"I hate you." I repeated as I continued to walk toward her, causing her to touch the closed refrigerator with her back as she backed away. "I hate you so much that sometimes...

I ran out into the hallway and toward the stairs. All I wanted was to get out of this house.
My father blackmailed me. Me. His own daughter. Made of his flesh and blood. I can't believe it. He allied himself with the enemy.
Okay, the enemy is actually Harry and not his father, but still.
Tears filled my eyes, but not from sadness, no, from anger. I have always been more angry than sad. Even as a child. But I don't allow myself to cry. He isn't worth it.
Our dads apparently knew that Harry and I would want to kill each other if we met one day. Was that why we were doomed to meet today and not before? After all, we knew nothing of each other's existence.
And all these secrets and deceptions because of a Styles and Scott family deal?
So blood isn't thicker than water after all.
How on earth did my father do it? This guy is dumb as shit. Like how could he trick me all these years? It's still a mystery to me anyway that he can run such a big company like our family's. I underestimated him. Maybe that's why he didn't pay attention to me all these years, so as not to build up a bond with me that he would then have to destroy one day for a business deal. But who am I kidding here? He just didn't want to spend time with me.
Does my mother know about that deal and the contract, or is she clueless? Robin said they have been gathering information about Falling together for 3 years. Have they been planning it for that long?
All these years I have cried myself to sleep because my father was not interested in me, only to find out now that he was secretly gathering all this information about me and my job. Now he has everything to wrap me up in a deal with information that forces me to obey him. Otherwise, many innocent and good people die.
But why didn't they keep us out of it? If it wasn't for that dinner, we probably never would have met and they could have just pulled off their family deal quickly. Who knows how long it would have taken the CIA to get another lead to catch Falling. It could have been months or years.
Due to all the shock that totally threw me off I didn't even get to ask how long their deals run and therefore ours as well. Does it takes so long? Is it taking so long that they had to wrap us in to avoid an unplanned meeting of the CIA and Falling? Apparently.
So what kind of a fucked up deal is this? And why do our two families have to be involved in it? What the hell do they have to do together that apparently can't be done alone?
Both families are strong on their own. The Styles are known all over England and they are really powerful. So are the Scotts. We were never enemies, but our families weren't really friends either. We didn't need anything from each other and lived quietly side by side.
