Chapter 99: Secret Affair


    The picture gave Arabe cold sweat all of the sudden. Now, she confirmed that this was Sharon’s


    belongings. When she was kidnapped with Sharon and Officer Jackson before, they were not just


    scheming her, but they really knew something about her father’s case.


    In the picture was the same woman who she believed was his dad’s mistress. She was the owner of


    the amethyst earring that had a blood stain of her father. As she remembered it clearly, she saw her in


    the restroom and ran away in panic. The one in the picture with her dad and the one who wrote a love


    message with the abbreviation of A.D.


    What made Arabe shocked the most was that the woman was none other than the wife of the


    powerful Senator Meyer and the mother of Trishia.


    A.D was not just an ordinary woman.


    Arabe heaved in frustration. Caught inplex thoughts, she felt her head was about to crack.


    How could her father have an affair with Trishia’s mother?


    Could it be, Senator Meyer had found it out and arranged the killing of her father?


    Or Senator Meyer, himself attempted to kill her father?


    She frowned as she stared at the white ceiling inplexity.


    If her father had an affair with the Senator’s wife, then who was at fault?


    His father was at fault too.


    Closing her eyes, her heart was clenched as she saw her mom’s face painfully crying when she


    confessed about her father’s affair with another woman.


    With her new information, she searched on the inte about Senator Meyer’s family, especially his


    wife.


    Bingo!


    There, she confirmed that A.D was her.


    A.D stands for Alice Davis, her maiden name.


    Caught in her realization, his father and she must have met when she was not yet married to Senator


    Meyer as she was using her maiden name on the letter.


    Could it be that her father and Alice had a rtionship before they got married?


    Arabe’s head had so much that it couldn''t absorb everything. She tried topose herself and rx


    a bit. She was tempted to call her mom but the crying face of her mom shed across her and she


    shrugged to get rid of the thought.


    As she tried to analyze everything, she came to a conclusion. She would find a way to talk to Alice.


    Judging from her demeanor, she was elegant but a simple woman. She was so different from her


    daughter’s opulent style. Alicia might know something that night.


    There’s only one problem, how could she talk to her?


    She couldn’t ask Trishia about this matter or else, things might get moreplicated.


    If Trishia knew of Arabe’s dad’s affair with her mom, she would probably do something terrible to


    Arabe and her family.


    As of now, Arabe decided to drop the case to give everyone a peaceful life.


    But when there’s smoke there is fire.


    One day, Farrah invited Arabe to start shopping for her baby’s clothes and things. Arabe was


    hesitant at first because it was too early for that and she felt it was unnecessary to do it early. But,


    thinking of theing Sky Corporation’s golden anniversary, she felt she had to m up.


    This would be herst day seeing Bill. She wanted to be the most beautiful girl in the party for thest


    time, after all it would just be a part of her good memory. Thinking of it, she could feel a pinched in her


    heart, but on the contrary, it was the best thing for her to do. It was a bitter pill for her to swallow, but


    she had to ept that Bill would never love her and she would never be good enough for him.


    He never contacted her after he left that night. Probably, he spent his time with Mia while recuperating


    and the rest of his women.


    Shaking her head, she clung into Farrah’s arm while they were entering a famous bag store inside the


    mall. The store carried an internationally famous brand and the brand was too expensive that only the


    rich could afford.


    “Are you sure you''re gonna buy something here?” Arabe asked as her eyes grew bigger with the


    amount written on the price tag.


    “Oh,e on! As if I buy here every day.” Farrah replied to justify her means to shop.


    “Okay, you win! What are best friends for?” Rolling her eyes, Arabe agreed with her best friend.


    From the second floor of the store, two women came down with shopping bags in their hand. They


    seemed to buy so many items inside the store as their hands were full.


    “Well, well, well!” A woman’s frisky tone sounded.


    Arabe and Farrah turned around to check out the owner of the voice only to see Trishia with a very


    seductive aura. She was wearing big sunsses and a red mini dress exposing her cleavage and long


    legs. Her presence didn’t shock Arabe, but the woman beside her did.


    Alice Davis.


    “Mom, are we in the wrong ce? When did this store be a charity? Why are beggars here?”


    Trishia sounded loud and provocative. She obviously wanted to pick a fight with Arabe.


    Nevertheless, she was a shameless one because of her famous status and rich political back-up.


    “Trishia, that’s enough. Let’s go.” Alice stopped her daughter. Her uneasiness showed in front of


    Arabe that she wanted to flee immediately.


    Trishia sneered at them stubbornly before she left Arabe and Farrah in peace.


    “Spoiled brat!” Farrah muttered as she rolled her eyes.


    “Farrah, help me, I need to talk to Trishia’s mom.” Arabe whispered.


    “What? Why?” Farrah was confused.


    “It’s important.” Arabe quickly strode out of the store and Farrah followed behind with a very puzzled


    expression.


    The mall was one of the high-end malls in Capital Z owned by Sky Corporation. Most celebrities and


    people with money came here to shop. Aside that it’splete with international brands, it was


    uncrowded.


    Farrah and Arabe tailed Trishia and her mom.


    They went to different stores until Alice exited alone from a couture shop. Arabe had found her


    chance to confront Alice.


    “Farrah, wait for me here.” Arabe suddenly mumbled.


    “Wait. What are you going to do?” Farrah was puzzled and worried.


