False Love After BetrayalChapter 1
I stood still in front of the cinema, feeling the cold wind made me shiver. It was Valentine's Day and I was patiently waiting for Hendrix Jennings to arrive so we could celebrate this special day.
I had already called him four times, but he didn't respond. When I tried for the fifth time, he finally answered the call.
"Hey, the movie has already started for two hours. Where are you?" I asked, puzzled.
"I'm so sorry, but I forgot we have an appointment tonight," Hendrix reasoned on the other line.
The background noise on the other line was a bit noisy, almost making him almost not audible.
I closed my eyes and added, "Gosh. We booked movie tickets a week ago. How did you forget it? I've been looking forward to this movie premiere for a long time, yet you just forget."
"That's why I want to apologize," Hendrix replied. "I am so sorry, but I am a little busy here. Maybe we can talk about it later."
Suddenly, a charming female voice was heard on the other line, confusing me a lot.
"Hendrix, the doctor, had just called us," said the woman.
However, I couldn't hear further as the call suddenly ended, leaving only the busy beeping sound.
I decided to open my Instagram account to check.
Right there and then, I saw Whitney Moore, who had posted a photo.
Whitney captioned it, [I am on cloud nine when someone has to accompany me when I am sick.]
As I carefully checked the photo, I saw Whitney, with whom she had hung an IV Drip in the hospital corridor. On the side, I glimpsed Hendrix smiling.
That photo of them together made my heart almost skip a beat.
Whitney was exceptional. She was the only person who could let Hendrix cancel all his appointments for her and he wouldn't be like that to others, even to me.
During Whitney's birthday celebration, Hendrix gifted her a pink diamond ring. She was that special to him.
Right after I found their photo together, I was in a rage. I even questioned Hendrix to clarify their score.
However, Hendrix only blamed me for making a fuss and said that he and Whitney were just friends and had no relationships. It was just that Whitney had liked the ring for a long time.
When he saw that I was unconvinced by his words, he coldly said, "Come on, can you not be too sensitive enough?"
Hendrix and I didn't speak for half a month when that happened. And it wasn't like this before.
