His Purchased Wife

Aurora POV:-

"OMG girlz! That man could kiss like a pro, I could still feel myself in his arms," Emily chirped dreamily.

"Will you stop your telling a tale about that fucking session with your hot price of ass and focus on work. Some might not need it but we do, at the end of the day it's important for our career unless you are someone who just wants to think about a man who didn't care about her."

I closed my eyes and fisted my hands to remain calm but this continuous taunting from her was making her furious. "Em! Tell that person sitting in front of you that the person she was talking about knew her responsibilities really well and her personal issues will not be a hurdle in her career."

"Ya right! I saw that myself how that person was just being submissive as the other person wished her to be and if her best friend told her something about it she just became angry at her and fought with her. So I know how responsible that person is."

We both were talking to each other through Emily who looked at us both with a disgusting expression on her face. "Alright stop it both of you and tell me what the fuck happened between you both again?" She snapped at us.

I glanced at Susan who let out a deep sigh, "what happens is I am fucking worried about us and her! Just tell me Em, since she started dating has she given us enough time? No, her day starts with Gabe and ends with him. It's like we are not important in her life. I would have accepted that trust me, but she is taking her career for granted as well!

I gasped at her accusation, I pushed Emily aside and walked to Susan. " Are you accusing me of forgetting our friendship?" I snarled at her.

"Yes! I am saying exactly that Aurora. Okay, my thoughts could be biased because I don't like Gabe but Emily is here, ask her about it." She gestured at Emily with her chin. I turned to her and she raised her brows and shrugged casually.

"Do you feel the same way Em?" I asked her hurt by Susan's way of thinking. I love her and Emily both. Yes, Gabe was one of the most important persons in my life but Susan and Emily were part of my life way before Gabe. How could she even think like that about me?

"Tell me!" I snapped at Emily.

"Well, please don't mind Aurora but Susan is right. Since Gabe came into your life your priorities changed. Before Gabe, you were focused on your career even when we had no orders and now, when we have a golden opportunity in our hands you are still distracted because of Gabe. You might not feel it but we do, Aurora. You have changed a lot…"

I blinked twice, all I could feel at that moment was horrible. I turned my head to Susam who had her hands crossed over her chest and looked away from me. She rolled her shoulder to her cheek and cleared her throat. I felt like a complete failure. How could I be such an idiot?

Susan had no one except for me, we were together since kindergarten. Our mom's used to be friends and we were more than friends, we were sorority sisters to each other. After her mom died and her dad married thrice she felt dejected with him. She called me her only family and I failed her. I failed my bestie.

I glanced at Emily who nodded at me in encouragement. With heavy feet, I walked up to Susan. She still didn't look my way. I rolled my lips inward and moved closer to her, so close that our shoulders touched. She stepped back and I moved a step further again.
