Chapter 39: Simone's wrath
SIMONE'S P.O.V
I drop by because coach Fallon wants to talk to me. I decided to check him here but I saw them making out underneath the water. "Simone, I heard you're... here?" Edzen saw how furious I am. I take off my coat and jump off the water. I swam towards them and grab Vivian's hair.
"Let go of me! Fuck. I said let go of me bitch!" She was about to grab my hair too when he hold her hand. "What are you doing senior?!" His face darkens. "You think I will let you hurt my wife? If you're here to be a slut then flirt with someone else. I have been trying to be nice but you've done enough. You're the real bitch here."
I smirk and look at her. I grab her cheek and punch her in the stomach. She cough. "I tried to let go of what you did in our college days but not today, Vivian. I will let you see how bitch I am." I slap her. "You! Let me go, Russell! This is bullying! I will report this! I will file a case against all of you!"
I signed him to release his grip and I look at her. "Bring it on but I promise you that you will never win. I will report to you also. Let's see who will kiss the jail. I already have enough, this is my last warning Vivian. Don't you dare!"
She turns pale. I look at him. "And you! We need to talk." He nod and he followed me. Edzen offers his hand but I went off myself. "I already told you my decision Edzen. Please, accept it. Russell!" I yelled. He held my hand.
"Yes ma'am. I am here." We left those two who are trying to drive us apart. In his locker room, I close the door and cornered him. I gave him a death glare. "Why did you let your guard down? That woman is literally trying to arouse you. What if she succeeds? What if she'll get pregnant? What if—uhmp!" He stops me from talking.
I moaned when his hand get inside my clothes. "As if I will let her. I know how hard it can be if I'll have an illegitimate child. I don't want my son to feel what Jackson experienced. Good thing that you love him or else he might feel outcast in your mansion." I pouted. "Good thing, you knew that."
"Hey, are you still mad, hmm?" I pointed my finger at him and scold him. "Don't be swayed by her. I know she's sexy. She smells nice. She has big boobs and a butt. I know you will be tempted as time goes by and that will break my heart. I already knew what it feels because I almost cheated on you. I am afraid that you'll be like me and worst... Russell, tell me. Did she always do this?" I tried to hide what I truly feel. I am afraid he will fall in love with her.
"Yes. Every time she gets a chance. She kisses me, touches my d**k and sometimes she shows her bosom to me." I turn around and close my eyes. "Then she is serious about seducing you. She's doing it again." I remember how she showed a sex video of hers with Rico. That's the reason why I tried to forget my feelings for him. I was disappointed.
"Hey, I knew you were afraid and worried. I have been trying my best not to get swayed and distance myself. Please trust me always. If I broke my promise, I will forever repent and beg for forgiveness. Please, Simone?" He hugs me from my back. I close my eyes. "I know. I trust you always. I just feel like Vivian targets my life again. She already did this to me in our college days. What if it will happen again?"
"I don't know what will happen in the future. But if I commit such sin in our marriage, can you promise me to stay? Like how your mom did for daddy Alberto? I know it is stupid to ask this but can you?" I turn around and look at him. 'I love him. I can"t lose him too. If that day comes, I will...'
I nod. He kiss me and smiled. "I love you, Simone."
RUSSELL'S P.O.V
A knock on my door stops me from reading this paper works. "Come in." The door opens and the investigator that I hired came in. I smiled and signed him to take a seat. "Good morning, Mr. Maxwell, looking good as always. "Of course. My wife is making me happy every day." He chuckled. "You better enjoy that. When do kids come in? You barely have a sweet moment with your wife alone."
"I will. So, how is it?" He places a folder in front of me. I opened it and starts to flip the pages. I saw a photo of my dad and who is this girl? "Her name is Amanda Westley, she's Vivian's aunt. You're dad's stalker. They're not in a relationship in all but she claimed that they were."
"Stalker?" He nods. "You knew that your dad is a famous businessman right? In his bachelor years, she meets her in a bar must have been 28 years ago. In a forum, she began to stalk your dad. She had tried to ruin your dad's dates several times." I look at the next page. "She's admitted to insanity hospital since 18 years go? That long? For what reason?" He sigh. "Well you're still young at that time and your parents must not have told you this but..."
He paused when my dad's secretary gets in and serve us some snacks. "Here's some sandwich, Sir and mister. " He smiled. "Thank you." She smiled and left. "But what?"
He sips first and looks at me. Did she try to use your mother's name for fraud and worst? She infiltrate your dad's hotel room when he went abroad for business purposes." My jaw drops. "But what is my connection here? Even Vivian?"
"I went to that hospital and visits the victim. She still claims that your dad left her in the air. Like some kind of a mistress and blame him for the death of her baby." I look at him upon hearing the word baby. "Dad made her pregnant?"
