Chapter 143
Three hours later and I was drenched in sweat. I didn't want to finish late since I have school tomorrow. I've been neglecting most of my studies so far. I didn't want to throw my education away even if my current situation was pretty much chaotic. I didn't want my parents to be alerted on the shit that was happening and make them worry about me.
I took a quick shower, feeling my strained muscles complain as I walked to my bathroom. After taking a quick shower and feeling clean, I turned off the shower and toweled myself dry. I was halfway done putting my pajamas on when my phone rang.
Adam's caller ID flashed on my phone screen and I had the strong urge to decline the call. I was still butt hurt about what he had said earlier. I was too tired to deal with his judgmental shit right now. All I wanted to do was go to bed and be prepared to face hell tomorrow.
But I decided that he has earned himself a few points for at least reaching out to me. I answered the call, deciding to stay quiet and simply listen to him. After a quiet moment of silence, I started to think that maybe he might have butt dialed me. Then I heard her voice and my blood ran cold.
"Adam, baby, what's for dinner?" Her voice was louder than Adam's when he answered her. I came to the conclusion that he didn't butt dial me after all. But he didn't call me to apologize either. In fact, I don't think he called me, period. My guess was proven right when Kiara's low voice filled the line.
"He told me what you said, bitch. Why do you have to spoil our fun, Cassandra? Don't be such a jealous bitch." Kiara sneered lowly, presumably so that Adam wouldn't hear.
Not like he would care what his perfect girlfriend had to say about the girl that risked everything for him.
I gritted my teeth. "Listen here you bitch, if you hurt him or any of his family members, I-" The line went dead before I could finish and I screamed in frustration.
I called Preston for the second time that day to make sure he gets his brother away from that leech.
I didn't even wait for Preston's greeting before speaking. "Preston, get your brother away from that bloody witch! He's with her in the same house, about to have dinner together! Call him and get him away from her!" I barked into the phone. Even though I was furious at Adam, I still cared about the idiot. I didn't want him to get hurt just because he wouldn't trust me.
"Case? What are you talking about?" Maddison's voice answered and I groaned. What the hell was today? Answer your boyfriend's phone day?
Too bad you don't have a boyfriend.
Bitch conscience.
"Hey, sorry that you had to hear that." I greeted Maddison as nicely as I could before continuing in a rushed tone, "Can you give the phone to Preston?"
I could tell that she hesitated but finally muttered an ‘okay' She called Preston and gave him his phone. At least one of their girlfriends was a decent person.
"What's up?" He repeated his greeting from earlier and I rolled my eyes before repeating the things I accidentally barked at Maddison. I could tell that Preston got the urgency in my tone He started muttering profanities under his breath and quickly hung up on me.
I sighed tiredly and threw myself on the bed.
I'm tired and I'm so done with worrying about Adam. I told him to stay away from Kiara and what did he do next? Have dinner with the bloody witch.
Way to rub your lack of trust in me in my face, dude.
That was my last annoyed thought before I finally fell asleep, forgetting to set an alarm to get up early the next morning.
