"God, mom! That was unnecessary!" I whispered yelled at my mom as well both sat in the car.

"I don't need to remind you that you're getting married," She shot back and I mumbled something to myself.

"Did you fall in love with this girl?" My mom asked with disgust in her voice, while examining my face.

"You say it like it would be a bad thing." I answered her.

"It would actually be a disaster if you did.  I'm really glad you are finally moving on from your past, but I wish you moved on because of Penelope, not some girl we know nothing about."

"But that's something that can be fixed, right?"

"Kyle, stop it. Penelope is your future, not Mackenzie, okay?"

"Whatever."

"It's too late to go back now, we asked you! You said you were happy this wedding!" She attacked.

"That was before I met her!" I argued back.

"Really?"

"Yes mom! Feelings can change you know!"

My mom sighed, "Your happiness matters alot to me, so I suggest you forget her and try to fall in love with Penelope so we keep the peace in our family. You and your father have been getting along these past years, don't throw that away for that girl or I will be forced to make difficult decisions."

"Difficult decisions?! Are you threatening me!?"

"Take it however you want but if you don't create distance between the both of you, then I will fire her. Don't test me."

This is the worst.

I took out my phone and sent a text apologizing to Macy. The text delivered but there was no reply.

I kept silent the whole ride, how could she tell make sure I fall in love with Penelope? If it was that easy to forget someone, I wouldn't have been obsessed with Alexis.

Years ago I let Alexis go because I was immature and didn't know what to do. It's different now, now that I've found someone who takes my mind off Alexis, why should I let her go?

This time, I will fight.

The weekend flew by with me staying with Ash and Brian at the penthouse. Unfortunately, they traveled back this morning.

"Good morning sir. Coffee?" Lisa's voice broke me away from my thoughts.

"Yes. Black."

"Same color as your soul," She muttered to herself, but does it really count as muttering if I could hear it?

"Lisa," I called out to her and she slowly turned to meet my eyes.

"Sir?" She answered in a hushed tone.

"A piece of advice even though you didn't ask for it. If you're going to mutter something, do it quietly otherwise, speak in your head."

"Oh sir I-"

"Save your pathetic explanations and get out of my office."

She left my office with her head lowered. These people think just because I say nothing to them in regards to the snide remarks means I don't know what my employees say about me.

They must have a lot of free time on their hands to be able to gossip about their boss then act like loyal workers when I'm in the room.

Bunch of hypocrites.
