I punched the table when Dane and Cooper came out. Cooper told me he wants to visit Lileth and I can't say no. They are friends, and I don't want Cooper to doubt me. Besides, there is no issue as to whether he will come to visit her. What I am thinking right now is what he said that there is a group chat and everyone knows that Lileth cheated on me. I trusted Cooper, so I knew he was telling the truth. But I wonder where the conversation came from and who spread it? I have no enemy. I don't know if anyone secretly hated me when we were still in school, but I don't care. That is why I dislike making new friends because I don't want to be exposed to new people. Cooper is the only friend I have, though I know he is gay. Yes, I knew he was gay before we became friends because I saw him kiss a guy, but it doesn't bother me. I don't care about everyone's business as long as it doesn't affect me. It is his choice, so who am I to judge him if he is not meddling with me. I have my own life, and I don't mind everyone's life. When he confessed that he likes my sister, at first I had a doubt, thinking that maybe he would only want to use her. But when I saw how eager he is, I came up with the idea that maybe he's bi and not totally gay. And honestly, I like him more as Dane's lover, because I know he can take care of her. If what Cooper said about the GC is true, is Lileth's man's our batch mate? But, who? Who the fuck is he? I need to know who Lileth's man is. I need to know who he is. But Lileth doesn't want to admit it to me. Maybe I can punish her again so she will tell me the truth. "Sir, someone looking for you." My secretary informed me so I look at her. "Who?" "Sir Dylan." I frown my forehead when I heard Dylan's name. What does he need from me? I don't have anything on him. "Let him in." Dylan doesn't come directly to the office. Not because I banned him or someone blocked him but because he knows I hate when someone came without asking my permission first. Dylan and I are ok. Though we are not that close we are not an enemy either. We don't really talk for no reason at all. To be honest, my entire family. I am not close to them. I prefer to be alone with my books than to talk to one of them. "Wazzap!" "What do you want?" I asked and held out my hand to seat him. "You will not be asked if I wanted wine?" "You already have a lot in your house and anywhere you own. Besides, you won't come here if you don't need anything, right?" "Your genius. And because you are straightforward, I will be honest with you. Why didn't you take Lileth to the hospital?" I silently clench my fist. Fuck Dale. He's so fucking talkative. "Dale told you?" I stood up and headed for the wine section. I took one bottle with a glass. "He came from my office and we talked about something. And he just mentioned about Lileth." I went back and then handed him a glass. She just got wet in the cold, but she's okay. Lileth was fine, according to Keisha, who checked her out." But he was staring at me, holding the glass into which I had poured some wine. "That's odd of you, Dave. As far as I remember, you were the first to get confused even if Lileth had a cold then." He drank the wine and took the bottle then stumbled. "You're always worried when it comes to her health." "Lileth doesn't want to go to the hospital, Dylan. I would have brought her if it were up to me, but she insists she is fine and can rest at home. I just followed what she wanted." "Ah!" But he looked unconvinced. "Is there something wrong, Dylan?" "Nothing." Then he stood up and walked away. "What the hell, Dylan? You just came here for that? Asking about, Lileth?" But instead of answering, he just drank and turned away. "Dylan!" "Have a nice day," he replied then left. What the hell is wrong with him? Not that I'm scared of Dylan but fuck! I know how he takes care of Lileth. And I also knew that once he knew I was hurting my wife he would be able to do it to me. And when it comes to Lileth, maybe Dylan can kill me without hesitation. I know how important Lileth to him. I don't know how many hours I've been bent over thinking. My attention was caught when my secretary came in and said goodbye. When I look at the wall clock, I noticed it was already five. I just nod at her, and then she leaves. I pick up my things and then decide to go home. While on the road, Dylan was still on my mind. Does he already know? Have a clue? Taking action? Do I have to worry? Fuck! Why am I bothered by him? I am the husband, so what does he care? I was in front of the gate when I saw a black Mazda MX-5 outside the gate. Fuck! Dylan is the only person I know who owns a sports car like that. That's one of his collections. I park my car outside and quickly enter. Lileth wasn't there to welcome me, which is what I was expecting. "Good afternoon, sir," one of the maids greeted me. "Where's my wife?" "In your room?" "Dylan is here?" "Yes, it's inside too." I did not answer and immediately went to the room. When I opened it, they were not inside. Until I heard them on the veranda. "Please, Damon, stop it." "I won't stop, Lileth, until you will admit it. Why, are you afraid of Dave?" "Why would I? Dustine is my husband." "Then tell me the truth." "Damon, there is no truth in what you are saying. Nothing is true." "Fuck! Then what is that ha? Why do you have bruises?" "Damon, Dave is my husband, I get this when ----- when we make love." "Stop lying, Lileth." "There's no reason to lie, Damon, I'm telling the truth." "Why didn't Dave take you to the hospital when you got sick?" "I'm the one who said that I don't need it." "Fuck!" "Damon, my husband and I don't have a problem, so please stop looking for a problem with us." I didn't hear anything from Dylan. "You can leave." "Do you know who I am, Lileth?" he asks. "What do you mean?" "You know how nasty I am when I want to something and you also that my guts never fail me. And you're not exempted." "Damon," "Are you scared of Dave? Is he scaring you?" "Of course not." "You can leave him and come with ----" "What happened here?" I entered the veranda to face them. I don't seem to like what Dylan says next. "Nothing," Lileth answered. "And why are you here, Dylan? Aren't you from my office to clarify the issue, and now you are here?" "I came here to visit your wife." "Inside our room?" "She didn't want to go out so I entered." "Dustine," Lileth called to me but I didn't answer. "She doesn't want to go out, which means she doesn't want to talk to you." "That's why I came in because either she like it or not, she will talk to me." "Didn't you think that if I really hurt her, she'd be even more hurt when you left?" He couldn't answer because of what I said. "What will you do if your suspicion is correct?" "What will I do?" He approached me and pressed his face to mine. "I will kill you. Do you want me to do it now?" As I expected. Because he showed me his gun stuck in his waistband. "Damon, go." Lileth pushed her but he did not listen. He just stared at me which I resisted until Lileth pushed him away. "What is it, Damon? My husband and I have no problems but because of your interference, it is unlikely to have. Please, don't bother us as you did to Dane's friend. Dustine and I are ok. We are ok so stop meddling with us." She keeps pushing Dylan. "My wife is driving you away, Dylan." "It won't take too long, so don't rejoice early, Dave. Remember that I have a lot of eyes here." And he leaves. I followed him and closed the door. I looked at Lileth who was staring at me. "You are always the source of the problem." "Dustine." "You always give me a problem." I came to her and slapped her hard.
