A Contracted Affair. Eighty
Tristan povThe whole thing is messing with me badly, I can't believe what's going on and I hate that it's getting to me badly. Why is all these happening now? It seems like Lyla is doing all this intentionally because why hasn't she come to explain herself to me, because I need to know how she rose from the dead.“I need to see her myself and confirm all these.” I placed my hand on my head tiredly as I sat on the bed. I suddenly found myself remembering the look on Adriana’s face earlier on the dining, she looked really startled by my reaction. Just when I was thinking about the whole thing I heard my phone ring. I picked up my phone to see the caller but surprisingly it was an unknown number. I wonder who it is now. I was about to ditch the call when I suddenly remembered what’s going on and how the news of Lyla is flying around the house. She might be the one calling. I decided to pick the call, the moment I picked the call I waited to hear the voice of the person first. “Good d

Lyla povI can’t believe my return has shaken them so much that he had to return from his honeymoon, looks like I still have his control button. I picked up my glass of wine and gulped it as I couldn’t help but laugh. The whole thing was so funny to me because the young lady he’s married to don’t know the kind of bond we share, she might be his wife now but I remain the real love of his life. “Let her just watch and see how he’ll come running to me when he finds out where I am.” I laughed out loud with my legs crossed as I thought about the look on his face when he will be on his knees begging me to come back to his life and apologize for thinking I was dead, though I planned the whole thing. “This feels so good.” I muttered to myself feeling on top of the moon. I suddenly remembered the smile on his face when he was getting married to that good for nothing girl. He looked a little too happy and I’m not okay with that. “Oh, I need to forget that day because I might lose it.” I said

Tristan pov It's been days already and suddenly the news of Lyla’s return had died down, I got closer to Adriana. I got to know her better and I found myself getting drawn to her even more. She's been a breath of fresh air to my family, now everyone is always happy because she makes it happen. “I have to keep my distance, and don't know what's wrong with me anymore.” I muttered to myself when I found myself starting at her with a bright smile on my face. I promised Lyla I would never love anyone else except her but after staying indoor with Adriana I realized I have started breaking the promise. “Are you okay?” Adriana asked me with a bright smile on her face. I removed my face immediately because that smile draws me closer to her everytime. “Yeah, I'm good. I just need to use the toilet.” I replied her and stood up from the bed. The moment I got to the bathroom I could breath well. “Get a hold of yourself Tristan.” I muttered. Ever since we got back from our honeymoon, none o

Lyla PovIt's been days already and Tristan has not bothered to search for me, I can't believe it. I couldn't stop pacing around the room worriedly, I turned to look at Diego still sleeping after the hot night we had together. “Hey.” I went to wake him up because I need someone to talk to right now. He opened his eyes a little and rubbed them too tiredly.“What's going on? Why do you look worried?” He asked me while still rubbing his eyes. I stared at him angrily and hissed. “How do you expect me to fall in love with you when you don't even care about me, and have been brainstorming here but you were just there sleeping comfortably.” I said to him angrily with my hands folded across my chest. Diego immediately got up from the bed so that he can know what's wrong. He looked like actually cares but I can never be with him, he's only going to be body warmer nothing more. “Talk to me, what's going on?” Diego asked me. I sat down on the couch and picked up my phone.“It’s too late to

Tristan pov I can't believe what I just heard, I checked the caller again to confirm if I was really talking to Lyla. Adriana stopped shat she was doing when she saw how worried I looked on the call. “You're good?” Adriana asked me and without replying her I walked out of the kitchen. I didn't know what to tell her and I was trying not to ruin her mood with the Lyla conversation so I had to leave the kitchen but I hope she sees it that way and not think I was snubbing her questions. “Tristan.” My mom called with a bright smile as she was approaching the kitchen but I couldn't reply her. I left the house and started the car immediately. Lyla told me to meet her at a restaurant if I want to confirm she's really alive. While I was driving to go see her I couldn't believe I was hoping it was a spam call or someone else just trying to prank me. “There's no way Lyla is really alive.” I muttered to myself and increased the cat speed. Adriana and everyone at hok kept calling he on phone

Tristan povLyla was very upset with me that she couldn't gage any other conversation. She stood up and left angrily. I can't believe I told her such a thing. I sat down still on the same chair, unable to move or say a word but what shocked me the most is that I didn't regret saying anything to her. “She must be really pissed.” I muttered to myself and remembered the disappointment in her eyes after what I said. Lyla has never been the persistent type of person with what I have to her dye will never bother me again. I finally had the strength to stand up, so I stood up and walked out of the hotel, the moment I was out I sent a message to the driver to come pick the car while I followed a cab back home. After what happened just now I don't think I'm in the right frame of mind to drive myself back home. While the cab was driving me back to the house I heard my phone ring, as just as I thought it was Adriana, I couldn't bring myself to pick the call so I decided not to pick but instea

Adriana povI don't know what git me angry the more, was it because he went to see Lyla without telling us about it, or the fact that he lied when they asked him. I was mad because the Tristan I know doesn't care about anything or anyone, he would say the truth no matter what but this time he lied. I got to the room and slammed the door angrily. I didn't know if I had the right to be angry or not, but I couldn't help it. When I got to the room I sat on the bed and heaved a sigh. I thought maybe I was overreacting but the whole thing was booster when I saw his parents reaction too. I really needed someone to tell everything to, I need someone that'll be on my side no matter what. I brought out my phone and dialed Kristina’s number, then I suddenly remembered what was written on the contract before I signed it. “There just be no third party even in a misunderstanding.” I dropped my phone when I remembered this line. Then I looked outside through the window. I suddenly felt relieved

Adriana povHearing what Tristan said made me realize that Lyla might be back for good this time and ready to do whatever it takes to get Tristan back. She has been moving around and making it known to people already that she is alive and healthy, very soon she'll go to the media for a proper interview and that when I come in, everyone will now see me as the bad person and some might think I have a hand in her disappearance. I turned to look at Tristan who still looked shocked while staring at the picture. “We just had a conversation, and this hug, she forced it.” While Tristan was married to Lyla for year's there's never been rumors about him cheating and with this picture Lyla might make it known to the world that Triatan is still in love with her.“Why is Lyla doing this?” Tristan asked. Still very surprised. I Was still unable to say anything to him because I judged him without hearing his side of the story first. While we were sitting quietly in the room with Tristan asking r
