Chapter 7

  • “Hello ? Hello? Damian are .. yo.. stammered. Just as he was about to answer, a voice was heard in the background. “ Who are you on the phone with? Asked the hoarse voice. With that the line disconnected. It was Mr Klaus. Fear crossed her face.
  • “ I told you I would deal with the boy, why did you phone him? He badgered pulling her blonde hair. “ Are you in love with him? He asked with his fist clenched. Susan was so scared to utter a word. She stood by the corner shakily, different thoughts ran through her mind.
  • He closed up to her, held her chin up and pierced her with glaring eyes which made her heart jump into her stomach “what are you up to? He quizzed. Can I still trust you?”. Susan nodded repeatedly.
  • After a while of contemplation, he let go of her face “Go to the basement” he ordered but she didn't bug. “I said, you should go to the basement! Or would you rather satisfy my urge tonight? He fumed. “Big shot, she called out, I want to go home” her eyes blazed.
  • She has always wanted to go home. Serving Klaus turned to Brain drainage as she added a year. She did everything he wanted her to do which included her break up with Damian.
  • He doesn't care about her feelings, it's always his way. It's literally his world and she's just his tool of retaliation. Most times she regrets her life.
  • Last year He sent her to another country as a female escort which almost claimed her life. She begged him to bring her back after being used as a sex object by his friend but he played deaf to plea and insisted she stayed till he got what he wanted which he did.
  • Mr Klaus doesn't own a company from scratch as he was restricted to build one because of his past life. He was an Ex Convict and a rich one. What he does is to sting company owners with his propaganda so he can outrun them.
  • He has a group of his like. Susan was an advantage to him. Being a pretty lady with a model body every man wanted a taste, he used her to lure most of the tough men promising them a marriage or a session with her.
  • He fishes for rising companies and buys shares then with time he would introduce his friends who would do the same, after admittance to the company’s board, he would ask for a personal partnership. and if they decline his request, he would start throwing threats of ruin and crash.
  • He sized her up with his face twisted. “ Which other home do you have from here? He mocked. Probably you’ve forgotten who raised you”. “ I'm tired, I've been grateful enough. I want to go home, she shrieked. I miss my family. "It's 20 years now.
  • I'm so tired of sleeping with you and your unending clients, " she said, fighting back tears.” Yes, you raised me and gave me life but I have a life aside from all these. Maybe you should send me back to the streets, I would be better off there than being used here. She added.
  • Mr Klaus is not one who cares for another person's emotions. Ever since his wife left him, he sees women as no less than a dog and swore never to fall victim to any sort of emotional blackmail from a woman again.
  • Her phone rang. It was Damian, he had waited enough after the first call ended abruptly. She was confused on what to do, she pressed the phone tightly to her stomach while getting Flash of stares from him. He reached for the phone, and without asking she gave it to him.
  • “ Hey sussy, is everything ok? He asked in a calm tone. “ This is not your Sussy but her father and what do you want?! He retorted. “Hello Mr Klaus I didn't mean to disturb your serenity hope all is well? Damian deflected.
  • He hung up and turned to Susan. “ If I perceive you are actually in love with that brat after all I did for you I will… Anyways no need for threat, go take a shower it's been awhile” he urged and sank to the bed.
  • She squeezed her eyes shut as she battled with the anger fuming in her, she knew she was helpless and would only attract more torment if she should follow her instincts. Slowly she walked past him and entered the bathroom.
  • As soon as she turned on the shower, Tears streamed down her cheeks mixing with the running water. She let loose all her emotions and cried silently. Only thing She wished for is to go home and tell her dad about her mum's company.
  • Although she knew nothing about it, the little she heard might help them achieve something. While at her guardians house, she had heard them talk about her Mom and her greediness.
  • To think her Mom killed her new husband so she could take over his company as his lawful wife. But she had only done so out of defense. The Man gave her Mom the life she’d always wanted but abused her in several ways.
  • She must’ve killed him out of exasperation. She thought to herself. Everything made sense to her now she's grown, She understands better. She thought about her half sister, what she would look like. She must've heard the news of their mother's death and believed her to be dead too.
  • Their family was a happy one not until her Mom filed for divorce. Her love for fame made her do it. Being the younger child, She took her when leaving but gave her to guardians to be taken care of as her new husband doesn't want to father another man's child while she was always busy with work and had little of her time.
  • Her mother was a strong woman and would go length to get whatever she wanted. And Here is she, literally in her mother's situation or worse than.
