Sugar Dating with CEO

194 One More Chance

“Club?”

“I knew from the start that you never loved me, I knew we were just a contract. I was the fool for crossing that line. That’s why I decided to leave you, wasn’t my decision the right one?”

Arthur was silent for a moment, both of them were wrong. Arthur’s overly attentive attitude and seeming love for Kalea certainly made the girl more hopeful. Maybe Kalea’s decision to leave was right, but Arthur did not want her to. Arthur’s gray eyes were sad again, feeling deeply guilty.

“But I don’t want you to go,” Arthur shook his head softly.

“You’re selfish.”

Arthur smiled bitterly. “You’re right. Lea, I’ve stopped playing with other women and don’t go to clubs anymore, I’ve left all that behind since you left. I keep looking for you, I’m confused why you suddenly disappeared when our relationship seemed fine.””

“You’re the only one who thinks everything is fine. You rarely come home when all I have is you, the father of this baby. That nonsense with your form of responsibility, you make me laugh, Arthur,” Kalea said, letting her heart out. She looked at Arthur just as hurt though she forced a smile. “After this baby is born, you’re going to leave us too, right? With an innocent face saying that, embracing another woman and making out intimately.”

Kalea’s last sentence made Arthur look up with a very surprised expression. He still remembered the incident, and did not expect Kalea to know about it. “Were you there?”

“I don’t know why I thought to look for you at the club. And then I had to see and hear something so painful. Never mind, it’s all in the past. I don’t care anymore,” Kalea said with a sad laugh. Sad about her past life.

“Lea, I’m sorry. I admitted my mistake, and after that I realized-”

.....

“Regret comes too late, doesn’t it? Live like Arthur Jefferson used to, even before me. I’ve done you no good at all, only adds problem to your life,” Kalea cut in, looking at Arthur seriously, even though her heart was still hurting.

“No, you’ve never added to my problems. I’m the one who’s like that! I’m going to be a better man, please give me a chance, I beg you,” Arthur pleaded pleadingly, moving from his seat to Kalea’s side. The brunette girl wanted to move away but Arthur was already holding her hand although it did not last long because Kalea brushed him off roughly.

“Don’t touch me, you’re not this kind of person, Arthur! And don’t stay here, your work is more important.”

“You’re more important. Since you left, I can’t work properly. So come back, everyone’s waiting for you. Zeline, she misses you a lot,” Arthur said in a soft and gentle voice, hoping Kalea would melt a little. “You should know how she is right now. She’s had a terrible thing.”

A terrible thing? Kalea’s eyes rounded, worry beginning to rumble in her chest. Zeline, Zeline had never been mean to her. That girl was rude and sometimes her words were hurtful but Zeline was basically a kind, loyal, and hardworking girl. Zeline’s fate, which was not much different from Kalea’s, made Kalea seem to have a friend who was in the same boat and could understand each other. Even at the club, the blonde girl still favored her over Arthur’s distress.

“A terrible thing? What happened to her?” Kalea asked.

“She’s being held captive by her sugar daddy, maybe if Dariel doesn’t come soon, she’ll die,” Arthur replied, leaving Kalea in shock.

“So what’s her condition now? I have to meet her!” Kalea moved from her seat, her mind now focused only on Zeline.

“Lea, calm down, she’s fine now!” Arthur pulled Kalea’s hand to sit back down, he was surprised to see that she was already in tears. Arthur could not resist hugging his sugar baby. “Zeline is fine, calm down.”

Kalea could not imagine being in Zeline’s shoes. Even though all this time her friend had always been treated harshly by her sugar daddy but still did not make her. She did not expect it to come to this. “Why is she being kept? What did she do wrong?” asked Kalea, not even paying attention to Arthur who was hugging her.

“Dante knew that Zeline had a sugar daddy other than him. At the time, Zeline wanted to end the contract between them,” Arthur replied, tightening his embrace and gently stroking Kalea’s back. He do not know if this was an opportunity or not, but Arthur was very happy to be able to embrace the body of the woman he loved. Pouring out his immense longing in that embrace.

