EPISODE TWENTY-FIVE

I drove as fast as I can to the house, I dialed her number and she picked it up immediately.
I wodnered what's wrong with her.
" Hey, I'm here already "
" I've seen you, I will join you shortly "She whimpered before dropping the call.
I took a deep breath, Reminiscing what has been going on in my life for the past one week, I love Magnolia so much but fate seems not to be with joining us together.
I wished I can spend the rest of my life with her, but the mentality of everyone here is quite different from mine.
And the marriage contract which has bene signed and sealed as well.
I can't keep her as a side chick, It's better for me to break up with her before she get obsessed.
The knock on my window screen jolt me out from my ocean of thoughts.
I opened the door for her, Surprisingly, Her clothes are torn already and she was crying.
" What happened to you? "I asked as she closed the door.
" My boss son, Mr. Hampson first son arrived today, he tried to force himself on me "She whimpered and I seethed angrily.
Is he crazy?
Why will he force himself on a weak lady like her?
" Hey, it's fine okay, I will take you to somewhere safer than this "
" Please do, I will appreciate "She said softly, I patted her head before igniting the car to life.

FLEUR POV
I waited until Mateo is back and we ate together.
" I heard the Agents harassing you earlier, What happened? "
" I wasn't able to pay my rent and other bills "I said with a shrug and he took a deep breath.
" I will pay "He said after a long silence and I gasped .
" Huh?! "
" I said I will pay"
"You don't have to worry, I can sort myself out okay, This is a very personal stuff and I don't want to disturb your own life with mine "
" I never said you've ever disturbed me, I just want to help, In which I will do "He said with a soft smile and I blushed.
I hugged him tightly and he laughed.
" Hey, don't choke me "He mumbled, He cupped my as*s softly, I buried my face in his chest and he laughed.
" Shall we? "He asked and was about to push me to the bed but I stopped him.
" We can't do it here, My bed isn't that strong, And you don't like doing it slowly "
" Oh!, Let's go to my room then "He said quickly and I nodded.
He swept me off my feet before taking me to the room.

ROYCE POV
Getting to the club house, Everywhere was bubbling with life and the ladies could be seen wrapping themselves around the men.
I took a deep breath before walking into the club deeper.
" Where's he? "I asked the one beside me and he pointed to a dark, Sharp and dangerous corner of the club where dubious acts are being carried out.
" Are you sure he's there? "I asked staring at the way closely and he nodded.
He bring out his phone and showed me the tracking device.
" Oh!, Okay then "

THIRTY MINUTES LATER...
" I beg of you, it wasn't my fault, We framed everything, we set everything up and I thought you knew about it" He groaned, trying as much as possible to absorb the pains.
I laughed hysterically, As the sad incident started resurfacing on my head.
" I asked you this time again, Where's Brea? "
" Brea is in the Alvarez mansion, She's now the wife of Mr. Alvarez, But trust me, I did everything because of you, I don't want Brea to ki*ll you "
" But you made her ru*in a happy family?, And you were stu*pid enough not to realize that she has been using you? "
" But what Mr. Alvarez did isn't good enough!, He was wrong as well, Everyone has their own story to tell in this but I want you to know that Mr. Alvarez started everything, He was greedy! "He yelled in pains and I laughed again.
" Did you even investigate everything before assuming that Mr. Alvarez was at fault?, You didn't even asked me before you shot me in the head, All because Of Brea! "
" What's the truth?, I want to know "
" Too late, Cody, Trust me, you won't like to know because right here, I'm ending you "
" Oh, really?, Then do that and let's see how you will find the real Mrs. Alvarez, Maynard's mother "He snapped , My eyes widened immediately and he scoffed.
" I don't understand what you're saying, Mrs. Alvarez is still alive? "
" Yes, she is "

Getting to the farm house, I led her in and she burst into tears.
" You should stop crying, you're out of trouble already "
" I know but I'm still scared, I don't want to have anything to do with any man again "She cried out and I scoffed.
" You don't have anything to do with any man but you called me to help you?, Really? "
" Did you think you're doing tr right thing?, You're dumping me right?, You want to get married to Zoe?, Because they are wealthy right? "
" But you should know that I can't avoid this, My hands are tied right now, Trust me, I wished I can turn back the hands of time and make things right between us but the Society we are, And the contract as well "
" The society that doesn't allow you marry from a poor background but you took pleasure in their body?, The mentality that made you say sweet words to me but at the end of the day, You turned everything again?, The mentality that made you took my virginity and here you are now, Denying all what we've ever done together?, Can you be more lenient and stop making me go through underserved punishment like this? "She yelled, with her lungs coming out, She started breathing heavily.
I sighed and made to touch her but she swat my hands away.
" I wished I can do everything right, I wished I can make us be like before, But just like I said, My hands are tied right now, Let's break up, Magnolia "
