A FORTUNE IN FURY: THE SECRET TRILLIONAIRE HEIR

Chapter 8

He should have known that for some good things to happen to him today, something bad would have to come too. 

He watched in shock as they kissed deeply, the man's tongue sliding into Sandra's mouth as they went at each other. 

It was only Nana's startled shout of surprise that made them spring apart. 

They separated and then Sandra saw him. He expected to see guilt and shame on her face. He expected her to come rushing over to him, trying to explain. He expected the man to quietly leave, but that didn't turn out like he thought it would. 

Sandra rolled her eyes with a distasteful hiss when she saw him standing there, with his mouth open in shock. 

Adrian's mouth dropped open even wider as he heard the hiss directed at him. 

“Sandra, you're cheating on me?!” The thunderous question escaped his lips. 

“What the fuc—, how can you be cheating on me?!”

Sandra chuckled as if she couldn't believe the question and the man now turned to look at Adrian. Adrian regarded the man with hate and anger while the man stared down his nose at Adrian, as if Adrian shouldn't even be in his presence. 

“What do you think I'm doing, Adrian?” Sandra spat, “don't you have eyes? Want me to explain it gently to you?”

Adrian staggered back a few feet at her words. What was this? No this couldn't be happening to him at all. Not his Sandra. 

“No, I'm not cheating on you, Adrian.” she told him as her lips curled into a sneer.

Adrian was seeing the look on her face as she said it, but still the words gave him some hope. Maybe she wasn't really cheating on him. Maybe she had an explanation.

“What we had was not even a relationship, so how can I possibly be cheating on you?” Sandra said, reaching for the guy's hand and linking their hands together.

Adrian couldn't believe his ears. They hadn't even been in a relationship? “Then, then what the fuck was it, Sandra? If it wasn't us dating and loving each other, what was it?”

“It was a pity!” she screamed out. “I felt bad for the poor little farmer boy that always came here to get groceries and his little farm seeds, whatever, and so I decided to indulge your stupid fantasy to date you.”

Nana gasped even louder than Adrian. Adrian couldn't even believe what he was hearing. He rushed to Sandra and gripped her shoulders as he shook her. “You don't mean that, snap out of it, will you?!”

The other guy shoved Adrian hard on the shoulder and Adrian went falling back, barely managing to catch himself before he fell. 

“Who the fuck do you think you are, touching my girlfriend like that?” The new lover yelled, almost rushing at Adrian. 

One of Sandra's co workers, Laura, came to where they all stood in the aisle and saw what was happening. This girl had no nice bone in her body. She had always taken joy in taunting Adrian whenever he came. Calling him a little piggy boy just because Adrian was interested in keeping a farm.

She laughed as she saw what was unfolding. “I was wondering when you would find out and stop bringing your dirty self into this super market, polluting the environment.”

Adrian couldn't even say anything. Laura had always hated him dating Sandra and had never made it a secret. She believed Sandra was too gorgeous for a poor boy like him to date and that he should leave her alone. She must be so happy right now. 

Adrian had always believed Sandra would never prove her right.

“Piggy boy, can't you see that a real man has become Sandra's real boyfriend? You are nothing compared to Peniel, he's rich and sophisticated. When he comes here, he buys her nice things, but all you ever bring with you for Sandra are woes.” Laura hissed. 

She turned to Sandra and smiled. “I'm so glad you wisened up.”

Sandra smiled back at her. “I was always wide, I was just slumming a little, really. No harm in having a little fun with silly boys like him when you're bored you know?” Sandra giggled.

Her new lover leaned in and pressed a kiss to her neck, and then her ear, before leaning down to kiss her on the lips. Sandra moaned into his mouth.

Adrian's hands balled into fists beside him and he was afraid he would dig his nails deep into his flesh if he didn't stop. 

“If you were at least a millionaire, Sandra would accept you, instead you're just a broke little farmer boy.” Laura laughed out loud, obviously having a lot of fun.

“You can't even secure her a job now that our boss is planning to sell the supermarket, but Peniel has promised to get the new owner to let her stay. See? That is what a real man is good for!”

“I'll show you what a real man is, Sandra. I'll show you.”

Sandra's eyebrows rose. “If you're so pained to hear that, then why don't you go ahead and buy the supermarket?”

Laura went over to where Sandra and the lover Peniel were standing. “I mean, it shouldn't be that hard a bargain for you, piggy boy, this is where you buy all your dirty farm produce.”

Adrian thought about it and he remembered a particular q billion dollars just sitting pretty in his account.

“You know, you're right, Sandra. I might just buy the supermarket myself.”

Everyone was silent for a second, looking at him with wide eyes, and then they all burst into laughter so loud it rang out in all directions of the supermarket and in all the aisles. 

But Adrian was already seriously thinking about it. He would buy it and own the place. It would be a good enough place since he shopped here and needed to come frequently to buy seedlings, gardening equipment and groceries. 

He would also become Sandra's boss. And then, her and her arrogant new boyfriend would be begging him.
