Part 42

Katy Bellamy. Katy Bellamy. I kept repeating it in my head. I had seen it. I didn't know her but I knew her name. Then it hit me. Katy Bellamy's name was on the newspaper. She was the French model who admitted to spending a night with Sam. But why was she calling Harry?

I didn't know if it was correct to just ask him straightforwardly. I didn't want to seem like a controlling person either. But I couldn't find a logical reason for him to be talking to the person with whom Sam cheated on me. Harry walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. "Something wrong, Y/N?" He asked, coming towards me. I shook my head. "I think someone called you." "Why didn't you pick it up and say I only had time for you?" He smiled cheekily. "Because I didn't know her." I replied coldly.

I got up and went outside, sliding the glass door in Harry's room. I walked around, wanting the fresh air to fill my lungs. I considered if what I had done was correct. I got to the conclusion that my reaction was completely normal. But I was having second thoughts again. What if Katy was a friend of his? He knew a lot of models so maybe she just happened to call? "Can you come inside? I think we need to talk?" Harry said at the door, looking at me straight in the eyes.

I followed him inside, not saying a word. I sat on the bed looking up at him, expecting an explanation. "I think this was all a misunderstanding. Y/N, this is pretty serious and you can believe me or not on this one. You just have to trust in me. But I guess that if you prefer not to, I'll understand." He sighed. "Just come off it, Harry."

"Katy is a good friend of mine. She told me she was going to tell everybody that he cheated on you. Not because she want to hurt you-" "Wait, you knew he had cheated on me?" "No, she told me she was going to say something disappointing about him, but not exactly that he had cheated." "How am I supposed to be so sure?" "Please babe, listen to the whole story first." I nodded for him to continue.

"So she came clean and told the press. The next day, she was on the front page. And she called me a while ago because Sam talked to her, offering a big amount of money for her to take it back. She just called me for advice. I told her to take it. I know it's not the right thing, but I'm pretty sure Sam would do something bad to her if she didn't accept it. She shouldn't risk her career for that. Everybody knows he's a cheater by now so I think she got her vengeance, if that's what she wanted." I stayed silent. It was a hard story to make up and he never intended to hurt me. But Sam was deceiving me more and more. Bribing was his way to get out of things? I couldn't believe it. I looked at Harry again to find his concerned face looking right back at me. "I believe you, Harry." I breathed out. His face softened as he smiled and lifted me up.
