Downfall 4

Lucas' POV

"Babe"

"Hmm?"

"Let me explain. Please, it's not what you think it is." She begged.

I just caught her cheating on me.

Someone sent me pictures of her kissing another man in a f*cking restaurant. I went there to see it for myself and yeah, I caught her red handed.

"H-he just suddenly grabbed and kissed me a-and I was so shocked that I couldn't even move." She explained.

"You came all the way here on my penthouse to tell me that nonsense excuse of yours?" I said as calm as I can.

I hate cheaters.

"It's true! I'm not lying Lucas, I promise."

"If you don't want me anymore then tell me and were done."

"N-no, it's not like that. P-please Lucas believe me."

I love Grace, I really do. We are in a relationship for 3 years turning 4 next month. We will not last this long if we don't love each other, but I know that our relationship is not perfect, were not perfect.

But in our case right now, I'm a hundred percent sure that I'm not at fault. If we'll end this relationship right now, I will never regret anything. I know that I did my part as her partner and we both know that she's the problem, it's not my loss anyway.

"M-maybe someone wants to ruin our relationship. You know, I have a lot of haters and they will do anything to ruin my career and even our relationship. P-please Lucas, I will never cheat on you." I just stared at her.

She has a point. She's a famous actress and model not just here in the Philippines but also internationally.

"Lucas don't leave me, I'm begging you." She hugged me.

I didn't hug her back, and I removed her hands around me instead.

"Just go home and take a rest for now, we'll talk some other time okay?" I wiped her tears.

She nodded and walked through the door voluntarily. I followed her outside my penthouse, she glanced at me one more time before I closed the door.

I walked back and I'm about to sleep when my phone suddenly rang. Jervin is calling, one of my friends.

"Hey dude! What's up? We're here at Nicko's bar because Gio and his girlfriend just broke up so were having a pity party for him right now. Come here dude, we'll wait for you." I sighed.

"Alright, wait for me."

~~~

"What happened?" I asked as soon as I entered our VIP room.

"His girlfriend got pregnant, and guess what? His not the father and our dude is just so kind that he is willing to let go." Jervin answered instead.

I shook my head. Gio and his girl is in a relationship for 4 years so how come?

"I really loved her dude, I gave her everything! My everything! But no, she's having a baby and I don't want her baby to have a broken family." Gio said while crying and drowning himself with alcohol.

He looked so miserable.

I just seat next to Jervin and watched my friend get wasted.

"Let's just drink the night away dude, maybe she's not the one." Said Nicko.

"Look Gio, just think of it like you're in some kind of charity. Just think that you gave away something that is very important to you because someone needs it more than you. Do you get me?" Jervin said without thinking.

"What a nonsense advice Jervin." I said.

"I just want her to be happy. Tell me dude, where did I go wrong? Am I not enough? Tell me!" Gio exclaimed.

I shook my head once again. This will going to be a long night. I just ordered one can of beer because these three will surely get drunk.

"It's okay dude, you'll find someone better than her. We know that you can get through this sh*t, we believe in you." Said Nicko, the best adviser.

"I can't live without her, we already planned for our future. I'm just dreaming right?! Right?!!" Gio said dramatically.

The conversation went on and on. I'm just here listening and watching silently to these three.

Nicko and Jervin said a lot of encouraging words to Gio until he passed out.

And now it's time to go home.

"I'll just go get the car and wait for me on the entrance." I said and walked fast to get my car.

I'm passing through the ocean of drunk dancing people when suddenly someone bumped into me and poured her drinks into my suit.

"Oh f*ck." I cursed silently.

"Opps! HAHAHA sorry babe." She said almost passing out.

I shook my head and continued walking.

I just want to take my friends home so I can go home and rest. It's a very long day for me.

~~~

"Hey! One margarita please." Said the girl beside me.

I'm here at Nicko's bar again, waiting for him to finish his business with something.

"Hey babe! Alone?" She asked. I did nothing.

She moved closer to me.

"Why is a handsome looking guy doing here alone? Wanna have some fun tonight with me? Hmm?" She asked again.

It's obvious that she's flirting with me. Someone wants to get laid tonight huh?

"Oh! By the way, I'm Heaven Lee. What's your name?"

Heaven Lee? Oh! One of Jervin's ex. I glanced at her to confirm and yeah, she is.

"Wanna go out with me?" She asked again.

Is she that desperate?

I looked at her with a creased on my forehead and said "Look woman, I'm not here for a one night stand. So if you're that horny, just look for another dude to f*ck out there."

Then I stood up and saw Nicko walking towards me so I meet him halfway.

"Is that Heaven Lee? Jervin's ex? She's a regular customer here. Is she hitting on you?" He asked curiously.

"Let's just go." I said, not minding his questions.
