Chapter 57 *** Exposed ***

[ CHAPTER THEME SONG:
Honeymoon Revenue By Ariana Grande ]
[ BLAKE'S POV ]

Drizzling had started to block my car view as I started driving from Veronica's apartment. I had no intention of having sex with her since our situation was totally messed up. I am married man with wife and she was a flourishing star who could get any type of man that she wanted as her. But I fell deeper into this so called forbidden affair. Even until today,I was doubting that perhaps I felt lust for her only. But reminding me of my actions earlier, I was speechless over myself.

When I heard from my super fast assistant that Veronica had been accused for stealing SK's signature dress. For a while, I was blankheaded then a sudden realization hit my head. I saw a brand new dress on Victoria's dressing room last night. The weird part was that when I intended to look into it, Victoria ignored my request and made several excuses before dragging me out of her dressing room.

My instincts speculated right. When I received the news, I made my way home hurriedly. After finding the dress, I was more shocked when I saw the golden printed name under the liner "SK."

With so much questions busting inside my head, I headed off straight to Veronica's fashion show and fortunately I made my appearance on right time. But my mind wasn't in peace. Victoria was never been so vengeful person and she claimed to be proud of her younger sister always.

Did I know my wife wrong so far?

She wasn't so amateur like this before at least not according to my knowledge. I needed an explanation from her. If she really did this, I wanted her to see through her mistake. I wasn't mentally prepared to tell her my secret but I never wished bad for her. We spent few good years together and she deserved my loyalty. Veronica had come in my life later on but I loved her with everything.

Funny, isn't it? Victoria was with me for five years yet she didn't make me feeling the way I felt for Veronica. Sometimes times don't matter, feeling does.

With all those thoughts dwelling inside my head, I made my way inside my mansion. The lights were still off inside our room as I assumed that Victoria didn't return from her agency still.

Slipping out from my shoes,I started unbuttoning my T-shirt when the door creaked open and Victoria stepped in. I spun around to look at her and her pale, depressed face assured me further that she was behind all this lowly scheme.

Was it really my Victoria whom I loved?

I questioned naturally,
" What happened to you? You look so pale."

Her eyes glanced up at me blankly as she responded like a whisper,
" Agency! But you seem to know about my frustrations already."

I was stunned, stupified for a couple of seconds. Regaining my calm composure, I asked stepping forward to look into her vacant eyes,
" What do you mean?"

She replied clenching her teeth harder,
" You...You sent back the original dress to Veronica, isn't it?"

I was a little taken back but having second thought, my anger brusted out. I looked into her furious eyes and replied disbelievingly,
" How do you know... wait...Do..do you mean that you really did this to Veronica?"

She skipped my question and grabbed me by my arms. Forcing me to look into her eyes, she started yelling at my face after pulling out few photographs from her bag,
" Tell me!! What were you doing in Veronica's apartment after the show? Tell me, Blake! Are you fucking cheating on me with my sister? Answer me, Blake."

My eyes switched on the photographs that were laying on the ground. My stomach deepened in fear and anxiety when I saw the pictures that were taken when I entered into the apartment with Veronica. I wasn't afraid that I was exposed in front of Victoria. Today or tomorrow, she would be aware of the truth. But these were taken by any reporter, Veronica's life would be hell again.

I restrained my anger and blurted out with same intensity and anger,
" From where did you get these pictures? Or are you spying on me? From where the fuck did you get all."

Victoria choked staring at me disbelievingly,
" You...This is your truth..You were really cheating on me?"

I emphasized my words, anxiety consumed my soul,
" Answer to me first, Victoria. Who sent you this?"

She gave me her answer as I froze almost lost the ability of breathing normal,
" A Reporter! They followed you."

My mouth hung open in fear and thoughts blocked my rational sense. Victoria stepped forward, raised her voice two times higher,
" Tell me, Blake? Is it true? You..and Veronica..You..two.."

Her eyes were teared up as she choked on her saliva and kept staring at me hopefully. But I needed my answer first.

Jerking off her grip from my arms, I questioned looking back into her eyes questioningly,
" You answer to my question first. Was it really you? Tell me!! "

She finally erupted like volcano and yelled as her response,
" Yes!! Yes!!! It was me! Me!! What do you expect from me, Blake? I am not a saint. I want my position back. I can't loose my title to Veronica. I needed to remove her from my path but you..you have ruined my plan. Why do you care about her so much? Tell me, Blake. Why the fuck you care about her?"

SLAP!!

This was totally unexpected from me too but I couldn't keep my anger holding down anymore. My eyes stared hard at Victoria with disgust as I sneered speaking out disbelievingly,
" How could you!! She is your own sister. You are an idol Victoria but you stoop so low just to gain a title. I don't know this selfish Victoria. You are making me disgusted on yourself. Regarding my relationship with Veronica, you are free to think whatever you wish."

She stared back at me disbelievingly as I made my way outside of our room. I couldn't believe that she had done such malicious trick on her own sister. Even if I didn't love Veronica, I would have still slapped Victoria because she deserved it.

As I reached out for the door knob, Victoria's stern voice rang out from my back coldly,
" How can you play with me?? I have been tormented by those Mafias because of you. Not even that, we have lost our child because of your personal grudge with Luther Michael. They wanted to take their revenge on you and used me. How can you think about abandoning me after everything?"

My back stiffened after her words as she hit straight inside my heart. Everytime, she mentioned about her abortion,I felt guilty towards her and wanted to give her my best except my heart because Veronica had managed to occupy my entire heart.

How could I keep both women in my heart?

She brust into more tears as I stood unmoved and pressed my back against her numbly. She continued baffling out sobbing harder than before,
" I should have understood it. I am no longer famous and Young in your eyes. That's why you sneak out with my sister. Just tell me the truth, Blake. Do you want to leave me and be with her? I will have to know the truth. I will leave you without any confrontation but I feel sorry for our child."

My heart wrenched in pain and lips trembled together wanting to speak something but I couldn't. Victoria had endured so many things for me.

How could I say her that I was in love with Veronica?

At the end, I decided to keep quiet and left the room after murmuring few words weakly,
" I am sorry for everything that happened to you, Victoria. But you despised me today for whatever you tried to do on Veronica. If you attempt to do something again, I will have no choice but exposing you to your father. Remember my words! I have nothing else to say anymore."

I slammed the door off and headed for the guest room. I needed to know who was that fucking reporter that took our photographs secretly.

I couldn't leak out those photographs at any cost. This time, Veronica's reputation would be ruined totally.
