The Love From Vengeance

Chapter 3



“Answer my question, will you?”

“Fine,” she uttered, wrapping her hands around my neck, slowly moving her fingers at the ack of my neck. “Well, I spilled coffee on my dress earlier, and this maid called Bridget let me in. Apparently, Ariel lent me one of her clothes.”

SARY

“Ariel lent you one of her clothes.” I uttered it in disbelief. There was no way Ariel would do

that

I couldn’t actually tell, but I had a feeling Ariel didn’t like Harriet one bit, since she knew about our relationship. There was this time when I accidentally brought Harriet’s lipsticks home, and when Ariel found them, she didn’t hesitate to tell the whole issue to my grandfather. So technically, I wasn’t going to believe what Harriet was telling me.

“Baby, what are you thinking about?” Harriet held my face, putting away those thoughts.

“Are you really sure Ariel lent you this dress?” I asked again, just to see if this lover of mine was actually in her senses.

Harriet let out a long sigh. “Okay, fine, Ariel didn’t lend it to me; I just borrowed it.‘

“Without asking her for permission?” I arched an eyebrow, and Harriet shrugged in response. “Where is Ariel?”

“How in the world am I supposed to know?” She brought out an irritating tone, and I quickly gave her a disgusting look. The moment she noticed that, she had to compose herself. “I’m sorry; it’s just that she wasn’t home when I arrived.”

“Where is she now?” I inaudibly said to myself, my hands fixed on my waist.

“Why are you looking so troubled?” Harriet asked, and I set my eyes on her right away.

“What do you mean by that?” I raised an eyebrow at her.

“It’s clear that you’re worried about this wife of yours. Do you love her?”

“Why would you ask me such a silly question?” I gave her a cold stare.

She shrugged. “I don’t know; your actions toward Ariel are just so different today. It’s like you’re worried sick.”

I gave Harriet a death stare, and she paused immediately.

“You may go now. I’ll see you later tonight at the Mystery Club,” I said, and she nodded. “But don’t ever wear any of Ariel’s dresses anymore; they don’t suit you!”

She looked at me, not pleased with my tone, but she nodded once more and began to walk away. I saw the heart–shaped birthmark on her arm, and at that moment, my expression softened. She eventually walked away, and I sighed afterwards.

I burst into the house and made my way to my bedroom. I opened the wardrobe in haste, only to notice that it was still packed full of Ariel’s clothes. Harriet had only taken one of her dresses.

Oh great, Ariel’s clothes were still in the bedroom, so it was obvious she was playing a silly prank on me when she brought those divorce papers. And she had to extend such a joke by not visiting my grandfather. She was a lunatic, but her madness was nowhere near mine.

The day had gotten dark, and I was in Mystery Club, along with Harriet and some of my friends. Harriet was dressed in a sparkling red dress, flaunting her curves, and she sat on me, wrapping her arm

around my neck. A lot of compliments were directed to the both of us, and she literally accepted them all. It’s something she was good at.

We were all gathered, playing the game ‘Spin the Bottle‘, which we had started about five minutes ago after taking in some mouthwatering wine. Someone spun the bottle, and it ended up pointing at me.

One of my friends clapped right away. His name was Daniel, and let’s just say he was the crazy guy around here. He was handsome and won the hearts of so many girls; he was literally a player.

“Okay, Luke, it’s time to throw a serious question at you.” Daniel grinned mischievously, with his hands clasped together,

“How serious is it?” I quizzed, with a huge smile on my face.

“How beautiful is your girlfriend?” He asked, still grinning.

“Really, really beautiful,” I answered without hesitation.

“Yup, you got your answer.” He pointed at me, while Harriet kissed me on the lips. I couldn’t help but rub her butt, and she gently rocked it on my crotch, causing me to get hard.

“So Luke, you tell us… how did you meet Harriet?” Daniel asked. Harriet chuckled at the question and handed me a glass of liquor.

I took the glass from her hands and drained it. I exhaled deeply. “As you all can see, Harriet saved my life.” I smiled at Harriet, who gave me the same expression before pecking me on the lips.

“She did?” One of my friends, Bryan, asked, as everyone was kind of shocked at my response. They were probably thinking she was Wonder Woman or the female version of Hercules at the moment, but that wasn’t the case.

Twenty years ago, on Christmas Eve, I was kidnapped by a group of men, and so was this girl; we were both little at the time. The kidnappers held us captives for days; I even missed Christmas. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Those moments were really dark, but they eventually came to an end. This little girl found a way to escape, but she was too afraid to make a move. So I was the only one who escaped, and I had to inform the police about everything.

By the time we got to the location, no one was there. The kidnappers had left, along with this little girl. There was this heart–shaped birthmark on her arm, which I kept in my memory.

As I lived my life growing up, I searched for this person. Years passed, but one faithful day, I stumbled upon Harriet, who was singing at the bar: She had the heart–shaped birthmark on her arm, so it was obvious she was the little girl at that time. And from that moment on, I decided to be her man and vowed that I would not let go of her. But then Ariel had to come into the picture.

Thinking of Ariel, my face darkened, and my joy vanished. And then I noticed the look on Bryan‘ face; it was not normal.

“Shit!” Bryan came out, reading whatever text he had gotten on his phone.

“What’s the problem?” Daniel asked. Everyone looked at Bryan in curiosity. I could see that.

KIDNAPPED REMEMBRANCE

“One of my friends ran into Miss White at the airport!” Bryan answered and gave me a knowing look.

“Who?” I quizzed myself, not believing my ears.

“Ariel Walker. Oh, sorry, Mrs. Reynold, your wife,” Bryan replied, loudly to a certain degree.
