Making Her Pay.
“I caught you , trying to stop you from falling to the ground and all you could do to pay me back is dragging me to the ground and making me kiss you? How low could you stoop!” Red whispered to Crystal while he was still on top of her and struggling to get up.
Crystal felt bad though hearing him scold her for making him fall on her but she didn’t know how react at that moment.
A lot of people had surrounded them and it made her nervous. She wasn’t even sure of what to say.
She turned to her left and saw her aunt coming closer to where they were and immediately, she dragged Red closer to her face And had her gaze placed into his eyes .
“He is actually cute.” She admired inwardly while her gaze was placed on him.
“What the hell do you think you are doing? Everyone would talk about this you know!” he said out as he tried standing from her body but she had refused to let him go.
“Please sir” she begged with her looks like that of a puppy. She looked so innocent as she begged him to stay put.
“My aunt would kill me if she finds me here like this” Crystal added.
Red for the first time in a long while felt a weird sensation in his heart as he heard Crystal begging him to stay with her.
She was only trying to use him as a cover so her aunt wouldn’t see her in the company.
He paused for a while and all he could think about as he looked at her was kissing her thick red rosy lips that was in front of him.
“Could you adjust a little, please sir” Crystal suggested and immediately, Red obeyed.
It was kind of weird to Crystal because he was obeying her in what ever she asked for.
“She is out of my way finally!” she mumbled as she immediately pushed Red aside to get up.
“Ouch!!” Red exclaimed.
He was actually lost in his thoughts while he was looking at Crystal. Seeing her so close to him was something he had never imagined happening.
“I am so sorry sir, but I have to go now! I will catch up with you later at the mansion” Crystal stated clearly as she ran out of the crowd that was watching them while they were on the ground.
She immediately exited the company seeing that she had submitted her application form already.
She didn’t want her aunty to get home before her and find out that she wasn’t at home.
“Hey come back here!!” Red yelled out ordering her but it was to no avail .
He was all alone left with his workers surrounding him while he sat on the ground.
“Let me help you up sir” a staff offered him as she walked closer to him.
“Get the fuck off me!” he demanded . He had made her go away not because he didn’t need any help but because he was ashamed of himself.
He struggled to get up to his feet and out of shame, he left the company without seeing his dad or accomplishing his purpose.
He got into his car and zoomed out of the company’s site.
“I would surely make her pay for the humiliation she had caused me for today!!” he held his Car steering tightly as he increased the speed limit of his car.
At the Mansion…..
“I would be dead meat if I walk into aunt Lucy before going into my room” crystal who had gotten back home muttered.
She kept on walking on top of her toe as she tried reaching for the door knob of her room.
She opened the door slowly and as usual, it made a weird sound. The kind that alerts someone when a thief is about to enter a house.
It was so loud that all Crystal prayed for was to dig a grave so she could go into it immediately.
“Crystal??’” aunt Lucy called out authoritatively. She had this deep tone that would make someone die at the sound of it.
Crystal froze hearing her aunt call out her name. It was more like she knew about her where about.
The first thought that came into her head was how her Aunt would treat her once she finds her in front of her door.
“Crystal??!” Lucy called out again and this time, she called on Crystal furiously.
“I …. I am… I am coming aunty” Crystal responded as she stuttered. She was definitely scared and wasn’t sure of what would happen to her if her aunt was to treat her like a little child.
Crystal took in a deep breath and had decided to walk to go see her aunt who had called out her name.
“Aunty” she responded immediately, she walked into Lucy’s room slowly. She kept on looking around the room and that was when it hit her that she was the only one being maltreated.
“Could you do me a favor?” Aunt Lucy asked looking at Crystal who’s Expressions were more like she was missing.
“Ma?” Crystal returned with a nod.
“Stop looking around my room, I hate it when slaves come into my room and look around. You could actually steal something!” Aunt Lucy stared as she mocked Crystal.
“I am sorry … I am sorry if I did something bad ma’am” Crystal begged with her knees going to the ground.
Aunt Lucy wasn’t the kind that listens to pleas. She preferred it when someone worked for her than pleading to her.
“You will have to work for it then” she stated.
“I would do anything to please you ma” Crystal returned without minding the consequences of what she was about to do.
Aunt Lucy had actually seen her in the company but didn’t want to say it out. She just wanted to make her pay.
She had thought that Crystal had traced or monitored her to the company.
Lucy wasn’t aware that Crystal had applied for a job opportunity in the company.
“I want you to leave the house for just a week .” she stated clearly with her legs crossed when she looked at Crystal.
“What??!!” Crystal exclaimed looking surprised.
“A whole fucking week??!!” she added.
“You heard me right crystal!” she insisted as she stood up from her bed to walk out of the room.
“I cant leave the house aunty, I don’t have any friends, I don’t have any parents , besides you made it difficult for me to stay in another person’s home , please aunty! Why now aunty?!” Crystal grabbed her aunt’s legs as she pleaded with her.
She didn’t want to leave the house because she was sure that she had no where else to go to.
She wasn’t with Jack anymore , she barely had good friends and now her aunt wants her out of the Mansion for a week. She thought.
If I let her be here with me, then I won’t be able to carry out my plan as usual. Aunt Lucy thought to herself.
Her legs were held by Crystal which made her not to leave the room as expected.
“Let go off my legs this minute!” She ordered kicking Crystal off her legs like she was actually a true slave.
Crystal was and is still her own blood but seeing tears run through crystal’s eyes were all that mattered to her.
She felt Crystal would definitely stop her from carrying out her dubious plans so she needed to send her away.
“You went to GT ENTERPRISE today Crystal” she lowered her height to Crystal’s level who was on the ground.
“I… I…” Crystal tried saying but was chocked with her sobs.
“I see it was actually useless bringing you up as my child” Lucy placed her hand on Crystal’s jaw and halved a smile looking into her eyes.
“I didn’t mean to aunty, I just didn’t mean to. I just happened to be there exactly the same time you were there” Crystal uttered trying to defend herself and hide the fact that she had applied to be a staff there.
“I see Crystal. But if I may ask” she went closer to Crystal’s ear and whispered. “What were you doing there with the Boss son?” She added.
“Boss son? It’s nothing ma, Its really nothing I swear on my grave aunty!” Crystal opened her eyes widely as she shook her head trying to explain what had happened.
“You must really think I am a fool crystal. I know Red, he is rude, ruthless and doesn’t give a fuck what anyone thinks or says. But you were there with him what does that mean to you. Nothing??!” she stood up as she crossed her hand rolling her eyes.
“I …” Crystal tried saying but Aunt Lucy had stopped her.
“I don’t want to hear a silly word from you anymore. You are just like your mom!” Aunt Lucy cursed.
Hearing her aunt talk about her mom that way made her drop a tear. She couldn’t hold it in anymore.
Crystal felt pain and wished that she could end her sufferings immediately.
She stood up from the ground and cleaned her knee. “Listen up Lucy!”
She spoke out with so much courage.
She was still trying to finish her statement when Aunt Lucy became furious and raised her hand up to hit Crystal.
“Don’t you dare!!” a voice bold enough to control a thousand men came running into her ears from behind.
She stopped with fear and turned to see who it was.
“Don’t you dare!” he ordered again looking furious.