    “I will exin to youter.” Arabe replied and quickly ran to Alice’s direction.


    Alice went to the nearby restroom. Arabe felt satisfied that finally she would have a word with Alice.


    She had been longing to ask her about her father’s affair with her. This was good timing as Trishia was


    out of their sight.


    Alice was talking to someone on the phone. She didn’t notice Arabe had followed her. When she


    entered the restroom, she went directly to the cubicle, but when she went out, Arabe was already in


    front of her.


    Alice was shocked. She knew Arabe had wanted something from her. Judging from Arabe’s


    expression, she was dying to know something.


    “Mrs. Meyer, I am sorry to bother you, but I am not here to pick a fight or judge you.” Arabe was


    blocking her way. She seemed to check the whole restroom and no one was there except the two of


    them.

    “Stop beating around the bush. What do you want?” Alice replied, though she already knew why


    Arabe came to see her.


    “I know your secret affair with my father, George Foster.” Arabe felt she had to drop the bomb as her


    time was limited.


    Alice was stunned a bit. She looked at Arabe trying to find her emotion with what she said. Arabe


    was not angry, but more eager to know something.


    “What do you want to know?” Alice said seriously, but uneasiness could be detected in her tone.


    “I saw your picture in my dad’s office. You are with him wearing those amethyst earrings. I have the pair


    of your earring with the stain of blood of my father. Do you know who wanted to kill my father?” Arabe


    had to get the answer directly or she would not get it anymore.


    “I…” Staggering, Alice had difficulty speaking.


    “Please, Mrs. Meyer. Tell me the truth. My dad was still in aa until now. Please help my father.”


    Arabe was already crying as she remembered her father’s tragic situation.


    “I am already helping your father.” Alice''s tears came out as well. She was wiping her tears elegantly


    with her scarp.


    “What do you mean?” Arabe was shocked as she muttered with tears.


    “I know your father first before your mom. He’s my first love. We were in love with each other from high


    school until my parents forced me to get married to Mayor Meyer that time. I swore I stopped seeing


    your father after I got married. Then I heard that he got married too with your mom. I am happy with


    that, but your dad secretly made some arrangements to see me. Since then, we have been secretly


    seeing each other.” Alicia exined in a firm voice as if she was trying topose herself not to break


    her elegance.


    “Is it Senator Meyer, tried to kill my father?” Arabe asked nervously.


    Alice was taken aback. Her expression was like weighing things if she should proceed to her


    confession or not.


    “Please, Mrs. Meyer answer my question.” Arabe tears were flowing as she begged at Alice.


    “I don’t want to put my husband in trouble, but trust me, I am already helping your dad. As long as I am


    with my husband your dad is safe. Please do not do things out of impulsiveness and stay yourself away


    from trouble most specially stay away from Trishia. I have to go now.” Alice wiped her tears and


    Arabe was left in a daze. She was trying to absorb everything. It seemed that Alice was her father’s


    first love. He never mentioned it to them. Now, things were getting moreplicated because of their


    secret affair. Now, she got all the answers that she wanted. It seemed Alicia was forced to stay with


    Senator Meyer for her father’s sake. Arabe couldn’t tell it to her mom as she knew Jaime would go


    frantic. It was clear that Alicia was protecting them and giving her a warning not to mess up with Trishia


    and Senator Meyer.


    Alicia probably knew that her daughter was more like her father, having a murderous mind.


    Realizing that she was gone for a long time, she opened the faucet and washed her face with warm


    water. She didn’t intend to show up to Farrah with such a haggard look caused by her crying and


    absorbing all the shocking revtions.


    What a day!


    A heavy day.


    When she finished washing, she reached the tissue, but there’s none.


    “Do you need this?” A woman menacingly sounded.


    Arabe with a wet face looked around only to see Trishia had entered the room. With the pack of


    tissue in her hand, she harshly threw everything to Arabe. Arabe didn’t dodge in time, so some


    sheets of tissuended on her wet face.


    Trishia smiled with satisfaction when she saw Arabe’s messy appearance while Arabe was


    shocked and annoyed by Trishia’s sudden attack.


    “I don’t want a cat fight. Please satisfy yourself. I am out.” Arabe took the tissues away and put them


    in the trash bin, then she strode to the exit.


    “Not so fast!” Trishia screamed while brutally pulling Arabe’s hair.


    Arabe was rattled. She knew Trishia was so mean, but she thought that she would behave properly


    in public as she was a famous actress.


    Arabe was wrong. Trishia was vicious as ever.


    “What are you doing? You are hurting me. I can sue you for this!” Arabe was shouting in anger. She


    didn’t want to fight with her, but Trishia was very savage to the bone.


    “Sue me? Hahaha. Are you crazy? Don’t you know who I am and what I am capable of doing?” Trishia


    was very proud of herself.


    “Don’t be too full of yourself.” Arabe shouted as she struggled to escape from Trishia’s grip.


    When she had the chance to escape, she pushed Trishia hard and in a quick second, Trishia knocked


    on the concrete wall. Trishia was stunned. She didn’t anticipate Arabe could fight back toughly.


    When Arabe saw Trishia was unmoved on the wall, she turned around to leave.


    “Stop!” Trishia shouted angrily.


    Arabe stopped, but didn’t turn around.


    “I heard you talking to my mom.”


    “Let me borrow your husband for one night and I will spare your dad’s life.” Trishia then denoted a


    ferocious proposal.
