Chapter 70_ I’m sorry
Arya’s eyes widened by his sudden move, he placed a hand at the back of her neck to stop her from resisting him..
Arya who couldn’t take it anymore but his lips, she tasted the metallic taste of blood in her mouth and raised her hand to Kyle’s chest before pushing him off her..
Kyle touched the corner of his lips that was stained with a little blood and smirked ..
“What has gotten over you Kyle Anderson?! is this the way to behave with a lady?!” Arya fired at him trying to catch her breathe..
She stood up from the bed and came to stand in front of him with a cold glare..
“How to behave?! really? even though this marriage wasn’t a real one.. I made sure I stayed far away from ladies but you? you couldn’t even forget that cheating b*stard!…ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
A slap from Arya rendered him speechless, he stared at her frame in unbelief and anger filled his whole being..
“Do you really think I’m that kind of woman Kyle? yes I admit that I met Cole and I also left the city today but did you bother to find out why I was there? even if I despise you I could never insult you in that manner!…
She heaved in a deep breath and took a step closer to him..
“And even if I did, what has this gotten to do with you? isn’t this all for Ray’s sake? why on earth do you think you can tell me who to see and who not to see?!”
Kyle closed his eyes briefly, he didn’t bother to find out why she was there in the first place but rather he jumped into conclusions..
He was just about to speak when he heard the sound of the closing door behind him, she left!..
He face palmed himself with a curse beneath his breath, how could he? he just messed everything up and what if she doesn’t agree to get married to him after what just transpired?..

Kyle glanced up when he heard sound of the door opening once more, his gaze settled on Ray whose eyes were red from sobbing..
“Ray? are you alright?”
Ray walked towards him and snatched his laptop from him and in the next second a loud crash was heard in the room..
“You made Arya upset again daddy! she doesn’t even want to talk to me anymore.. what if she doesn’t agree to get married to you anymore?”
Kyle banged his fist on the table staring at his laptop on the ground, Ray was startled staring at his dad’s bloodshot eyes..
“Do you know what you’ve done?! I’ve spent weeks working on something important on that laptop and you ruined it?!”
Ray’s eyes teared up once more which calmed Kyle’s burning rage, he hated to see his son this upset..
“I’m really sorry Ray.. please don’t cry”
Ray turned around and bolted out of the room wailing loudly..
***
Rita sat on a stool in front of her mirror taking off her earrings and makeup while Dennis took the bed going through something on his phone..
“Martin isn’t back yet.. aren’t you worried?”
Dennis remained quiet, since Dennis wanted to prove how adamant he was so be it, he knew exactly where he might be and only him knew how angry he is..
“So? he’s a grown up man.. I don’t care about where he is..”
Rita stood up from the stool and walked towards her husband who didn’t spare her a glance..
“Why so I feel like the both of you are hiding something big from me? you never include me in any of your plans and when I ask you change the subject”
Dennis placed his phone on the nightstand table next to his bed and looked up to meet his wife’s curious eyes..
“Hiding what from you? don’t you have brains? have you ever seen when Elizabeth bug her husband like you do?”
Rita’s brows furrowed in anger, he knew how much she hated being compared to that hypocrite called Elizabeth and yet he was doing so to infuriate her..
“Why are you comparing her to me? and as for you haven’t you seen how your brother treats his woman? he never hides anything from her”
Dennis pulled the sheets up and calmly laid down on the bed ignoring her questions, she always gets on his nerves everytime..
“I’m talking to you Dennis!”
***
Arya opened her eyes slowly when she felt a shadow moving around the room, her eyes were all red and a bit swollen from crying last night..
Her brows furrowed when she found herself in Kyle’s bedroom, she clearly remembered falling asleep on the terrace last night..
“You’re awake”
Her attention was diverted to the man fastening his cufflinks a few metres away from her, she recalled what happened last night and her sour face darkened even more..
Kyle stared at his reflection in the mirror and was satisfied with the outcome, he walked around the bed and sat next to her..
Arya’s brows arched wondering what he was up to, he took the cup of tea next to nightstand and handed it to her..
“Have it”
Arya pulled her gaze off from him which meant that she was still upset about last night’s incident.
“I don’t want it” Came her short reply before she made an attempt to get out of the bed and infact! his presence..
Kyle held her back and sighed, he knew she was still upset with him..
“About last night.. I shouldn’t have jumped into conclusions like that and also I probably shouldn’t have behaved the way I did.. I’m sorry”
Arya tilted her head to the side unable to believe what he just said, did he really apologize to her? but regardless, she still doubted the sincerity behind his words..
“Are you apologizing to me because of Ray? and you probably thought that after last night I’d change my mind about getting married to you right?”
Kyle massaged the nape of his neck, her words were partly true, but he still owed her an apology at least..
“I’m being honest Arya..”
Arya sneered at him and stepped out of the bed ignoring his last words, he pulled her back from leaving, however Arya lost her balance and fell on him..
Her lips touched his left cheek leaving a pink imprint on it, her eyes grew large at what she had done..
The door was suddenly pushed open and Ray stepped in, his once annoyed expression was brightened up in seconds seeing Arya and his daddy do close to each other..
He giggled softly and left the room quietly, he didn’t want to disturb them, earlier he had wanted to scold his dad for treating Arya bad last night but seeing them close to each other clearly meant that they’ve made up..
Kyle guided her up and smirked seeing on seeing her red face ” So does this little gesture mean that you’ve accepted my apology?”
Arya pulled her gaze away from him and left his side in a hurry before she dies of embarrassment..
Kyle watched her ransacking the closet until his phone suddenly beeped..
“Yes Chad? oh she’s over here”
Chad sighed at the other end, he didn’t know how to relay the sad news to them without igniting Kyle’s fury..
“Arya’s dad has disappeared from the hospital” he announced only to receive silence at the other end..