Kalea closed her eyes briefly, trying to regain her composure as Arthur said Zeline was fine. “Let go of me. We don’t have a relationship anymore either.”

“I never ended it,” Arthur retorted as he released the hug. His forehead wrinkled at Kalea’s one-sided remark.

“Since I left, our relationship is over.”

“No.”

“Yes!”

“Lea, please. Give me another chance,” Arthur pleaded tirelessly.

Kalea did not seem to falter, looking at Arthur lazily. “It’s useless, Mr. Jefferson. You’re just wasting your time. How long are you going to be here? What about your work?”

“You keep mentioning my job, you still care about me, don’t you?” Arthur’s teasing was getting annoying again.

Kalea rolled her eyes. “I don’t think we have anything important to talk about, go home.”

“Oh, come on, Lea! About my work, I can still handle it here. You don’t have to worry.”

“I’m not worried.”

“You worry, you still love me.”

“No!”

“So you love that guy with the hair the color of blood?” Arthur asked, Kalea looked back at Arthur with one eyebrow raised.

“Why do you want to know so badly?”

“What is your relationship with that man?”

“None of your business,” Kalea snorted irritably, the conversation was becoming a waste of time. Kalea did not want to spend too long with this man and wanted to see Kai immediately. “How long are you going to be here? I want to go.”

“Until you answer how you got to know that man.”

“He has a name, and you’ve already made his acquaintance,” Kalea said, looking at Arthur sarcastically. Kalea sighed heavily, before being forced to answer Arthur’s stubborn question. “He’s the one who gave me the favor of staying here. Kai is a really nice, humorous, and warm guy. My life feels more comfortable after meeting him,” Kalea said with a faint smile adorning her beautiful face.

Meanwhile, Arthur regretted asking. It would be a lie to say he was not hurt after hearing that. It never hurt this much to know that there was a better man than him for Kalea. Because Kalea had never been close to any man other than him. And maybe this is how Kalea felt when she saw him making out with another woman.

Arthur looked down, with a bitter smile etched on his lips that made Kalea glance at him. “I’m sorry, having me in your life just makes you suffer more.”

“Not really. There are some things that make me want to thank you. Because if it wasn’t for you, I don’t know how I would live tomorrow when my money was used up by Mom for gambling. Well, everything comes from money, but it’s also the first time I’ve been cared for and loved so much even though to you I’m just one of your toys when you’re bored,” Kalea replied, recalling what had happened when she was with Arthur. She wanted to make peace, whatever would happen in the future, Kalea would leave it all to God. “And all that has happened is the risk I took for being a sugar baby.”

Arthur had never looked at Kalea with such admiration. Kalea was truly beautiful, her expressions and words were easy on the eyes even though there was a sadness in the hazel’s eyes that was hard to describe. Arthur admitted that Kalea was indeed the most beautiful woman he had ever met. “Lea-”

“I’m seriously saying you’d better go, Arthur. I only have a short time here before my college leave is over. I want to make the most of it,” Kalea cut in, looking seriously at Arthur.

“How long?”Arthur asked.

“The plan is only for a year, but I don’t know what the future holds.”

“I still don’t want to.”

“Arthur! Can’t you just let me live in peace?” Kalea could not contain her irritation because Arthur still did not listen to her.

“I can’t, Lea! Leaving you with that man while you’re still pregnant. I don’t want you to turn to him, that’s why I want to be by your side, please just give me one more chance.”

Kalea looked at Arthur in disbelief. “My feelings for Kai have nothing to do with you. It’s up to me whether I love him or not! Never mind, Arthur. I really don’t want anything to do with you anymore, can’t you understand that at all?”

“Sorry, not for now. Give me a chance, and if your heart really can’t be for me anymore, I’ll stop chasing you.”
