Part 44
The last chapter will be out today! What do you think will happen?

/Sara's POV/



When I found out that Edward was so serious about his son that he took them to meet his parents I had to do something. All these years I was able to lie and keep him all to myself but that Aria had to ruin everything. My face flamed in anger as soon as I remembered how he had the audacity cheat on me and later throw me out of the house as if it was my fault. Even after all the things he did I was still crazy about him. I knew that I had to do something to get him back and it would be my final shot.




I tried not to make any sound as I sneaked in his bedroom. He was still asleep and as expected his phone was lying on the nightstand.




"So predictable" I mumbled under my breath as I leaned forward to pick the phone. He suddenly turned around in his sleep and I froze, scared that he will catch me in the act. Instead, he puffed a breath.





Clutching the phone tightly in my hand I tiptoed out of the room. If there was one thing any girl hates the most is another woman. And Aria would exactly have the taste of it. Edward was in love with her, it was clear on his face when he couldn't stop cursing Ashton just for dating her. Every second that girl came back in his life I felt the pain of losing him but not anymore. It was her turn.




I sat on the couch, tucked to my legs under my hips and unlocked his phone. As expected his last call was to her and I pressed on the icon. It rang for a few seconds before I ended the call. She immediately called back but I did not receive it. Prompting her to drop in was the only thing that I could do without raising any suspicions. The screen lighted up with her message that she was worried and was going to check-in.




I exhaled the breath I was holding and rushed back to his room after clearing the call history and the message. Thankfully he was still sleeping so I had no problem in rummaging through his cupboard, trying to find one of his shirts when my eyes fell on the small box. I opened it only to find the engagement ring he gave to me and quickly slipped it on. Details were always helpful.





Everything I did was for us because I was in love with him. He'll understand. He has to. With that thought, I slipped out of his room unnoticed.




Walking inside the guest room I pulled the dress off and buttoned his shirt. I still could not believe that I was not able to seduce him last night. He was very adamant on making me sleep on the couch even after I tried to do everything I could. That made me more angry on Aria.




I had already turn off the bell so that it would not wake up Edward. A few minutes later I drank the coffee and decided to finally put the plan in action. As I was in the middle of messing up my hair the knock went off. I exhaled fully knowing it was Aria on the other side of the door.




I slowly took my steps towards the door and pulled it open purposely blinking my eyes. Aria froze noticing me and gawked for a few seconds. Internally I smirked fully knowing that my plan was finally working. She totally bought it. Who wouldn't?





"Aria" I yawned, trying to blink my eyes open. She was still motionless, her eyes wide and face white as a sheet. It gave me immense joy to see how she was experiencing the pain I had.




"It's too early what are you doing here?"




She cleared her throat, "Sorry but what the hell are you doing here?"




Oh, she got that spunk alright. No wonder Edward fell for her I thought with my lips pressed together.




"Excuse me?" My shrill voice made her grit her teeth together.





"This is my fiance's house so of course, I'm here" I snorted crossing my arms against my chest. It was to emphasize that I was in his shirt but she already noticed that.





"Fiancee?" She huffed shaking her head like it was some joke which irked me.





"He broke up with you"




At her confidence, I deterred a bit and wanted to back off but I didn't. I felt the ring digging in my chest so I forwarded my hand towards her.





"That explains the ring then."




Her mouth fell open at that and she swallowed, still in denial. I could see her eyes stinging but she was fighting her tears so maybe I did have an effect on her.





"Aria" I softly said, "Edward will always come back to me that's how it has been since past few years. You are not special just because you slept with him in this house"





Her eyes widened at that and she ducked her head down.




"Yes I know" I cleared my throat, "He tells me everything so don't think you are special just because he said some special words to you-"




"I want to talk to him," She said cutting me off, a fierce tone in her voice




I rolled my eyes, "He's sleeping now come back later"




"That's not possible I got a call-"




"See you later Aria" I slammed the door in her face before she could say anything else. Aria waited there for a few seconds before she walked away which made me exhale a sigh of relief.



