BXBX NOVEL Chapter 547 Jane As A Big Sister
[ At Dave\'s Apartment… ]
(7:00 pm)
Dave woke up at the feel of someone\'s hand caressing his cheeks. He groaned and slowly opened his eyes.
He was shocked to see Karina\'s face closer to him. His first reaction was to sit up and move away.
"What are you doing here?" Dave\'s mind became when he realized that they were both lying naked in his bed.
Karina feigned innocence and said, "Have you forgotten already? I drove you home because you said you felt dizzy. Then…" Karina acted as if she was the victim. She tugged the hem of the comforter, covering herself.
"Then what?" Dave asked her, anxiously. He couldn\'t remember clearly. But he had this vague memory, seeing himself being supported by Karina as he entered the house.
They stumbled inside the house and fell to the ground. She landed on his body and their faces were just a few centimeters away. Then he felt the urge to kiss her. But his head ached so much that he felt like going to faint. Everything went blank after that.
"After guiding you into your bedroom, you suddenly grabbed me and kissed me hard… and I couldn\'t push you." Karina looked anxious as if Dave forced himself into her.
Dave, on the other hand, couldn\'t believe that he did this. "No, this can\'t be. I would never do that to you." Dave was in denial. He couldn\'t accept this. The first thing that came into his mind was Abigail. How would he explain this to her?
He was already planning to propose to her and get married.
"You… you were so rough, Dave. You seemed like a different person." Karina covered her face and started crying. "What are we going to do now? You are my first. You should take responsibility, Dave." Karina demanded while sobbing.
Dave didn\'t know what to say. He didn\'t know how they ended up in this situation.
"If you don\'t want to believe me, then you have to see this," Karina pushed the comforter aside, letting him see the bloodstain on his bedsheet. It was the sign of her virginity he took from her.
Dave just stared at the bloodstain absentmindedly. He knew he fucked up. Dave gritted his teeth and tugged his hair tightly, cursing himself. \'Damn it! What have I done?\'
Dave got off the bed and grabbed his clothes. He put them on before storming out of the house. He needed to clear his mind. He felt like he just committed the greatest crime of his life.
Upon stepping out of the house, Dave began to scream his frustration, punching and kicking everything. How would he face Abigail now? How?
Though unintentional, he still ended up betraying her. How could he sleep with another woman? And she was his colleague and a friend!
Now, Dave was torn between taking the responsibility or keeping this a secret from Abigail. But his conscience wouldn\'t allow him to lie or hide something from Abigail. He had no idea that Abigail dropped by his apartment and saw something she was not supposed to see.
Both Dave and Abigail were clueless that they fell into Helena\'s evil scheme. It was a great trap Dave couldn\'t escape. In his mind, he wronged both ladies. Of course, he didn\'t want to give up Abigail. But then again, he felt like he didn\'t have a right to face her after what happened.
"Fuck you, Dave! She chose you! Why did you mess things up!" Dave cursed himself over and over again.
"Dave!" Karina called his attention. She already put her clothes on.
Dave didn\'t look at her. He felt so guilty for what happened.
"Don\'t blame yourself. I… I like you, Dave… so I didn\'t regret giving you my all… myself," Karina said, moving closer to him. She held his arm tightly.
Dave shook his head. He couldn\'t accept this.
"Marry me, Dave. Please… take responsibility. What if I get pregnant?" Karina was desperate. Maybe a shotgun marriage wouldn\'t be bad.
Karina\'s parents were powerful. Her father was a high-ranking official of the Police force. He was one of Dave\'s superiors before. If Dave would refuse her, then she would resort to the second option– threatening Dave with their sex video. Everyone would think that it was Dave on the video.
Dave slammed his eyes shut. His mind was still in shambles. "Karina… please… not now." He couldn\'t decide at this moment.
"Okay. I\'ll give you three days. Please let me know your decision." After saying that, Karina said goodbye to Dave, leaving him in that chaotic state.
Dave sat on the ground like a loser. He didn\'t know how he would fix this.
\'What should I do? Should I tell Abi or not?\' Dave\'s heart was now filled with anxiety and uncertainty.
*****
[ At Mr. Hiroshi\'s Villa… ]
Mr. Hiroshi had been worrying about Abigail. He hadn\'t come home yet. He kept pacing back and forth. He couldn\'t contact her.
