CHAPTER 138

Rebecca had gone to Jane’s apartment to talk with her friend and to show her the obscene video. She didn’t want to share it online like Benjamin had because it was a sensitive matter. However, the little stunt Donovan pulled left her baffled. She ended up leaving the place without saying a word to him.

But she had no idea that her best friend had seen her and her boyfriend interacting and totally misunderstood the situation, broke down into tears and dissolved into distress she had never experienced before.

Jane didn’t even go to her apartment but went somewhere on foot, still crying in public, not caring what others thought. She sat on a random bench as sadness soaked her cheeks. The traffic sounds didn’t even matter. Time passed, but her heart didn’t stop beating ferociously. The sweet reminders Donovan left on her body were still there, and they stung a lot more now. The rippling waves of rage burned her from the top of her skin to the depths of her heart. If it was someone else, she might have beaten the crap out of them, but it was her best friend, so she didn’t even want to look at her face anymore. She didn’t know what else to do.

She didn’t want to go home and look at Donovan’s face. As she was struggling greatly, a man and a woman sat on a bench nearby. At first sight, they looked like a couple, but the woman looked somewhat older compared to the man.

“I can’t believe Rye’s Pizzas is closed. I wanted to get you the Extra Special Edition, Charles.” “It’s alright, Sofia. We can come back tomorrow.”

“You are so patient and understanding,” she looked into his eyes. “I’m glad I found you.” She went for a kiss. As they kissed, Jane’s intestines released acids excessively. She recognized Sofia who was an actress. No wonder she was in a relationship with a man who seemed at least five to ten years younger. She couldn’t help but envy her. She just couldn’t sit there anymore. She got up and walked away. Charles and Sofia couldn’t stay there for long, either, as some people gathered around Sofia after recognizing her. So they had to leave in their BMW.

He refused initially, but after they showed him the document proofs of him embezzling sixteen million dollars, and for insuring for dead persons, for false pretenses, for accepting bribes, for breach of trust against a senior manager, and many more, he wanted his lawyer and wanted some time to prove his innocence.
