I’m Dedicated To You

“What the hell is going on here” we heard a cold voice yell behind and the dining room fell into silence. I already know who the voice belongs to but I am scared to turn back. I am already white with fear because ever since we met I haven’t heard his voice so cold like that.

“I just asked a question about what’s going on” he repeats but this time his voice is choking and you can sense that he is pissed off but no one in the dining room is ready to say anything.

“Why are you wet,” Bradley asked me walking to my side. I was surprised when I saw how he sounded so worried but I avoided his eyes.

“What happened here Tara,” Bradley asked Tara when he saw that I was not saying anything.

“Jani is being disrespectful to Miss Grey,” Tara says.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

“Who is Jani,” Bradley asked and I got dumbfounded that he doesn’t know the names of the workers working for him. Tara pointed to the witch of a girl and my blood started boiling just looking at her but I held my fury in.

“You what happened,” Bradley says, snapping at Jani.

“Good evening sir” Jani greeted but Bradley didn’t reply.

“I didn’t do anything wrong but Miss Grey just picks a fight with me, I told her that I am her fan but it seems she is in bad mood because of her scandal,” she explained acting like a victim and I can’t help but applause her for her acting in fact as an actress I give her a thumbs up.

“Is it true Gina?” Bradley asked me to lead me to a chair. I looked at him shaking my head because I felt so tired that even talking seemed stressful to me.

“it’s fine I believed you anyways, aren’t you hungry I will ask Miss Peller to fix you a meal,”.

“No it’s fine I will do with his ones,” I said slowly, pointing to the dishes on the dining table and he looked at me worriedly. He asked some of the workers to dish my food and he asked Tara to go and bring a coat and a towel for me so I won’t catch a cold.

The workers were surprised that Bradley acted nonchalantly about the issue and he still pampered me after Jani’s claim. After I was served and started eating and Tara brought a coat for me Bradley patted my hair and I slightly got offended like someone is treating me like a pet but I decided to swallow that pride and eat since I need to eat to replenish my energy.

“So, you say it’s Gina’s fault that all these happen” I heard Bradley say in his cold voice again and I can’t help but conclude in my mind that he must have multiple personality disorder.

“Since you are so sure you did nothing wrong we might as well check the camera over there,” he says pointing to a CCTV camera that I didn’t notice before and I can’t help but smirk at how Jani is going to get roasted.

“Erm young… master. I … didn’t…..”Jani keeps stuttering when she knows that she is caught already.

“How dare you bully her” Bradley’s voice which now seems colder than before rang through the dining room and the temperature in the room dropped so that I felt cold even with a coat on.

“Where is Peller,” he asked.

“She went to the pharmacy to get drugs for her back pain,” A woman in her forties wearing a chef uniform says looking at her toes.

“Chef Lee, where were you when they were bullying her”.

“Bullying me? Asif anyway can bully me”I scoffed.

“Of course, no one can bully you, I am the only one that is allowed to bully you,” he says and I cringed at his words. Why does my perverted brain find his words suspicious?

“When Peller comes back to tell her to report to my room I need to lay down some rules on how to train the workers,” Bradley says and he dismisses the workers when I start to get offended. That is, is he not going to punish that witch girl.

“You” he called pointing to Jani “where are you going,” he asked.

“I am going back to work”.

“What works when you are fired,” he says scrunching his nose Asif just talking to Jani irritates him.

“I am fired?”Jani asked, not believing what she just heard. Everyone in the dining room also did not believe that she could be fired like that.

“Please sir don’t fire me I will be on my best behavior. I have a family to feed please sir” Jani pleaded and I felt pity for her because of her family.

“Did you want to stay?” Bradley asked and Jani nodded her head vigorously “Beg her” Bradley said pointing at me and I saw Jani’s expression change from shock to disgust and then pure hatred and I can’t help but shake my head at her.

“I am sorry Miss Grey,” Jani says through gritted teeth bowing her head but I am sure she is holding it in not to break my head and I can see everyone in the dining room anticipating my reply.

“Apology…. not accepted,” I said looking into her eyes and I am sure she was surprised that I could say that.

“Then I think you are fired Miss,” Bradley says, taking a seat beside helping me with the water jug because he noticed I am having trouble with it.

“But I already apologized why didn’t you forgive me,” Jani asked Bradley wanting to reprimand her but I cut in.

“Why?”I asked sarcastically.”For someone that believes what they see online without waiting for clarification from the victim you have the gut of asking me why, you believe I am a druggie because that’s what you want to believe and I also believe people like you don’t change no matter what so, it’s to just put you out now”.

“Did you think your life is perfect because you are Mr. Bradley’s plaything?” she says with a crazy glint in her eyes and I think she has lost when she knows she is on fire.

“What the hell did you just say?” Bradley yells and he orders one of his security men to throw Jani out before he finally loses it.

Every one of the workers was shocked about what just happened and I think that’s a lesson for anyone that wants to mess with me and I think I can use that cover to live peacefully in this house till my scandal dies down and I can go back to my apartment.

“Thanks for standing up for me”.

“It’s nothing, no one is allowed to bully you,” he says and I can’t help but roll my eyes at him. He sounds like a knight saving a damsel in distress.

“Are you done eating?” Bradley asked helping me with the water jug again I drank the water from his hand and I can’t help but question myself about how safe I felt with someone I met a day ago thinking about it now so many things have happened in the space of just two days?.”Gina Gina” Bradley called shaking my hand and I jolted back to reality.

“I am sorry what were you saying,” I asked him.

“I am asking you if you are feeling better and you don’t see the need to get hospitalized again because you know with the surgery you should still be in the hospital if not because of the trouble looming reporters,” Bradley says checking my temperature.

“I am fine Mr. Hale don’t worry I will make sure to take my drugs”.

“Ok, I think you should go and sleep now I bet you need it”.

He accompanied me to my room or should I say our room since it’s on the same floor. We got to my door and I opened my door to make my way in but I was stopped.

“If you feel any slightest discomfort please call me ok or you can press the bell beside your bed,” he says and I nodded my head because I just want to hit my bed and sleep.

“And if you feel uncomfortable with your hand you can call me or call Tara”.

“I heard you Mr. Hale you don’t have to treat me like a baby just treat me like someone freeloading at your place for the time being ok”.

He nodded his head at me and I was about to close my door when I heard him speak again.

“Did you want to sleep with me?” he asked and that halted my steps…
