BXBX NOVEL Chapter 200 - Eaten By Jealousy
"Mr. Oscar, calm down... I just came here to see Lisa\'s condition," Rangga replied with a confused look. The man averted his gaze from Oscar. He then pulled the chair beside the bed and touched Lisa\'s shoulder gently.
"How about your eyes, Lis? Can you see yet?" Rangga asked, leaning forward.
Rangga was so close to Lisa right now, so of course Oscar felt like he was being stabbed by hundreds of daggers. In a matter of seconds, Oscar\'s face, which had been flat without any expression, turned grim. His two eyes flashed with a burning fire of jealousy.
Oscar wanted to grab the thin man and throw him out of the room so badly. But he didn\'t want to cause a scene in the hospital like when Lisa was first referred to the ER. He\'d had enough, he didn\'t want to disturb the rest of the hospital.
While enduring his jealousy, Oscar stepped back and leaned against the wall near the entrance. Every now and then, the blonde haired man glanced at the window in the door. He didn\'t want his eyes to be tarnished by the unpleasant sight in the room.
"I still can\'t see clearly, but it\'s not as dark as before," Lisa said, staring at Rangga\'s blurry figure.
"You don\'t have to worry, Lis. I believe the doctor said that you will definitely recover, and that you\'re just temporarily blind. So, don\'t panic too much," Rangga said trying to comfort Lisa\'s seemingly anxious mind.
"Yeah, I already know that! You don\'t have to repeat it, t I\'m tired of hearing it anyway. In fact, it just makes me panic even more!" Lisa exclaimed, pushing Rangga gently.
The more Oscar saw Rangga and Lisa talking like they were so close, the more jealousy flared up in his heart. He could not understand what was on Lisa\'s mind that she liked Rangga more than him.
Oscar realized that he was very well established and capable of everything, especially in bed. It couldn\'t be denied that all women he had ever slept with were always satisfied with him. He also realized that he was much richer than Rangga, but why did Lisa still not give him a second chance to mend their relationship?
Oscar clenched his palms inside his trouser pockets. His gaze was getting more and more fierce. His lips curled up and his brows were knitted together. He looked at Rangga as id he was a Fox who stole his prey from him.
"Mr. Rangga, I think you should go now. Lisa needs a lot of rest today so her vision can recover fast," Oscar\'s voice sounded so flat and intimidating that it made the aura around him look grim.
"I\'m sorry, Mr. Oscar, but I just want to meet Lisa for a while. Think of my meeting with Lisa like an old friend\'s reunion!" Rangga replied casually, tugging his lips.
Oscar\'s face was bright red, even redder than before. The glint in his eyes radiated dislike and jealousy towards Rangga. He then approached Rangga with slow steps and raised his head arrogantly. His pair of clear blue eyes that were like summer sky stared at Rangga as if the man was a low-life.
Lisa could not clearly see what was happening to the two men, but she could feel the tension and cold aura enveloping them. Her heart started pounding as she felt nervous and a little scared.
"Mr. Rangga, I ask you to come out right now!" Oscar said in a deep, terrifying voice. The glint in his eyes looked scary.
"With all my respect, Mr. Oscar, I just want to make up for my mistake for failing to protect Lisa at work. So I\'m sorry, give me a few minutes to talk to her," Rangga replied politely.
"Oscar, please! Let me talk to Rangga for just a moment!" Lisa added, getting annoyed.
"Don\'t interfere in this, Lisa! You should take your rest now, and not chat with an irresponsible guy like him!" Oscar pointed at Rangga\'s face with a fierce gaze.
"Mr. Oscar, I promise Lisa to solve her problem with Karina. My company can also look really bad in public eyes if I let that irresponsible woman sneak in and mess around in my office!" Rangga replied, this time his voice was a little higher than usual.
"You don\'t have to do that! I promised Lisa to find Karina and drag her to court. You don\'t have to interfere. You have failed. Just get out of here or I\'ll call security!" Oscar replied angrily.
Rangga was silent for a moment after hearing the man of European descent trying to drive him away. He took a deep breath and then glanced at Oscar with a lazy face.
Rangga then got up from his chair and looked at Lisa who looked confused on the bed. "Lis, sorry, I can\'t take long. I don\'t want to lose my head because of this foreigner!" Rangga pointed at Oscar with a fierce gaze.
The golden haired man managed to make Rangga\'s patience run out. If they weren\'t in a hospital, Rangga would have beaten him just like when Oscar met him in front of Lisa\'s boarding house.
"Get well soon, okay? Just eat the cake and see you!" Rangga waved his hand at Lisa and then passed Oscar without looking at his face.
"Rangga— ouch…!" Lisa took a deep breath when she heard the sound of the door closing. "It\'s all your fault, Oscar!" Lisa snapped irritably.
The woman fixed her gaze at Oscar\'s tall shadow with knitted brows. It hurt her heart to see her ex-husband kicking out her close friend. She couldn\'t accept it. She felt her heart was torn apart.
"What are you doing all this for, Oscar!? Aren\'t you satisfied torturing me with a cold attitude then treating me like a pampered princess then hurting me again!?" Lisa was really angry. Her voice was trembling, holding back the anger and sadness building up inside her heart.
The room became silent for a while before Lisa finally heard the sound of Oscar\'s steady stamping walking towards her bed. The man then grabbed the parcel given by Rangga.
He threw away the cake from Rangga into the trash can. The voice echoed through the entire room, making Lisa gasp.
"Oscar! What did you throw away just now !?" Lisa frowned, shocked at the loud voice from the trash can.
"Nothing, just putting garbage in its place!" Oscar replied briefly.
Hearing that sentence, Lisa\'s eyes immediately burst into tears. Rangga had done everything he could to apologize to her for failing to protect her at the office. She understood that the accident that caused her to temporarily lose her vision was not one hundred percent Rangga\'s fault.
Lisa felt so hurt when Oscar threw away the cake that Rangga gave her just because he got jealous.
"Stop, Oscar! Rangga has been nice to me!"
"You have a problem with if I don\'t like that lowly man to randomly walk in and wake you up? Just for the sake of a cheap cake!?" Oscar\'s voice boomed, making Lisa shudder.
"Of course! Rangga didn\'t do anything wrong! Besides, that cake was given to me, not you!" Lisa shouted loudly.
The anger in Lisa\'s heart grew unbearable. If only she could see now, she might have bashed Oscar with her shoe. However, Lisa could only argue with her ex-husband since she wasn\'t fully recovered yet.
"How many times have I told you? Don\'t talk to Rangga again!"
"What\'s your business? Who are you to control my life!? Rangga has been a close friend of mine since childhood! The two of us have been together from elementary to high school. We don\'t have any romantic relationship, we are just close friends as close as a vein!"
"You think you can lie to me? I know you both love each other!" Oscar snarled in a fierce tone.
"Yes! We love each other as good friends!" Lisa replied steadily and confidently.
Hearing Lisa\'s last sentence, Oscar immediately fell silent. Then, with a sudden movement, he walked over to Lisa and climbed on top of her with a body that was much bigger than Lisa.
Lisa was so shocked. The man crushed her in the hospital!
"Oscar, stop! This is a hospital!" Lisa writhed, trying to get away. "You bastard!"
