In the billionaire’s bed - Season 1 - Episode 125

Emeliano’s PO V

It can’t be.
Rebecca wouldn’t do this to me. What am I even thinking… Something was surely wrong, there has to be a good reason for this.
Whatever this is.
I watched her converse freely with some business men and women, with Mason’s arm around her waist… I was boiling with not just anger, but fear and a little bit of confusion. Not a little bit. A lot of confusion.
She had hugged Rafael, kissed him on both of his cheeks like they were best of buddies or something… She had no hatred in her eyes for him, all I could see was love and admiration.
What?

Did Rafael perhaps tell her? Did he?
Even if he did, she wouldn’t do this- she’d come to me… She’d question me… That was Rebecca… But this- this was not how she usually- d--n, it was almost like I never knew her. She was different… She was everything she proved to me that she wasn’t.
What the hell is going on?
Staring at her was a continuous tight and painful slap to my face… Not knowing what was going on, was killing me.
Her eyes suddenly met mine. All I saw was- was pure- pure hate, her eyes darkened but she tried her best to put up a smile to the couple she was talking to.

My heart hammered against my chest when Marcos and Camilla approached her. Her eyes brightened as she gave Marcos a tight brotherly hug and same went for Camilla, they were all discussing like the family they were.
And just like that… My mind was going back to that moment years ago…The moment I found out about the Lewis’s betrayal. That awful moment.

But no…This was Rebecca, she was nothing like them.

There has to be an explanation to all this.
They were all complete… But April wasn’t here… Maybe April would be able to tell me what the hell was going on.
I took note of Rebecca dismissing the couples, making her way to my direction.

My heart was hammering. somebody tell me why my heart was hammering?! Oh wait, I knew why, it was because I was scared, scared of what her reason might be… I choose to be positive, because that was what Rebecca would do.

She finally reached me. “Emeliano. I never thought I’d see you here.” She said, loathe lacing her voice as she seemed to be trying hard not to glare.
“I can say the same. What the hell is going on Rebecca? Why are you here-”
“Isn’t it obvious?”
“No it’s not… I’m confused. What the hell is all this? I need an explanation. What’s going on.”

A smirk fell on her red lips. “Hmm, let me see… I’ll start from the part where they say… Gotcha.”

I scrunched my brows. “What?”
“I fooled you… You thought I was actually in love with you. Tsk tsk. My father was right… You were indeed easy to manipulate. You just fell for it… From the beginning. You were so easy.”

I paused. Trying to settle with what she just told me. “What are you talking about?”
“You still don’t get it? How do I make you understand? My father and I have been planning this since the beginning. Didn’t you find it weird from the start? Me coming to you on the streets… You of all people, the odd?”
