The Devil Dressed in Pink [unedited]

Corazon was chilling eating Chinese take out and drinking a beer when he heard his door behind knocked on. He looked on the camera only to see his brother. 

Pressing the intercom button "Why are you here Doffy"

"We need to talk, I have messed up," Doffy said. 

"Glad you know, now leave," Corazon said. 

"Corazon please" Doffy pleaded. He never begged which made Corazon open his door to his brother. 

"What did you do to Charlotte?" Corazon asked sitting down on his couch putting his tv on mute. "When she came back from your office she was out of it for the rest of the day,"

"I was releasing stress with a woman" Doffy explained. 

Corazon groaned "What the hell, where is the genius brother I know so well?" he asked calmly. "Fucking hell, she was letting you in first you gave us that fucking contract then you did this shit," He said shouting the last part. 

After a moment of silence, Corazon let out breath calming his rage.

"Charlotte had a fucked up childhood where her mother controlled her every move and tried to sell her off to men that wanted to control Charlotte, she became her own boss and created with the company with me because she could be her own boss and wouldn't be controlled, she prides herself on freedom on being free" He explained calmly despite wanting to punch his brother in the face. 

Doffy leaned back covering his face with his hands "What about buying the companies that I wanted for the company" He said. 

"You hurt her when you did that so she is hurting you back now after you did this I don't know what is going to happen next," Corazon said. 

"How do I fix this?" Doffy asked. 

"I don't know, you have only dealt with women who where depended on you but she isn't like that not one bit and you can't make her like that, figure it out on your own" Corazon said. 

Doffy left and was driving while surrounded by his own thoughts before sending an email offering a meeting as a peace offering.

It was 3 days later and they were facing the stoic Charlotte. She had a blank look on her face meeting his eyes directly, 

"Let us call peace," Doflamingo said. "My intentions were misunderstood and caused a series of events that weren't necessary" 

The conversation carried out with Corazon talking but under than under the table she was shaking her hand was shaking and Corazon was holding her hand in an attempt to console her. Nami was already on her phone messaging Francis, noticing the blood from Charlotte's palm that where clenched. 

"Doffy_" Came a female voice the same girl from the office she barged in, "I think I am pregnant"  She looked straight at Charlotte her eyes glimmering with mischief and glee.  "And its yours" 

It was like a switch that was flipped from how fast the emotions came to Charlotte.

"Oh shit," Corazon said. "This girl is begging to get killed"
