Chapter 5

• *****
• I was so angry. I didn’t know why but I just was. My heart felt sore to see Leon talking to my family.
• "Kitten?..." he called and I stopped in my tracks. And stubbed my feet in anger.
• "Don’t call me that!"
• "You look even cute when you are angry….." He said.
• "Don’t call me cute…., I'm your boss, you work for me….and….and….I’ll tell you what to do….you must not talk to anyone except me ….." I yelled.
• "Wow….wow…came down kitten…I was just being polite to your family."
• "They are not my family….." I yelled, I didn’t know even know I was crying until his hands caressed my cheeks wiping my tears
• "Don’t cry kitten….I'm here for you….don’t be sad…I'm here to protect you….I won’t talk to them anymore if you don’t want to…" He said with a soft voice.
• "I'm sorry…..ex… excuse me…" I was so embarrassed….why should I cry in front of him.
• I knew I had never been this close to the opposite sex. I guessed that was why my body is behaving like this.
• *********
• Leon went to his room and made a call.
• "Kelv….hahaha….this girl is such an easy catch….I can swear it’s working….if I can make her fall then I can use her to get what I want….."
• "See bro, I told you this will work….so how’s it?"
• "She’s already blushing…..I’ll tease her a bit tonight…..bye….call you later." Leon ended the call…as Jolene came in with a cup of coffee in her hands.
• "Hi." She said with a charming smile. Leon smiled back ‘Damn she’s hot' he thought.
• "You’re new here….sorry our first meeting was not too nice….I brought you a cup of coffee to apologize for my actions." She said.
• "No…no, it’s alright." Leon said and collected the coffee "Thanks."
• "Okay….uhm if you need anything don’t hesitate to tell me, oops don’t let Gem know." She said.
• "Uhm, why?" he asked.
• Jolene made an angelic face "she thinks I'm bad…." She started crying…."I mean all I’ve ever done was for her…she still thinks I stole all her friends and took them as mine…..she’s quite tiring…"
• "Don’t cry….I'm sure she’ll understand you someday….but for now, I think you should leave." Leon's face turned cold as he saw her motives.
• "What!" She said.
• "Do I have to push you out?" he yelled and Jolene crushed her fist.
• "You bastard…this is my father’s house…ok, ok….I know what you need…..guards!" she yelled and 5 men ran in. "Beat him up….but don’t spoil his handsome face…..I love looking at it." She said and smiled.
• Just then Gem walked into the room.
• "Jolene….what the hell are you doing?" I yelled.
• "Shut up slut!" Marie came in.
• "You shamelessly brought a man into your father’s house….don’t you have shame?" She yelled.
• "Gem….. henceforth I disown you….you are no more my daughter…….I should have done this a long time ago but Marie here begged on your behalf…..Today not anymore……you’re a disgrace." Father yelled.
• In tears, I said "What wrong did I do? Is it my fault that my mother died while giving birth to me? why do you hate me so much?. Fine….you've disowned me…..I’ll go….I’ll leave…..but I and my dead mother will never forgive you….."
• "Your mother is not dead!" Jolene cut in.
• "Jolene, shut it!" mom yelled.
• "No Mom, it’s time she knows the truth….. Dad is not your biological father too……" she yelled.
• "Jolene!" Father yelled, "Stop spitting trash."
• "No, dad…..I'm tired of living like an adopted child….while she’s the adopted one……yes Gem you’re an orphan….." She yelled.
• I felt my legs weak…..I almost fell back but Leon held me from falling.
• "I’ve tried for you Gem….you should go now…..guards….throw her things out….and that of her bodyguard's." Father said.
• I leaned on Leon the whole time….I was in great shock….I wasn’t myself.
• *****
• Leon led Gem outside the mansion.
• "Kitten……what do we……" she fainted and was about falling but Leon caught her…. "Kitten……Gem…..Gem…..!" he yelled.
• Leon quickly took his phone and made a call…. Before 5 minutes men in black suits filled the compound with flashy cars.
• Leon carried Gem in.
• "Sir, are we taking her to the hospital?" the man asked.
• "No…… drive to my house and call my doctor over." Leon said.
