Dirty Affairs novel Chapter 60

The sound of a ringing phone distracted Xavier. He turned to know where the ringing sound was coming from when he saw one of his guards running towards him with a phone in his hands. 

"Boss, your phone…" said the guard as he handed it over to Xavier. Xavier wondered who would be calling and disturbing his precious moment. He curiously glanced at his phone screen and saw who the caller was. He glanced at it for a few minutes with a heart pouring smile before he finally and cheerfully picked up the call.

On the phone…

"Hey, I'm glad you called." Said Xavier as he took a few steps forward, walking towards different directions of the room.

"I'm cool… what's the update?" The caller questioned.

"I was able to capture his secret lover." Xavier said, laughing wickedly.

The caller's heart broke the moment she heard Xavier's statement. The thought of how Ace maltreated her and how he kept rejecting her served her as emotional energy to deal with whoever is Ace's supposed secret lover.

"Secret lover?" She asked curiously.

"Yeah, you can come see for yourself." Xavier replied.

"You took her to our territory?" She asked and Xavier gave a positive response of "yes."

"I'll be right there." She replied.

"I'll be expecting you. I'm sure Ace would love this." Xavier said before he ended the call. He turned and looked back at Sophia who was still seated where she had been tied up. He smirked as he walked out.

An hour has already gone by. Sophia was wallowing in her dream Land when she heard the sound of an opening door. Her sleepy eyes turned open. She looked at the place where the sound came from and saw who she least expected.

"Michelle?!!" She exclaimed and the lady was also surprised when she saw that Sophia was the person who Xavier was talking to. 

Michelle's heart couldn't bear the scene as she walked out immediately and shut the door. Xavier on the other hand was surprised and wasn't understanding a thing. He immediately walked out of the room to meet with Michelle.

"Is she the one?" Michelle asked and Xavier nodded. 

"Yes, she is? What's wrong?" He asked, hoping to get an answer.

The memory of how Michelle met Sophia popped in and out of her head. The sisterly love she had for Sophia couldn't stop making her feel guilt but then, she remembered Ace. She took Ace from her and that was a sin too big to forgive. The moment she remembered that, the heartless woman in her showed up.

"Nothing is wrong." She replied and pushed the door open as she walked in. With no hint of a smile, she stood in front of Sophia whose eyes were still weary.

"Sister…" Sophia called but Michelle didn't act like she recognized her.

 "Please, help…" she sobbed.

"I can see Xavier did his work because there are so many marks on your body." She told Sophia and Sophia looked at them as she continued to sob.

"What are you saying, sister?" She asked as her brain processed Michelle's statement. At this point, she knew Michelle was also against her. 

"I still can't believe you are also behind this… " said Sophia.

"You really have got so many nerves. do you think you are so important? Who the hell are you?." She asked angrily and walked to her front.

"Do you really think I will save you? I would rather let you die even if you are in danger." Michelle said, gazing bitterly into Sophia's eyes.

Sophia looked surprised. She couldn't understand what had come over the darling and good hearted Michelle. She continued to wonder if she had wrong Michelle but none she could remember.

"Sis, I'm sorry if I did anything wrong… I don't even know what I did…" but, I'm sorry sis.

"I actually do not know what Ace saw in you. Tell me what is good about you… Who are you? I have money, beauty, everything a man would want in a woman. You have got nothing to offer him. You are just so useless and yet he still chose you over me. Michelle yelled angrily and Sophia could do nothing but sob.

"I don't understand what is going on."  Sophia said like she was lost.

"Are you the one that made Xavier kidnap me?" Sophia asked.
