Beautiful Lies[ON HOLD]

♤chapter eight♤

Hey I am so sorry that I wasn't updating at all these last few weeks. I seriously ran out of ideas and I just wrote this chapter right now . It's currently 2 am but I felt like I needed to write this chapter since I love all of you ! Don't hate me too much okay?

Anyway enjoy and enough blabbering ❤

Those words felt like stabs to Hazel's heart. She was so angry at him that she wanted to punch him to death. She never hated-no ,loathed someone before , but now she knew that she did, even when she first met him .

"I- I will tell you everything Dominick. I will ! But please just listen to me". She begged him , trying hard not to hiss at him . He looked at her for a second, still debating if he wants to listen to her or not , before he nodded.

What . Is . Happening.

"You have ten minutes to tell me everything. Don't you even try to lie." He threatened. She quickly nodded, before he ordered the cops to uncuff her.

What is he exactly? People are always following his orders , even cops? Is this a joke? They were literally going to put her in jail without even knowing anything?

"I don't have all day miss Hazel ". He waited patiently for her response, trying his hardest not to look at his watch every three seconds.

What an arse .Hazel thought. She took a deep breath before saying in a low shaky voice. "I don't think cops are going to like what I am about to say. For that I ask you to take us somewhere a little more private ".

"Are you ordering me ? I didn't know that a lowlife stranger would ever dare to say that . You've got the guts , I see".He replied smirking. He was enjoying this a little bit too much for her likings but what she could only say about him right now , is how bipolar he is . One second he is cold and angry, and the second he is enjoying her pain.

"I-I beg you". She whispered. Here she thought she would never beg someone again. But this man in front of her proved that he could break her , rip her to million peaces . Would he ever care? No.

"After you then". He took her to the same caffee they first met . The smell of coffee invaded her senses and she smiled, even though she was not allowed to in this situation. Luana used to make me my coffee . Without sugar , just the way I liked it .

She ordered her coffee, without sugar again, and he raised an eyebrow , looking all but weird at her. To everyone around them , they looked like friends having a nice cup of coffee. But in reality it was far worst. Who would drink a cup of coffee with an enemy? Them , I dare say .

"I've never drank sugar ever since I was born". She explained. He nodded without showing a hint of emotion, before urging her to speak. "If you must know, a lot of people prefer their drinks sugarless, but I guess you don't know that."

"Speak."

"I- don't , I don't know what I should say first. You might hate me more . But we would share the same hatred then . I hope you understand, by the end of my confession, that I mean no harm to you nor your daughter and-. " She started before he cut her off.

"Get to the point Miss Murray ". He hissed. She flinched at his sharp voice before proceeding with her speech, that might get her to loose an eye or a hand."I've married nine men before you ".

She froze at his reaction as he started laughing, getting everyone's attention. That woman was cracking a joke in the middle of a serious conversation!

"I am not joking, dare I say". She whispered, confidence already draining from her voice. "I know it's not something I should be proud of , because I am certainly not . But for personal reasons I had to . I needed money-".

"You needed money to feed your hunger for power. I didn't know you were a complete bitch, but now that I know, I can completely turn you in without any remorse now ". He clenched his fists , who were placed on the wooden coffee table. Humor long forgotten.

"Listen , wait!". She all but shouted. " I don't have any care in the world for myself. I have children to feed ! Twenty four children to be exact and I can't feed them without stealing! ". She shouted once again, after realizing that no one was in the cafe anymore.

"What is the meaning of this?" . He asked her , daring her to lie in his face. After a good threatening minute of silence, the sound of his fist made Hazel gulp back in response.

"Bloody hell answer me darn it!" He griped her shoulders, making her stand up in response. It sure is going to leave a deep mark tomorrow morning. But did he care? Hell no . Did she? Not anymore.

"I- I come from Malawi , south Africa. I have an orphanage. And I do raise twenty four african children with my bestfriend and one of my other very few matea. And if I don't feed them they will die of hunger. In all honesty, I would steel two thousand more times if I still had the opportunity. With no regrets . " She stated. Since she was already telling the truth, might as well continue till the end .

"You have the audacity to tell me this , I , the CEO of one of the most well known companies? Dare to admit that in front of my face and you know that this will at least put your arse in jail for ten years , if not more ? Do you think I will believe you?" . He shouted scaring the shit out of the passerbys.

"Yes! You have to believe me ! I am not lying you can see for yourself! I have a lot of pictures back home !". She immediately took her cheep cellphone and showed him pictures of the , might I say , illegal orphanage, and children .

"See! I am not lying? Why would I? You could take me back to jail any second you want now . But I won't give up ! I have mouths to feed ! Lives to save . So how dare you , how dare you get angry about this? ". She finished. She was honestly exhausted of all this and needed an hour to stay by herself, probably cry her eyes out that she literally just spilled ever single detail . If only Luana knew.

"Twenty five children?" . He asked. She shook her head, grateful that he did not pull another stunt.

"It's twenty four now . O-one of the c-children died two days ago". She now let all the tears out , ignoring his unwelcomed presence. "I- I couldn't work anywhere because it was never enough. P-people knew all our doings were illegal but were kind enough not to turn us in . I-I had to seduce men to get money or they would die . I had no other option". She cried.

"Tell me more". He calmly said.

"A few months ago , we started running low on money and here you came , on television, just announcing your break up with one of your girlfriends. I thought it was a great idea , because I knew that you were rich and no matter what , I had to do it ". She all but shook.

"You didn't even think that this fool in front of you have a kid to take care of? A family? A life? Maybe you didn't think that I had to work days and nights for my daughter, putting effort and sweat into everything to make my company known. Hazel , I loathe you from the bottom of my heart. ".

"I-I know".

"I will be so stupid if I say this right now but let's go home now".