"Pa, just relax. If Abi is with Dave, then you don\'t have to worry. He is a reliable person," Jane said, reassuring her father.
"Sigh. I\'m just worried. What if the people who attacked me will also target my daughters? I must keep you both safe all the time." Mr. Hiroshi expressed his concern.
Jane just smiled faintly. It felt so good to have a father who was looking after his daughters. She was glad and thankful to have a father like him.
Jane anchored her hands around his arm, guiding him to the sofa. She made him sit first. "Pa, don\'t worry. I\'m your eldest daughter. You can rely on me. I will protect my little sis and you."
Mr. Hiroshi couldn\'t help but smile upon hearing those sweet words from his eldest daughter.
"Oh, my sweet and lovely daughter…" Mr. Hiroshi embraced her.
Jane could only laugh. "To make you at ease, I will call Dave. I will ask him to send my sister home now."
"Okay. While waiting for them, I\'ll prepare dinner for us." Mr. Hiroshi stood up and headed to the kitchen. He wanted to serve and spoil his two daughters and make it up for the time he wasn\'t there for them.
Jane immediately called Dave. She dialed his number. It took her five seconds before Dave accepted the call.
"Hello…" Dave\'s voice was hoarse. He seemed like he was low-spirited as he talked.
"Dave, Are you with my sister? Can you send her home? Our father has been worrying about her. We couldn\'t contact her phone." Jane asked Dave directly.
There was a moment of silence from the other line. Jane frowned as if she could sense that something was wrong with Dave.
"Abi… she\'s not with me…" Dave absentmindedly replied.
"But she left to see you." Jane was confused.
"We haven\'t seen each other today. I guess… she is with Helena."
"WHAT?! Helena?!" Jane blurted out exasperatedly. Helena was one of her suspects. She knew that this woman couldn\'t be trusted. She was worried about Abigail\'s safety.
Jane grabbed her car keys. She needed to find her sister. She couldn\'t let her interact with Helena!
Jane was rushing out when she bumped into Abigail. She finally came home.
"Abi! Where have you been? You were not answering your phone. Why did you meet Helena?" Jane held her shoulders as she bombarded her with so many questions.
Abigail gazed at her sister with a sullen look in her eyes. She thought she could stay strong and hide her pain in front of her sister. However, the moment she saw the concerned look in Jane\'s eyes, Abigail had the urge to confide her feelings with her.
She pounced on her sister, hugging her tightly as she buried her face on her neck. Then she started to cry again.
Jane froze in her spot when her sister suddenly burst out crying. \'Eh? What happened to her? Did Helena bully her?\'
"Hey, Sis… What\'s wrong?" Jane asked her worriedly. She rubbed her back.
Abigail was both sobbing and sniffing. "Sis… Dave… he… He c-cheated on me." It was hard for her to say the word "Cheated".
"Huh?" Jane became more confused. Why would Dave do that?
"Wait. Calm down first. Let\'s go to my room and talk." Jane broke the hug and pulled Abigail toward her room.
Upon reaching her room, she led her to the couch and sat down. "Tell me everything that happened." Jane didn\'t judge Dave right away. She needed to hear the story first. Who knows Helena might have said something to cause misunderstanding between the two.
\'She just met Helena. What kind of lie did she feed my sister?\' Jane was always suspicious of Helena. She wouldn\'t doubt Dave but she would definitely doubt Helena.
Abigail told Jane everything that happened between Dave and her. She and Helena caught him in the act, having sex with his colleague inside his apartment.
When Jane heard her story, she stood up and grabbed Abigail\'s hand. There was a dark look on her face. "Let\'s go to Dave, now! Let\'s confront him!"
Jane would never let anyone hurt her younger sister again. Abigail had gone through a lot. And she would make sure to pay whoever person that would make Abigail cry.
"Sis… I don\'t think I can face him right now." Abigail bit her lower lip, holding her tears.
Jane heaved a deep sigh. She caressed her sister\'s cheek and said, "Alright, sis. Just stay with our father. I will be the one to confront, Dave. Leave this to me. Okay?"
Abigail could only nod her head. She suddenly felt comforted by her sister\'s presence.
