Sarah left the office building where Mitchell's office – her husband was. He was very angry. And he could only show his anger after making sure he was away from there.
"You're really being outrageous, Mitch! How can you treat me like that? I keep begging for your attention, but you don't seem to care. Who do you think you are? Just watch, I'll prove who your damn ex-fiancé is."
Sarah kept cursing her husband until she didn't realize that someone had been watching her. He stood not far from where Sarah was with his arms crossed over his chest and his body propped against a tree.
"What a big surprise to find the wife of a famous businessman using her beloved husband with dirty words. I can't imagine what will happen if your husband finds out."
Sarah was surprised to see the presence of a man who, of course, she knew very well. He really was like a thief caught red-handed this time.
"Devan… What are you doing here? Y-did you hear what I said earlier?
"Of course. Hahaha, I didn't expect it. As it turned out, the wife of Mitchell, a businessman who is famous for being handsome and rich, actually likes to curse too. What I couldn't understand was that the person who was being cursed at was her own husband. It was a very big surprise for me."
Sarah had a panic attack. He was afraid that Devan would record everything and pass it on to those who knew him. Sarah didn't want her reputation tarnished just because of her stupidity today.
"If you want to ask if I recorded everything, then the answer is no. I wouldn't be that mean to you. What's in it for me anyway? So you take it easy."
"Thank you. You haven't said why you are here? Did you follow me before?"
Sarah again suspected the man in front of her. For some reason, since marrying Mitchell, she has always thought badly of everyone she knows. In the end, some of his best friends chose to stay away because they didn't like his suspicious attitude.
"I'm not that low-key person following other people. Incidentally, I was just out for lunch. I was going to eat at the recently opened restaurant nearby. But I seem to have changed my mind, and now I'm confused about what to eat."
"How about we having lunch together, Devan? I also happen to be very hungry. I have a favorite restaurant that will surely satisfy your appetite."
"Wow, what an honor it was to have lunch with you, Sarah. All right, then, what are you waiting for? Let's go to that restaurant."
Sarah smiled to cover her embarrassment at being caught wearing her husband. But, he believes, Devan will not reveal this stupidity to anyone.
Sarah knows Devan well. Even though there had been problems between them in the past, that was all in the past, and there was nothing to worry about anymore.
The two of them walked hand in hand like lovers. Sarah looks beautiful in a maroon mini dress and high heels of the same color, combined with a small necklace that is perfectly attached to her long neck. Not to forget, Hermes, who is now Sarah's pride every time she leaves the house, is tightly gripped in her right hand.
Meanwhile, Devan ... his face that blends European and Asian makes many girls willing to be his mistress. Sarah could see how Devan was like a magnetic field for the girls who stole glances on their way to the restaurant.
"Is it still far? I'm afraid you're tired. Moreover, with high heels that support her long legs," said Devan, worried about himself.
"We'll be here in a minute. Don't worry, I'm used to this," replied Sarah, her cheeks turning red because she was flattered that someone was still watching her.
The two of them arrived at a restaurant that served Japanese food. From first, he really liked the food of this cherry country. This is a favorite restaurant where he always spends more time when he is in that place.
In the past, when she was a secretary at the company, Sarah would often take Mitchell to lunch there. They both have a lot in common. Both Sarah and Mitchell love Japanese food the most.
"Do you and Mitchell often eat lunch together? If I may ask, why are you in the park near your husband's office building?" Devan asked while chewing a piece of sushi.
Sarah was silent to the question. It felt like not answering the question, but he did have to answer in order to avoid the suspicion of Devan.
"We used to come to this restaurant often. But Mitchell is so busy right now that he hardly has time for me," he replied to Devan. "Thank you for coming with me to lunch this afternoon," he continued.
"No need to thank me. I should have said that. Never mind, don't think about it. You seem to have just met your husband. Even since you were with Della, he almost didn't have time for that girl," said Devan, who immediately covered his mouth because he mentioned the name of her husband's ex-fiance. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean ..." he continued immediately.
"Relax. I understand. Besides being friends with Mitchell, you also know Della well. So, it's only natural that you still remember their memories," Sarah answered, trying to cover up her annoyance.
