, he spun me around and caged me between him and the door.
