My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 213

Chapter 213: Unwanted Visitor
“I don’t understand a single word you’re saying,” Allison replied. “When have we ever been best friends? Do you suddenly have amnesia?” She questioned, her tone sharp. “I asked you for help, and what did you suggest to me? You asked me to sleep with Derek if I want my mother’s hospital bills paid. And then you go behind my back to record everything?!”

Olivia flushed red in embarrassment, her eyes darting around, suddenly struggling to make eye contact with Allison.

“But it’s alright, the past is the past,” Allison said as she stood up from the chair, a confident smile spreading across her face. “I’ll be leaving now. Since you have nothing against me…” she trailed off, her gaze locking onto Derek.

“I hope we don’t cross paths again. Because if we do, I’ll just upload this video.” She held up her phone briefly before continuing, “And in case you think of snatching my phone to delete it, I’ve already sent it out to other people—they’re ready to upload it at any time.”

Her heart danced in joy seeing their paled expressions.

With the smile still on her lips, Allison walked out of the room freely with none of them bold enough to stop her as they glared at her back.

Reaching Kace’s car, she got inside and leaned in the back seat as silence wrapped around them, not a single person saying a word.

“Thank you,” Allison said to cut through the silence.

Kace gave her a warm smile in response. “Will you be uploading the video soon?” He asked.

She shook her head vertically. “I will, but I will just let them think for now that I won’t. They will get a taste of their medicines,” she replied.

Kace’s smirk stretched further on his lips.

“How do you feel?”

Silence enveloped them one more time as Allison took her time to respond.

“I feel neutral,” she responded, jerking her upper body off the seat so that she could sit properly. “Kace, if I may ask, are you doing this for me because I’m a friend?” She blurted out.

Her eyes widened, embarrassed with how confident she blurted that out. A rosy hue painted her cheeks for a reason she was unsure of.

“Since the first day I spoke to you, I’ve always wanted us to be something more than a friend,” he responded. He watched as her eyes widened, her iris nearly popping out of their holes which he found cute.

Reaching his hands behind her, he cupped the back of her head, gently pulling her closer. Their faces hovered inches apart, and Allison let out a quiet yelp, caught off guard by the sudden intimacy of the moment. Her breath hitched, her wide eyes locking with his, uncertain of what would happen next.

Kace stared at her lips, not sure what had gotten into him to make such a huge move. Even so, he was glad he’d come clean with his feelings.

“You’ve always piqued my curiosity since the first time I met you, Allison. I’ve always wondered what you had in you that made my heart flutter whenever you’re around,” he continued.

Allison could hear her heartbeat drumming in her ears, and she believed Kace could hear it too. Either way, she still didn’t move, staring back at him with a shocked expression.

“Kace, I-i this I—” she stuttered, lowering her head, her face looking as if she was painted with a red color when Kace suddenly moved his hand away from the back of her head, placing it on her chin, lifting it so he could look into her eyes. Her heart skipped several beats and she wondered if it was safe.

Without further words being exchanged, Kace leaned in slowly and Allison instinctively closed her eyes.

However, just when their lips were about to touch, Allison sneezed out of the blue, catching them both off guard. Due to her sneezing, her head collided with Kace’s making them both yelp in pain.

“What’s with your head? Why is it as hard as a rock?” He questioned, rubbing his forehead to prevent any bump from forming up there.

“Excuse you, it’s a head, not some object—” Allison’s words were cut off when she felt Kace rub her head ever so gently, to prevent any huge bump from forming as well.

Time seemed to have stopped as butterflies fluttered in her belly.

“You’re so clumsy, even when you’re sneezing too?” He questioned. Although his words were supposed to come out as nagging, it felt like a warm breeze that caressed Allison’s skin, turning it into the same color as her face.

“That’s enough!” She pushed his hand away from her forehead. “I think I need to move back into my house now,” she suddenly announced, glancing at Kace, hoping she could forget what happened a second ago, although she greatly believed that mission was impossible.

“Why?”

She gulped down her saliva, parting her lips, “Since I have the video of those two, I doubt Derek would want to try anything funny with me anymore. So I want to move back with my family,” she explained.

Looking back at Kace, she felt a thorn prick her heart when she saw his saddened expression.

“Can’t you stay a little bit longer?” He requested, his tone soft and full of affection she wasn’t sure she was willing to accept just yet.

“I have to leave. I’ve already informed my mother I would be coming home today,” she responded.

“Alright.”

Sticking her hand into her pocket, she gave him the device he’d given to her earlier.

“Thank you once again,” she said, placing the device into his hands.

The air in the car was suddenly chilly, and Allison could only wonder if Kace had increased the air conditioning in the car. However, she hadn’t seen him press any button.

Kace nodded, but didn’t speak a word. He ignited the engines of the car and zoomed off towards Allison’s home.

They exchanged a few words before she carried her bag and stepped down from the car.

When Kace zoomed out of the entrance of her house, she sighed, new emotions suddenly weighing down on her.

Allison walked towards her house, ready to announce she had arrived when her eyes caught someone familiar, someone who ran away and left her to be the head of her family at the age of twenty, someone she didn’t want to come back ever again.

“What are you doing here, father?”
