The Show Has Ended
Kelly’s POV
…be my partner in bed again.”
Klay is here inside Amanda’s room and what? Bed partners?
I couldn’t move. I only heard those words but I felt like my world crumbled up and started falling. They had a past? They’re disgusting!
“What made you think that you can get me through your wicked ways, Amanda? May I remind you that I’m Klay Carver. You can never hold me in your little dirty hands.”
“Come on, Klay. You know that I’m your only ally in this houser Once Kelly finds out what you have been planning all along…she will leave you.”
My forehead creased. He’s planning something?
I quickly bid myself and rested my back against the wall, I gripped the documents in my hands tight as I pressed my lips together, restraining myself from attacking the two people inside who had wicked plans from the very beginning.
Klay…I trusted you.
“Shut up, bitch! Dare to intervene with my relationship with Kelly or I will not think twice to shoot you between your eyes. You know me. I’m not an all–threat man.”
I sucked my breath. Of course, he can do that. He has mafia blood in his system anyway.
“Why are you being like this just because of that woman, Klay? Did you really fall for her? Are you Insane? She’s just a plain woman while I can give you everything. I can withstand your fetishes! I can satisfy you, Why settle for a woman who’s already fcked by another man-
I heard Amanda groaning after her words were cut off. I don’t know what’s happening but what I heard awakened fear in my heart.
“Look who’s talking.” Klay said devilishly. “You think you’re clean and better than her? Did you know why I liked her? That’s because she’s not like you. Listen here, Amanda. I won’t come back to you. Even if you shed blood here, I won’t. The reason why you’re still here is to help me execute my plans. You understand?”
I heard Amanda coughing and I also heard footsteps coming. I wanted to run but I couldn’t. My legs were trembling. Both from fear, pain and disappointment. Why did I even trust him?
“What if I tell her that you’re stealing all her father’s wealth? What if I tell her that you’re the reason why her father’s company got bankrupt? Huh? What will you do? You’ll kill me? Hahaha! That’s the reason why I put his bank money and even this house in my name, Klay. Because I need something that can keep me alive and I know you won’t be able to kill me because of those assets. I’m just using my brain. Unlike you who’s dumb enough to let your stupid feelings control you and your emotions.”
I couldn’t hear Klay’s voice and that’s when I understood everything. Then, everything’s all because of their plan? This is why my dad warned me. This is why my dad was so angry when he caught me and Klay kissing. This is why he’s begging me to run away to the point that he cried in my arms.
It was not only because of Amanda. Klay was involved in this and this is beyond painful. I trusted another traitor. I let him into my life. I gave my heart to him. I even fell in love with him blindly. How could I be so stupid?
“Your plans won’t go smoothly like this without me, Klay You need my help. Just admit that.”
I balled my fists and forced myself to calm down. I need to leave. I’ve had enough of this stupid game. Just when I’m about to run for my dear life and heart, Klay stepped out of the room and his eyes landed
on me.
I flinched, scared but I won’t let him see my fears. His sharp eyes immediately softened and worry flickered in it after realizing that I heard everything they talked about inside.
“Kelly…”
I forced a bitter smile as tears pooled in the corner of my eyes. “You surprised me.”
He shook his head and tried to touch me but I took a step back, looking at him with despise.
“Kelly, listen to me. I can explain.”
I laughed sarcastically and wiped the tears that rolled down my cheeks. I lifted my chin and looked at him with nothing but anger and disgust.
“You don’t need to explain. I already heard everything. You disgust me.”
I turned my back and attempted to leave but he grabbed my arm and pulled me towards his body. He wrapped his arms around me, hugging me so tight as I struggled to free myself from his embrace.
“Let me go, Klay! Get your filthy hands off of me!”
“No, Kelly. You have to listen to me. I have my reasons. You just have to listen and understand me-
“I don’t need your stupid reasons, Klay! Let me go!”
“No!” He said and hugged me even tighter. “If I let you go now, you’ll leave me.”
I sobbed not because of what he said but because of so much anger and frustration.
“Of course, I’ll leave you! What do you expect me to do, huh? Listen to you after everything?”
“Kelly, please…. I love you-”
“THAT’S BULLSHIT!” I screamed and pushed him. I had a hard time pushing him but I successfully did.
He looked at me with his eyes begging. I wiped my tears again and looked him in the eyes. “You love me? That’s just part of the lies you created for your evil plans.”
“No, Kelly!” He tried to touch me again but I took another step backwards. “Please, listen to me. I love you. I really do. I admit I was just planning to use you to torment your father but I fell in love with you. For real.”
I shook my head painfully. “If you really love me you won’t hurt me like this, Klay.”
I saw tears in the corner of my eyes but I don’t know if I can still believe that. He can easily fake his words, he can do that with his emotions.
“But that’s the truth…” he said slowly as if he lost his strength.
