Chapter 309: Girl''s Night Out
She just wanted to let her dad''s words pass but it irked her so much that she could not control it. After
she saved him, he was still Trishia''s supporter, protector, and the greatest father anyone wanted to
have but not her.
She felt the man was no longer her father. He was only the father of Trishia now and she was like
abandoned miserably.
She felt bullied by her own father. Her heart could not take it anymore. It was like bleeding
tremendously and was sliced deeply by the sharpest de.
Arabe didn''t want to shed tears but her stubborn tears skipped from the corners of her eyes. For a
while, she let it fall to the ground. With her head low, she saw the ground quickly covered by her tears.
She clenched her fists trying to control her surging animosity.
"Huh! Thanks for that. You made me realize that I don''t matter to you at all and you made me realize
that I had enough sacrifices for you." She chuckled bitterly like she felt stupid for doing it and the return
was not in her favor.
Then she turned around to face her dad. "Bill Sky is mine." She announced possessively. Her
expression was stern and she had no room for negotiation. After her words, she looked at her father for
onest time. Her eyes were full of pain despising him. When all she could see was hope for his
request, she smirked mockingly before she hopelessly went away.
"Arabe, my dear, where are you?" The exhausted Arabe tried to open her eyes slowly. The
darkness of her room greeted her eyes. Shezily grasped her phone on her side of the bed when
someone called. She answered without even looking at the caller''s name. After she got back to her
apartment, she went directly to her room and tossed herself on her bed. With a very heavy heart,
painful bruises all over her body, and tiredness made her want to nap, forget everything, and
recharged. Somehow, she made it. She was just awakened by the call if not, she would definitely wake
up in the morning straight.
With her eyes closed, she answered the phone and was surprised by the caller. Rosy Byer was in the
other line.
"Rosy?" She asked after hearing the very familiar voice.
"Where are you?" Rosy asked directly.
"Hmmm... I''m just in my house." She answeredzily.
"House?" Rosy asked doubtfully. "Do you have a problem with money?" She added.
"What? Why are you asking that?" Her eyes opened quickly with Rosy''s question. She had no clue why
Rosy was asking about money. Admittedly, she felt great relief because of her friend''s call.
"I just thought that you don''t have money to pay your electricity bill and you had been cut off of
electricity supply," Rosy mumbled like she wasining about something.
"No way!" She quickly jumped out of her bed and ticked all her light switches. Then she went out and
opened her door.
"Mommy! Mommy!" Ivan''s cheerful voice weed her.
Seeing the little boy, Arabe smiled sweetly. She quickly approached him with a hug. Then she also
hugged Rosy who had a wide smile on her face. Seeing and hugging her friends, she felt a little relief.
Her pained heart had been covered with a little warmth within.
"Oh! Why you guys haven''t informed me of youring? I should have prepared something for you
guys." Sheined as she was troubled with her empty house. She had nothing to offer her
visitors.
"Nahhh!" Rosy quickly replied raising her right palm in the air. "Don''t bother my friend because we are
going to have dinner outside. So get dressed now and dress beautifully because tonight is a special
night for us." Rosy added folding her arms up to her chest with a teasing smile on her face.
Arabe nodded with a sweet smile on her face. Good thing, she was quick to cover her bruises with a
concealer so Rosy would not ask so many questions and she didn''t want her also to be worried for her.
With her good make-up skill, Rosy didn''t notice even a single bruise on her forehead and her busted
lip.
"Okay... We are going to talk a lot!" She poured Ivan a ss of water then she dragged her exhausted
body to dress up as she could not afford to decline Rosy''s dinner invitation. It would be rude for her to
do it since Rosy just visited the country after her mom''s funeral. She also wanted to know about Rosy
coping with the death of her mom. As her friend, she was worried about Rosy and also guilty for not
being with her during that most difficult time in her life.
The driver drove them to an expensive high-ss fine dining restaurant as per Rosy''s demand. Ivan
was tugging Arabe''s arm when they entered the restaurant. It was a huge restaurant and most of the
crowd were in their formal business attire and the girls were in formal cocktail dresses.
