234: Chapter 234 - You love him or his money?

Chapter 234 - You love him or his money?

"That is what you think but that is not the truth," Zayla said and Sabrina was confused, asking,2

"What are you talking about?"

"I didn't learn about Robin from you," Zayla looked at Sabrina and said, knowing that the truth was going to hurt her badly because though Sabrina considered her as a friend, Zayla did not see Sabrina as such.

"That is another lie," Sabrina said seriously, her expression grim. 

For as long as she was concerned, she poured her heart into her friendship with Zayla.

"It's true Sabrina, I only got close to you because of him. Because his father and yours were friends, you already had access to him," Zayla revealed, Sabrina froze, as she slowly took in Zayla's painful words.

"So, all this while, you used me?"

Pain registered in Sabrina's eyes as she asked, wondering how things got so bad. How could she not have known or seen it? 

It was a simple truth that Sabrina trusted Zayla when the latter was only using her as a stepping stone to reach Robin.

"Every woman would do anything for the man he loves," Zayla lowered her head and spoke, Sabrina shook her head in disagreement but was so hurt by the pain that she did not utter a word.

"Do you love him or his money?" Matilda interrupted and asked in annoyance. 

She had wanted to go and greet her father before this whole thing began but it was so fast that everybody was just forced to stay and listen.

However, she was greatly annoyed with Zayla, because of how she had been the invisible manipulating force in Sabrina's marriage, even before she reappeared in Robin's life again.

Zayla was not afraid of Matilda, as she was of Sabrina because of Robin. 

Also, everything she was saying did not directly involve Matilda but only Sabrina.

Devin was happy to see Zayla in this mess and was enjoying the show, sipping wine whilst everybody else lost their appetite.

He was just waiting for the interesting part about Zayla's pregnancy and was beginning to like Robin even more, especially after knowing that Robin was just a victim of circumstance and Sabrina was subtly a part of the problem.

If she had not let Zayla in on her secrets, she would not have taken advantage of it and also, for being too gullible in her youth.

"I don't care if you believe me but everything I did was because I loved him," Zayla said to Matilda.

Robin wanted to gag, thinking of the stupid love she claimed to feel for him. 

"Why don't you tell us the full story, Zayla?" Robin asked her expressionlessly, as he sat back in his chair.

Since the bodyguard was trained to stand for long hours, he remained on his feet, waiting for Robin's orders.

Zayla directed her answers directly to Robin.

"You might not remember me but I always tried to get your attention and yet, you won't even look at me. You would easily give other girls attention but did not even know that we lived in the same neighborhood."

It was clear to the audience that Robin never liked Zayla from the onset, as everybody paid close attention to her confession without interruption.

"Every girl loved you and you were always everywhere but when I stopped seeing you around, going to school, or coming back, I grew worried. I wanted to come to your house but I didn't have access."

Robin could guess that was when his kidney problem worsened. 

At first, with the amount of money his family had, he had no doubt he was going to get a donor soon, taking his medications, and not worrying that things would get worse until he was given a timeline of one week. 

His zeal for school died as to why he would continue going to school when he was going to die anyway. 

He would rather spend the remaining days of his life away from the public's eyes to not be missed by them.

At that crucial time of his life, Zayla appeared in his living room like an angel when he was watching TV and said that he would be fine. 

At that time, he wanted to send her away but she quickly spoke about his condition and how she had to find her way to him because she wanted to give him her kidney since they had the same blood group.

That was the first time she and Robin spoke but he still could not understand one thing,

"So how did you manage to come to my house that day?" Robin asked.

"That was after I befriended Sabrina for a few weeks or a month, precisely. She was the one who told me about your condition and said that she was going to give you her kidney."

"I was afraid that if she did, you would feel indebted to her and love her because she saved your life so when she said that she would not tell you until you fell in love with her, I took advantage of it and came to meet you."

Zayla forced a bitter smile, finding it difficult to believe that after everything, her cup got filled so quickly.

Whereas, she had no choice but to continue her confession.

"That day, I knew she was coming to see you since she said she was going to tell you how in love she was with you so I told the security that she called me to come."

"She was like family to you, so as soon as I mentioned her name, I was let in. When I told you that I was going to give you my kidney, you were happy and hugged me."

Zaya remembered that day. It was the first time she mastered courage to speak to him and just as expected, he welcomed her into his life because she promised to give him her kidney.

Sabrina was surprised because the scene looked as if they were making out and her heart broke into pieces, thinking that Robin and Zayla were going out or something.

It was such a shame that she left that day with her mind filled with those thoughts but was happy that she still decided to save his life and Robin still had some puzzling questions…
