Diamond sent the two first before driving back ho. She didn’t feel like staying out for longer.
The girls had work to do, and she wasn’t going to disturb them. There was so much that she could do at ho.
For example, looking at the information about the music show she was going to be attending in two days. Or practice her alchemy or martial skills in the space.
So, she drove happily towards her ho and when the mood was going perfectly well, as a person who had another major problem of hers solved, her phone started ringing.
’Who can it be?’ she wondered as she looked at the car monitor screen only for her expression to turn blinding, beaming with joy upon seeing the caller ID.
How long had it been since she talked to him?
It’s been ages, and she was missing him so much.
As if injected with chicken blood, Diamond clicked the answer button on the monitor screen, the call going automatically on speaker, "Hello dear!" and she greeted enthusiastically.
[Diamond ..... what the heck did you send ?] and the response was quite chilling.
What the heck is this guy talking about? She was baffled, her fingers freezing on the steering wheel, in disbelief at the tone and how he was calling her.
"Sulli, what kind of pepper did you eat? What are you talking about?" infuriated with how the other was talking to her, she furiously asked.
There was no hello baby or dear. How are you? I missed you. But he had the guts to send her such a ssage. Was he seeking death?
[Pepper? Diamond, you have the energy to even joke around right now. don’t you know what you sent?] The retort ca pretty quickly.
How could she not know what she sent?
Was there anything bad about the ssage she sent?
Besides, why was he overreacting like this? Didn’t she clarify when she sent the ssage?
Wasn’t this how a guilty person always reacts? Could it be that he .....
"You, you tell what the heck is going on yourself? Whoever knows you and , sent that damn provocative photo and all I did was send it back to you and warn you!" she gritted her teeth as she said angrily, her hold over the wheel very strong. "But instead of exchanging pleasantries and at least telling that you will look into it, you dare call and accuse ?" she laughed mockingly as Sullivan’s tone earlier kept on ringing in her head.
[You ...]
Crack. Crack.
Diamond’s finger joints made a cracking sound as she left the wheel, and Andrea took over, cutting Sullivan who was obviously about to say sothing infuriating and said, "You are my boyfriend and honestly it is just a few people who know my number. And yet I received sothing like this!" just thinking about it, Diamond felt like sinking her nails into soone.
"I didn’t even accuse you but kindly warned you. But what are you doing?" she asked mockingly. "Tell . What the f** are you trying to do right now?"
[Hehe, I see your true colors now!]
Diamond: ....
[To think that you don’t trust enough and dare think of like this. Do you even love ?]
Diamond: .....
What the heck is this dude on to think and even talk like this?
[If you trusted , you wouldn’t even send that ssage. What do you want to think when you send it? And is this how you talk to your boyfriend? Don’t you have manners?]
’What the ....?’
Diamond felt all the heat rising from her toes all the way to her head. She could even sll the fus. Sothing was burning inside her and honestly, she just wanted to burst.
"How dare you speak like that to , Sullivan?" Diamond clenched her fists, veins popping on her head and her jaws tightening as she glared at the screen as if she could see Sullivan there.
"How dare you point fingers at how I talk? Haha, are you so deity that I need to fall on my belly, crawl on my knees and speak sugar-coated words sweetly when speaking to you?" she laughed mockingly just thinking of the so-called scenario and continued, tilting her head, to air out so stress. "I don’t know what kind of drugs you are on, but call once your head is settled. I can’t deal with such madness right now!" she said outrightly before hanging up.
"The audacity! Damn!" Diamond cursed as she clenched her fists, her teeth gritting, completely pissed off at Sullivan.
After not speaking for days, the first thing that he did was to do this. Was he tired of her or ate so tiger’s gall bladder that he was acting like this towards her? Just how much guts did he have to do this?
Unfortunately, Diamond didn’t have more ti to look into her inner self, trying her best to analyze what Sullivan was doing when another call ca in and it was him again.
She contemplated whether to pick up or not, but after so inner battle, she still picked up the call and regretted it.
[You have guts, woman!]
"What the _?"
[Diamond, be honest with . Do you love ?]
This sudden question baffled Diamond. Didn’t she make it clear to them a long ti ago?
"Why are you asking this question?"
[Heh, you can’t even answer straightly. Diamond, ask yourself. What do you take and my brother as?]
"Where are you going with this?"
[Must we live under your shadow for the rest of our lives? Must we go where you want us to go simply because you are the lady in the relationship? Tell , be honest with . Have you ever loved us? Or you just don’t want to feel lonely?]
Diamond raised her hands to her head and started massaging her aching temples.
’This man must be drunk sohow!’ she thought tiredly as she listened to the string of questions.
[Answer , Diamond!]
Taking a deep sigh, Diamond opened her mouth and answered, "If you are that curious, then co to et on the fourteenth. We will talk face to face!" before hanging up.
And this ti, she put her phone on flight mode. Even if he wanted to call again, he wouldn’t reach her, no matter what. There was no way she was going to continue dealing with such a person.
When he cooled down, she would talk to him.
And this will also give her more ti to think about his questions.
Did she love them?
Of course, she does love them. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given them the pills. That was another way of exposing herself, a very risky move, and yet she did it.
If she didn’t have feelings for them, would she invite them to her parents’ house and let her family see them?
She could just hide them and let them remain in the dark forever, but she still showed them up. Didn’t he see that when she showed Kian to the world?
How can he ask such a question?
Although she had barely expressed her love for them a lot, that didn’t an that she deserved to be questioned like this.
’Wait a minute, why am I the one feeling guilty all of a sudden?’ this question suddenly ca to mind as she questioned herself.
Didn’t everything stem from Sullivan’s suspicious behavior in that photo?
Could it be that there was really more to this than what she thought?
Her eyes narrowed suddenly, a murderous glint flashing in her eyes.
Adjusting her sitting posture, Diamond’s lips curled upward into a sly smirk as she said, "Andrea, look at Sullivan. I an everything from the day he was born until now!" her tone commandeering.
And as if Andrea had been waiting for that for ages, he gave an imdiate response, {I will have everything ready by the end of the day!} a playful emoticon flashing on the screen.