Edward walked down the stairs a few minutes later, sleep rumpled and a frown on his face. He had his phone with him as he angrily stepped down and I gulped. Did he find out?





"What did you say to her?" He yelled making me flinch and take a step back. I had never seen him raging mad like that maybe when he found out that I hid his son from him but not this intense.






I innocently blinked adjusting my dress when I noticed that I was still wearing the ring. This was not going to go down well.





"Who?"




His jaw was clenched as he took a step ahead like the predator, "You know who I am talking about Sara. When I woke up I thought I was just hearing things but when I saw Aria's car through the window I knew that she was here. She is not lifting my calls. What did you say to her?"





"The truth" I meekly whispered, tilting my head up to meet his eyes.




"And what is that?"




"She asked if you were sleeping and I said yes. That's all" I lied, licking my lips nervously. His eyes were digging into me like he didn't believe a word I said. Just then his eyes shifted towards the shiny ring and he narrowed his eyes.





"Where the fuck did you find it?"




"It's mine" I weakly said tucking my hand closer to my chest.




He shook his head, the pulse ticking in his neck, "It was but not anymore. I made it clear last night-" He cut himself off and a look of realisation dawned on his face and he exhaled sharply, "You fucking lied to her, didn't you? That's why you are wearing the ring!"





I weakly shook my head, "No, no I-"




"What is wrong with you? Why can't you get it through that I don't feel anything towards you and I never will? Its Aria! It's always been Aria and you fucking knew it very well but still agreed to marry me."





His chest heaved up and down, breathing ragged and eyes red like a volcano. Edward had his fists clenched on either side of his body like he was controlling himself from saying anything else. What more could he say they will hurt me? I thought bitterly remembering all the things I did just to keep him.




At those memories flashing in my head something snapped. I couldn't stand there and hear how much he didn't like me when I was madly in love with him. It pained me beyond measure.





"Because I had hope!" I screamed which made him stunned.




Unable to stop myself I continued, "I was so fucking in love with you that I lied about everything. I thought that having a baby would keep you happy so I lied but that didn't work so I lied of losing it again hoping that it will make you feel something towards me. Nothing! All those things I did for you never worked, did they?"





As he widened his eyes I realised what I said. That was the biggest secret I was keeping to myself. In the flow of anger, I blurted it out. All those years ago when he was devastated about Aria I had to make him happy so I lied about being pregnant. It drove him even more towards alcohol as he didn't want that responsibility. To make him happy I lied about the abortion but something inside me twisted and I blamed it on him. It worked because he was so guilty about losing the child that he promised to be on my side forever and proposed.





His shoulders sagged as he whispered in to thin air, "W-what?"





"You lied? You lied about being pregnant?"




I didn't meet his eyes, moving my eyes away as I felt tears and shame building inside me. It felt terrible but I needed him in my life more than anything. He was the only man I loved.





He sharply inhaled, "Sara look at me"




"No"



"Sara"



I stared at him and noticed that his eyes were scary red and jaw tight. At that moment I knew that it was over. Everything I will say or do would mean nothing to him because of how enraged he seemed.




"How could you do that to me? You knew I was suffering and you added to the pain. How could you?" His voice was cracked like he was barely holding it.





My tears flowed down my cheeks and I tried to inch towards him but he pulled back. It stung.





"I'm sorry I just- I am sorry"




He chuckled bitterly, "That's all I've been hearing from you and frankly it has no meaning. I'm done. I don't want you to see you. Ever. Get out"





"Atleast listen to me-"




"Don't make me call the security Sara. Get out!" He raised his voice, the one that made me jolt suddenly. Swallowing my tears I removed the ring from my finger and placed it on the table but he did not have any emotion at that, his face cold.




Staring at him one last time I walked away promising myself to never see him again.
