The Scheming Couple.

Today was Matt's birthday and Cara was super excited to celebrate his birthday with him. It had been seven years and a few months since they were together and she was happy with him.

After all, he was rich and handsome and was way better than her loser husband who had gone to prison for being a rapist.

She would never have guessed he would be released so soon and on this day of all days.

She stood beside Matt by the door with her mother standing outside, she glared hard at Liam and she realized how much she now hated and despised his whole existence.

Why did he have to show up? He should have just rotted there in prison and never be released again.

"I don't want you anymore Liam, just leave and never show yourself to me ever again," Cara said and Liam noticed how she never stuttered, she looked determined as if she had always hated him from the beginning.

"You heard what she said, get lost." A provocative smile crawled on Matt's lips as he stared without blinking at Liam.

Liam was a nobody, a complete loser and Cara was his for life. She belonged to him and a criminal like Liam could never compete with him because clearly he already won.

Cara felt mad that Liam wouldn't oblige and just stood there like a statue and just staring at her. She noticed how dishevelled and unkept he looked.

The bristles on his face made him look ugly and homeless, his dark brown hair looked like they were currently accommodating lice and other dirty insects. His clothes and shoes were a whole different story. She was sure hours would pass if she kept on pointing at his ugly features.

His white skin had now tanned and looked brown and dirty.

"I've told you already, leave. You wouldn't be happy if my son and husband would come home and meet you here harassing my daughter." Susan stated with a harsh frown.

Liam who had been quiet all this time finally spoke up.

"Six years, I have waited six years to finally get to be with you and I'm really surprised that this is how you treat me. I really loved you even though I had to sacrifice six years of my time and even though I was innocent of the accusations, this is what I get. A cheating and an unfaithful wife."

His voice broke as he spoke and his eyes were red and pooled up with tears but he held it back and refused to shed a single tear over an ungrateful human being.

Cara wouldn't lie if she said this was the first time she was seeing Liam this emotional, even when he was arrested and sentenced to prison, he showed a tough front. However...

"Nothing you do will make me accept you or return to you. I don't want you, I also don't love you just get out of my life." She said with a pointed look.

Matt who had heard enough snaked his hands around Cara's waist and pulled her close to him, purposely provoking Liam.

Liam clenched his hands together into a fist on seeing what Matt was doing to his wife but said nothing.

"You don't want me to get physical with you man, so just leave," Matt said.

Liam stood there quietly without attempting to leave, he stared right into Cara's eyes but she didn't meet his as if too disgusted to look at him and after about two minutes, he turned around and left without saying a word.

"He even has the audacity to show up empty-handed, was he expecting me to feed and accommodate a criminal like him, he should keep dreaming," Susan said and they all stepped inside.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry you had to face him," Susan said with her hands caressing Cara's cheeks.

"It's alright Mom, it was for the better. Can you excuse Matt and I? I need to speak with him privately in the bedroom." Cara said and Susan nodded.

She walked up to Matt and held him by the hand she pulled him to her bedroom and shut the door.

"Oh god Matt, I told you framing him for rape wouldn't be enough to keep him in prison forever." She said in a low voice and Matt frowned.

"What should I have done? That was the only thing I could think of at the time." He replied with his hands tugged into his pocket.

"But I had suggested you frame him with murder, that would have been enough to keep in in jail forever." She pressed her hands on her forehead and sat on her bed.

"Murder would have been too much, we would have been caught. You don't have to worry, he is gone now and you can have me to yourself." He said and sat beside her on her bed. His hands caressed her exposed thighs.

"But you are rich, you should have handled it with your money and connections." Her frown not leaving her face as she looked at him.

"But it's fine now. And I will get even more wealthy with your help, just keep working and don't stop supporting me with your money, together we will become rich and nothing will stop us." Matt said with a loving smile that soon vanished when he placed her head on his chest in a loving manner. One couldn't tell what was in his mind.

However, the door soon swung open disturbing their couple moment as Susan stood outside the door with a dreadful look. She stepped inside and her hand covered her mouth from shock.

"What's wrong?" Cara asked seeing the look on her mother's face. She stood up from the bed and walked towards her mother and tried to touch her but Susan shifted away.

"What? Why are you like that?" Cara asked, feeling worried and started to panic a little as her mother wouldn't say a word and just stood there with her hands covering her mouth as if in shock.

"You, what did I just hear? You were the reason he went to prison? You framed him and made him go to prison? The both of you..."
