2-Betraying Heartbreak

-Steven POV-

"How could you Kai?! After everything we've been through! How could you just throw that all away for a cheque with some money?",I screamed at him confused and angry. I just found out my best friend had helped my wretched family plan my murder,the one that ended up killing my girlfriend a few years ago....Of course I'd be emotional.

Tears threatened to fall from my eyes but I wouldn't let them. According to what I was told a bomb had been planted into my car to kill me on my camping trip that weekend. Seeing as I'm alive it backfired of course,when the bomb exploded I was far away fishing. My girlfriend wasn't so lucky.... the entire campsite was on fire and she died before help could arrive.

I was distraught after that but Kai was there for me and comforted me. It took a little over year but I had somehow managed to move on,at least enough for me to function normally again. We even got rid of all her old stuff,except her faux fur coat that was the first gift I gave her I could never get rid of it Now however I hear this man in front of me is responsible for her death.

He was silent up till now but he finally spoke. "Steven listen....there was no bomb.",he said simply. Fury overtook my sadness quickly after that. "The hell are you talking about?! I heard the explosion I saw the scene with my own eyes how could there have NOT been a bomb!" He sighed.

"It was nothing but an act. The trees in the area has been chopped almost completely down and the campsite was set on fire purposefully. Using a speaker we played the sound of a bomb explosion. Nothing major.",he explained. "And what about....what about Charlotte?",I croaked. I've never said her name in the past year. "She was....an uncalculated and honest mistake. All we knew was that you were going on your own so her death wasn't foreseen.",he told me grimly. His eyes darted away from mine.

"But...why?! My family have done nothing but neglect me my ENTIRE LIFE! If it weren't for my frequent visits  to your house and having meals there I would've died do you understand that?!",I screamed. "I was offered the opportunity and paid a lot of money alright and......frankly I never considered you much of a friend anyways so it was easy.",he replied coldly. I froze. This guy who had been my best friend for years never....considered me.....a friend?

"I knew you were the black sheep of your family,a very RICH family. I knew if I stuck around long enough I'd reap some benefits. I was right I'm rolling in millions thanks to you,since you didn't die though I was never paid in full...". I listened and felt more and more shattered.

"Get out.",I said coldly. "Hmm? That's it no police or anything are gonna be involved?",he questioned. "The higher ups in my family are skilled on this sort of thing. They wouldn't leave a trace. Its why the law enforcement teams call them The Cheat. Life's consequences can't touch them and the same will go for you.",I explained. I'm the head of this family I know what happens,its why I try to distance from it.....

He shrugged. "Alright then,see ya later buddy!",he said warmly and left my office. I fell on the floor as all the emotions I'd held back came flooding in at once. Tears and muffled screams with the occasional 'why' all came flooding out. After a few hours I'd calmed down
