Chapter 7
- Chapter 7
- Ace She was shocked, seeing the files in her hands, she could not believe her eyes. She had signed the marriage certificate and she doesn't remember. I am sure she is up in her room trying to remember, but I don’t care. And what can I say, I already took a liking to her and now I have no intention of letting her go. She is mine now, and forever. My door creaked open and Mike walked in, he didn't look happy, he was slightly frowning at me “What?” I grunted, not having that look plastered on his face “If you want to talk to me, remove that frown” I added.
- He grunted “What are you thinking, bringing her into the mansion, you don't know her, you run ninety percent of your deals here in the house, all your files and money are here in the house, what If Xavier planted her here? What if it's all a plan, what If she is working with Don? I mean, dating him for, what, four years and she didn't know he is the son of Don? Do you seriously believe that? My bet is she is here to spy on you and you are letting her” He blurted, the anger and frustration in his voice, I could sense it.
- “So?” I blurted, with my face locked on my laptop.
- “So?” he muttered, confused.
- “How many spies have we heard of in the last ten years?” I asked him, his brows furrowed and his lips were shut. I slammed my laptop and turned to him “How many!”
- I growled. He gulped down and flickered “50” He answered “And how many were able to succeed?” I asked again.
- He turned to me, almost like he could already figure out what I was driving at “None, they all never made it past the gate” he muffled “So you think she is just a regular model?” he asked “Yes,” I answered him.
- To me, she is more than just a regular model, she is a model who knows how to make me feel good. I don't think I have met anyone like her.
- “Aubrey!”
- “Aubrey, come out! Now!”
- “Aubrey!” I heard a loud voice coming from the compound, I got up and walked to the window and there he was, Xavier, standing inside my compound with four of his men, all armed and covered in blood, they had killed my men.
- “Should we get ready, boss?” Mike asked “No, We will scare Aubrey.. I’ll go,” I said to him and went downstairs, but Aubrey was already there, with three guards that I had kept to watch over her, guarding her like a loyal dog would guard and protect his master.
- “Xavier, what are you doing here? Do you have a death wish” she yelled at him, Mike and I stood by the door, watching. “Aren’t we going to engage?” he whispered, I lifted my hand and gestured for him to hold on.
- “Yes, except I don't intend to die today, not until I take you home with me.. Aubrey, I love you… I want you back in my life, I'll break up with Sandy if that’s what you want but please, please come back with me” He begged her,
- What a wimp!
- I can’t believe this loser will be the next Don.
- Ugh, disgusting!
- “No, you already made your choice and I have made mine, I am staying here so leave!”
- Aubrey said to him, I could hear the conviction in her voice.
- I smirked, that’s my girl.
- “If I have to drag you out of this mansion myself, then I will, because you are coming home with me today” he sneered and walked up to her. My guard stopped him and he pulled out his gun and aimed it at them “Let me through” He ordered but my men didn't budge “Ma’am, please return to the room, we’ll take it from here” My men said to Aubrey while I stood and watched.
- “Should we engage?” Mike asked, I tilted my head towards him “Why are you in such a hurry?” I smirked.
- “Sir Xavier, you do not want to pull that trigger, this is Ace house, you do not want to do it” one of the guards blurted.
- “Aubrey, if you do not want me to put a bullet through their skulls as I did to the men by the guard, step forward, and let's go home” he threatened “Are you out of your mind!” Aubrey yelled at him.
- “I will count to five, if you are not by my side then, I will blow their brains fucking brains off”
- He threatened yet again.
- Aubrey began to panic “Ma’am, we can handle ourselves so please go inside,” One of my men said to her but Aubrey was stubborn, she didn't want to leave them behind. I guess it was time for me to step in.
- “And I’ll give you five seconds to leave my mansion, if you don't, you won’t like what’s going to come for you” I grunted as I stepped out of the door, glaring at Xavier, I gazed at him, seeing him covered in my men’s blood infuriated me.
- “I am only here to take what belongs to me, I want my woman back!” he yelled. I turned around and grabbed Aubrey and placed her before me. “What are you doing?” she whimpered. “Tell me, peach, do you want to leave with Xavier or do you want to stay here?” I asked her.
- Without hesitation “I’m staying” she blurted.
- Xavier walked closer and I pulled out my gun placing it on his head, with a dead stare, plastered on my face, I looked deep into his eyes “Trespassing into my mansion, killing my men, and trying to steal my woman, I have more than enough reasons to kill you and your father will not be able to lift a finger to avenge you, move one more inch and this bullet goes straight into your skull.”
- Xavier stepped back, gritted his teeth, and walked away, as he turned his back on me, I pulled Aubrey closer, placed her face on my chest, and whispered “Close your ears”
- She did and I pulled the trigger, killing the men he brought with him.
- Bang!
- Bang!
- Bang!
- Bang!
- Bang!
- “Tell your father I said, the next you trespass into my mansion, he will receive your dead, now carry your dead men and leave my mansion!”
