Chapter 251
Jennifer
On the way to my fathers office I was dreading it the whole time, I was really not in the mood to deal with him not after the wonderful morning I had and I had so many plans for my bakery and for life, I’m starting a fresh, a new improved Jennifer, a wife, expanding her own business and soon to be a mother and now I had to go and deal with my father. I could hear the commotion as I got out of the lift, the two security guys tried to stop me from going in but thank God I went in when I did because my father was launching at Romeo and Noah had to step in to get him of Romeo. For the first time I used a voice I never even knew I had I screamed at my dad “Dad stop that right now!” It was like I was talking to a very naughty child was I getting myself ready for what might happen in the future. “What have you done?” I asked him as I looked around me, everything was in pieces I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. He started to defend himself by saying “I thought I had my company back I thought Romeo was dead and I can start my life all over again but no, you don’t want me to have a happy life you want me to be miserable.” “Dad, like I understand it this is my company now even if Romeo where dead I would have run it. Besides you are miserable with or without the company.” And that was the truth I’ve never seen my dad actually being happy about anything. “No, you wouldn’t have.” He went on but I realized I would have especially after everything he has done to everyone. “Oh yes, I would have after everything you’ve done to your employees, I was more than happy to take over. And what do I hear about you having a drinking problem since mom died?” “They are lying to you I don’t have a drinking problem.” Again, defending himself he was like an old broken record the same thing over and over again. “So, everyone is lying except you.” “Who are you going to believe me, your father or the other fuckers?” I realized there wasn’t a time in my life my father actually gave me a reason to believe in him so why should I start now? “Well, if you have to put it like that, I’ll rather believe them, you never gave me a reason to believe in you. Tell me how many drinks have you had today?” I asked him but my hands were on my hips “That is none of your business.” “So, you have been drinking? You dad are an ALCOHOLIC and the sooner you realize it the better for everyone.” Clearly, I shouldn’t have said that because he launched for me and grabbed me around the neck on my scar, he was trying to strangle me all I could think was, where was Romeo and will I survive this and what about the baby. My life flashed before my eyes in that few seconds. Romeo and Noah got him off me he was strong for some reason I was starting to believe he wasn’t only using alcohol.
When they eventually got him off me, I stood my ground, I wanted to fall in pieces but I stood my ground “That is, it dad, I’m done, I’m done with you, you are not welcome in my life anymore, get help and get help for yourself. You will never see your grandchildren never, I won’t bring them around someone like you never. This is my business so you have 2 options, I can let security escort you out or I could call the police but you won’t put your foot on my premises again do you understand me?” I couldn’t believe I was talking to my father like that, but I had enough, I was holding myself together by a thread but I was standing tall then my next words surprised all of us “Time is ticking BRAD!” “I’m still your father.” He screamed at me. “In blood you are but I’m done you just tried to kill me, you humiliated me countless times I’m done now are you going to leave on your own or am I calling security?” He looked at me like he couldn’t believe what he was seeing or hearing for that matter. He looked at my husband for help but all Romeo said was “She is right Brad it is her company.” He actually walked out without saying a word to either of us. As soon as he was out of the office I fell to my knees and started to cry, I think I did good keeping it together for so long. Romeo was with me within seconds holding me in his arms telling me that I’m okay but I didn’t feel okay my father just tried to kill me he tried to strangle me for God’s sake how can I be okay. I told him he won’t be part of my life anymore yes, we never got along but like he said he was still my father and it still hurt like hell.
Romeo didn’t try to rush me he just held me and rocked me and all I said was “He tried to kill me; he tried to kill me.” I said that over and over. “He would have killed our baby Romeo, I don’t want him near me ever again, I don’t want to hear about him I’m not involved in his life anymore and his not welcome in ours. I will help you with the businesses I don’t have a problem with that, but I don’t want to see him ever again.” “You don’t have to angel I promise I’ll protect you you don’t need to see him ever again.”
