Hunter''s POV


    The moment we arrived at our house in the city, in one of the high-end subdivisions, I asked Frank to get drinks from my father''s bar. AndI drink as many as I can because I want to forget Reba, but no matter how drunk I am, I can''t stop thinking about her beautiful face, her mesmerizing eyes, and most of all, her captivating smile that always takes my breath away. Reba''s dimples make me crazy, and I love her so much, but her betrayal made me so furious, and I promised myself I would never let any girl fool me again. I am not going to love anyone, not in this lifetime.


    My phone kept on ringing, and when I get tired, I answered it, and I call her a slut for how many times, and I never listen to her exnation. After all, I turned so deaf because I am mad at her.


    "Reba, I can never forgive you for what you have done to me. Do you betray me with a gardener? You slut, I hate you, and I don''t want to see you anymore, and you better leave right now in our house." I said.


    "Hunter, please, don''t do this to me. I am begging you, listen to me, Hunter. I don''t have any rtionship with Luke, and we were just friends." Reba said on the other line, but I yelled at her.


    "Aren''t you ashamed of yourself? Do you think I will believe you? I will never listen to your lies, Reba. Please, disappear without a trace because I hate you, and when I get back tomorrow. Could you get out of our mansion? I never thought I fell in love with a user." I dered.


    "You could have at least find someone else, not the gardener," I said.


    "Hunter, you have to listen to me, I, " I ended the call, and I didn''t let Reba finish her sentence because the more I listen to her, the more I remembered her deception on me. I turned off my phone that night, and I focused my attention on my drinks, and I used the alcohol to make myself forget the pain that I felt.


    "I know I am not in the position to tell you what to do, Hunter, but I think it would be better if you give Reba a chance to exin her side so that you will have no regrets in the future." Frank dered.


    "Frank, I know what I am doing, and I will never have any regrets. Besides, if I will give her a chance to talk with me about it, I am sure she will assume I am giving her another opportunity to cheat on me." I said to him.


    "Hunter, don''t rush things; it could be Reba is innocent." Frank replied, but I am too angry to listen with logic.


    Frank didn''t leave me that night, and I can''t stand up because of my drunkness, and he brought me to my room and settled myself on my bed, and I know I want to forget Reba. Still, it is impossible to forget all about her because she is my first love. I know I was turning on my bed that night, calling Reba''s name while sobbing. I was young back then, but I know I love her with all my heart, but I can''t stop myself from hating her because I cannot forget the image of Reba kissing another man.


    "Hunter! Hunter!" I heard Frank''s voice waking me up, but I have the worst hangover in my entire life, and I realized I had drunk too much the other night. But Frank kept waking me up, and I didn''t have a choice but to open my eyes and looked at him.


    "What do you want, Frank?" I asked.


    "Mrs. Leticia Divenson wants to talk with you on the phone." He replied.


    "Did you turn on my phone?" I asked angrily.


    "No, I didn''t," He answered while he handed me his phone.


    "It is not Reba, I promised you." He said, and I sighed and grabbed the phone from his hand.


    "Hunter, son, you have to listen to me." I heard my mother''s soft voice on the other line.


    "Mom, I am still sleeping. It is still very early." I dered.


    "It is almost noon, Hunter. I understand now what happenedst night, but you need to find Reba. She left the mansion." My mother said, and I can feel the worries in her voice.


    "Mom, Reba cheated on me, and I asked her to leave," I said in a growl.


    "Hunter, there was a misunderstanding, Luke talked to me this morning, and he apologized and exined he doesn''t have any rtionship with Reba. Someone ordered him to kiss Reba on the night before the wedding day and make it looked like they were in a real rtionship in the garden in exchange for a big amount of money that he needed for his mother''s operation. Luke told me he was sorry. He felt guilty that he ruined Reba''s rtionship with you. He showed me the text messages from an unknown number." My mother said, and I suddenly felt cold all over my body. I know I felt so happy that Reba didn''t cheat on me, but the realization that I didn''t trust her and I didn''t give her a chance to defend herself made me shivered. I know I was such a fool and a jerk, and I am ashamed of what I have done, and there is only one thing that I wanted to do at that time, I need to find Reba.


    "Luke left at dawn because he was afraid for his life because he told me all about it; he begged me not to tell a single soul about this scheme. I don''t know who was behind all this. He told me he met the man secretly in the city where he signed some papers and gave him his bank details. And right now, he doesn''t know where to go because he was afraid this man would hunt him down. After all, he already used the money." My mom added, and I wonder who will pay such arge amount to make me hate Reba, and I acknowledged he nailed it. He ruined my beautiful rtionship with her. I am such a fool for judging the love of my life, and I let my anger overshadowed my love for her.


    "Oh, mom, I made a big mistake. Did she tell you where is she going?" I asked.


    "I never reached her in her room, and I think she left early, and I think one of the drivers helped her. I can tell some of her important documents were gone, and I can tell she only brought few clothes with her because she is pregnant." My mom responded.


    "I need to find her, mom, she is carrying my child, and I love her so much, but I pushed her away, and I told her bad things, and I judged her. What should I do?" I asked my mom.


    "Don''t me yourself, Hunter. Your reactions were only normal. You were hurt because of what you have witnessed; no one in his right mind will ept that kind of scene easily. I know your anger blinded you because you saw them kissing. And I also understand that Reba is in pain right now, you''re the only one she can lean on, and you drove her away. Try to look around the city and think of the possible ce she wants to go. Don''t worry, son, you will find her." My mom said, and I can''t stop myself from feeling lost, and I felt my entire body was shaking.


    "Thank you, mom, but I don''t think she will forgive me for what I had done to her." I said.


    "Of course, she will give you another chance because she loves you, Hunter." My mom responded, and I felt so lucky that my mother gave me enough encouragement when I felt so hopeless and my mind is in disarray. I can''t think straight, and my guilt is eating me up.


    "You better start looking for her now, Hunter." My mom said.


    "Thank you, mom." I said, and I ended the call, and I looked at Frank feeling so lost, and I don''t know where to start looking for her.


    "We need to go, Frank," I dered in a stern tone.


    "I thought you had a headache, and you still want to sleep." He responded.


    "No, I don''t want to sleep until I take Reba back home into the Divenson mansion, and there is no way I am going to get back to sleep when I know Reba is out there hurting. You were right, Frank; Reba was innocent. I should have listened to her and gave her a chance to exin." I dered, and I feel so defeated. I was afraid if I can''t see her anymore. It seems my drowsiness and hangover were gone when my mom told me about what happenedst night, and I don''t understand what the motive of the man behind all my sufferings was. I don''t have any enemy I can think of, and Reba was innocent, and there is no one I can think of that will hurt her this way.


    I don''t think Kaye will lower her standard and do something as stupid as it was because she will always be proud of herself. Even my sister, like Kaye, I know Charlotte will never do something like this because she cares about our family reputation. And my father already epted Reba, and he will do everything in his power to protect our family from any scandal. Who will do this to us? Do I trust my family this much? Maybe someone out there wastrying to destroy our family prominence.


    "I need to find, Reba, Frank, whatever it takes, and I can''t forgive myself if something happens to her." I dered as we rode my car without direction, he turned his gaze to me, and I can see worries in his eyes. I like Frank because I can feel that he cared about me like I am his son.. His presence on that day helped me remain calm even though I know I am panicking, and I am losing my mind because I realized Reba is my life, and my son in her womb is important to me, and I love them both.
