The Heiress' Re Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Chapter 2

A R I A N A

I left the restaurant alone, my heart heavy as I thought of a thousand reasons why Angelo didn’t make it and why he lied to .

I called him twelve tis.

No answer.

What could possibly be the reason behind his absence, i had so much planned out for us today, and he ssed it up.

I took a cab ho, my stomach in knots. The baby, our baby was still a secret, I had been so excited to tell him.

Now, I just felt sick.

I dragged myself out of the cab my muscles weak, excitent now turned to hurt, anger and hint of worry.

The apartnt was dark when I walked in and quiet, too quiet.

Then I saw it.

A piece of clothing on the floor.

A lacy black bra.

Not mine.

My heart stopped.

I didn’t wear black lace, I never had.

My hands shook as I bent down to pick it up.

The fabric was soft, expensive.

Familiar

Bella’s, I reber buying her the set for her birthday, but what could it possibly be doing here?

My stomach twisted.

No. No, no, no.

I dropped the bra like it burned

my chest was so tight I could barely breathe it couldn’t be what I was thinking, it can’t be... Angelo would never do this to

maybe he was trying to play a prank on .

Then,

A sound.

A moan.

From our bedroom.

My legs moved before my mind could catch up. Each step felt like walking through mud. My pulse roared in my ears.

The door was slightly open. The sounds were louder now.

Gasps, grunt even the bed creaking.

I pushed the door open.

And then,

I saw them.

Angelo was naked on top of Bella.

Her legs wrapped around him, his nails digging into his back, his lips all over her neck.

"Fuck! That’s right baby... you like that?" Angela moaned thrusting into her harder and faster.

"Yes! I’m cumming.." She scread.

"Co for

baby.."

My world shattered.

Everything stopped.

The air left my lungs, my knees buckled. I gripped the doorfra to keep from falling.

They didn’t even notice .

They were too lost in each other.

Angele groaning Bella’s na as he took her harder on our matrimonial bed...

It felt like a nightmare.

It didn’t make any sense to , I prayed that this was only just a bad dream one which I’d wake up and brush off.

Angelo loves , he’d never cheat on

with anyone not my best friend, Bella is more than just a friend but a sister, she would never hook up with my husband... it wasn’t possible.

But if only wishes were horses.

And that’s when I broke.

A sob ripped from my throat.

They froze.

Angelo’s head snapped up. His eyes wide with panic locked onto mine.

"Ariana—"

Bella scrambled off the bed, grabbing the sheets to cover herself. "Oh my God."

I couldn’t speak, I couldn’t move, if I did I would crumble to the ground.

All I could do was stand there, my heart in pieces at my feet.

Angelo jumped up, pulling on his pants. "Ariana, it’s not what it looks like—"

I laughed, A broken, hollow sound.

Not what it looks like?

He was inside my best friend, in our bed.

On our ANNIVERSARY!!!

I turned and ran.

"Ariana, wait!"

I didn’t stop I couldn’t stop every piece of my heart was broken.

I barely made it to the bathroom before I fell to my knees and vomited tears stread down my face, my body shaking.

I was pregnant.

And my husband was a cheater.

And my best friend was a traitor.

I didn’t know which hurt more.

All I knew was

My life was over.

I spent almost an hour in the bathroom before deciding to walk out and pack... I was leaving.

If only I had listened to my parents, then maybe I wasn’t going to get my heartbroken by a fucking cheat. A man who I’ve gave up everything for, and returned I got my heart shattered.

Bella?

It didn’t even make sense that it was my best friend.. how could she do this to ?

As I walked out of the bathroom I t Angelo pacing back and forth.

"Aria..."

"Don’t!" I warned stopping him from touching , he had lost that right.

"Just listen to " he says but I ignored him heading for my box.

I got it and zipped it open.

As I gathered my clothes piling them in the box, tears streaming down my eyes, I felt pathetic.

He caught my wrist "Just stop and listen to !" He roared making my heart drop.

He has never used that tune on , it gave

a fright.

"What do you want

to hear? You fucking cheated on my with my best friend on our wedding anniversary? How could you Angelo? I trusted you, I loved and cared for you, I did everything for you? And what did I get in return?" I spat in disgust.

"Everything for ? What did you Ariana? Huh? Cause the last ti I checked you’re leaching off of ... what have you ever brought to the table, huh? What is it?" He mocked.

I stared at him in shock, what was wrong with Angelo, my Angelo would never say things like this to , it was almost like he was a new person, a different person.

"I’ll tel you what? Nothing! Absolutely nothing. I’ve been with you for years and I’ve only wanted a child but your damaged womb can’t even give

that!" He insults.

His words sliced through my heart like an arrow.

My lips trembled as I stared at him in disbelief.

"Angelo..."
