The Substitute Bride Is Reborn and Loves Her Husband No more - Chapter 21

Chapter 21: She wants to be a single mother

Rose was looking at her and biting her lips, thinking twice if she should admit it and tell her. “Yes, it was about Rolan, and he was the dumb bastard that delayed me.”

“Well, bestie, he’s the one that delayed me this time. He was at my house today.”

“What do you mean that he was at your house?” Zara screamed, forgetting that she was not fully recovered.

For all these years, her best friend had stayed away from him, keeping her promise not to have any relationship with her child’s father. So how did their paths cross again? Her best friend had been really sad in the past but had made the right decision after her rebirth.

“Zara, I didn’t want him to come into my house. I didn’t open the door for him.” Rose shook her head, looking at Zara, hoping she would believe her. “Yes, I had really decided not to get back together with Rolan. I hadn’t planned any of this.”

Zara was confused by what Rose said. “What do you mean you didn’t open your door for him? Then how did he get into your house? Don’t tell me he came through the window,” Zara said, coughing and focusing on her.

Rose held her hand, trying to calm her down. “Yes, if I told you he came through the window, and uninvited, would you believe me? I didn’t open my window for him. That bastard came in like a burglar at my house,” Rose’s eyes were wide, recalling the scene. If she had known, she would have really hit him with a pan. If she had known it was Rolan and not some burglar…

“Damn, girl. Rolan is really crazy,” Zara commented on how bizarre it all was in her head.

“Yes, he’s really crazy. He’s very crazy. He’s even crazier in front of Tobi.”

He doesn’t know how to control himself at all, Rose suddenly said, closing her eyes and looking at Zara with hesitant glances. She didn’t want to take the topic this far. She feared that her best friend might push her, especially when she knew what had actually happened.

“Come on, why did you stop? Why?Now when are you getting to the good part? Tell me something interesting! Why did you stop? What are you hiding from me?” Zara said in a serious tone. She knew Rose very well, like an open book. Now that her best friend was refusing to say a word to her, she felt like she might have done something stupid.

“Now, Rose, tell me, what stupid thing have you done?” Zara narrowed her eyes, asking her.

“Well… um… he got into my house like a burglar, and then…” Rose stopped, her cheeks reddening.

Zara narrowed her eyes. “And then what? You should continue,” she said.

“Um… he got into my house like a burglar, and from there, he got into my bed…” Rose hadn’t said the whole part yet, but she felt embarrassed.

“You let him into your bed?! You did what?!” Zara exclaimed. After calculating everything in her mind, the realization hit her heart. “You let him into your bed? Wait, do you mean to your bed… or in the other sense?” Zara questioned, wanting to be sure if she was hearing things the wrong way or hearing them right.

Rose blinked, stammering as she spoke. “I think it was in both senses. I let him into my bed, and I also let him in other ways.” Rose buried her head in the bed, not wanting to talk anymore. She believed Zara was looking at her like she was an idiot right now. Of course, she was an idiot. She had gotten involved with her ex once more—an ex who had been cheating on her with her sister in her past life.

“How far did it go between you two?” Zara asked, wanting to be sure if her friend had really been taken advantage of.

“We didn’t go that far,” Rose bit her lip and answered.

“You didn’t go that far? What do you mean? Come on, tell me in detail,” Zara insisted, her mind unstable. She was sure that what her friend meant by “not going that far” was something else. There might have been more. Rolan had taken advantage of Rose, and Rose had been so stupid to give him the chance.

“Well, we didn’t go that far,” Rose hesitated. “He… he touched my boobs. He fingered me until—”

“Until what?” Zara screamed, making Rose flinch.

“It was until Tobi woke up. That’s when we stopped what we were doing,” Rose finished with shame.

“Oh, babe, so you guys were going to go further if your little son hadn’t woken up, huh? The both of you? You know what I have to say to you? You guys are very shameless. You had a kid sleeping in the room, and you did that. Well, friend, you guys are horny as hell!” Zara said, utterly confused and speechless by the details Rose had just shared with her.

“I didn’t want to do it. It was Rolan. It was him. He was acting all vulnerable and kind with me, and I couldn’t resist him.” Rose closed her eyes quickly.

Zara looked at her and sneered. “You are stupid.”

“I know I am stupid,” Rose admitted, not denying it. “Yes, I’m very stupid.”

“Yes, girl, I know you are very stupid right now,” Zara laughed, rolling her eyes.

“So, girl, what does this make of the both of you? You said you wanted nothing to do with him,” Zara looked at Rose and brought up all the topics they had discussed. “This was not meant to make stupid decisions wisely. Do you want to get back with him?” Zara asked again, looking at Rose.

“No, I don’t want to get back with him,” Rose snapped. Thinking about everything, it was becoming clear. She was feeling everything clearly right now. She wasn’t going to get back together with Rolan. She was going to plan her life properly and move on.
