Filed To Story: Cheating with My Boyfriend's Best Friend Novel Read Online (Olive & Aaron)

After fastening my seat belt, I turned to look at Aaron’s apartment window with a fluke. Not knowing if it was my illusion, I seemed to see a person there. I r*bbed my eyes, about to look more attentively.

But the taxi driver had stepped on the accelerator, and the car raced off.

The view I saw rushed past. I looked back but saw no trace of Aaron. I thought something must be wrong with my eyes. Aaron is now making love with his fiancée. How could he spare time to think about me?

When I was at the bar, I felt emptier because of the lively atmosphere.

I sat down at the bar counter and drained two glasses of liquor, but my mind became clearer.

If I calmed down for a brief moment, the life experiences with Aaron would keep flashing across my mind. He had once been etched into my life, so how could I forget him after we broke up?

All the prattle he had said had turned into daggers, which were all stabbing my heart. I stubbornly wiped away the tears running down my cheek, took out my phone, and called Cinder. I was unable to go through the difficult night alone. I badly needed to tell my grievances to someone.

My call was soon answered. Holding the phone firmly, I said with red eyes, “Cinder, come out to drink.”

“Sweetie, how could you know I’ve returned to New York?” Cinder asked in surprise and then giggled. “I almost forgot Aaron is so resourceful. He can find my whereabouts in a few seconds. But I’m busy today! I’m working overtime on design drawings. When I get it done, I’ll go drink with you.”

Aaron! Even my friend mentioned him. Can I really forget him? I l**ked my l*ps and smiled wryly, “Then next time.”

I was about to hang up when Cinder stopped me, “Wait! Olive, you cried? Your voice sounds so hoarse. Aaron bullied you?”

Ho, ho, I thought without self-respect, bullying me is even better than ignoring me. Thinking of Aaron’s cold look, I shed the tears I had been trying so hard to hold.

I poured myself a full glass of liquor. After draining it in one gulp, I finally had the courage to tell Cinder the truth. “I broke up… Aaron has dumped me.”

“What?!” Cinder’s shock almost went through the mouthpiece. Then I

heard her sorting out things. “Send me the bar address. I’m going right now!”

Half an hour later, Cinder walked into the bar in a hurry.

She sat from across me and looked at the table in disbelief. “My goodness, you’ve poured so much down!” She snatched the glass from my hand and snapped her fi**gers, signaling the bartender to clean the table.

Dispirited, I slowly looked up at the pile of bottles in front of me. It’s strange! I’ve drunk so much, but why don’t I feel drunk at all?

Cinder took my arm and shook it. “Olive, what happened? What’s wrong with you and Aaron?”

“Aaron, he…” I had kept telling myself to be strong for a whole day. Yet, when it came to this topic, I still had a heavy heart. “Aaron has a fiancée, and they’ve moved in.”

“What?” Cinder stood up in shock. She realized that she overreacted, so she immediately covered her mouth. Then she frowned and said, “What a scum! How could he treat you like this? Damn, I misread him!”

She rummaged through her handbag for her mobile phone and took it out, going to dial Aaron’s number. “Olive, I’ll shout at him right away.”

With my hand at the corner of the table, I was to unsteadily get up to stop Cinder. “It’s not Aaron’s fault. It’s all my fault…” Maybe because I had drunk too much, I couldn’t immediately stand up. Instead, with … legs giving way, I fell to the floor with a thud.

On the floor, I didn’t realize what was going on. Cinder had come over in a hurry to help me up. “Does it hurt? Which part hit the floor?”

I feel the pain. Of course, I do! Remembering that Aaron didn’t want me, I felt great pain in my heart.

Tears kept rolling down from the corners of my eyes. I sat there and hugged my knees, whimpering sadly.

“Honey.” Cinder squatted down, opened her arms to hug me, and patted my back gently like coaxing a baby, asking, “What happened?”

Her face looked anxious, and her eyes turned red.

Leaning in her arms, I sobbed out what had happened during the past two days, feeling like recalling a nightmare.

After hearing my words, Cinder frowned and couldn’t help cursing, “Vincent is a despicable and shameless villain. He used your sympathy to get you!”

I didn’t even have the strength to scold Vincent now. I was too stupid, so I had fallen into his trap. After reviewing this matter, I fully realized how wrong I was. Coincidentally, I had agreed to a fake marriage with Vincent shortly after rejecting Aaron’s marriage proposal.

When Aaron had been preventing me from coming back to New York in every possible way, I had resolutely taken the plane back without telling him. He had called me countless times. If I had answered one of them and made things clear, things would not have become so bad.

But I had taken his affection for me as a weapon and acted willfully. And now, this weapon had pierced into my heart too.

After scolding Vincent for a long time, Cinder patted me on the shoulder and said softly, “Aaron might be deliberately provoking you in a fit of anger. Everyone can see how he likes you. So, he will never dump you. Don’t think nonsense.”

Cinder’s comfort gave me a little more confidence. But what Aaron had said to me today made me have no courage to go to meet him. I was not sure if he still liked me, but I knew I had broken his heart.

Yesterday, he had told me because he wanted to apologize to me

that he had flown to Las Vegas. At the thought of this, I felt so sad that I couldn’t breathe. He was such a proud man but had bowed his head time and time when I made trouble out of nothing. And now, I had made him badly heartbroken.

Would he forgive me? If it were in the past, I would have said yes with certainty. But now, I was not sure.

I leaned in Cinder’s arms and let the tears flow down my cheek, saying, “If I could turn back time, I would not do this to him again.”

It was not until losing him that I realized how tolerant he had been toward

Cinder stroked my hair and said, “He will forgive you when he calms down. Don’t be so sad.”

This matter gave me a headache, and I wanted to get completely drunk. So, I grabbed her arm and said, “I want to drink.”

She nodded, “Okay, I’ll accompany you.”

Then, I drank until I had a blackout and didn’t even know I had gotten home.

But Cinder’s comfort made me regain a hint of confidence. At first, my guilty conscience and fear had made me lose my mind. After I calmed down, I realized Aaron could hardly find another fiancée within such a short time.

Then, I tried to contact him every day by sending messages to or calling him. I had ignored all his messages before. And now, I tasted the bitter feeling of being ignored too.

I wanted to go to his house to meet him. But since seeing his “fiancée” opening the door that day, I had felt afraid. And I could not pluck up the courage to go there again.
