“Are you alright?” Someone asked from behind but she was lost in thought that she didn’t hear it
The person sat beside her and then gently crossed a hand on her shoulder, she turned and stared at the person
“Adel,” she called upon seeing the face
“Yes, mind telling me why you’re crying?” She asked and Kate burst out crying
“Am so sorry, please will you ever forgive me?” Kate said and Adel nodded
“My heart is too precious to hold grudges against anyone, so tell me,” she replied and Kate nodded
“I use to h@ťě you so much cos you were good at everything, in Modeling it was you, in fashion, it was you, in good shape and curvy body it was you, in beautiful it was you, everyone wanted you, everyone also loves you so much, Margaret, Bruce all of them,” she cleans the tears in her eyes
“I became jealous, I was so jealous that I couldn’t think straight, I f-__-ked my half cousin because I wanted him to help me get a higher place in modeling and he did, now I don’t want to continue f-__-king him anymore, my conscience is beating me, Adel I don’t have peace, peace is fear away from me, and he won’t live me,” she cried tears streaming down her cheeks
“It’s alright since you have repented, I know of all these things, I knew you were f-__-king your brother and I knew that you were pretending to be my friend so I have to pretend too,” she replied gently and Kate looked at her
“You knew?” She asked, her eyes widen
Adel smiles lightly
“I have seen you both twice, but I like minding my business, by the way, someone is here to see you,” Adel added and Tom came in
“Tom,” she called surprised
“Cute cute Kate,” he called and she smiled
“Wait, did you hear everything I said right now? And how did you….” That was interrupted cos he placed a finger on her lips
“It’s okay, I heard everything and I did an investigation cos my brother is a cop so you don’t have to be afraid of Simon anymore, you should have told someone earlier than allowing him to use you like that,” Tom said and she looked down
“Am sorry, I was scared, what if he tells the whole world that I strip nak*d before him and asked him to f-__-k me just because I wanted to become no 1 in the modeling agency,” Kate whimpered
“I will leave you two,” Adel said and left, she met Margaret by the door
“Let’s go,” she said and they walk out
“Where to?” Margaret asked
“Home, I need to see Ashley,” she replied
