Beloved Wife Of The God Of War novel Chapter 56

The following day, during break period, Katherine decided to take a stroll outside as she had been tirelessly working since morning. She had barely stepped outside of the medical building when she saw a familiar figure running towards her.

"Hey Coleem," she greeted merrily.

"Hi... How are you?" Coleen asked gleefully.

"I'm fine. Are you on duty?" Katherine asked.

"Yes, but I'm on break. I guess you are on a break too?" Coleen asked.

"Yeah, sure. I was just about to take a walk," Katherine said.

"Them let's take a walk together," Coleen said and Katherine agreed. As the two began to walk, Coleen started a conversation but his phone suddenly chirped. Looking at the screen of the phone, he saw Donna as the caller ID but didn't want to answer the call before Katherine so he hung the call up.

Before he could tuck the phone back to his pocket, Katherine spoke, "did I just see Donna as the caller ID on your phone?" Since both adults were walking closely, Katherine had glanced briefly at his phone.

"Donna?" Coleen pretended to be ignorant of the name she just mentioned.

"Yeah, I saw Donna as the caller who just called you now. Plus why don't you want to answer her call?"

"She's troublesome plus this Donna is my sister," he lied.

Katherine paused walking and turned to him, "your sister?" Katherine brought out her phone and checked Donna's mobile number.

"Please let me compare this number to the 'Donna's' number on your phone," she said.

"But why? It's not the Donna you know. This Donna calling me is my sister," Coleen insisted.

"And that's the reason why you should simply let me compare the numbers. I'm just curious,* Katherine said.

"I'm sorry, I can't let you," he said.

"You can't let me? Then you are hiding something from me," Katherine said.

"Katherine...why would you say that?" Coleen said. Katherine suddenly became suspicious of him. She then remembered the first time Richard kidnapped him, Charles had left him at the restaurant, saying he wants to ease himself. Same Charles lead her to the amunition building and made her wait there while he claimed to have somewhere to quickly go.

Now that she thinks about it thoroughly, she thinks highly of Charles as a suspect.

"You are not really my friend, are you?" Katherine asked with a knowing smirk.

"Katherine, what are you talking about? Let's not make a big deal out of a small matter." Coleen said.

"A small matter?" Katherine shook her head, "Marshall is right!" She mumbled. Derrick had told her a story of how someone suddenly got close to him only to betray him. Indeed, people who appear out of nowhere to suddenly befriend you may have an ulterior motive.

"If you won't let me see the number, our friendship will end here," Katherine said.

"Katherine..." Coleen called. When he saw her serious face, he answered, "fine. The friendship can end. If that's what you want." Then he turned in an attempt to leave.

What if the Donna on his phone was truly different? Then she must have offended him. Katherine suddenly attacked him from behind and before he could turn, she had knocked him down and snatched the phone from him.

Coleen stood at once and tried to snatch the phone back from her but Katherine already picked a race.

She must never find out, Coleen thought to himself and ran after her. They were both generals and have a great fighting skills.

Katherine sped as fast as her legs could take her, she won't stop running until he lost sight of her. As she sped, she entered some parts where there are more of trees than houses. The houses there seems to be occupied by lowest ranking officers.

She suddenly used her leg to hit a small stone and fell. Coleen caught up with her at once and began to struggle to get the phone from her but Katherine held tight on it eventhough her back laid flat to the floor.

"Stop!" A firm and masculine voice suddenly spoke.

Coleen looked up and on seeing Derrick. He immediately pulled back, stood upright and saluted him.

Katherine then stood, her cloth was now dirty but she held tightly onto the phone.

"What's going on?" Derrick asked.

"Marshall, she snatched my phone from me and I'm trying to get it back," Charles reported.

While Charles was reporting, Katherine had quickly checked the 'Donna's' number on his phone and confirmed that it was the same Donna that she knew. Katherine felt heartbroken, she felt betrayed.

"Why won't you give him his phone?" Derrick asked her.

"General Coleen, forgive me. I was just playing with you, I didn't know that you will take it personal," she saluted Coleen and handed over his phone to him. With the look on her eyes, Coleen could tell that she had already found out.

Coleen felt bad, he knew that Katherine would feel betrayed so he spoke, "I was also playing with you. I guess I was a little harsh."

Katherine just looked at him with a painful heart and spoke, "you can leave, General Coleen. And please let's avoid eachother in the future."

"I can explain," Coleen said. He also liked Katherine and didn't want their friendship to end like this. He was extremely sad and depressed when he heard that Katherine was sent to prison for setting the amunition house on fire. He was the one who suggested to the men investigating her case to check the deleted CCTV coverages. If he had known that Donna was planning to put Katherine in a big mess, he would not have agreed to lead Katherine to the amunition house.

"There is nothing to explain, General Coleen. Please leave," Katherine said, she was almost at the verge of breaking down in tears. She liked Charles naturally but he betrayed her. This was how she trusted Donna in the past as her bestfriend only for her to set her up and ruin her.

Coleen turned sadly and walked away.

Katherine looked away and let the tears she had been holding stream down her cheek. "It takes two people to come close to fight." Derrick spoke, he could tell that something had hurt her but he couldn't place what exactly it was but he guessed it could be related to Charles.

Seeing that she was already crying, he handed over his pure white handkerchief to her. She received it and cleaned her tears with it.

"Do you want me to escort you back to the medical building?" He offered.

"No, Marshall. I'll go myself. Thank you," Katherine then began to walk away while Derick only watched.
