Chapter 112

Love

I was mad as I made my way to the country club. David was in the lounge fear the bar, addressing a crowd of socialites. He was talking about the engagement and how it was. He told them I cried in happiness and how much I wanted this engagement. He even lied about the carats in the ring. Now that looked at it properly, it couldn’t have been more than a ten carat diamond. “David, you’re now higher than us, my friend. Bagging Love Chasia has taken you to another level,” A man said, raising a glass to David. David nodded in agreement proudly like the others. I chose to listen quietly, not making my presence known immediately.

“Of course. I’m now the richest man in the club. What belongs to my fiancé is mine now,” he laughed. I cringed. Did he want money from me? I thought back to CC’s words. I was hoping she was wrong. David was a Kofflin and one of the richest in the city, as far as I knew.

“You always pick them right. Love Chasia is an heiress to a billion–dollar empire, another tall man added. He was one of David’s good friends, Charlie. He owned a shipping company.

“Of course. Not just anyone can join the Kofflin family. Their net worth needs to be high,” David beamed. I couldn’t believe I was hearing this from David’s lips. Is this how he talked to his friends? Was he pretending with me? I felt like I was looking at a stranger.

“But what about Ellis Carter? They went together to the gala, and they were quite cozy,” a petite lady said. She was from the Sue family, which consisted of real estate moguls.

Oh, I saw them too. The press were going crazy about them,” another added. David laughed.

“Ellis Carter is a loser and will do anything to keep Love. By the way, she told him she was in love with me. It was work–related, and besides, he ordered her to go with him,” he said. David was bashing Ellis as he talked to everyone. It was clear how threatened he was by Ellis that he would say horrible things about him, even without being provoked. I heard one ask about the twins.

You must be threatened, David. We all know how much they were in love and have children together.”

“Oh yes, my lady has twins, and they love me more than Carter. His children don’t even know him, but that is good because he

would be a terrible father,” I almost scoffed at that blatant lie. Ellis was the best father to my children.

Oh, my David. I wonder why you came back with her. Alpha Carter will always be a thorn,” another man sighed.

“Love and I plan to go back to New York soon. Our life there was so fulfilling and just wonderful.”

I couldn’t listen any longer to what he was saying. I glanced at Luis, and he gave me an encouraging nod. I marched down to where he was. David looked shocked to see me but put on a rehearsed smile. There was a slight apprehension in his gaze. I didn’t waste any time before I slapped him across the face. Gaps erupted among the people, and they looked aghast. I glared at the man who was the center of attention.

“Why can’t you respect my wishes, David?!” I flared. He chuckled nervously and held my arm.

‘Babe, what are you doing? Can’t you see we are in public?” he whispered through gritted teeth in my ear. I pushed him from me. He was too close, and I didn’t want any of his scent that was mixed with liquor on me.

Don’t babe me, David!” I snapped, “I didn’t accept the engagement you tricked me into by using your ill mother, and you went to the press to lie about it!”

I was frustrated with his cunning behavior.

Love, we discussed this.”

He was looking around. He didn’t want to be embarrassed after the stories he was saying to his friends.

No, I told you how I felt, but you coinpletely disregarded my feelings. I said it before and will repeat it: I won’t marry you,” I growled. Gaps erupted again, and I faced them.

Oh, fucking shut up, don’t you have anything better to do than day drink?!” I erupted at them. I knew every one of these people here. They lived off their family’s money and titles. They all looked away, but none of them dared to move.

Since you’re here, I’ll say it. I’m not marrying David,” I announced. I needed someone to take it to the press. I was patient with David. I couldn’t believe I even felt bad for leaving him. I turned and started to walk away when he grabbed my elbow,

“Let’s talk in private,” he hissed, his eyes glowing. Luis took steps towards us, his dangerous gaze on David. I shook my head, telling Luis not to do anything. I glared at David and said to him slowly,
