Chapter 53

"You are such a fool, Simon, if only you had told her exactly how you feel, all she's wouldn't have happened," he criticized himself with a wave of uncontrollable anger. Driving through the city to meet her where he had left her, Simons speed could crush anyone that was on the road.
"Get out of the way," he spoke out while horning louder as a medium of alerting any car that was on the road. His heart was swollen and he was filled with so many regrets and hoping that she was not in some kind of danger, he wished to tell her the whole truth, the moment he sets eyes on her.
Reaching the area where he had caught a glimpse of her go on during the day, Simon veered around his automobile and parked abruptly, while unlocking his car door and getting out, he rushed across the road to the boutique as he noticed that they were closing for the night.
Breathing heavily as he approached the salesgirl, he asked whether a young girl had come over there during the day but the lady looking all confused, asked who exactly he was referring to and he explained how Georgia looked like and took out his phone to show a picture of her.
"Oh Ms. Georgia, she left earlier ago, and from the look of things she was not happy and her eyes were swollen from crying too much. She always comes here to see her aunt and she is the owner of this shop," the Lady narrated.
Simon was so lost not knowing where to find Georgia and appreciating the information that the salesgirl had given to him, he walked away from her asking where she could be at such an hour of the night, knowing how risky it was to roam out there alone.
He walked back to his car and took out his phone again with the expectation that she will answer her phone calls this time around, he dialed her number as he waited for her to pick up.
Waiting for a while, the line finally connected and Simon, feeling so happy, jumped on his car seat as he asked Georgia where she was but the noise was so much that he could not listen to anything that she was saying.
Insisting to know where she is, the line got cut and the frustration that had cropped upon his face was something that could not be ignored. Simon, called out her number multiple times but she was no longer picking and with his heart beating hard in his chest, he felt a cold sweat go down his back.
"Where are you now Georgia, please don't do anything stupid," he pleaded. Thinking of the GPS tracker that was on his phone and with which he could track the location of any person just by putting their names or contacts, he clicked on it and while waiting for her location to pop up, Simon was glad to see where Georgia was and that was where he was heading to because it was time for her to know the truth about how he feels for her.
Reaching the location, he found out that it was a pub and feeling scared of what might be happening inside, he wanted to have her protected as that was something he was wishing to do all this while. Stationing his car, Simon came down and walked into the tavern and as he entered, his gaze was as sharp as the eagle's eye as he screened everywhere looking for Georgia.
The organization on his phone was indicating that Georgia was at that spot but he could not seem to find her anywhere and the lights too inside the pub were not hat bright giving it a perfect area to do all sorts of things.
Georgia wastage one who was entertaining a group of men as she had drunk herself out just because she wished to shirk her sorrow and not giving a damn about what others could say, she climbed in the table and danced like never before.
Catching sight of her, Simon was shocked by what he was seeing. Walking faster to get to the table where she was standing, he grabbed her by the hand and brought her from the table.
"Hey man, what do you think you are doing?" a man screamed out but Simon not being able to hold back his anger he punched the man on his face and broke his nose. Georgia had no idea of what was going on as she was very drunk.
To say that she could even say her name was a lie but she still fought back to take her hands off her. The others had gotten up to fight Simon but only his countenance sent them away without even a word.
"Let's go," he spoke out veering around and looking at Georgia but she was as stubborn as a wall and that was an aspect that Simon could not take from her. Carrying her on his shoulder, she fought back with all of her strength but it was useless as Simon was stronger than her.
Walking out of the bar, his sole aim was to bring her home with him but them, he remembered that her mother could be worried about her welfare so he only saw it necessary to call her before any other thing. Simon was already at his car so unlocking it, he put her inside but Georgia screamed out,
"I don't want to go with you, so take me back if not I am going to fight you."
Her words were very funny to him as they sounded like that of an angry child. Her eyes were filled with so much rage and she could even hit him but it was unfortunate that she could not do anything to him.
"You are going back home with me, whether you like it or not," he yelled out at her. For a moment, Georgia thought that we were going to be crushed by Simon so she closed her eyes and by the time that she opened it, the car was already moving.
Her grip was tightened on her dress and with all the drinks that she had taken, her soul and body fought as one wanted to get control over the offer but it was rather unfortunate that her drunken state was taking over the normal one.
Simon could tell from her behavior that she was so scared of him and that was not what he wanted god her but it had happened and she had to accept it like that.
Dropping the glass on the table and his eyes looking at his brother portrait that as hung on the wall of his office, Max breath in and out a hot air of anger as he walked closer to the paintings on the dam, he remembered the hurt that his daughter had cost him all these years and not being able to take it, he pulled down all of them but he was still not satisfied
His anger was so huge that he could contain himself anymore, so he began to scatter everything on his table as well as the books that were on the shelves.
"Who do you think you are that even till death you are still making life miserable for me through your daughter," he yelled out like a mad man. The sound from the broken glass had a wake up the maid who was asleep in her room, following the sound and where it was coming from, she detected that it was from Max's office.
Wondering what could be going on with him, she walked out into the corridors to get-go his office in order to know what was coming to pass in his office.
"Maybe it is a thief," she muttered with fear and it was strange that there was no guard inside the house and no one had come out from any corner of the house except for the noise that was heard from his office.
Walking closer to the office, she was breathing slowly as though her breath was going to be heard by the person who was inside the office was going to feel the sound of her breath. Reach in in front of the door, she could see that there were no lights inside but sidelines presence could be felt inside as she could see shadows.
Taking a deep breath, she opened the door with a force, and taking the stake that she was holding in her hands, she put on the lights and the shock on her face let her into a state of embarrassment.
"Mr. Max!" she called out in dismay and noticing that she was still holding up the stick, she pulled it down immediately as she hid it behind her posterior.
"What are you doing here at this time of the night?" he raised a question surprised to catch a glimpse of her with a bat in her hands and she narrated what she had heard from her room and that was the reason why she had come to check up on what was going on in his office.
Mad was surprised at her courage but it was good to him as he was not expecting her to be so brave to want to attack a thief at that time of the night all by herself. She had proven her loyalty in a big way and she was the kind of person that he was looking for.
Letting out a smile on his face, he already had his plans in his head which were to take advantage of her vulnerability and loyalty for her job.
"Get down from the car," Simon spoke out to Georgia who was proving stubborn and did not want to go out. She was still drunk and remaining in the car, Simon was forced to carry her out of there.
"Let me go, don't touch me," she yelled out hitting him on the chest but Simon felt nothing from her tiny hands.
Taking him into the house, he made sure that she remained calm with nothing to disturb her. Simon had no maid as the last one had gotten pregnant and left while he was still looking for another maid to come work for him.
His family house had become torn in his flesh because his mother did not want to understand that he was already a grown-up and could decide on what to do with his life and don't whenever and however he wanted it to be.
He is break up with Becky, was not accepted by her, and doing everything that she could to make them both come back together, got him very pissed at the situation that he wanted to leave from there, and finding his apartment, was the best thing that gave birth to a great change in his life.
He had called her mother to tell her that Georgia was with him and that she had nothing to worry about as he was going to take care of her. Her mom thanked him for his undertakings towards her daughter and apologized for her bad behavior, Yvonne told him to take care of her and himself as well.
Taking her up to his living room, he put her down and went back to close his door.
"Let me go, I was having fun so why did you have to come and take me out of there?" she screamed out like a mad dog that wanted to be released from her face but Simon not giving a damn about what she was saying, told her to calm down else he was going to be forced to use the hard way.
Shocked by what he had just said, Georgia asked him whether he was okay, and wondering why he had used such a term on her, she told him to let her go.
