Chapter 500 - What’s Not Meant To Be Will Never Be (1/2)
Kane arrived at the address Cali gave him. He was still in a grim mood, but he had to compose himself and not reveal anything regarding her relationship with Rui to her.
His car was still waiting outside the gate. He had to call Cali for permission to enter because the scanner could not recognize his vehicle so the gate was not automatically opening for him.
”He sure has tightened the security…” he mused with flaring nostrils, and he could bet that Rui would not definitely give him access to anything inside.
Finally, the gate opened, and his car was able to enter the premises. Cali had already explained to him when he was on his way that it was grandpa Lua's decision for her to live with Dr. Rui. Obviously it was a biased decision of grandpa Lua in favor of Rui since they still acknowledged his marriage with Cali.
Kane did not feel discouraged with that fact because what was important to him was to have Cali's heart for himself. So he was determined to do his utmost to steal her heart this time, while her brain could not remember Rui.
He still believed that she was too young and what she felt for Rui before losing her memories was mere infatuation. And now with her mind cleared off of Rui's love, he had a fair chance with her.
He quickly went out of the car and saw Cali waiting for him.
”Kane!” Cali burst and quickly ran to hug him. Rui saw that scene from his balcony, and he felt as if sharp knives were stabbing his heart brutally.
He was aware that Kane was Cali's friend, and it was her natural way of greeting Kane ever since he entered Cali's life, so Rui tried to understand the situation as a mature person, though his heart was restless and he could feel pain seeing their intimacy.
Cali greeted Kane very enthusiastically and welcomed him with a warm embrace while her first meeting with him… Cali's first reaction to him was to ask who he was!
Unknowingly tears fell from Rui's eyes. He was living every day in hope and was trying to bring back her memories using his professional psychological tactics. What he did not consider was the hindrance in his plans due to the arrival of his live rival.
He turned around and sat down on the couch of his bedroom. He did not want to annoy Cali anymore by showing himself while she entertained her friend. Besides, he was not sure if his poor heart could even take her intimate gestures with that bastard who was here interrupting their lives.
But then he could not control the possessiveness he had for his wife, so he took some deep breaths and composed himself then went out of his bedroom to join the two of them in the garden.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=14191303206660205)/what%E2%80%99s-not-meant-to-be-will-never-be_%!d(string=49343298279635494) for visiting.
He wore a poker smile on his face and sat on the available chair near Cali.
”So you're Kane. You know what you look a little familiar…” Rui commented.
Cali then formally introduced the two out of respect since she and Kane were both inside Rui's territory. Her private doctor still irritated her, but she did not hate the fact that he joined them outside to mingle.
Rui extended his hand. Like him, Kane too had a poker smile and he too bent forward a little and accepted his hand for a shake but instantly his face twitched when Rui exerted pressure and squeezed his hand very hard, almost making Him wince in pain.
Cali noticed Kane's uncomfortable face, so she asked, ”What's going on?”
That instant, Rui released his hand and gave Cali his sweetest smile as he asked, ”Cali dear… I'm sure Kane would love to have some snacks after his long flight. How about you prepare something for your guest while I entertain him?”
”Oh yeah, Kane, Wait here. I'll go get something for you…”
