Chapter 254 - If only I could smash everything. (2/2)

”Karan knew everything and still played a good guy? He fooled mom by making her believe that he was helping, but in reality, he wanted to take Innaya away?” I almost strangled the pillow, imagining it to be Sahil and Karan's neck. ”And, who played him by the nose? Karan? Did he use Sahil?”

Arjun shook his head, throwing a red marble from the bowl placed at the table for the decoration purpose at me.”Stop jumping to conclusions.”

”... Are you for real?” I caught the marble before it could hit me on the head and returned the throw at him, which he skillfully avoided by moving his head.

Arjun chuckled. ”Tsk-Tsk! This is what happens when you do not know what patience is. I lured you into the trap, and you jumped, missing your best chance to attack.”

I sneered at him. Was this the time to riddle?

”Stop with your riddles, and get to the point.”

”Huh? Be more respectful.”

I sighed. Getting irritated was not the option. I calmed down before asking Arjun to explain everything.

”I won't say a word now. Tell me everything.” I tightened my grip on the pillow. By now, I was sure that the pillow cover must be torn, yet I did not glance down.

Keeping my eyes fixed on the man holding all the information I needed, I waited for him to start talking.

”What's Sahil weakness?” Arjun asked. He again shifted the topic and jumped to be a questionnaire.

”Gold Digger women,” I answered swiftly. Sahil's past made him the way he was. His whole family almost got destroyed because of a woman. So his hatred for the women who destroyed other families for money was well known in our friend circle. And, that was the reason I had let him go when he was insulting Innaya.

”Right!” Arjun nodded. ”Someone made him believe that Innaya was a gold digger who wanted to destroy you.”

This time I could not sit still. Neither punching the pillow was enough to ease my anger.

”Before you scream, remember that I will leave,” Arjun said in a lowered voice as he tilted his head in the direction of the door.

That shut me up instantly though the anger burning in my chest only grew stronger.

If only I could smash everything.
