Chapter 11: Argument And Pain

Nathan sat down in his office as he signed on each document that was left on the table by his assistant. He had missed a lot of work and now he was stuck on his seat with lots of work piled up.

He looked up on seeing his assistant enter, then looking at the hesitant look on his assistant he raised an eyebrow and his eyes seemed to be able to see through his soul.

“Speak up!” He commanded, then leaned back comfortably.

The assistant, Adams bated his eyes and then opened his mouth to report, “Boss, it’s about what you tasked me to find out.” He stopped for a second then checked Nathan’s reaction and seeing him look calm, he cleared his throat and then continued, “Sir Jesse truly went to Spain with his manager. But, I don’t know if it’s eloping or they went for a secret deal as I still couldn’t find it in his itinerary that he has any concert or anything to do there!”

Assistant Caleb said it all then sneaked a look at Nathan’s face and was surprised to see how calm his boss looked. His boss had always been one who was obsessed with Jesse or so he thought. Anytime he brought any report on Sir Jesse, Nathan would always react differently but now he was confused. Then he thought, maybe it’s because of the recent disappointment or is it about Evans?!

“Oh! Okay, keep our men out, he will come back when he wishes too. It’s fine!” Nathan said surprising Asst Adams alots.

He looked at Nathan in a daze and suddenly felt that he hadn’t known his boss so well after all. How come he was so calm?!

“Anything else?!” Nathan asked the dazed assistant coldly and the assistant immediately shook his head then staggered out of his office.

Nathan watched his assistant stagger out, then suddenly threw the pen he was holding on the wall. He covered his face and then pinched his nose in frustration. How could he be calm?! He wasn’t calm at all, he didn’t feel good.

This man was the man he had come to love and had protected for long. He had given him everything he wanted and was possessive of, but now he is told he ran off with someone to Spain and there is even a recording to prove that but—

He didn’t want to believe it! He wouldn’t believe it until Jesse came back and said it himself. He knew he was weak and crazy, and if it was the mindset he was in days ago, he would have preferred to go to Spain and drag Jesse back, but— Evans….

“Darn it! These two brothers will be the death of me!” He muttered under bated breath and with frustration loosen his tie and took another pen from the pen holder then continued working on signing the documents.

Meanwhile, Evans stood in shock in front of Megan. His jaw was almost broken from being opened in shock. He looked at the girl he called his best friend in shock, then he suddenly felt anger. He had always been gentle with Megan and had never insulted her in any way but being called a slut by her is something he will never forget.

He clenched his fist and looked angrily, “What are you talking about?!” He asked in a hoarse voice.

Megan who was also blinded by rage to see that what she said was wrong also felt angry seeing Evans look at her with anger, with frustration, she pointed at him and said, “You aren’t?! I am right though! You slept with him right?! I know you too well and I can see it, you gave yourself to that man so cheaply, are you that fucking desperate for him? Is it up to that?!” She glared at him sharply after asking the questions.

Evans was stunned by her questions, but then he understood what she was talking about. He clenched his fist then swallowed hard and looked to the side, with a side-looped smile that contained self mock. “You are right! If what I did is considered being a slut, then I am. I will accept that.” He said bitterly, then without giving another word for looking at Megan he began walking off.

Megan was surprised then she realized that he had confirmed it, the anger in her exploded and jealousy filled her to the brim, and felt so betrayed even when she knew clearly that she was not together with him but she still felt disgusted and angry that he had been touched by someone she hates so much. Yes, Megan secretly hates Nathan taking all of Evans's attention and love.

“Stop! Is that all you have to say?! You won’t deny it? Deny it! I want you to deny it, Evans!” She screamed anxiously and thank goodness where they were silent and there were barely people passing.

Evans stopped and clenched his fist In frustration then turned around to face her, “Yes, this slut is gay! Yes, this slut is in love with my brother’s boyfriend, yes, this slut seduced him and also slept with him! So what?!” Evans said calmly but only he knew what he was feeling inside of him.

He felt shitty and pained when saying that but that was the truth of pursuing his obsession when he finally had the chance to be also called slutty then he agreed to the title, Evans Hart is a big-time slut!

After he was done talking, he snorted then walked off leaving Megan stunned as she watched his back. She knew she had crossed the line and the gentle Evans had snapped.

She bit her lips when she couldn't see him again, then fell on her knees, buried her face in between her knees, and let out a frustrated cry.

“Why?! Why wouldn't you love me?! Why go after someone who doesn't even see you? He is so shameless to take advantage of you, can't you see it? Why are fucking gay?!” She kept muttering in between her cries.

She couldn't understand why Evans was so insistent on that bastard named Nathan, and also it's all Jesse’s fault!

If he had stayed obediently with Nathan then Evans wouldn't think about Nathan again. It's all that lusty idiot, Jesse’s fault!

“I hate him so much, I hate them all!” She ranted all alone.

Meanwhile, Evans walked absent-mindedly to his hostel, he climbed the stairs and opened the door to his room with his key, seeing the room empty. He knew that his roommates were either having fun outside or in classes, but he was glad they were not there.

He dropped his bag on his bed, pulled off his clothes and walked straight to the bathroom. He stood under the shower and let it wash away the exhaustion. He had faced too much this week and had made lots of decisions. He had also taken a step he knew was risky, but that was the only chance he had so he grabbed it.

After washing up, he climbed on top of the bed without doing anything more, his mind was blank and all he did was lie down and look at the white ceiling in a daze then he fell asleep.

“Ring!”

Not quite long after he fell asleep, he was woken up by the ringing of his phone. Evans' eyes snapped open and he picked it up.

“You useless son! Come home right now!”