"Rosy, what''s the asion? This is a very expensive restaurant." Arabeined. Tonight, she
was wearing a ck silky dress embracing her curves. She just wanted to wear a simple shirt and
jeans but Rosy went to her room and rampage her closet then insisted she wears a sexy ck dress
with a halter cut just like her. Rosy was wearing a maroon-fitted dress with a deep v-neck cut. They
were both wearing high heels unting their long wless white legs. If it was not for Ivan, they could
call the night, a girl''s night out. Rosy and Arabe were both pretty and sexy, men from different tables
were eyeing them.
Rosy had reserved a table in the restaurant so someone just assisted them to their seats.
The food they ordered was very delicious greatly suited to the restaurant''s elegance and high-ss
standard.
Now, she understands why their customers didn''t mind spending their money on food just to satisfy
their appetite.
"Solved!" Rosy put her utensils after she finished.
"Can I eat some more cakes?" Ivan was still craving more desserts. His expression was cute as he
pleaded with Rosy.
"Sure, Mr. Genius!" Rosy answered pinching slightly Ivan''s cheek.
Arabe smiled seeing Rosy and Ivan had gotten along well.
"Yes!" Ivan eximed.
"So how''s my friend?" Arabe started fishing with Rosy''s feelings.
Rosy''s smile faded slowly but she seemed to try her best not to be sad again. She seemed to want to
move on from the deep abyss of tears and sorrows and Arabe had understood it clearly.
"Well... I''m trying to be happy!" Rosy responded with a smile but her eyes could never lie.
"It''s good to hear that!" Arabe answered also trying to have a cheerful tone. "Just always remember,
you have another angel watching you up there, and never forget that we are here, caring, loving and
we have your back always, Rosy." Arabe had meant it sincerely. Rosy was intimidating at first look
because she was straightforward and had a strong image of a businesswoman but when she got to
know her more, their hearts just met peacefully and respectfully without even concealing each other.
Their friendship is natural and has never been forced even if they started unpleasantly.
"Oh my gosh! You are going to make me cry." Rosy was fanning her eyes with her fingers. "I know...
and because of you guys, I can and will carry on." Rosy blurted out sincerely with teary eyes.
"Okay... No crying! Let''s just drink and chill tonight." Rosy raised her ss of champagne at her. Then
Arabe made a toast.
They spent the night talking and Ivan decided to go home ahead with the driver. The two were left
continuously drinking talking andughing like they didn''t see each other for years.
"How are you and Eric?" Suddenly, this question made Arabe jolted. With her messy life, she forgot
about Eric. When she decided to leave Eric and that he should not be involved with her problems,
Arabe stopped herself from contacting him. For her, it was way better than dragging Eric to her
problems. Eric had already done so much for her and she could not afford to put him in danger.
"Well... I..." Arabe didn''t know what to say but since Rosy had asked, she wanted to answer her
honestly. " I wanted a divorce, Rosy." She finally uttered what she wanted to say. After she confessed
to Rosy, she felt a little lighter.
Hearing Arabe, Rosy''s jaw dropped. Not because of excitement but because of shock. She had
known the fuss of their marriage before but not to the extent of having a divorce. "Are you sure? But..."
At this moment, Rosy was the one who was out of words. She knew Eric loves Arabe so much. It is
merely impossible that Eric would agree to divorce Arabe. "Arabe, you know Eric loves you so
much." Rosy reminded her. Her eyes were convincing Arabe to give Eric another chance. "Don''t you
love him?" Out of Rosy''s curiosity and also trying to solve their marriage problem, she asked. Rosy''s

eyes were full of hope for the couple.
"Of course, I love Eric. He was like my real brother but that love is purely a family love. You know what I
mean..." Arabe exined sincerely.
Rosy''s expression was troubled. She seemed not to like the thoughts of the couple separating forever.
