Just Lust (Montemayor Series 4)

Chapter23: Kiss

Ch. 23 / 37 Sep 18, 2024

That afternoon, we were dismissed, and I kept Cfirst Linton from disturbing his work.

I was about to go to the parking lot when I suddenly fainted. The feeling grew cold, and my vision gradually blurred.

"F-Fuck." I was still insulted, but I also immediately lost consciousness. I still heard a familiar voice.

I feel like I'm going to throw up that I don't know. My head and body ached.

Am I in my room? Who brought me here? Suddenly, the door opened, and Jenn entered.

"You're awake! Are you okay?"

I nodded and leaned my head on the backrest.

"Who brought me here?"

"Jedd and Athena said it was good that they saw you when you lost consciousness."

I can't believe it was Jedd and Athena who brought me here. Because my ex is Jedd and Athena is jealous of me. But that was then.

"Trust me, Kylie, are you pregnant?"

"What?" I was shocked. She sat down next to me.

"Maybe you're pregnant? Are you dizzy?"

I immediately shook but was overwhelmed by a strange nervousness.

"I-I'm not sure. I had my period this month, didn't I? Besides, I'm just dizzy now."

She took a deep breath. "I thought you were pregnant."

"No." I even stared at her.

"Did you call Clinton about this?" I ask.

She shook his head. "No, I don't have his number."

My chest was immediately relieved. I don't want to disturb him as much, especially since he does much for their company.

That night, I wondered why Clinton hadn't texted me. I was so bored I put on a dress and texted Jenn to meet me at Nitelite. It's only once. I'm not going to spend the night.

I put lipstick on my lips when my cell phone rang. My heart leaped as Clinton's name came out of there.

"Where are you?" he asked me.

My forehead furrowed because he seemed angry with me.

"In the condo, why?"

He was silent for a few minutes on the other line.

"I saw the pictures, Nicole."

his voice was full of emphasis in pronouncing it.

My forehead furrowed. "What pictures of Clinton?"

He was devalued on the other line.

"I don't know what to say, Nicole. I am fucking so stressed about the company. Then I'll see pictures of you with Jedd. What the fuck Nicole!" he said hoarsely, looking restrained, and I heard a break in his line.

I blinked and stumbled over what he said. What is Jedd? What pictures?

"C-Clinton, I don't know what you're talking about! What pictures ?!" my voice was raspy with mixed emotions.

"Shit! Someone sent me a picture of you with Jedd. He's carrying you right into your condo!! What am I to you, huh? Why do you always hurt me like this? First time I get severe but-- fuck! "I heard a crack again.

I almost crushed my cellphone because I didn't know the pictures! If what he means is the one earlier when I lost my mind with Athena, Jedd's girlfriend!

"Clinton l-look." I've had my hair pulled back because I'm already frustrated. That is not true! Whoever took the picture and passed it on to Clinton, I don't know his motive.

"Jedd just drove me here to the condo, okay?"

"Drove, huh? Fuck it!"

"Clinton. Let's talk. Let's talk about this."

"You two are fucking so sweet in the picture. You Hug him." He said.

"What, let me explain! Let's talk, okay?"

"You think I can see you now? I am fucking jealous and mad, Nicole! You know me."

I close my eyes tightly because my head hurts again.

"Fine. Nitelite tonight," he said without emotion and turned off the call.

I could feel the pain in my chest so much that it seemed to tear. I can no longer imagine who sent Clinton, then. All I want is to talk to him now.

After I got ready, I drove to Nitelite. I know he can't talk when angry because he hurts when he's angry. He didn't hurt me physically, but he poured out some resentment. He breaks and punches equipment. So maybe he just thought of Nitelite because perhaps his cousin and someone were there. At least he will control his anger.

I am unable to greet those who greet me. The beating of my chest matched the strength of the music here inside.

I immediately went to Clinton, my usual place. At the other table, I saw Brandon and Jenn.

In their usual place, I saw Clinton alone. My forehead furrowed as he held a cigarette, and his serious face focused on the drink in his gaze.

His aura gave me shivers. He poured the beer in front of him, and I saw the movement of his Adam's apple.

I couldn't come close, so I was at Jenn's table first.

Jenn immediately looked at me as I sat beside her, facing Clinton. He was in the dark, so I didn't know if he could see me.

"Oh, Kylie! Clinton is there, oh!"

I told Jenn what happened, so she even wondered who had posted the pic of Clinton. And why isn't Athena in the picture? Because Clinton was not mentioned at all.

I know Clinton he doesn't lie. He will be even franker with you than he will lie. It's up to the person who passed all the blame. He has a motive for Clinton and me to break up!

"Come closer! Tell him!" Jenn pushes me, so I stare at her.

When I looked back at Clinton, He had been looking at me first.

I can almost swallow my saliva. I was about to stand up when I saw a group of women at the other table pushing a woman familiar to me.

My forehead furrowed as he went to Clinton, seemingly embarrassed. Clinton looked at her coldly, apparently not interested in her.

But I was even more surprised when she slowly approached Clinton and kissed him. My eyes widened suddenly, and a strange pain gradually enveloped my heart.

Jenn was also smitten next to me, and the groups of women who pushed the woman to kiss Clinton were even screaming.

I thought that was it, but I was even more surprised when I confirmed that Shan Shan had kissed Clinton.

"Fuck! Isn't that the transferee ?! Shantal Dimaano!She is Shameless!"

Jenn's words echoed, and I remembered what Cassy had told me: Clinton's first love was back.

Damn it! Shan Shan and Shantal are one! Even worse, here he is in front of me, kissing Clinton.

I thought it was the climax of the scene, but not yet.

Shantal was about to separate from the kiss, but I saw Clinton holding her neck, and they kissed more deeply.

"The fuck ?!" Brandon was shocked at the sight.

Jenn immediately hugged me and tried to avert my gaze, but I didn't.

I want to see their kiss. I want to feel how hurt I feel, like I want to die from the disease.

Gradually, my tears fell, but I never wiped them away.

My world seemed to collapse, but I tried to stand still.

"K-Kylie." Jenn held my hand.

I wiped away my tears' steady flow.

"I'm going home." I forced a smile as my tears flowed.
