| CHAPTER NINE |
IT WAS dawn when we had sex. If he wasn’t tired he wouldn’t stop. I was so weak after he used me. He was already asleep and I was also asleep next to him due to weakness.
I just woke up the next day because of a voice shout. I rolled my eyes and saw Clyde’s eyebrows meet.
“Wake up woman!” It screams at me. It has no upper garment. I feel like it’s just a boxer under the blanket.
My cheeks warmed up. “C-Clyde-”
“Why are you sleeping beside me?” He asked with anger in his voice.
I blinked and woke up. Twitter immediately visited me as I stared at him.
“H-Ha? I-I thought-”
“Next time, I don’t want to see you next to me in bed after using you. Do you understand? -” I nodded immediately out of fear of him.
What’s his problem? Early in the morning he was immediately angry.
“Stand up and leave my room. Now!” Its voice was like lightning. I just stood up and hurried out of his room.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
When I got to the guest room my tears flowed. I covered my mouth to stop sobbing.
Please Nathania, stop crying!
I lay down on the bed and there cried. My eyes are swollen. I had a few minutes of crying before I decided to take a bath and get dressed. As I looked at myself in the mirror I heard a loud knock on my bedroom door.
“What are you doing ?! You’re going to cook!” Clyde shouted from outside.
I looked at myself in the mirror again and sighed.
That’s the beginning, Nathania. Your hellish life with Clyde has begun.
All you have to do is stay strong. It will also end.
I took a deep breath. I walked out of the room. When I came out, Clyde’s disgusted face immediately greeted me.
“I-I’m sorry …” I just apologized and bowed and walked to the kitchen to cook.
“Next time, wake up in the morning. You’re not a princess here. You’re a slave so act like a slave.” He said in a cold voice.
I just started cooking even though what he said hurt me. When I finished I set the table. He just entered the dining area and sat down. He started eating so I was about to sit down to eat when he stopped me.
“I didn’t tell you to come with me.” He said I stopped. I flinched and bowed in embarrassment.
Like you, Clyde!
I just stood on the side and waited for him to finish.
“Someone will take you to your school later. The supplies are in the principal’s office. I bought them because I know your belongings were burnt. I also gave an excuse.” He said after a few moments of silence between the two of us.
I felt a little relieved by what he said. All I could think was that I would never be able to study.
I just nodded at what he said. I didn’t say anything until he finished eating. He was ready to go to his office.
“I’ll fetch you later.” Turan it and go straight away. I was left speechless. I heard the door of the house close and the car function until he was completely gone.
I was relieved that he was gone. I just sat down and ate. The dishes were then set aside.
I spent my free time cleaning the house before I entered. After I cleaned the house I rested first before preparing for the entrance. I was just wearing jeans and a white T-shirt. He said that my uniform was in the principal’s office so I would just get dressed there.
As I was going down the stairs I heard a horn. I peeked outside and saw a black car.
This is probably what Clyde says will deliver me.
I went out of the house and met the driver of the car that we now turned to the side.
“Good afternoon, ma’am. I’m Edie, the driver and I’ll take you every time you come in.” Turan a pretty old man.
I smiled at him. “Good afternoon. Just don’t call me ma’am. Just Nathania. Also, don’t say ‘po’ to me.” Ani ko. He just nodded and opened the car door in the back seat.
I immediately rode in the back. Mang Edie got on and started driving. While we were on the trip to my school I couldn’t help but be nervous. I was also absent for a few days. My notes are burnt so how can I review our past lessons? I just sighed. Bahala na.
“Here we are, hija.” Mang Edie announced and stopped the car.
“Thank you!” Ani ko. He nodded again and was about to come out to open it for me but I preceded him.
“It’s me! I can do it so just don’t open me up.” I said to Mang Edie and said goodbye to him.
I went straight to the gate. When I entered, I was greeted by students looking at me. My forehead furrowed at their mysterious look. I kept walking. When I reached the building someone shouted my name.
“Nathania!” I turned to Laiza when she called me. It ran towards me and approached.
I stopped walking and frowned at him.
Laiza is Spencer’s classmate. It is beautiful and rich. All I know is that he likes Spencer too. I also know that it was a bit annoying to me because I was close to Spencer so I really wonder now why he approached me.
“Laiza? Why?” I asked him as it stopped in front of me.
“I just want to ask if Spencer’s condition is okay? I heard he had an accident. Is he okay now?” I was stunned by his question.
I have no news about Spencer. What happened to him was very fresh and I really blame myself for what happened.
“I wanted to visit him, but his parents didn’t allow us. You’re the one closest to him so I’m sure you know his condition now.” The reason for this.
“L-Laiza …” I called her name.
“I don’t know. I haven’t heard from him either.” My answer.
“What ?! Are you kidding me? Is it okay, Nathania. I’m just asking so just tell me.” He said in disgust.
I shook. “I really don’t know, Laiza. Let’s just wait for her parents to give her the news. She’ll be fine too.” Ani ko.
“Ugh! You’re so useless! How come you don’t know that you’re always together. You’re sticking with him to make money, aren’t you?” The tone of his voice was mixed with teasing, which made my eyes widen.
“W-What? That’s not true Laiza-”
“Oh please Nathania! Stop denying it! All the students here know you’re just using Spencer. I really don’t know why you want to be with me then. You’re not pretty, you’re poor and you’re so useless! You don’t matter duh! ” My ears tingled with what I heard from him.
“I’m not using Spencer, Laiza.” I said weakly but emphatically.
It just laughed fakely. “Whatever you say!” It glared and turned its back on me.
I followed him with my eyes and just shook my head.
The rich really. I didn’t go out and befriend Spencer because he was rich. He’s my friend and he’s like a brother to me. They just care what they think of me.
I just walked into my room. But when I entered, I was bombarded with questions about Spencer.
