Chapter 35: Chapter 35

Adrian POV:-

Shit, shit, shit. How could this happen? Who told him?

After Brother left, I sighed in relief to find no visible bruise on my body. His rage was terrifying me, I don’t know what he did to Evelyn but his possessiveness towards what belongs to him was scary.

But, at least I got saved. I expected him to at least break a bone of mine but thankfully he controlled himself.

How did he come to know about it?

If he found out that I even liked her back, he'd kill me. I knew telling him about my feelings would be the most dangerous choice.

Maybe that's why he sent Evelyn to her home so that she won't see his anger, he knew it would horrify her.

I know he is not gonna calm down that easily especially when it comes to his love life. He wouldn’t bear it.

“Fuck…” Cursing under my breath, I moved back, curling my hands in a fist.

I turned my head and saw Danielle standing there extremely terrified. The truck of realization hit me that Danielle knows everything. She knew everything, she witnessed and if there’s anyone who could be this fatuous, it would be.

“You bitch..” I narrowed my eyes at her, extremely infuriated at her damn audacity to bring the topic murdered way back.

Outraged, I ran towards her. Gasping, She tried to run away but I grabbed her arm harshly and dragged her to my room while she was struggling with tears glistening on her cheeks.

I locked the door behind me and looked at her with a scowl, tightening my grip on her arms.

“How could you, Danielle? I trusted you.” I hissed.

"I-I didn't know this would h-happen," She shuddered in horror, sobbing silently.

"Do you know what you have done?" I snarled, pushing her dangerously close to me. I know Danielle can easily cry or get scared if you provoke her.

And right now, If I go further, she might faint by fear.

"I-I " She trembled as she began to cry badly.

I grabbed her arm and pushed her against the wall and put both hands on her sides. She looked at me petrified, shivering at the proximity, frightened.

"Look at you, how scared you are," I mocked with a hollow smirk.

"Think, Evelyn faced brother's wrath. How scared she would be. You merely witness a fragment of his anger" I whispered huskily. She continued to cry, lowering her head in shame.

"I didn't k-know Brother would be t-this angry." She cried, clearly ashamed of her deed but can it alter what happened.

"You haven't seen his real anger yet. If he was kind with you all doesn’t mean he is. You could have asked me but no, you have always been a stupid, cheater, betrayer, mindless woman." I hissed. Her eyes widened in apprehension as she quivered, guilty when I recalled all her stupid deeds of her life.

"Why do you threaten, Evelyn?" I asked, strictly

"I don't know w-what you are talking a-about." She stuttered. I slammed my hands on the wall. She squeaks in fear at my actions, crying badly, holding the hem of her dress but I had enough of her.

"Don't act innocent. Evelyn was being threatened." I hissed.

"I swear I didn't do it. I just sent those screenshots to my brother. N-nothing else." She said, I lean in and whispered in her ears,

"If you ever tell anyone that I like Evelyn. I'll ruin your life, Danielle. Keep it as a threat, you won’t want me to tell anyone how you cheated on your best friend, do you and how, right?" I threatened her seriously. That is the only way to seal her lips, I should have done it before.

“Adri-”

I got away and looked at her hazel eyes which were filled with dread.

"You know I can do it. So don’t you fucking dare to involve yourself with me anymore." I threatened. She nodded in fear.

"What should I d-do?" She asked.

"None of us can do anything. It all depends on my brother's anger and Evelyn's devotion. He will bring her back eventually when his anger will cool down" I sighed deeply, touching my stinging cheek, he went all out but I think I deserve it.

"Stop crying and quivering," I told Danielle angrily and got away.

She wiped her tears and was about to leave but I held her arm. She gave me a scared look as I sighed and asked,

"How do you know that Evelyn liked me and How did you send those screenshots to Brother?"

"Two years ago, at the party, Evelyn got drunk and told me everything. I promised that I wouldn't talk about it.."

"But you did. Not only did you talk but caused deliberate damage to her life. You have always been a homewrecker, aren’t you?" I mocked her which shattered her heart.

“I am sorry, I swear, I didn't mean to..” She looked down and continued,

"And... I have seen the way you look at her. So, I thought you liked her too. When I talked to you, I found out that I was right. And I sneaked into your room and opened your phone and sent it." I stared at her timid form and shook my head.

"What a sneaky pest you are. Do you love destroying lives?" I sneered at her which evoked silent tears from her.

"I know he can lose himself in rage but… I swear I didn’t imagine he would raise his hand.." She trailed off.

"Brother knew that you were standing there, that's why he refrained himself. In a sense, you saved me from his temper or else you would find me with a broken bone" I muttered, rolling my eyes and she looked at me in disbelief.

I gave her an empty laugh with a strange emptiness filling my heart and she looked away and left me alone in my miserable thoughts and stings.

....Only if we know how our small mistake of loving someone can destroy our future...
