Chapter 355 - Freedom Card Part 1

Andromeda noticed something from Zachary as he got home. He wasn't speaking to her and he went directly to their bedroom.

"Zach?" She called. "I made dinner." She said. What's going on? She will talk to him about the lie that she said when she's too pissed at him. She followed him to the bedroom and he's stripping his clothes. "Hey, I made dinner." She said again. "Let's talk."

He pulled out an envelope and gave it to her. She took it and opened it. The photos were her coming in and out from the clinic where she went for her shots. It has months and Zachary knows about it. She had shots back then to avoid pregnancy since they aren't ready, and they always screw everywhere.

"So," She bit her lip and remember something painful.

"Travis had a party at the Heritage Hotel." He started. Andy remained calm. She knows that this will happen. She's too late. He took his shirt and a coat the usual he wore for parties. "It's his birthday." He finished dressing up and he took his phone and wallet. "And I am using the shitty Freedom card that you gave to me." He said coldly.

Andromeda nodded.

"If that's what you want." She put away the papers and turned back from him.

"You gave it. You insisted I use it. Now I am using it." He said. "I will be home late." He left like that and it shattered her slowly.

Andromeda wiped her tears and immediately change her clothes. Then she used one of her motorbikes and drove to the Heritage Hotel. She saw Zachary entered the hotel and a woman came up smiling and he smiled back. It sent daggers through her heart.

She waited outside and wait for him until he came out and go back to her but to her surprise, Allona entered the hotel, beautiful and confident.

"Not Allona." She murmured.

***

Zachary used one of his Jaguar and drove out of the house. He gripped on the steering wheel. He doesn't want to hurt her, but he just did.

"I'm sorry, love." He murmured to himself. Allona provoked him. He needed to play along.

He reached the Heritage Hotel and a woman came up to him with a smile. He smiled back and as a gentleman, he helped her up since her heels seemed to be killing her feet. A man came up to helped her.

"Thank you, Zach." She said and wrapped herself to the man that arrived to rescue her.

"Why are you damn wearing heels?" He murmured and then he smiled at him and nodded.

He reached the room and males had gathered and Travis's wife is also there on his lap. Travis raised his beer and he nodded as he took his beer and went to the sofa to drink alone. But just as he expected Alona came wearing something that would make men droll. But he ignored her and continue drinking. This will end soon. The f.u.c.k.i.n.g freedom card will expire, and she won't ever think of it again.

Truthfully, it pained him that she lied about not having a child anymore where the truth is, she could have babies. He understands that she wasn't ready, and she lied because she's so mad at him at that moment. He exhaled and waited for the time to pass.

"Zach." Allona came up with wine. She bent down to seduce him. "Why are you alone?" She asked.

"I ditch my wife." He said. He reached his phone to checked it and Fin texted him about the yellow code.

"Well, I can entertain you for a moment."

"Sure." He smiled at her.

***

Andy drove back home and then looked at the food that she prepared. She sighed with a heavy heart as she walked upstairs and remove all her clothes and just crawl to the cold bed. She reached his pillow and started to cry until she had fallen asleep.

Zachary arrived home at one in the morning. He called Fin and told him that he already sent the recording. Then he found her clothes on the floor and she's hugging his pillow. He sighed. She probably cried a lot. He strode to her and kissed her forehead.

"I love you." He murmured to her ear and he went to the bathroom, removed his clothes, and take a quick bath.

He brushed his teeth and glanced at the bed. He dried himself and finally joined her to bed. He kissed her forehead and it didn't wake her up. He just needed to protect her, and he hated that he needed to make her think that he's using the freedom card to screw another female. 

His phone chimes and he reached it.

Fin: I had my men following her. 

Zach: Thank you. 

He exhaled and reached her head and he moved quickly to kissed it.

"You little brat." He murmured and watch her sleep for long.

***

Andy woke up and found Zachary beside her. She wanted to hug him badly and to just make love to him and kissed him so all her lies would just disappear. But damn it. It won't happen because Zachary is mad at her. Her phone chimes and she reached it. She received photos from Allona, her flirting with Zachary, and how Zachary would move closer and talked to her closely.

She clenched her fist and the phone started vibrating. She quickly reached it and then answered it.

"Zach, I had fun last night." She said to sound a little groggy and seductive. "Why did you leave so early? I was ready for our morning s.e.x." Behind the background, she heard a vibrator. "Hear that? I am hornier in the morning." She m.o.a.ned.

Andy hung up and put back the phone. She stepped back as she looked at Zachary blankly. Why? From all those women. Why does it have to her? She went to the bathroom and brush her teeth. Then she saw his clothes on the laundry basket and checked it. Lipstick and it seemed to be the smell of cigarette, alcohol and it smelled like her.

She dropped it and she went to the walk-in closet and put her sports and shorts on. She stormed to the gym and she started punching and kicking the heavy punching bag.

She didn't stop for an hour and she went to the dispenser to drink a little water. Then she thought and remember it again. She went to the punching bag and started punching and kicking again. She lost on her though and she's just blank as her body moves to kill the punching bag.

"It's been two hours, take a break." He speaks.

She stopped and catches her breath and she turned to him. He wasn't wearing any smile.

They were both happy. So happy that it felt like a fantasy. Was it all short happiness all this time that they shared?

"Do you have an appointment?" She asked, talking about a breakfast or lunch date with the woman that he f.u.c.k.i.e.d.

"Cancelled. I am going to the other site to check on something." He sipped on his coffee and turned back from her.

Andromeda's heart kept on breaking as she watched his back. She faced the punching and bag and punched hard and fast until she couldn't do it anymore. She slumped on the floor and started crying. She dragged herself to their bedroom to the bathroom. He wasn't there. She leaned on the door and started crying.

"Why do you have to stay when I will never be enough for you?" She sniffled and hugged herself. Although it was so warm inside the bathroom, she still felt so cold.

***

Zach felt so terrible. He went to their room and heard her crying in the bathroom. He put his hand over the door. He turned back and sat down on the floor and lean on the door and listen to her cries.

"Why do you have to stay when I will never be enough for you?" She murmured to herself, but he heard it. That's no true. She was enough for him. She's more than enough for him.

Zach felt so terrible. It was hard for him to pretend. It was painful for him to see her conceal all her emotions in front of him. Why do I have to agree on this? He murmured to himself. But they had talked that he can be a free bachelor before they get married. But he didn't take it. He wanted her.

F.u.c.k this Freedom Card! He doesn't want it. He wanted her. How long is she going to torture herself like this?

He's mad that she's still torturing herself because of the incident three years ago. How long is she going to keep this up? He wanted his Andromeda to be territorial and would fight for him. He exhaled and stood. He knocked on the door.

"Andy?" He called. It takes time before she answered. "Eat your breakfast." He said and then he went to another bathroom to take a bath.

He left after he took a bath. He went directly to his hotel to the presidential room where Fin is waiting.

"How is it?" He asked.

"The doctor said that she didn't inject anything else besides the contraceptive." Fin said.
