Chapter 181
Blair’s POV
While typing away at my computer, I saw a post from an article which said that Zendaya and Asher were getting remarried. I suddenly felt my heart shatter at what I had done to her by getting married to her boyfriend at the time.
I felt sorry and tried to call Aurora who was the only person I knew who had a connection to Zendaya.
“Who is this?” Aurora asked while laughing on the phone.
I was in another city and using another city’s phone number so it wasn’t far fetched that she wouldn’t know who was calling.
“It’s Blair, Zendaya’s friend,” I said as that left a bitter taste in my mouth. Was I even worthy to calling myself her friend after what I had done?
I took in deep breaths as I listened to what she had to say to me.
“Are you out of your mind?!” She asked in anger.
“I…”
“Don’t you ever call my phone number again!”
She cut the call as I was left stunned. Why would she snap at me like that? I had not done anything to her. Had Zendaya told her anything about me? If that was so I had to correct whatever negative things had been said about me.
I called her back as she picked but before she could snap I had to correct her.
“I’m sorry!” I yelled. “Whatever you think I did, I didn’t do it and I’m sorry.”
She hesitated before sighing over the phone. I had successfully gotten her to be by my side.
“What do you want?” she asked as I rejoiced.
“At least a way to contact Zendaya and apologize for what I’ve done in the past.”
“Didn’t you say you haven’t done anything to her? What do you want to apologize for if you are so innocent?”
She had caught me in my web of lies.
“Please,” I said, not having any more strength left in me to fight. “I just want it.”
“Well I can’t tell her what you said and I can’t send this to her so I’ll tell you what to write so I’ll send it myself.”
I nodded. I wrote down the message she wanted me to write and sent it to her as she approved of it.
When I was done using the computer, my coworker came in and yelled at me for using the computer before I went back to my daily cleaning job.
Now I had a regular part time job as a cleaner and unlike my past, I enjoyed myself less than I used to before. I had broken up with Alexander and gone on my way to be engaged to the head of a construction worker.
After work that day, I headed back home to cook for him. He usually got grumpy after work and he needed something to eat.
I bought some fresh vegetables along the way which I turned into a meal for lunch and when he got back for his lunch break, he kissed me even when he was filthy.
Some of his buddies were around to see us kiss and they hailed him for having a woman like me.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
I on the other hand was happy to have found peace in this world. It wasn’t easy but I was very much happy to have found a man who made me very happy.
This life had more meaning to it than fancy shoes and bags. It was better than my old one which was empty and filled with nothing meaningful.
In this one I had peace and meaning. I knew what life truly meant.
I wondered for a brief moment how Alexander was but shook my head. His father was the head of a company, of course he was living a wonderful life. His father must be there to provide him with whatever he wanted.
He was also the heir to his father’s company. It wasn’t going to be a bad life for him seeing as he came from a rich family.
I wished him well as I placed the vegetables in the broken down fridge. At least I had peace so I wished him peace.
I never loved him anyway. While young I had gone for him because he had money.
I didn’t know Asher would come along to take Zendaya away. I was jealous when that happened.
Of course I could not go for him seeing as I had already professed my love for Alexander and we had already started sleeping behind her back.
My only guilt was losing my friendship with Zendaya whom I always envied. Now I was wishing I was a better friend.
I couldn’t make any friend who was as good as Zendaya out there. All they wanted was someone who was going to do her job without messing up.
I wanted a friend. Ever since I had left the city with that scandal ruining my entire life, I had been divorced from Alex and I had been on my way to the next city to pick up the pieces of my life I could pick. It had not been much but I felt like I could do much with the pieces I had found.
That was where I met Harry. He was a small time construction worker. He had helped me find myself and even helped me find my new job.
I watched him grow and he was happy to have me as his wife. He would often tell me how his buddie envied him of having a beautiful and resourceful wife like me but that was because they did not know my history and I wanted it to be that way.
If they knew who I was I doubted they would stay. They would have gone a long time ago and I was living this new life I had built for myself.
He entered the kitchen to slap my butt as I turned around to find him more appealing than the night before.
