Chapter 85
Jennifer
I couldn’t believe I just spoke to my dad like that and in front of two other people and then turning around and walking out. His going to freak out I’m definitely going to hear about it very soon. Then there is Romeo, he told me not to give my dad what he wanted and I did exactly that I threw a tantrum. “Lucas please tell me there is something to drink in this car.” I said as I got into the SUV “Yes, Jennifer right in front of you in that small cabinet.” I open the cabinet and poured myself a very stiff drink. I wanted to go back in there and apologize but I was just too angry with him and that Francesca bitch. I don’t normally call people bitches but she is definitely a bitch. I was still berating myself when Romeo got back in the SUV he didn’t say a word, he poured himself a shot of whiskey or bourbon I don’t even know what I was drinking and took a sip of the glass “I’m sorry Romeo I just couldn’t listen to him anymore I know you said….” he interrupted me. “Jenn I’m so proud of you you finally stood up for yourself. You don’t have to apologize to me for it.” “You sure you not angry?” I couldn’t believe he wasn’t angry with me. “No Jenn I’m proud very very proud.” He pulled me closer and hugged me just that sentiment had me crying. “No Jenn why are you crying?” I pulled away from him “I can’t believe I did that I’ve never spoken to him like that.” “Don’t worry darling his blaming me for that.” “I’m sorry.” “Don’t be. I’ll take the blame anytime. I’m glad I could be there when you got your voice.”
When we got home, we walked to Romeo’s office, that’s when I addressed the elephant in the room. “What do you think of what my dad said? About having children?” “Jenn that is something I need to think about. Like I told you I don’t want children.” “I know and I just want you to know I respect that and even if he wants to give the business to a random stranger I really don’t mind. I’m so done with all his shit.” “Are you serious you will let your birth right go to someone else?” “If my brother was still alive, I wouldn’t have gotten the business in any case you heard him he wants a grandson to leave the business to not a granddaughter. Which is very sexist by the way.” “I agree with you Jenn but I can’t be the one that stands in the way of you not getting what is rightfully yours.” “What do you mean? You want to cancel the wedding or should I say our arrangement just because of a fucking business?” I was getting worked up and to tell the truth emotional in this short time I’ve known him I actually fell in love with him. How stupid of me.
“Well Jenn this was a arrange marriage from the start if you don’t give a fuck about the business or your dad then why will we get married?” I was losing my shit by know. “You know what Romeo I’m going home until you decide what you want. Because clearly you don’t want me.” I walked straight to the bedroom grabbing my bag and started throwing all my cloths in the bag. I couldn’t believe it; I should have known it was too good to be true. Such a wonderful man that only had my best interest at heart is letting me go. Yes, I know it was an arrangement from the start but still I fell in love with him. Stupid me stupid, stupid me.
Romeo
I was proud of Jennifer don’t get me wrong but this whole thing was a arrange marriage one to help her out with her dad and me taking over his business someday but now that she didn’t care about the business or what her dad said I didn’t see the need anymore. Why should we get married? Because I made such a big fuss in the papers about it, then I’m not better than her dad. But I don’t want to lose her she’s such a good submissive and I actually need her in my life when I thought about the bad day, I had this morning the person I wanted to run to was Jennifer I wanted to hold her I wanted to be around her. What does that tell me? I can’t let her run out of here I’m not ready to lose her.
But if I do this, I need to be ready to marry her because we started everything already the question is am I ready to marry her, am I ready to share my life with someone else again because I wanted to, not because it was an arrangement. I was standing in my office drinking some whiskey thinking of everything. I just couldn’t get to an answer. I needed to be sure I don’t want to hurt her but if I look at her face when she stormed out of my office it was too late, I already hurt her. I heard a commotion at the stairs I knew it was her with her bags but I wasn’t ready to go out and make a commitment to her I need to be sure. I called Elijah “Boss” “Elijah take Jenn home and make sure she’s safe before you leave. I also want you to stay close just in case she needs you.” “Okay boss.” He didn’t ask any questions. I heard the front door open then slam shut. That’s when I realized I just let her walk out of my life and I did nothing to stop her. “Fuck what have I done?” I asked myself as I went and took a seat at my desk. I just let her down like all the other men in her life.
