Unpredictable Betrayal : A Sweet of Revenge

Chapter 5



Before, when Rayyen suddenly gave her some surveillance cameras, Aurora was confused. She immediately asked and continued to discuss with Rayyen, seeking her younger cousin’s opinion on the right way to trap Alex into her scheme.

Truly, Aurora was not skilled at matters like this. She was nervous and worried that her plan might fail, yielding no results at all.

“For things like this, you should discuss it with Asher. He’s quite adept at setting traps for enemies or solving problems without exerting too much effort.”

Aurora actually thought the same. In family matters or anything related to work issues, Asher always stepped forward to resolve them. He always successfully handled problems until they were resolved satisfactorily.

“The problem is, from the beginning, I ignored Asher’s warnings, Ray. Just so you know, he was the only one who didn’t approve of me marrying Alex.”

Rayyen burst into laughter. He completely understood Aurora’s current position. If he were Asher, he would do the same. Warned but not listened to. When it actually happened, regret would follow, which was practically useless.

“I could call this karma, but you’re older than Asher. Well, just accept your fate.”

“If I talk about or share this problem, Asher would probably immediately kill Alex for blatantly betraying me.”

“Why not just let it be?” Rayyen asked then. “After all, traitors need to be taught a lesson, right?”

“True,” Aurora nodded in agreement. “But not by beating them to a pulp. I want to handle it in a much more elegant way to teach those who have betrayed me.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Rayyen tried to understand. After all, everyone has their own way of solving their problems.

“So, what do you want to do?”

Aurora remained silent again. Not because she couldn’t answer, just thinking for a moment. Convincing herself of the right way to trap Alex and Nicole so that their affair could be exposed without any room for denial.

“What do you think if I catch them both on a date at a hotel this weekend?”

“Meaning, you want to tail Alex and Nicole when they go to the hotel?”

Aurora nodded. She believed it was the only way to catch her husband red-handed if he had been cheating with another woman behind her back.

“I’ll try to find out which hotel they plan to use to meet. Then, I’ll tail them. And once at the location, I’ll just bust them both.”

Rayyen laughed hearing Aurora’s explanation. As someone unfamiliar with such matters, she simply understood the plan laid out by her cousin.

“Here’s the thing. I’ll teach you a more sensible way that, in my opinion, is more effective for you to execute.”

“What do you have in mind, Ray?”

Rayyen then changed her sitting position, moved closer to Aurora, and began to explain in as much detail as possible. Hoping that what she said would open up her cousin’s mind.

“Just now, I gave you three mini cameras to monitor Alex’s movements. You can install these cameras in places where he’s likely to interact with Nicole. For example, in the office, at work, or even in your own bedroom.”

“Wait, Ray!” Aurora interrupted. There was one thing that immediately made her ask a question. “Put surveillance cameras in the bedroom? You mean the room that Alex and I have been using all this time?”

Rayyen nodded. “Earlier, you told me that Nicole invited Alex this weekend to meet at a hotel for a date and to celebrate Nicole’s birthday, right?”

“Yes, I heard it myself.”

“Okay,” Rayyen replied again. “In my opinion, instead of you going through the trouble of tailing them both and getting tired, and besides, catching people in a hotel requires a lengthy procedure, why don’t you lure Alex by giving the impression that it’s safer for him to have an affair at your home than meeting Nicole outside?”

For the umpteenth time, Aurora fell silent. Trying to think quickly, then not long after, she nodded in understanding. She was naturally intelligent; she understood what Rayyen had just explained to her. Why didn’t she think of that before?

“Oh my, I get it. I’ll create a scenario as if I won’t be at home for a few days starting tomorrow. Also, I’ll have the assistants at home engage in activities outside. So, Alex will think that the house is safe and controlled for him to bring Nicole on a date. Is that what you mean?”

Rayyen snapped her fingers in the air. Happy that Aurora could grasp what she meant. This way, the discussion flowed smoothly.

“If Alex engages in an affair at home, you can catch him more easily. The problem later would be whether you can handle seeing it or not.”

Aurora took several deep breaths. Asking herself as well whether her heart was ready to see Alex betraying her right in front of her eyes again.

“Ready or not, Ray.”

“So, if he’s caught, what do you want to do?”

“As I said before, I’ll give him a lesson and a chance. I know you might think I’m foolish and naive. But, once again, I won’t let a marriage that I’ve worked so hard to build crumble like that.”

“The decision is in your hands.”

“But, Ray. If this plan doesn’t work, what should I do? I mean, if it turns out that when I’m gone, Alex still doesn’t bring Nicole home, what should I do?”

“Calm down. Pray that this plan works. If it fails, we’ll implement the backup plan. The important thing now is to have confidence.”