Even though Rosy knew the real reason for their marriage, she could not set aside the real feeling of
her best friend, Eric. Rosy gave up her love and affection for Eric so he could be happy with Arabe.
Of all people, Rosy knew Eric''s true love for Arabe.
She witnessed it all and she could not deny the fact that Eric''s heart belongs only to Arabe.
"I understand you. Love can never be forced." With sympathy in her tone, Rosy answered. "... But are
you in love with someone else?" She added which made Arabe stunned.
Rosy was really frank and Arabe was still trying to get used to it.
"Hmmm..." She muttered softly. When she was about to answer Rosy, her eyesnded on the other
table in the corner. Her lips that were already opened slightly immediately closed again. Bill Sky was at
the other table with a beautiful girl. The girl was chatting with him with a wide smile on her face. The
cold handsome man was wearing a gray formal suit and holding his wine ss. The two looked sweet
and intimate as the girl''s eyes were sexy like she was seducing the man in front of her. She was
wearing a golden crop top bralette paired with a very short golden fitted skirt. Her long blonde hair was
fixed cleanly in a ponytail style. She was graceful and elegant. Arabe could feel a little bitterness with
the scene of Bill Sky and the woman. She felt jealousy and anger but she couldn''t admit it to herself.
"Are you, okay?" Rosy''s voice snapped Arabe back to her senses then she looked in the direction
where Arabe''s eyes seemed to see a ghost.
They were both quiet for a while.
"Arabe, I swear, I didn''t know he''s here!" Rosy quickly defended herself remembering her bad
decision before. She didn''t want Arabe to misunderstand her.
"Rosy, stop exining. I know." Arabe quickly held Rosy''s hand. She knew Rosy was sincere in
apologizing to her when she set her up with Bill Sky in a restaurant before.
"Do you want to get out from here now?" With a worried tone, Rosy quickly asked.
Arabe averted her stare back to Rosy. She smiled at her calmly. "Don''t worry. We don''t need to get
out of here. Cheers?" Arabe said to appease Rosy''s reaction as she raised her ss to make
another toast.
Seeing Bill Sky unexpectedly made her want to confront him. When his dad confessed about faking his
death and the whole setup on that cliff years ago, she felt guilty for ming Bill Sky. There''s something
in her that she felt relieved from something but still, she couldn''t put her guards down. She still didn''t
trust the cold domineering man.
After a while, Rosy''s phone rang. She raised it wanting to excuse herself. Arabe nodded as she also
signaled her hand that she was going to the restroom.
They both separated for a while. Arabe tried to sober herself as she felt a bit tipsy already. She
wanted to fix herself before she asked Rosy to drive her home.
When she was about to go out, the door was pushed open. Her eyes quickly traveled to the person
who suddenly got inside thedy''s room.
She was shocked.
Bill Sky strode inside and locked the door.
With his presence inside the room, she could feel her heartbeat thumping very fast like it could explode
if she could not control it.
"Wha...what are you doing here?" She asked very uneasily with his presence. He was actually putting
her in great embarrassment if someone would knock on the door.
Bill didn''t answer. His sharp strict eyes looked at her from head to toe. He seemed to scrutinize her
whole being and she felt shy about it as her cheeks blushed.
Then he strode closer to her. She quickly took some steps back until her back hit the wall. Bill pressed
her body with his.
"How dare you flirt with me when you have another girl waiting for you outside?" Arabe felt very
annoyed by his domineering action. She pushed him but escaping from him was to no avail. His
exquisite scent immediately wafted her nose and it made her feel so good inside.
"Jealous?" Bill uttered with his sharp eyes pierced into hers.
"No!" She quickly answered with irritation. "You are hopeless! You asked me to be with you but you
can''t stop seeing other women. Bill Sky, you are... you are..." Arabe was trying to think of the perfect
word to describe him but she could not find it. Bill''s face moved closer to her that making her more
nervous.
His luscious lips were approaching her but suddenly someone knocked on the door.
"Bill, are you there?" A melodious voice of a girl sounded. It was Bill''s, another woman.
