Lucy woke up to an empty bed and a knock at the door. She rubbed the sleep out her eyes and brushed her teeth before Se Jun knocked on the door. "Ms. Santiago, there's a Weston at the door for you."
"Thank you, Se Jun." Lucy said as she tied her robe up before walking downstairs.
Weston watched as Lucy walked downstairs, he couldn't help put stare. It was as if he was watching a Goddess grace the earth, the way her skin glowed on her perfect mocha Brown skin made his cold heart warm. He shook the feeling, he wasn't trying to be in love. He was just in it for the checks, besides, he knew Lucy was expecting and he wasn't cut out to be a father.
"Let's go to my office, shall we?" Lucy smiled as she lead him to her office that was located in the back of the house.
"What can I help you with, Weston?" Lucy asked.
Weston got comfortable in his seat before speaking, "The block you gave me was taken. I mean I can handle myself, but I ain't tryna start no beef ,ya feel me?"
Lucy knew exactly whose block it was. But this is just a little payback. "I'll handle it, Weston." Lucy reassured.
"Say less.. I gotta go though. I'll have your money tomorrow." Lucy nodded as Weston exited the home. She had a feeling this wasn't going to be the last time one of her employees came with the same situation, so she called up Civilette and set up a meeting with Corey and his lawyer.
________________________________A few hours later, Lucy got dressed and headed to her lawyer's office.
"What's This all about Lucy? I got a business to handle." Corey said as he checked his watch.
"This will be short then, just business." Lucy smiled as she took a seat next to Civilette.
"To settle this divorce for good, I want all your business locations in Georgia." Lucy added.Corey chuckled. "What exactly are gonna do with them Lucy? You don't know the first thing of running my businesses."
Lucy nonchalantly shrugged her shoulders, "You'd be surprised... I want the locations, I'll pay you for the first year's compensation. Sorta like rent. Then after that it's mine." Lucy negotiated with a poker face.
Corey was hesitant about selling her the blocks in Georgia, but since someone was already selling on his blocks without permission he thought it'd be much easier than going to war."Deal." Corey reached his arm out for a hand shake. Lucy accepted the hand shake with a smile.
Lucy took her phone out from her clutch as it vibrated,
Kwan: Hey babe, we're still up for lunch?
Lucy: Yeah, I'm in a meeting but I'll meet you at Buckhead Diner.
She smiled as she put her phone back in her purse. She looked up to see Corey looking at her. She looked back down before pushing her hair behind her ear.
"I'll have Civilette whip up some paper work for you to sign in a week. I have to get going." Lucy said as she got up from her seat walking out.
Corey ran right behind her, "Lucy..?" He grabbed her arm gently so she wouldn't walk away. Lucy turned around, raising one eyebrow."What Corey you're going to make me late." Lucy looked at her Armani watch.
"Is the baby mines..?" Corey asked with a bit of hurt in his deep baritone voice. She sort of felt bad at first, she didn't want this to happen. She didn't even want to be near him. But it was as if a force was pushing them together as Lucy desperately tried to pull apart.
"I... I don't know.." she whispered in shame. She could see the hurt and anger in Corey's eyes, steam was practically coming from his eyes.
"What the fuck you mean, YOU DONT KNOW." Corey yelled pushing her into the wall. Everyone turned their heads towards them and Lucy was so embarrassed.
"Yo, Corey get your fucking hands off me.. you're making a scene." Lucy said softly but firmly trying to get pry his hand from off her.
"Okay.. okay. Break it up you two. Take it in the office." Corey's lawyer said as he pushed them in the room before shutting the door.
"I'm going to calm down. So I need you to shut the fuck up before I seriously hurt you." Corey grumbled.
Lucy looked at Corey as if he had Dumb ass written all over his face. "You serious right now!! You think you got the fucking balls to be mad at me because I got pregnant and it might not be yours... WE'RE NOT TOGETHER!! You got a bitch pregnant while I was carrying your fucking daughters, Corey!! How dare you even turn your mouth up to me like that." Lucy yelled as she push him continuously, but he didn't budge.
"HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO APOLOGIZE." Corey asked as he raised his voice.
"Corey, you owe me your fucking life."
"Maaaan, Fuck all that. Fuck that! You think you can just go out and be a hoe. Fucking who ever would allow it. Fuck You Lucy." Corey shook his head as he pushed past Lucy.
"Fuck me!? No nigga FUCK YOU. That's why it's NOT your baby. Dumb ass nigga I would NEVER keep your child." Lucy lied to hurt his feeling and that she did. Corey totally blacked out. He turned back around grabbing Lucy by her neck and pinning her to the wall.
"Corey get the fuck off me!?" Lucy wailed. She tried to scream but she barely had enough air in her lungs to breath.
Corey didn't speak he just tightened his grip until their lawyers walk in.
"Corey let her go right now, security is on their way." Civilette yelled. Corey did as he was told put not before slapping her in the face.
Lucy gasp as she held her right cheek. She clinched her jaw and grabbed her things off the table before storming out. Corey and the lawyers called after her but she kept going,
"You alright, Lucy?" Se jun asked."I'm Great. If that nigga come 100 feet near me shoot his ass on SIGHT." Lucy said putting her designer glasses on as they left the firm.
