Chapter 3 Betrayed

• After leaving the bar, Sabastian made his way towards the jewellery shop to get his wife the necklace for her birthday.
• The necklace was expensive and it caused him almost all his savings, including the incentive he got from Mr Ethan.
• “ It doesn't matter. All that matters is that she's happy.” Sabastian assured himself as he made his way to the jewellery shop.
• “ Hello, good afternoon. I want to get this silver necklace.”
• Sabastian said, pointing towards the necklace, shining brightly on the show glass.
• “ It's $5000, sir.” The shop owner said and Sabastian nodded with a smile.
• “ I know, I saw the price tag. Here is the money.” He said and gave the money to the shop owner.
• “ Please wait a minute.” The man said and went into the shop to package the jewellery into a small box before giving it to Sabastian.
• “ Thank you, please patronise us again.” The shop owner said while Sabastian nodded with a smile before walking away..
• He kept smiling like a child who just got a candy from his mom.
• As he walked the remaining distance to the Greek Villa, he kept glancing at the necklace inside the box.
• Soon, he arrived home, and upon getting into the sitting room, he came across his mother-in-law, Lara.
• Once she set her eyes on him, she glared and hissed in irritation.
• Sabastian's presence irritates her and she is ready to do whatever it takes to make him divorce her daughter.
• “ Why did you come early? Weren't you supposed to come by 9pm as usual?” She was starting to look for ways to insult Sabastian.
• “ Oh mother, today is Nisha’s birthday, so I did the shift of a colleague, so I could get her a gift.” Sabastian smiled, causing Lara to hissed in disdain.
• “ Gift for Nisha? Do you think she will accept that worthless gift of yours? Have you forgotten your place in this house?” Lara said, as she threw a snack into her mouth.
• “ No mother—”
• “ If I hear mother from your mouth again, I will make sure you spend the night outside this house. Your voice irks me, get out of here, now!” Lara fired.
• “ Okay mot— mother-in-law.” Sabastian turned to go upstairs to his room, but got called back by Lara.
• “ Where do you think you're heading to? Go wash the dishes and wash Nisha's clothes.”
• Lara said, causing Sabastian to come downstairs and headed straight to the kitchen to do the dishes as he was told.
• “ Make sure you wash them clean, all else, no dinner for you in this house!”
• Lara said, but Sabastian didn't reply, as he concentrated on washing the dish.
• He was sad because his wife, Nisha, wasn't back from work, despite it being her birthday.
• “ She shouldn't be working on her birthday.” Sabastian muttered.
• In less than twenty minutes, he was done with the dishes and made his way upstairs to get Nisha's used clothes.
• Despite the Greek family having over 150 maids, house helps and bodyguards in the four villas inside the estate, Lara made Sabastian do most of the jobs, including cleaning, washing and running errands.
• Just as he made his way downstairs with the clothes in the laundry basket, the entrance door pushed open.
• Sabastian who had been waiting for his wife like forever, halted on his track just to know who just opened the door.
• It turned out to be Nisha, but it wasn't only her, she came with Grayson Blackwood, the son and heir of the Blackwood family, a wealthy family.
• Sabastian's mood turned sour immediately, as he stared at his wife, who avoided his gaze like a plague.
• “ Who do we have here?” Lara stood up from the sofa she was sitting on and walked towards Nisha and Grayson, smiling brightly.
• Her cheeks would probably hurt after smiling so much.
• “ Mom, this is Grayson.” Nisha introduced with a smile.
• “ Daughter, you don't have to tell me, who doesn't know Grayson Blackwood?” Lara smiled, staring at Grayson dreamily.
• “ Why is he here?” Sabastian walked towards them, still holding the laundry basket.
• His voice sounded commanding, but Lara only rolled her eyes at him.
• “ He insisted on coming with me, since today is my birthday. He is taking me out on a birthday date.”
• Nisha replied, causing Sabastian to frown deeply, his teeth gritted together in anger and jealousy.
• The thought of another man taking his wife for a birthday date, made him boil inside of him.
• “ Why will you go on a birthday date with a playboy like him? Have you forgotten that you're married?” Sabastian couldn't stop himself from speaking.
• He had always bottled up his thoughts or opinion, since it wasn't needed in the family, but he couldn't bottle this on, not when his wife is involved with the popular playboy, Grayson Blackwood.
• “ Do you have a problem with that? Can you afford to take me on a birthday date? If you can, I won't go with him.”
• Nisha rolled her eyes, while Sabastian bit the wall of his mouth angrily.
• His wife was using his weakness against him. She was using the fact that he didn't have money to take her on a birthday spree and date like she wanted.
• “ Can you leave the road?” Nisha asked, but Sabastian remained reeled to the ground.
• She hissed and brushes passing, not without bumping her shoulder with his, causing him to stagger back a little.
• “ Get a life for yourself, before I throw you out of the house.”
• Lara sneered and went upstairs with Nisha, leaving just Grayson and Sabastian in the sitting room.
• “ How does it feel?” Grayson started, his two hands inside his pocket, as he took slow steps towards Sabastian.
• “ How does it feel snatching your wife from you? I will make her mine and soon, you will have to divorce her whether you like it or not.” Grayson exuded an air of confidence and wealth.
• He was everything a woman would ask for, except for his playboy attitude.
• “ You're trying to get under her skirt, isn't it?” Sabastian asked after being silenced for a while.
• “ Get under her skirt?” Grayson chuckled and took two steps closer to Sabastian, before leaning closer and whispered into his ears.
• “ I will make her mine and become the son-in-law of the Greek family. I was attracted by her beauty. She is probably the most beautiful lady in Las Vegas.”
• Once Grayson was done speaking, he stood straight and wiped off imaginary dust from Sabastian's shoulder with a smirk on his lips.
• “ Don't worry, I will take care of your wife tonight and I will also attend to every one of her needs.” Grayson muttered and smiled at Sabastian.
• “ Let go, Grayson.” Nisha's sweet soft voice said from behind as she made her way towards Grayson.
• “ Wow, you look so beautiful. Your beauty is blinding.” Grayson said, staring lustfully at Nisha who smiled.
• “ Let's go already.” She held Grayson's arm as they made their way to the door, but Sabastian suddenly spoke up, causing them to halt on their track.
• “ Don't go...Nisha, don't go with him.”
• His voice came out as a plea.
• Nisha glanced at Sabastian but immediately turned her gaze to Grayson.
• “ Let's go, we have no time to waste.” She smiled and they both walked away.
• Sabastian remained standing despite that both of them had already left the villa.
• He was deeply hurt, as he folded the basket of laundry in his hands, almost breaking it into pieces.
