Chapter 99: Chapter 99
Dred's point of view
I was waiting for someone at this restaurant that hosts private meetings; more of a Japanese type of door and a room with no chairs and a table with a little stand. I was just looking around and it seemed like he was prepared for it, like he planned this all along because there were foods that came to the room as soon as I entered the room, but it didn't seem appealing because it's embarrassing to eat without the person I'm supposed to meet.
"Excuse me, can I ask if it's okay for us to pick them up later? Because the one I was about to meet wasn't here yet. " I told the lady serving our food.
And she didn't mind me and was placing the food in front of me, so maybe he was already there because he told me he would be late, but the door opened, revealing a man catching his breath and reaching for a glass of water that was placed in front of me.
I was just looking at him, unsure how I would feel.
"How are you these days?" he asked me.
"I'm okay, Blade. How's your business?" I asked him.
----
They both ended up eating before they spoke about the matter of why we were here. Dred was still thinking about Alessia's current state. Dred couldn't figure out why he couldn't just break up in an easy way. Dred can't and won't take what he's saying or doing. Of course, Dred cares. He just has to finish it to conduct what his plan is and take into consideration that none of this ever happened.
"Excuse me? Are you alright?" Blade asked, and I just chuckled softly.
"Yes, sorry. My head was elsewhere, but what's your reason for meeting me? I'm sure your secretary did a lot of redo's on your schedule just to squezz this. Is there a problem? " I asked him.
I was still surprised; I didn't know if this was the true path to freedom or if it was another way to serve death to my own soul. Blade placed his utensils where they were placed and finished his food in his mouth.
"I conducted a DNA test on Brazie." He said, and I was listening attentively. "And is what you said certain? Did Kycine have a boyfriend when she got here? How come you saw her during our business outing and she didn't know you? " Blade asked.
"She doesn't know me and doesn't want to know or care, which are two different things," I told him as I sipped the wine from the glass in my hand.
"Yes, I'm certain and here." I said to Blade as I placed a picture in front of him.
Blade was just looking at me, and I was the same with him, still confused but calm, because I'm tired of seeing Alessia having a hard time, so I need to put an end to this.
"That's Eugene. I met him by that name without a last name. "
"We are friends, and he's a great one too."
"One night when we decided to meet up because he would introduce us to his wife, that's when I met Kycine."
Blade was just listening to what Dred was saying and was looking at the picture confused.
"Wife? What do you mean? " Blade asked me
And I was just shutting my eyes. I don't know if sharing this will cost me my life, but I needed to. I’d lived my life to the fullest when I met Alessia, and that was more than enough for me.
"Yes, and in the States, her name is Emellie." I said to him, "That's why I didn't take notice of her when our paths met on the beach at your outing." I added
"Did your path really meet or plan it before hand?" He asked me, and I sighed.
Is this man for real? Is that still important to him? That was like three years ago.
"Does that matter? Okay, if it's for your own peace, yes. It was a planned encounter. Because I want to win Alessia over you. " I said to Blade while I was eating the chocolate pudding.
"Aren't we married that time, Dred? Where do you find the gut to do that? " He said to me, and as I looked at him, he was really furious.
I scratched my neck and wondered if it would be safe to return Alessia to him in his state. Blade looked like he was out of his right mind. I shook my head and said
"Contraception marriage? That doesn't seem to be counted. " I said
"Take care of Alessia and don't ever lose her again."
"Because if you do, I won't hesitate to take her back from you, Blade Armstrong." I said to him emphatically
"If you will conduct a professional man to learn about Eugene, think twice. This man, he wouldn't second guess on killing everyone that would want to know, especially if it's about him. " I told him
"Well, that will be easy," he said, but I cut him off.
"If that person you hire doesn't happen to go home after what you ordered him to do, you should conduct a search party for him, because he'll be dead somewhere." I told him
Blade felt the chills and wasn't sure if he would believe the man in front of him, because how could Kycine still manage to be on that guy's side with all the danger that was happening?
"If you are certain that there was really nothing happened between you and Kycine, then why didn't you conduct a DNA test while your child was young?" I asked him
"I don't know, because Kycine showed me a video and it was really me, but I don't know when it happened." Blade said, and I just smirked.
"That picture in front of you was captured before Kycine came back here." I told him
"So? Did he copy someone else's face?" He asked me
"Yes."
"And that person was you." I told him
And Blade was terrified. That's how it explains those videos; they've done something, then Dred smirked.
"What a nice game, Kycine. What a nice game. "
"I must take my leave." I said to him and gathered my things. "Please don't tell anyone about this." I told Blade
And as I opened the door, I was flashed by Alessia, who was bragging inside, and stopped in front of the man who was inside with me. Alessia scoffed and laughed while she was crying. I felt sick and was trying to comfort her by holding her arm.
"Is this the reason that you've been acting like a jerk towards me, Dred?"
"Because this fool ordered you?" Alessia shouted.
And I was lost for words. Alessia left us with her friends, and I was lost myself, but I stopped her before she could enter her car, but she shoved it and said
"Don't touch me, I'm disgusted by you." She said to me.
And I ended up kissing her while tears rolled down my face, taking every hit she was giving my body and the cries that she had been holding for a few days. We stayed like that until she stayed calm, but I felt that she was very distant from me.
"If you're going to explain everything to me.." she said
"Then explain it to me while..."
"Filling me." Alessia said
