I glared at the phone after I dropped the call on Kendrix, I knew I shouldn't be mad at him. he was working but for some reason, I was kind of pissed that he was out of the country and might not be back until the next weekend, this wasn't how I pictured today would end, I spent the whole day sleeping in hopes that he would be back and we will continue from where we left off but now, I have to wait for a whole week before I can see him again. So not what I wanted and I couldn't even pretend that it didn't make me feel sad and unwanted, he could have delegated duties.
"Of all the times to get a reason to travel, of all the times for an emergency situation to occur,"
I let out with a pout, now that I slept throughout the day, I might not be able to get any sleep, which made everything worse for me because now I would spend the whole night pinning for him while he was all the way in Dilgem, he would probably be too busy to even think of me. I should not be acting like this, I already knew he was a hard-working man, our whole relationship started because of his work.
"I hate it here,"
I let out and laid on my bed, I couldn't even pray for sleep to come because I damn well knew I wasn't going to get any sleep tonight, sucks to be me right now. I was still turning and hoping for sleep to come when my phone rang. I quickly took it thinking it was Kendrix calling me back, I should have checked because my mood got even worse when I heard the voice over the phone.
"Why are you calling me so late, Jordan? I thought I told you never to call me again?"
I let out. I was already not in a good mood and his call just made it worse.
"Relax, you will thank me for the information that I am about to give you,"
I knew better than to get my hopes up with Jordan, he was always full of craps and this would not be any way different.
"Tell me what the fuck this is about or I am going to hang up, you have two minutes,"
I told him. I didn't know why I felt the need to even give him the chance to talk to me but what would it cost me?
"Well, I know your supposed mate traveled out of the country today,"
He let out. I rolled my eyes, what did he expect me to do? Clap for him for telling me something I already know?
"And so?"
"You didn't ask him what he went there to do? Did he tell you what took him out of your country or are you not supposed to know?"
He asked.
"He told me, if that's what you want to know, I am aware he left the country,"
I let out.
"Right, he told you where he went but I bet he didn't tell you his reasons for going over there or did he? I doubt you would be so calm if you knew why he was in Dilgem,"
Jordan said and I didn't like how he was making it sound like Ken had other motives for going to Dilgem, he told me an emergency came up that he had to deal with personally and I didn't for once doubt what he said and should not doubt him just because of what Jordan was saying.
"Jordan, Ken went to Dilgem for work and that's all you need to know, you don't have to call me and be a snitch because I already know what my man is up to,"
I told him and he suddenly started laughing, I hated his laugh so much, I couldn't stand him, how could he be the brother of the man I love when they are both so different, Ken's laugh alone could make my day bright, yet hearing Jordan laugh over the phone made my blood boil in anger.
"Stop laughing like an idiot Jordan, I don't have time for you, I am just going to hang up,"
I let out and was going to do just that but then he stopped me.
"Don't hang up, I have cool information for you,"
"What kind of information will a man like you have for me? Jordan? I don't think you are in the right place to be giving me information,"
I told him but I couldn't deny that I wanted him to get whatever he had to say out loud. I was sure it would be some bullshit but I still wanted to hear and that's why I didn't hang up this time.
"Well, I have cool information and I am willing to share it with you for free,"
"Just say whatever you have to say and stop beating about the bush,"
I let out. his voice was just pissing me off.
"Your so-called mate doesn't want you or like you, he is just playing you, he has no good intentions towards you, all he wants from you is what your dad can give him, oh, and your body,"
I should have known that's what the fucker had to say, it was my fault for listening to him.
"I should have known this was what you had to say, my fault for giving you a listening ear,"
"I am telling you that fucker is playing with you, I don't know why you are not seeing it,"
Jordan said. I shook my head. did he really think I would believe what he was saying? I already knew what kind of relationship I had with Ken and I didn't need Jordan to spell that out, even though now after what happened last night and what I discovered, our relationship would definitely change for the better and not the way Jordan was thinking, I was sure of it.
"Jordan, listen, I don't care about you and your opinion about my relationship with your brother, why would I believe your words?"
"You will have to believe what I am saying, I know my brother, he has only ever liked one woman and that woman is who he went to meet in Dilgem, forget whatever story he cooked for you, he is just using you for sex and also for the help your father can give him,"
Jordan revealed.
"What? What woman are you talking about? Ken doesn't have another woman,"
I let out.
"You really believe him? Have you ever heard of Veronica? She is the woman my brother has always loved. He ran to Dilgem the minute he heard that she was there. Do you really believe a work emergency would take a whole CEO to another country during the weekend? He is the owner of the company, he can delegate duties if he really cares about you,"
I was falling for what the fucker was saying and it was all wrong.
"I don't have to listen to anything you are saying, Ken has no reason to lie to me, I understand what kind of relationship I have with him, and the words you are saying right now does not change anything, I shouldn't even be listening to you and you should never call me again,"
I let out in a firm voice. There was no reason to doubt Ken, if he had a woman, he would have clearly stayed it in our contract and made it known that he belonged to someone else. Why would he keep me in his house when he has someone else?
"Don't say I didn't tell you. You know what, you can always find out later, maybe you like to find out the hard way that he doesn't rate you, have a good night's rest,"
He said and hung up on me, I glared at the phone after he hung up.
"I am not going to believe what he just said, Jordan is a liar and a manipulative bastard, Ken hasn't done anything that will make me lose my trust in him,"
I told myself as I laid back on the bed. The only people whose words I should believe are mine and that of Ken. Just because he wasn't here now doesn't mean I have to start doubting him. We have a contract and he would not break it so easily. With that thought in mind, I finally was able to relax, I still wasn't able to get any sleep so I spent the whole night on my phone, strolling through social media and also, I watched a few medical documentaries and just seeing those made me miss working. I decided that once Rose's wedding was over, I would look for a cool hospital near home and apply for a job. I needed to keep working and not just stay idle, I needed to be a mate worthy of a future alpha king.
