Arvin stared at her close and gave Angela a Kabedon. "Come on Angela, you know you hold my romantic allegiance. Did I say I even liked Nita? No. It won"t happen again. In fact, you can be in charge of who I live with from now on, alright?"
Soon, the elevator door pinged open and they walked out to her apartment.
Angela jolted in first and tried to shut the door on Arvin.
But nothing could resist his mammoth strength, so he wedged the door and flung it open effortlessly and came in at last.
He removed his shoes and clasped her hands on the couch as they talked. "Did Nita tell you this? Is that how you found out?"
"That isn"t the point! You had s.e.x with her." Angela looked at him with scorn and whipped her hands free.
If he didn"t deny it, she would steel her resolve and send him packing.
Arvin said reluctantly, "I said it was an accident..."
"So, that means you did have s.e.x?" Angela tried to control her emotion.
Meanwhile, Arvin remained silent.
Angela stood up suddenly and pushed him out of her apartment, "Get out! Get out!" Their relationship had already been contaminated with complications because of the whole Rosa thing but now there was a third party! When she thought of Arvin"s stone grey slab of a body pounding the deliquescent flesh of Nita it sent a shiver down her spine.
And if it was an accident, what did the roofied s.e.x with Angela mean besides a black-out in memory? Was that also an accident? Because to Angela it had meant a lot.
Anyway, Arvin found himself on the threshold of Angela"s apartment begging for mercy. She slammed the door on him.
Arvin felt fretful and leaned one hand flat on the wide door. After a long while, he called Kent, "Can the monitoring be repaired?"
"Yes, but it might take some time..."
"How long?"
"About one week!"
"One week?" That was way too long for Arvin! He was unwilling to wait even one day! It had to be completed tonight. "You fool. Make contact with Purple Charm and repair the monitoring at any price." Arvin was suspicious of the whole event. The monitoring of that day when he had s.e.x was broken and all
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with s.e.x. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. "As long as I"m alive, I"m still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...
to slap others no matter what happened."
"Mum, I don"t want to do this. Let the two girls solve their own problems!" Arvin didn"t want to hear Nita"s name being mentioned when he was trying to relax.
"Well, if Angela were slapped by Nita, what would you do? Will you let it go the way you"re doing now?"
"... Mum, " he responded coldly, "You already know my answer! Good night!" Then, he hung up the phone and didn"t give Teresa the chance to chip in one of her nosy one-liners.
Arvin looked at his phone and pictured Angela"s tender, joyous visage.
He cared about her, and called Angela, but he couldn"t get through to her.
He sighed, "Okay, it will be better to let her have a little peace. Just a little. G.o.d knows I have urges I need to fulfill. I can make decisions only when I find out the truth."
So, he left his phone on the table and went to the bathroom to relax.
Next morning, Angela was almost late for work because of her sleeplessness the night before. So, she rushed to the research and development department in a hurry.
Although she was not in the charge of anyone, she was introduced to the faculty by Arvin and didn"t want to bring him any troubles.
When she changed her coat in the changing room, a woman in white coat, mask and hat stood barring her way. Angela didn"t notice who it was because of her bad mood. So, she moved to the other side to let the woman pa.s.s.
