His Rectifying Graze [COMPLETED✔]

CHAPTER 14: Never Ending Chaos [✔]

KATE’s P.O.V.

“I couldn’t understand it! It was Darrel that told me about this arranged marriage. And now his son has a wife?”

        I looked down, before nodding. Mom sat beside me and caressed my back, only making me feel worst.

“I told you, didn’t I?” Mom glared at Dad. “This marriage wouldn’t bring any good to our family specially to Kate...”

“I don’t need your drama, Katheryn. What I wanted to know is why did that happened!”

“Oh, so that’s what you really care about right now, Armando?” Mom stood up, looking mad at Dad. “What about your daughter?! Don’t you care about her feelings?!”

        I sighed, feeling the guilt for I am the reason why my Mom and Dad are fighting right now. I wanted to throw a tantrums and cry in front of them, remembering the scenario when I first saw my old friend after almost a decade.

“Stop it, Katheryn! I don’t want to hear it from you! I’ll go and talk to Darrel about this...”

“You’re just gonna talk to him and do nothing about this humiliation?!” Mom challenged him. “Then go ahead! That’s what you always do! You’re all talk!”

“What do you want me to do then, huh?! Force his son to marry our daughter?! He’s a married man, Katheryn!”

“That’s not what I’m talking about!”

         Dad was about to shout again when I stood up, cutting their nonsense argument.

“Stop it, both of you! You’re not even helping! If Darren doesn’t want me, then fine! I’ll make him fall for me even without your help!”

“But Kate, he’s a married man!” Mom exclaimed.

“I don’t fucking care, Mom!”

         I turned around and stomp away from them. I heard my Dad call my named several times before he finally gave up. I hid behind of our walls before I decided to secretly listen to their conversation.

“Look at what you’ve done, Armando! Now she doesn’t want to listen to us anymore!”

“She doesn’t want to listen because you're so annoying!”

“So it’s my fault now?! Who told her to get married to that man anyway? It’s you, Armando, it’s you!”

“Fine! I’ll cut all the investment and the potential business partnership between me and my bestfriend as soon as I confirmed about his son’s wife... Is that enough for you? That’s what you want to happen, right?”

“I didn’t say anything about that!” Mom complained.

“Yes, you didn’t, but that’s what you want, right? Don’t test my patience, Katheryn. I know what I’m doing so please stop ranting about this stupid marriage.”

“You’re just like my father,” my Mom stated, her voice was full of hatred.

“So? I’m only doing this for Kate and for your family’s legacy. That’s what your father did, right? He forced us to get married... And now I’m regretting it.”

         Mom burst out into tears as she heard those words. Dad left her there, alone while crying. I wanted to reached out and hug her but I couldn’t, right after what I’ve done earlier. I decided to just go into my room, and sleep.

         Hours passed by so fast and I just realized that it’s already been a week since I found out that Darren and Claire were already married to each other. Dad started to pull out all of his shares in Herrera Corp. as he promised to my Mom. They’re still aren’t talking to each other and I just tried my best to ignore it for I know that they are going to reconcile pretty much sooner or later.
