A MAN TO HATE

chapter seven

Bellatia

I walk towards my office with a frown of worry distorting my eyebrows, my heart feels heavy

It's my first time feeling this powerless

I can keep fuming as much as i want, Jungkook is unfortunately winning

I sit on my desk, but i can't push myself to work, i'm scared to find what he already did

I take a deep breath,

I can't turn back, i need solutions

I refuse to just sit here and not trying anything even tho there's literally nothing else to do

The only solution is to be able to use all my 79% of my company, and for that, i have to be married

Who would marry me quick enough not to let Jungkook ruin me in the process?

No one...

I grab my phone and call Jacky, he's honestly the only one who can marry me right on spot to save my ass if i ask him to

After the second ring, he picks up

'' Bella...'' he says simply

'' are you still in LA? '' i ask immediately

'' yes, but i'm leaving tomorrow, do you need me for something ? ''

'' yes, can you meet me at the café next to my workplace ? You know the one we used to grab croissant frequently when we were back here for vacation ? '' i explain even though i know he already knows what i'm talking about

'' what time ? '' he simply asks

'' at my lunch break time, ten thirty '' i utter

'' fine, i'll be there, see you in a few hours ''

I nod even though he can't see me

I know Jacky would do everything he can do for me and our friendship, cause of how close our families were and still are

But ask him to marry me is a bit too heavy, but if i don't ask, i'll never know

I finally start to work , i feel a bit relieved despite nothing is done yet and Jungkook's threat is still dangerously landing over my head

Jungkook is more dangerous than i thought he was, but i have to try everything i can in my power to counter him

A few hours later, i was totally immersed in my work, everything is fine for now , but i know it won't take time for this piece of shit to start putting his threats into actions

A discreet knock at my door takes me out of my working mode

I see Samantha through the wall glass , as always she has a bunch of files and paperworks in her arms, but there is also a  small Cartier shopping bag that catches my attention

'' get in '' i say with a grumpy voice

She slowly walks into my sight

'' good morning Miss Montgomery '' she says with a hesitant voice

I don't like that, and i don't like her expression either

I know my secretary too well to already know there is something wrong

'' good morning Samantha, is everything okay ? ''

She fixes her glasses on her nose, it's my first time seeing my secretary this hesitant

'' Samantha, make it quick...'' i say, impatient

'' Mr Miller removes us from his buyers list for the Platinum clubs...'' she says calmly even how alarming is the news
