Chapter 41: Girl's wrath
Simone's POV
When I opened the door, I saw it. She slaps her three times. She must vent out all the anger she had after Hazel bullies her. I close the door. "Did you see that? Is this the actor that you wanted to act?! You're wasting your money on—"
I grab her neck and gave her a death glare. "You think bullying someone will be a sign of your authority and power? You gotta be kidding me," I said firm tone. She gulps. I push her and she steps back. "This is bullying!" I smirk.
"Evidence? Yours? I have evidence and you will never see the limelight of cameras again. You better fund another job or else? You'll die in hunger, missy." She turned paled.
"Dana! Drag this bitch here or else I'll throw her on that window. Terminate her contract and make sure she will pay for everything," I said. She sighed and nodded. "C'mon bitch, let's go," she drag her out and I didn't listen to her screams.
"I'm sorry for losing myself, ma'am Simone." I laugh and pat her on her head. "It's okay, you have the right to vent off after she always tries to harm you. I don't tolerate such an attitude and I hope you won't be like her. Value your success in the people around you. From the smallest one to none, okay?" She nods and smiles sweetly. "Haven!" he said and opens the door. I chuckled. "You really like her, huh?" He blushes which is cute. "No! He is just kind and helps me out with everything. He won't like such a klutz and third-rate actress like me," Haven said in panic mode. I chuckled.
"Fix that problem on your own, kids. But I am happy to see that you are doing great for the mere fact that you acting like this, Haven. I'm glad actually," I said and smile. "Thank you for visiting me, chairwoman. I'll do my best from now on." I nod and pet her. "Don't push yourself too hard. Just enjoy every little thing and smile more, okay? That will make you successful, Haven." She nodded and smiled. "Uhm!"
"Steven, I need to talk to you. Haven, I'll drag him out for a moment, that's okay, right?" She simply nods. He followed me as soon as I walk out of the room. "What is it, chairwoman Maxwell?" I laugh. "I never thought a charismatic and confident man like you will shut his mouth in front of the woman she likes." He blushes again. I am enjoying this scene. "Steven, you saw it right? How genuine she is. Continue to take care of her and guard her well. I mean literally. Do you want other men to court her?"
He blink and instantly shook his head. "No," he disagreed. That made me laugh. "That's it. Then you have to show your feelings. I gotta go, I already paid her bills. I'll see you again next time. Tell her to get well soon," I said and walk away. "Another couple, huh? Uhm! Before I forgot, this weekend is the opening ceremony of the summer Olympics, right?! Ahh! I better go home now!" I run towards the elevator and went home. I have to make Russell a delicious meal from now on.
"I'm home, love." He wraps his hands on my waist and kisses me on my cheeks. "Dinner is ready in 5 minutes. I made your favorites." He looks at me and I feel like he is worried or something. "What's wrong, Russell?" He shook his head. "Nothing, Simone. Just remember that I love you, okay?"
I pouted and pin him to the wall. I smack my hand on the wall. "What is going on? Tell me or I'll investigate myself. I know you, Russell. Tell me!" He laughs and kisses me. I will always be melted by him. "Vivian wants to ruin our marriage because she believes that dad toyed with her aunt. But it looks like her auntie had her problem herself. I mean psychological disorders such as obsession and bipolar disorder. She thought if she can ruin our marriage..."
I sigh. "I remember that she had OCD and sometimes she had a violent reaction and such. I wonder if that is connected somehow. She always wants attention that she didn't have. She wants to steal boys from their girlfriends since we're in junior high." He looks at me and caresses my cheeks. "I don't want to lose you, Simone. Don't mind it, I will take care of this," he said and smile at me.
I kiss him and wrap my legs around his waist. "You think I won't mind? Just focus on your competition and that bitch? I'll take care of her. I promise, love. Just promise me not to go with her alone? You don't know what stupid plans she had. She's a little bit psycho," I said and caress his cheeks. "Competition? Oh shoot, the opening will be three days from now, right?!" I chuckled and nod. "See? You're stressing yourself that much. Oh well, I understand your reason. So... let's go to bed and sleep. Leave your problem with Vivian. Your wife will take care of it." He nodded.
When we lay down on the bed, he crawled down and spread my legs. I moaned when I felt his lips. "You have to take a rest, uhnn!" But my body betrayed me and instead I want him to continue. "Should I stop?" He teases. I blush. "Shut up," I said and he continues.
I smiled when I saw his smiling face while sleeping. I place my face on his chest and hear his heartbeat. "Thank you, Russell. I know you are the busiest person out there but still, you always give time for us. I love you..." I kissed his forehead and went back to sleep.
"Good morning," he said and kiss me. "Morning. You should've gone ahead, I know you are busy with your practice." He smiled and embrace me. "Have you forgotten our rules? We need to eat breakfast together, remember?" I chuckled. "Tss, let's eat then." He pulled the chair and signed me to take a seat. We eat happily and savor this moment.
