I Swear, Let Me Love You Again

3RD POV:

Flashback (The NIGHT BEFORE.)

“Hello?” Jenny shouted as she stepped into the dark room checking around as she had been requested to come here as she didn’t want the footage of her cutting Lydia’s car brakes to be released.

She internally started calling unto her mother and dad’s spirit to protect her because she was getting weighed down by fear. Her thoughts revolved around, What will the Millers do if they find out I was the one? I will lose Nathaniel forever if he discovers this right? Will I die or end up in jail? But if I do die Lydia or Nathaniel has to come with me, if I can’t have Nathaniel, then she can’t have him too. We will be a modern day Romeo and Juliet. She smirked devilishly at the thought.

“Anyone in here?” She questioned again then footsteps were heard and Jenny, due to uncertainty and fear, decided that she had to leave urgently. As she was about to turn on her heels, in the dark she hit a large, muscular figure and she tried to run back but the man in the dark dug his nails into my skin, holding onto her arm tightly.

“Who are you? Let me go!” She fought the person’s hold and all of a sudden the lights in the room were turned on. She gasped and her eyes widening in shock as she saw the person’s face and it was quite familiar, infact unexpected.

“Now you know who I am.” He roughly let her go making her wince and she knew certainly that her arm would have a bruise.

“What do you want? And why did you grip onto my arm that way? Like I never even knew you were that aggressive.” She rubbed her arm while watching his back view retreat into another room and she followed behind him observing her location. It was like a deserted warehouse with junks and dirt all around.

She watched as he sat back in an office chair leaning and gazed on her. He turned his computer around and she rewatched the video over and over again, one could easily tell it was her as the camera caught her face right before she wore her nose mask.

“Why are you doing this?!” She snapped, grabbing the flash drive and tossing it onto the ground and stomped on it repeatedly with rage and fear in her system.

“Jenny, Jenny, Jenny. I know you don’t think that I’m that stupid that I wouldn’t have about a dozen other copies.” Jenny stared at him breathing heavily with anger written on her face thinking of her next move.

“I’m tired of asking this. What in the world do you want from me?! Sex? Because I know you have more than enough money to request for a dollar. So what? Just tell me and I will do it.” She knitted her eyebrows in confusion when he laughed loudly at her words.

“You keep playing with my life and think this is hilarious?” She snapped and his laughter instantly died down.

“Oh but you thought it was smart and hilarious cutting Lydia’s brakes right? Just to have the attention of Nathaniel who doesn’t even see you as a friend or anything anymore. I was so shocked that day because I was seated in my car in the parking lot debating whether to go see the CEO which is Lydia’s brother or not. I saw you from my car in that mini bus and I watched you intently and the minute I realized your plan I began to record because I knew it would come in handy.” He spoke and Jenny was tensed up listening word for word.

“You’re crazy and sick in the head if you think I even want to see your dumb looking face or even have sex with you. And you are sure as hell right that I’m so wealthy you couldn’t even offer me a dime. All I wanted for you to get this through your thick skull, you are never going to be with Nathaniel, Lydia wanting him or not, you’re his last option and he’d rather die alone than be with you. The other reason I asked you here was to let you know that rather than playing any further games with you and Lydia, I have sent a copy of the footage to Nathaniel, he will decide what to do with the footage but what I know for certain is you’re going to regret ever thinking you could try a brother to me and the woman he loves.”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

At those words, Jenny with rage jumped on him with no plan except to just murder or hurt him. He fell along with his chair backwards and she followed behind him on top of him scratching and trying to hurt him but he held onto her two hands and laughed boisterously in her face. Two muscular guards entered into the office and grabbed her holding onto her as she kept fighting their hold.

“What do we do with her?” They questioned and he stood up from the ground dusting off the dust from his jeans and shirt. She stared at him with fear and tears in her eyes kicking her feet.

“You know what? Let her go, toss her on the street or anywhere, let her continue running and running from the police, Nathaniel, the Millers.” They nodded at his words and she began to beg him shouting and her voice echoed through the warehouse.

They tossed her to the ground out the warehouse and spared her no glance as she whined. She began to cry and process everything and debate on her next move.

What should I do? Who do I call? Where do I go? What will Nathaniel do with the footage?

PRESENT TIME.

Everyone was filled with joy at the news, employees had sent gifts as well as partners and shareholders, even his old classmates. His entire room was filled with gifts, in fact his father had to order his guards to take some to Andrew’s apartment.
