Love Worth Fighting For

440 The Browman

“Why are you talking like that? Don’t you love her anymore? Have you given up your struggle for nearly six years?” Aldrich, who is a loyal supporter of Areez and Suri, looks disappointed to hear Areez’s words.

“Angelica came back to me and she…”

“What?! When will she come home ah I don’t mean why did she come again to Auckland isn’t she already living happily with her husband?” Aldrich again bombarded Areez with several questions at once.

“Angelica is seriously ill, she won’t have long to live.”

“What?” Aldrich shouted loudly again.

“Patricia said this to me this afternoon, she said that her sister’s condition was very bad and now Angel needed me,” said Areez again in a hoarse voice.

Aldrich shook his head, he still didn’t understand what his friend meant. Since Areez managed to move on from the daughter of the former president of New Zealand who had betrayed him, Aldrich has tried not to mention her name in front of Areez. Even when Patricia, Angelica’s sister, joined Aldrich’s company, she kept her ears closed from all discussions concerning Angelica. Apart from not wanting Areez’s wound to open again, Aldrich also wanted to protect Suri’s feelings, who at that time had already accepted Areez as her lover.

With such deep sadness, Areez recounted what Patricia had said to him this afternoon at the office, even though Angelica Brownman had betrayed him, Areez still could not ignore her current condition, which was seriously ill.

“Leukemia?” Aldrich repeated Areez’s words in shock. “Hasn’t she been fine all this time, are you sure that Patricia isn’t lying?”

.....

“We both haven’t communicated with Angelica for more than ten years Aldrich, of course we both don’t know about her condition. So it’s not fair if we doubt the information provided by Patricia,” Areez answered coldly with anger.

“Oh come on Areez, we both know what siblings are like. Both girls are a little crazy and…”

“Aldrich, can’t you show a little empathy for Angelica?” Areez snapped in a loud voice. “It’s about the life and death of a human as we know it.”

Aldrich immediately closed his mouth tightly when he read Areez’s great emotions.

“Angelica has indeed made a big mistake, but that doesn’t mean I have to ignore it. She is seriously ill with Aldrich, her life chances are only forty percent. Forty percent Aldrich!!” Areez’s chest rose and fell as he spoke, his emotions really were very unstable.

Aldrich took a deep breath. “Okay, so what’s your plan now? Have you been asked by Patricia to look after her sister?”

“Yes.”

“What!!” for the third time Aldrich screamed loudly, Areez really made his heart unhealthy.

“Patricia asked me to help her look after Angelica, that’s why I doubt I will be able to return to Luxembourg anytime soon or not. You know that Leukemia isn’t a mild disease, right?”

Aldrich shook his head. “And what is your answer to Patricia’s request?”

“I still haven’t given an answer, I’m still thinking, and the longer I think, the greater my guilt for Angelica. I feel like I would be the worst human being if I ignored her condition, which is seriously ill like now,” said Areez honestly.

“Oh Jesus…I’m really lost for words right now. You are really something Areez, I really don’t understand your way of thinking.” Aldrich massaged his forehead which suddenly hurt. “You are willing to give your precious time to a woman who has betrayed you, even though now you have…”

“Aldrich…”

“Don’t interrupt me, let me finish what I said,” snapped Aldrich loudly.

Areez lowered his head. “Sorry.”

“You already have the current Suri Areez, Suri Mireya Clarke, a girl you have fought for for almost six years without getting tired. A girl you have separated from her family for three years, a girl who has made you feel love again only for Angelica Browman the traitor? You’re really out of your mind Areez. You’re really not normal, you’re wasting diamonds for worthless iron filings.” Aldrich continued his words with great emotion. “And if you lose Suri because of Angelica then I will be the one laughing at you the loudest, remember Areez who wants Suri to be his wife must be very much. She is Jackson Clarke’s youngest child, her parents have big names in Europe as well as his older brother there must be lots of people who would be happy to propose to her if you ever let her go.”

Areez clenched his fists tightly, his face turned red when he heard Aldrich’s words that were so provocative. He didn’t seem willing to imagine Suri with another man, but on the other hand he couldn’t just ignore Angelica.

“Everything is on you Areez, you can make the choice. But remember my message, don’t waste the love of a girl who is so sincere to you. A girl who is willing to forgive all your mistakes and open her heart to you, doesn’t let you regret and lose even more. Trust me, there is no girl as sincere as Suri Mireya Clarke in this world,” Aldrich said again, patting Areez’s shoulder slowly before he finally left Areez alone in his office.

Areez immediately lowered his head deeply, Aldrich’s words made him even more confused. Angelica was indeed guilty for betraying him but that didn’t mean he had to ignore her current critical condition, his human side couldn’t refuse to accept Patricia’s request this afternoon. But on the other hand Areez also doesn’t want to lose Suri, Suri is the girl who has made him rise from his slump due to Angelica’s actions. The girl he had made cry for years after he was separated from her family and Areez didn’t have the heart if he hurt her again. It didn’t feel right for him to let Suri go for Angelica.

“Arrghhhh…why does something like this have to happen,” Areez screamed loudly.

Aldrich, who was still standing in front of Areez’s room, only shook his head slowly hearing his best friend’s screams. As someone who has been friends with Areez for a very long time, Aldrich definitely knows Areez’s true nature. Aldrich knew that Areez had such a sincere meekness and this was also what Aldrich hated because Angelica Browman had taken advantage of Areez’s kindness in the past so much that she finally betrayed Areez cruelly.

“No, I will not let that woman take advantage of you again, Areez. I will not remain silent this time, I will make sure that all the rotten plans that Angelica and Patricia have made are uncovered. I will not let the two cunning girls take advantage of your kindness Areez again,” said Aldrich slowly.

Not wanting Areez to fall into Angelica and Patricia’s trap again, Aldrich then took out his cell phone and immediately ordered his men to find as much information as possible about Angelica Browman while abroad and her medical records. Aldrich wasn’t sure if Angelica was really sick.