***
The two of them ate in an awkward atmosphere due to Devan's words which seemed to be intentional by him. Devan just wanted to know Sarah's reaction when she started mentioning Della.
Devan was in the park near Mitchell's office building because he had a meeting with one of his business colleagues. Della was also with him at that time. However, when they saw Sarah's presence, Della chose to go and asked her to approach the woman who looked annoyed.
Luckily, Sarah didn't really suspect him. Although he still remembered how Sarah had treated him in the past, but, for Della's sake, he was willing to be sweet in front of her and forget all his grudges.
"How can I forget the insults that Sarah threw at me in the past. In my life, I will never forget it. Just waiting for the right time to avenge this hurt," said Devan in his heart.
***
"So, how was your lunch today? Was it fun eating face to face with your own enemy, Devan?"
Devam knew, Della asked while about his meeting with Sarah, who is Mitchell's wife – his ex-fiancé.
He only responded with a laugh and told how nervous he was when he was caught wearing Mitchell in the park.
"If you only saw the expression on Sarah's face at that time, you would definitely laugh out loud. She is exactly like a thief who was caught stealing something," said Devan.
"Hahaha, isn't he really a thief? Oops wrong, more like a two-faced person," said Della, smiling sarcastically, imagining the face of Sarah who was her enemy.
Devan understands how Della hates Sarah. Moreover, it was also the woman who had made him fail to marry Mitchell.
It was Sarah who secretly made rumors about her affair with Javier Mascherano – her childhood best friend who has now chosen to return to the country where she has lived with one of her relatives since the death of her parents.
"Just play the girl's lick game. Let Mitchell keep thinking we have a special relationship without him knowing. But be careful with Sarah. I'm afraid she will hurt you," said Javier before leaving Birmingham.
Javier also asks Devan for help to guard him from a distance. Because, until that moment, Della was not ready to return to her parents' house and chose to live in one of the apartments in disguise.
"I realize it won't be that easy for Sarah. She is very cunning. However, I will keep trying. May God bless my steps," said Della, praying.
"Then we should start making plans for them, and don't waste too much time," said Devan.
Della is not going to waste her time proving who Sarah really is. The woman had gone too far to have the heart to snatch the happiness she should have felt.
Seizes Mitchell by threatening himself for something he never did with his childhood best friend, Javier Mascherano. Tried to pressure Della with rumors of her relationship with Javier, and it worked.
"I will indeed repay all the treatment you have done to me before, Sarah. But, it is not that easy. The thing I will do is make you depressed. Just like you did to me before," he smiled sarcastically.
Devan looked at the woman who wore a mysterious smile. He did not expect the woman he used to know as a gentle person to now be transformed into a cold and untouchable woman.
Disappointment matures Della, and Devan really sees the glint of revenge in the eyes of the woman who is his best friend.
"Mitchell, you should have realized it. You have thrown away the smartest woman on earth, and chose a stupid and cunning woman like Sarah," said Devan chosen at the woman.
***
Meanwhile, far away in the other hemisphere, specifically in Italy. Javier Mascherano is talking to someone over the phone about the news of his childhood friend – Della.
"So, she's back in Birmingham? What do you think my girl is planning to do this time? I can't wait to see her reveal the cunning of a girl named Sarah," said Javier, smiling, imagining the face of his childhood best friend. "Keep up to date with progress. I eagerly await any news you provide," he continued.
Javier immediately hung up and resumed work that had been delayed by the call. He was much happier now. I wanted to come to Birmingham and meet Della. However, he didn't want to spoil her plans with her presence.
Javier wants to see Della work things out with Mitchell and Sarah in the past without getting her involved. Although Della's fiancé, to be more precise, his ex-fiancé accused him of having taken the woman away on his wedding day.
Javier did not accept the accusation and ordered people to find out the truth. Devan ... the person who had been secretly an informant for him, also told everything he heard from Della's lips.
How Sarah used to pressure her childhood best friend to admit their relationship and the scandal they never committed. Until it made Della depressed and chose to give in and then leave as Sarah wanted Mitchell to love her.
"You are sly, Sarah. I will make sure you suffer for making my Della cry for three years and turning into a cold and vengeful woman. You will feel what she feels one day. I will make sure of that," said Javier Mascherano.
