The Demon King Forbidden Bride

Chapter 34

Charlotte didn’t come back that night, I bet she must be fidgeting and scared of coming back to my apartment after betraying me. I hissed, changed the passcode, and strode to my room. Today was really something else. I don't even know what to feel or how to react to the situation. I’m feeling like this was just a bad dream that I would wake up from.

“Beep!” My cell phone vibrated and it was a call from agent Gomez, I breathed heavily and connected the call, “yes, Mr. Gomez''

“Someone is ready to take the apartment and is waiting to pay for it” I bit my lips thinking how fast he was to get a buyer. But it’s for the best, I won’t be staying here from tomorrow, so the buyer should pay up quickly and move into the house.

“That’s perfect! You can settle the formalities with lawyer Derrick. I’ll also send my bank details for the payment.” I asserted as Lawyer Derrick was now my lawyer who was in charge of my properties and store” the call ended after I conveyed the message to him. I scrolled through my phone and texted the bank details to him. It wasn’t long before I got a notification on my phone, it was just a p*****t made by the buyer, I sighed deeply and got on the bed. I drifted off to sleep shortly but abruptly sprang up from the bed as I couldn’t sleep because of the nightmare I had about Charlotte and Andrew's deceitful scheme. I lowered my head to my thigh and burst into sobbing. I was up until morning, I wasn’t able to sleep in my apartment as this was a house I shared with Charlotte. I treated her like a family but she stabbed me in the back. I don’t know if I can recover from this detriment as I feel like I’m falling into darkness. I walked down the stairs and moved to the wine cabinet, I took a glass of vodka and filled my cup. I gulped down the content hurriedly and rested my head on the table. I nearly drank myself into a stupor but luckily it was five a.m in the morning. I staggered back to my room, searched for my cell phone, and dialed the number of the moving company. I can’t get myself to stay here longer, I feel like I’m going to choke.

Atlas, the call went through, and the person that connected the call was not happy with how I disrupted his sleep.

“I’m so sorry mister, but this is urgent and I need to move my things this morning” I let out swiftly, with a lot of persuasion I was able to get the movers down to my place at seven a.m, they assisted me in packing my things into their van. I rushed back to my room and packed my things inside the luggage and took them downstairs.

“Finally!” I heaved a sigh of relief trying to suppress the throbbing headaches that might have occurred from my late night and drinking. I hailed a cab and left for my villa. It wasn’t long after I left that Charlotte arrived and attempted to type in the passcode but it creaked open. She got startled but walked into the house, she had to get her things and move in with Andrew. That was the plan. Charlotte was astounded when she saw that the whole apartment was blank. Suddenly a noise came from upstairs, she hastened her pace and followed the sound. “I’m glad she is still around, I’ll announce to her that Andrew and I will be staying together, I bet she would be mad to death, I can’t wait to see that horrifying look on her face” she smirked and mumbled to herself.

She pushed the door open and found two strange men conversing. Agent Gomez turned in the direction of the noise and arched his brow.

“I’m sorry miss, who are you?” He inquired sternly.

“I, we stay here” Charlotte blurted out confused, she can’t pin her finger on what was going on.

“This apartment has been sold out and trespassing is not tolerated” he warned and turned to the new owner of the apartment, “I’m sorry miss, I’ll handle this” he muttered and motioned Charlotte who was yet to recover out of the room.

“Excuse me, mister, where is Audrey?” She inquired with a raised brow.

“She packed out, I believe you should do so and leave here before I call the cops” she frowned and moved to her room to get her stuff.

“You shallow woman! You would seize every opportunity to taunt me and show your superiority. But that’s alright, I’ve got one thing you must cherish” she said to herself as she placed her things in the luggage. She left the apartment with a cab and went back to Andrew's house. “Hey babe, you’re back so early” she walked up to Andrew and attempted to kiss his cheek, but got pushed aside by him.

“Remember this: I only allowed you to stay here because of the pregnancy l, o don’t want you anywhere near me you disgust me” he let out with a sneer and stormed off the living room. Charlotte clenched her fist and cursed inwardly blaming me for taking up Andrew's mind.

“Screech” the cab pulled over in front of the villa, I tapped in the passcode and the gate unlocked. The movers drove their van in and began to put down my things at the same time taking them into the villa. Moments later, they were done. I doubled their p*****t because I know it’s not easy for them to skip their testing hour to be here assisting me to move into my new house.

“You don’t have to do that ma’am, it’s our job” I shrugged, “it’s nothing, thanks for the help” I asserted and bid them goodbye, soon the van disappeared from the district, I let out a deep sigh and stepped back into my villa.