I sigh when I saw Edzen outside my company's HQ. "What are you doing here Edzen?" He is about to hold my hand when I distance myself. "Please, let me explain Simone." I shook my head. "No. I saw how Zyril suffers from the pain that you gave to her and you expect me to believe you than my own best friend?"
I saw how he tried to beg me. That he wants me to be his but I am afraid of him. That he is just obsessed with me because I'm the only girl that he can't fool off. "Look Edzen, you better stop clinging to things that don't belong to you," I said and smiled at him.
"Try to have a girl that is single and value her like no one else. I am telling you, you'll be happy when you do that. Because you know yourself that her heart belongs to you wholeheartedly. Stop bugging me now, I choose my family, and... nothing would change my mind. Goodbye..."
I walk away and even if I heard him cursing and muttering because he was annoyed, I didn"t look back and went straight. I smiled when I saw my wedding ring. "I love you, dear husband," I mumbled and get inside the elevator. When I saw Zyril, I notice the engagement ring on her finger. "Whoa! Luris proposed to you?!" She nods happily. "Congratulations! I never thought that playboy is head over heels to you. Cherish him, he's not like Edzen who is a jerk."
"Speaking off! You have to be careful with him. I remember that I saw a medical record of him. He has an obsession with taking things that didn"t belong to him. It's because of his dad. He was traumatized when he saw him having sex to his mistress. He saw how her mother suffered because of it."
"Great. It was like meeting two people with the psychological problems as an enemy? My goodness, even Vivian. She has OCD, she approaches Russell because she believes her aunt."
Russell's POV
I hide away when I saw Vivian. It looks like she's hunting me. My coach saw me and he signed me to follow him. We entered his office and lock it. "We've got a problem. Vivian is harassing me and she's trying to blackmail me," he said. He took off his phone and showed me the picture and video that Vivian send to him. "What the hell. Sex video? When did you have a relationship with her?" He shook his head. "I will never do that. I love my wife and our son. I will never let her do what she said. I don't care about her threat and I'll put my faith in my wife. I know she"ll be more proud of me if I won't let that cunning woman is using me."
"Thanks, coach. Since the day that you offered me your help, I know that you can be my big brother as well as my father that I can rely on. Don't worry about Vivian. Simone and I will take care of her. I only need you to do something for me, would that be okay?" I ask and smile at him. He nods. "Give me your phone, coach. I will take care of the rest." He nodded and I started to decipher his phone. I will track everything that Vivian will ask and send it to him.
"We will gather pieces of evidence that we can use against that bitch." He smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Russell." I just smile but deep inside me, I am having bitter wrath. Coach told me to skip my practice and get ready for my big event the opening of the Summer Olympics. I won't let her ruin everything, I will make sure of that.
"Are you going home this early? Why don't we drop by in a love hotel?" She spoke as soon as I saw her standing at that door. I gave her my dark expression. "That will never happen. Just like my dad, I will never fall to your shits." I pass over her when she threatens me. "Are you sure? Be careful, you might lose everything. I told you, I love taking what others own." I look back and smirk.
"Simone will never believe you and she"s the only person whom I want to trust me among the 7 billion people in this world." I left the building and went straight to my parent's house. "Mom, where's dad? I need to talk to both of you," She looks at me. "Is this about Mila?" I blink and nod. "Why? Did she bother you? Did she mistakenly call you using my name?" I look at my dad.
"No. She's still in that institution. Remember Vivian? My junior that I was helping? She"s Mila's niece and she is trying to destroy my marriage with Simone. She told me that if aunt had never succeeded in destroying you two, she will let me taste the pain that her aunt felt." My dad's face darkens. "She did? What did she do? Is she trying to do the same thing as her aunt did to us?!"
I nod. "Tell me everything and I'll take care of it," he said. I shook my head and smiled. "Simone and I will take care of this. But dad, can I ask one favor? If I need some information about what Ms. Mila did, just tell me honestly. Also, I want you to come to the opening of the Summer Olympics, you and mom. Here are the special tickets that we get. It can be used all throughout the game days." I gave him the two tickets.
"Don't worry about it. I won"t let her take away my happiness. Not my wife, I'll go ahead. She is surely waiting for me. She told me that she'll cook my favorites." They both nod. "Thank you for giving her to me dad. I realize now that you have given me the best gift I can ever wish for," I said and smile at him sweetly. I drove home and I saw Edzen at our gate. " What are you doing here? Are you pestering my wife, jackass?" His face darkens and gave me that death glare.
"This is all your fault. I will never let you have her. She is mine, leave her alone," he said. My eyes widened when he pulled the trigger and point his gun at me.