"Relax, he wasn't. It's just a delusion of hers. When she is 12, she was already diagnosed with a mental disorder. It's OCD and that"s the reason why she wants your dad too much. It's like a candy that she wants to taste but someone bought it. She is trying to harm your mom as well." I sigh. "Thank goodness, I thought dad did such a horrible decision."
"You have to be careful. Vivian might have the same case as her aunt. If she is trying to seduce you? It can be her way to revenge on her aunt"s case. She must have believed her lies." I sip my coffee and look at the pictures. "If that's her plan? I bet this is not just an act of simple revenge for my family."
"What did you mean by that?" I put down the papers. "My wife had been popular in their college days. She always beat Vivian in every aspect and if she has a mental disorder? I bet it's one of her reasons. Anyway, I want you to investigate further and tell me the things that she can be capable of. I have to make sure I'm ten steps ahead of her."
"No problem. Leave it to me. Just be careful, this one might be a madman." I nod and ate my sandwich. 'If you approach me Vivian for your nonsense plans then I have to be careful. I won't let you ruin my life and even Simone.' After he ate his sandwich, he stood and bid farewell. "I have to go then. I'll update you as soon as I have some good news but technically bad."
"Thank you, I will transfer your money within the day. You don't have to investigate every day, take your time." He smiled. "Don't worry about me." He left afterward. I grab the papers and pictures. I put them back. I have to talk to my parents. I want to know more about Amanda.
"Why are you asking about her?" Both of them were surprised when I ask about her. "She's my junior's aunt. That girl is trying to seduce me recently. I feel like she didn't approach me for no reason." They sigh and speak.
Simone's POV
I saw her waiting for me on that pillar in the lobby. I went to her and just stood facing the glass wall. "What do you want, slut?" She giggled. "Threatened? You must be shaking because you knew that I'll succeed." I scoff.
"Don't get cocky. You should know what I'm capable of Vivian. Don't you think I didn"t know anything? Don't try me." She faced me and she give me an envelope. "Did you know that your husband's family were criminals?"
Her face turns pale when she saw how I told the envelope that she gave. I walk forward and she did backward. "What the fuck—" I grab her hand and held it tightly. "Let me go. You're still a gangster as always! Let me—!" I gave her a death glare. "Don't you dare! You're not someone who has her cards too. This is my last warning, Vivian. I can turn your world into ashes." I grab her phone and smirk.
"Recording, huh?" I even grab her sunglasses, her necklace, her pen, and purse. I broke each of them. I even rip her purse and she just screamed in madness. No one will help her because this is my territory. "Dare me."
I called the janitor. "Clean everything and put these off the machine. Make sure she won't retrieve anything." He nods and move faster. She is about to follow him when I grab her shoulder. I opened my palm. She saw the SD cards. I smirk. "You thought I'll be dumb enough, huh? Oh, sweetheart, I am not. Too bad for you... guard!" They run towards me.
"Send her out and banned her in this building from now on." They grab her shoulder. "Yes ma'am!" I smiled sweetly and wave at her as I walk away. When I sat down on my chair as soon as I came back, I opened my drawer. "You really thought I won't suspect you at all? You just know my gangster side, Vivian." I mumbled and look at the picture.
When I get home, I saw his distressed expression. I grab him and made him lay down on my lap. I massage his forehead. "Is there a problem in Solace?" He shook his head. "Nothing, it's not about the company. Don't worry about me, okay? I can handle this matter." I just nod and when he closes her eyes, I know he is enjoying it. "Let's go to bed and make some babies?" My eyebrow arches and I laugh.
"Stop being cheesy. But not a bad idea actually." He laughs. "You said it yourself." He stood up and carried me. When we lay down on the bed I knew that he won't stop until he wants to. "I love you, Simone." I smiled. "Me too."
When I woke up, I saw setting the table on the balcony. I rose up to the bed and grab my nightgown from the floor. I brush my teeth and hug him from his back. "Good morning." He faced me and kiss me. "I love you." I gave him a confused look. He laughs. "Good morning too, Simone. Come on, let's eat breakfast together." I nod and he pulled the seat for me. "Uhm! It's delicious! Did you cook these?" He nodded. "Yes. Take it easy, okay?" I nod and take another bite.
When I visit the taping area, I notice the sudden closeness of Haven and Steven. "I can smell roses in your main characters." Dana chuckled. "I also feel the same way actually. Anyway, thank you for vouching for me and Jackson."
"No problem. You guys deserve to be happy. Don't you want to spill the beans, hmm?" She chuckled. "Well, let's talk about that in my tent." She told me about their sweet date and I saw how her eyes glistened which made me happy. After I watch them for 10 minutes, I talk to them and left the set afterward.
"Wait, Simone!" I walk away and tried to avoid Edzen. But he catches me and grabs my wrist. "Let me go! What do you want?!" Someone grab his hand. It's Luris! What the fuck!
