I tried so hard to understand,what was going on but I couldn't because Gavin seemed like he was ready to burn down the Whole hospital.
"Gavin stop!'', i shouted. Why are you creating a scene?, you shouldn't be here please leave.
"Oh, and why is that?", stepping closer to me. "Because am trying to save you from him right".
"One more step close to her, I will put a bullet in your brains Gavin",pointing a pistol on his head.
"Don't try to intimidate me Bryan, I know who you truly are, wasn't this why you…".
"Out!", he shouted cutting him off.
"Yeah sure, of cause I will leave, but I will be back for you Bryan".He stormed out with anger.
Bryan's face went pale and avoiding my gaze
"Bryan are you alright, am sorry about what just happened".
"It's alright ivy, you didn't do anything wrong and their is no need for an apology,
He cautioned and still avoiding My gaze.
"Get some rest we will leave tomorrow I need to make some call". He quickly went out.
""""""""
"You Know the reason we are so don't start acting,...you're not even my type".Williams said arrogantly.
His words struck Tracy so hard but she tried to be calm not to ruin everything her mom had planned.
"Now that your brother has dropped his resignation letter, are you going to become the director".
"Oh C'mon don't be in a hurry", Williams hissed,his voice holding the edge of mockery.
"We need to get married first, that is the only way my dad will hand over his company to me".
Tracy's face Beamed with a smile.
"Why are you smiling?". William asked,with bitterness filled in his tone.
"What's funny in what I said?,remember you have a role to play for this marriage to work"
"Well whatever it is, I am going to do it just to make sure I see ivy crumble and beg for my forgiveness". She said her face twisted in anger.
"Sir there's a problem". His personal assistant James said, gesturing his attention.
"And what is it", his voice laced with curiosity.
"The Globex industry refused to sign the contracts after they heard that Mr Bryan resigned from the company"
Williams stood up in anger, his hands closing around his throat like a vice.
"What do you mean by they refused to sign the contract,uhhhh ... .talk to me"he snarled, his grip tightening on his neck.
"Do you know how much money we are about to lose because of your incompetence?".
"Williams stop…you are hurting him". Tracy shouted in fear.
He ignored her, his attention all focused on James.
"Sir… I tried talking to them but they hung up saying I should let them know when Mr Bryan is back at work".
"I see they've got some nerves", He scoffed and knocked him off.
"Put them on the line, else you will lose your job right now!". He ordered and walked back into his office and James followed him immediately.
Tracy couldn't believe the side of him she just saw, fear gripped her and she quickly ran home.
""""""""
"Mom is Williams, the kind of man you want me to be with, that guy is such a mean monster, his so mean!".
"And that is what makes him perfect for", mrs Rowlands said in a reassuring tone and slightly arranging her hair.
"Have you ever wondered why he has one eye…Hmmmmm…, have you? because he wants revenge on his brother".
"Mom, what are you talking about?"Tracy mumbled.
She moved close to her with her lip curved in a mischievous smile.
"Listen here princess, mom wants the best for you, and that is why you need Williams to take Bryan down and I will take Ivy down, you need nothing to worry about".
"But mum Williams is scary"her voice already cracking with tears.
"Shhhh", using one of her fingers to close her mouth. "It's only a temporary transaction after this whole thing is over you will leave him".
"But mum,how do you destroy a monster without been one".her tone laced with concern.
"Can you allow me worry about that?,and concentrate on getting married to Williams".
"And who is getting married to Williams?". Mr Rowlands asked walking inside the living room.
"Me dad", putting up a fainty smile. Mom said I should marry him so that…."
"Can you shut up spoilt brat". Mrs Rowlands shouted. Are always this lose and carefree I should be the one talking to your dad about this".
"But… mom I was only trying to tell dad".
Mrs Rowlands got angry even more,
"One more word from you,... I will break your jaw".
"Hey Sweetie",Mr Rowlands, said trying to calm her down. " there is no need for all the arguments if she wanted to tell me herself wouldn't be an issue".
"And why are you getting her married to Williams".
Mrs Rowlands sighed. "Because I can do anything just to see my daughter happy".
"You're are pushing this too far already Alice, she is not getting married to the Bank's family and that's Final".
Tracy stood confused. "What do you mean dad?".
"My decisions are final Tracy go back to Your room now!. He shouted.
Tracy walked out immediately without saying a word.
"And since when did you picture yourself as the man of the house?", her tone filled with insults.
Mr Rowland walked away without saying anything to her.
Mrs Rowlands was consumed even with more rage watching him walkaway from her.
"Woah". She screamed, bitting her lower lip.
"Seems like this low life doesn't know I have been managing his excesses.
Her jaw tightened in anger her fists clenched so tightly that blood beaded from her palms
And she mumbled.
"Just watch and see my dear husband, how I'm going to ruin you and take over everything you ever had. I have played this game long enough and I can't keep up with it".
"She quickly brought out a pill from her hand bag and threw inside Mr Rowlands favourite wine.
"Let's see how you will survive this one my beloved husband".
