Chapter 16

VIOLET'S POV

I had a nightmare, but what's funny about this nightmare is it's actually my reality.

"Hi honey" I wear a smile, oh how much I would give to see the look on his pathetic face.

I hear a sound, it seems like he has fallen down

"Sir are you okay?". I hear his secretary cry out 

"I'm fine, just please give us some privacy". 

" O-okay sir". I hear the door slam

I scoff  "I guess you aren't happy to see me".

" What kind of Joke is this?". He said with so much range in his voice, I hold myself together.

I just smile "What do you mean?, surprise that I'm not dead?, to be honest, I'm as surprise as you are, one minute I'm in heaven and two year later I'm back to this hell ". I laugh " don't worry honey, I promise I won't cause you any trouble, I just wanted to meet my husband, I've missed him so much". I notice he doesn't say anything, I take a seat "Hope you don't mind, my legs are tired".

" You died, I buried you, you are fucking dead!". I hear him hit something 

"It seems like there's been a mix up, did you really bury my body tho?" He doesn't say anything "Thought as much". 

"There's no way you survived that bomb blast, no one can, it's impossible, you don't even have any scars!"

I laugh "I guess I actually have to be close to the car for the blast to kill me, but wasn't it recorded that we hit a gas tank?, how did you know it was a bomb?". He remains quiet "Well if it makes you feel any better, I almost did die, I was in coma for like two years, and as soon as I woke up, I noticedhow my whole world had fallen apart, you don't expect me to sit down and just watch did you?". I hear a knock on the door 

" Get out!" He exclaims 

"You better get that, it might be important". I smile 

I hear his foot steps, some things don't change, I can still recognise them so well 

I hear him open the door, he yells" What is it?!"

"Uhm sir the lawyer just called, concerning your threat".

I laugh " I better be going, let's meet some other time". I get up, put on my sun glasses,  I use my cane to guide me "Good bye, oh and also, my greetings to your wife". I leave him.

"Fuck!" I hear him exclaim 

I enter the cab waiting for me outside 
"How was it?" Luther asked concerned

I sigh "Nothing really happened, but I can tell he's in total shock".

" Good, that should shake em a little "

"Thank you Luther, and I really don't want to drag you-".

" Hey, don't". We both sigh "So what's next?".

"We'll give it some time, the first step is to take everything that belonged  to my father away from him".

"There is one way to go about it".

I get confuse "What do you mean?"

Luther whispers "Your fathers will". my eyes widen 

"What about it?".

" Don't you remember?". I suddenly have a glimpse of the past

                  _ Four years ago_

"Father". I call for him as I enter his study, with  Luther and stella beside me 

" Yes dear?".

"Do you think one day I will maybe be able to take over your business?". He laughs " What's funny?".

"What's making you ask such a question?".

"Well, I just want to know, would you leave it to your blind daughter?".

He clears his throat "Well, I can't, even if I wanted to, the board would never agree to it, but you can with your future husband as your representative".

I sigh " What if I dont want to get married?".

"Well, then someone you trust".

"What if I do get married but I divorce my husband?".

He laughs " You have really thought about this haven't you? well, then your next husband".

"What if-" he jumps in

"Enough with the questions already Violet, escort her back to her room please".

I smile, I remember.

                        JESSE'S POV

I storm into the house, the maids gather me " Where is she? Where is Benita?".

One of them answers  "She's at the poolside getting a tan".  I go to the pool area, I see Benita on the chair wearing a bikini with dark shades looking directly at the sun.

"Benita!", I exclaim she instantly fall to the ground 

"Fuck! you scared me, what the fuck is wrong with you!".

I walk close to her "We have a serious problem"

"What problem?".

" Vio-" I whisper "Violet, she-she's alive".

She laughs " Yea right, is this some kind of joke?".

I sigh "I really wish it were, she stopped by the office today".

She folds her arms "And what did she say?".

"She said something like, she wants to take back what belongs to her father".

She paces around " Wait, are you being serious?, or you maybe hallucinating or something?".

"I saw her, and surprisingly she's very fine".

She shakes her head in disbelief "Tha-that can't be, it's impossible, Violet is dead!....okay, uhmm why hasn't she showed up since?".

" She said something about coma".

Benita put both hands on her head "This isn't good".

" I know, we need to do something, and we need to do it fast".

Benita takes in deep breathes "Okay, I'll think of something" I take a step closer to her

"You better, because we both know who's fault it is"

 I bump into her as I aggressively walk away.










                       VIOLETS POV


We reach the house, Luthers mum rushes towards us 

"Luther you have a visitor" she said with a nervous tone

"Who is it?".he asked curiously 

" The mother of your child". Luther rushes in, I follow him from behind.

"Good you're here". I hear a lady with a kind of high pitched voice say " I've been waiting for you, where have you been?".

Luther replies bluntly "I've been busy" I just stand there like I was invisible

"You must be Violet, I've heard so much about you". She takes my hand and gives it a shake " Do you need help getting to a chair to sit?"

I nervously laugh "No, I can take care of it".

" okay, you poor thing" she said with a pitiful tone.

I try to control how I felt about it "Okay that's enough, Let's talk somewhere else please"Luther said before taking her away.

I let out a sigh " So that's Lisa's mum"

Luther's mum replies "Yup, she's very clingy around Luther, I'm sure she'll soon nag him into marrying her again".

" What do you mean by again?".
