Cheat With My Boyfriend Best Friend

Chapter 402 The Crystal Pendant

It was precisely because I knew that Nick had been keeping something from me out of his concerns for my feelings that even though I had a reasonable guess at this moment, I had no idea how to bring it up to him to verify

But I had to verify

Even if it didn't have a real impact on my body or my baby, I still couldn't put it behind me just like that

Having witnessed David's mind control over Nick gave me a warning. So, the more Nick didn't want me to know that he was in contact with David, the more disturbing it was to me

At Aaron's suggestion, I finally decided to call

Nick

I didn't want to put too much pressure on Nick, so I didn't tell him what my latest medical report showed

Nick was thrilled when he got my call. "Are you all right, Olive? I've been dying to see you! It's just that there has been so much going on in the lab, and I haven't had a chance to do so. Also, I'm afraid the reagents I've been exposed to might be bad for you. You were this close to..."

His voice trailed off as he said so. Aaron was sitting opposite me, and I saw that his eyes were flickering. It seemed that he was about to grab the phone almost in the next second to question Nick, so I quickly gestured for him to calm down

If Nick knew that my hospitalization had

something to do with him, he would definitely be here by now. He was never good at avoiding things, and of course, he could tell right from wrong especially when it came to the matters of his friends

Therefore, now, as everything was still unclear, I could only ask him in a probing tone

"Nick, David seems to have been in Berlin these days. Have you seen him?"

"Of course not!"

Nick, on the other end of the line, responded quickly, so quickly that it sounded a bit deliberate

He was probably aware of his gaffe. After he blurted out, his momentum weakened noticeably. He hesitated for a few seconds

before speaking again

"Olive, David and I broke up for good, and I didn't want to be his mind-controlled puppet anymore. Believe me. I won't be involved with him ever again."

"How is she supposed to believe you?"

Aaron, who had been silent, took the phone, put Nick on speaker under my panicked gaze, and asked in a low, deep voice

"Aaron? What do you mean?" Nick asked, but Aaron soon choked him with his following words

"T haven't known you very long and haven't had a lot of contact with you, Nick, but I can tell that you, like Cinder, think of Olive as your best friend. But sometimes, it's the closeness of your

relationship that provides some pervert with an

open door. Are you sure you want to continue to hide, Nick?"This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Listening to Aaron question Nick, I was a bit nervous for Nick, so I said to him bluntly, "Nick, we are just suspecting that David has taken advantage of your relationship with me

You know that you're the only way for him to get to me now."

I explained the information in the latest report sheet to Nick in detail and apologized to him for Aaron's rudeness. Soon, I heard his sigh of exasperation coming from the other end of the line

"Olive, I'm so sorry. It never came to me that it would be like this... I didn't have any contact with David during the time you came to me, but about two days before that, he returned me a

necklace that I had left in his apartment in Boston."

From Nick's intermittent explanation, I finally pieced together the general truth of the whole thing

Nick chose to leave the Harvard Institute mostly because he wanted to leave everything that had happened there. Unfortunately, one couldn't let go of a relationship simply because one wanted to

Things would have probably been OK if the man who hurt him had just vanished from his world. However, David haunted him and came to Berlin as well. Although David claimed that he wouldn't pester Nick anymore, he still came to see Nick every now and then with the excuse of Nick had left something in Boston, and he was there to bring those things back to Nick

Though Nick said he firmly refused David's attempt to contact him, the last time, David sent him the matching necklace they had exchanged on their first date

I always thought that every relationship was worthy of respect, even if the one we fell for was a scum or a pervert. No matter what, the relationship itself wasn't wrong. Most of the time, it wasn't that we were obsessed with some certain asshole. It was just that we didn't want to denigrate our youth which represented how dedicated we were toward our relationships

Nick probably felt the same way

So, when David brought him the necklace that represented the beginning of their relationship, he did not refuse David's visit. Instead, he politely accepted the necklace that David had brought to Berlin from Boston

It was a necklace with a crystal pendant shaped like a chemical bottle

Nick couldn't bear to throw the necklace away and even wore it around his neck for a few days

That happened to be the few days I stayed at his place

After pondering for a few seconds, I finally decided to tell him my speculation

"Nick, I have reason to suspect that the crystal pendant in the shape of a chemical bottle was tampered with by David. Do you have it now? Try to test the things inside."
