Chapter 122
CHARLOTTE POV
I was reading in my room when I heard the sound of his car drive in. I stopped because of the way he parked his car as if he was in a chase. He didn’t even park properly or close the door. I shut the curtains pretending not to see anything when I hear him shout my name downstairs
“CHARLOTTE! CHARLOTTE WHERE ARE YOU? YOU GOD DAMN WOMAN. SHOW YOUR FACE” He yelled.
What the hell was going on? I wondered as I quickly got to my feet and opened the door.
“I am here. What is it?” I said scared that he might be thinking I ran away. I had to calm him down.
“What happened?” I asked as I was climbing down the stairs to meet him as he pulled his gun from his jeans and pointed it at me as I froze in fear.
“What the hell was happening? Grayson, why are you pointing the gun at me” I asked slowly as my heart was beating faster than it ever did. This was a life or death situation.
“You really think that I wouldn’t find out. You really thought you were able to pull the wool over my eyes, didn’t you? ” He yelled at me which was even harder to understand.
Could it be that he…. impossible! there was no way. I made sure that all his guards didn’t see me.
It had to be something else entirely.
“Grayson, please I know that you are angry right now and you are holding a loaded gun.. I am not a mind reader. Tell me what I did wrong, let’s talk about this. You know me. I would listen and apologize but you are scaring me right now.” I said hoping that he would take the bait and calm down but he brandished the gun in my face and yelled,
“Shut up. Shut the fuck up. You think you are smart?. You think that I don’t know what you did. You think I wouldn’t find out. After everything I told you, you still went behind my back and saw Calista” He dropped the bomb as my eyes widened in fear and I gulped.
“Impossible. How did he find out? Where did I go wrong? Is this a hunch. Should I deny?” These thoughts ran amok in my head as I shook it and said,
“Grayson you must be mistaken. I was by your side throughout the party. You know that. Unless you are implying that Madison is alive” I said feeling guilty that I was bringing up my dead sister but I had to.
“Shut up, don’t you dare lie to me. I have the evidence. My father saw you. His guards took a picture. Now take this and deny that it isn’t you ” He said handing me a picture as I took it and gulped.
It was me with Calista. But how?
I looked at him and saw that he was livid , his hands was shaking. If care was not taken, I would soon join my sister in the other side.
“Grayson I….” I started to explain but I was caught out as he hit my face and I fell to the ground.
“Don’t fucking Grayson me.. you slut. I am going to make sure that this doesn’t happen again so tell me what you told her. Tell me this fucking instant before I put a bullet in your brain.” He yelled as I held my nose that was oozing blood already.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
He had struck me on the nose with his gun. I bit my lips and stood up and tried again but before I could say anything. He slapped me hard and my face rang from the sudden impact. I could feel blood in my mouth but i swallowed it.
“Grayson please….. let me explain what really happened.” I said as he dropped the gun shaking his head and said,
“I don’t really care again. I am getting rid of you. You won’t ever say anything to anyone else ever again” he said as he held my neck and forced me back on the ground as he started blowing punches.
I curled up in a ball whimpering as I felt his blows landing on my back. He was kicking me and also used something hard on me which shattered. I was crying or bleeding. I didn’t even know anymore.
“Please Grayson….. I am sorry.” I said as he turned me and said,
“Apologies are not for me. I won’t accept it. How dare you try to sell me out. You think you will escape from my clutches. I will kill you first” He said choking me when suddenly his phone was ringing in his pocket.
Leaving my neck as I breathed in deeply swallowing oxygen grateful to be alive, he stood up and brought out his phone out of his pocket and said,
“What? What the fuck is wrong now? Why is everyone disturbing me?” He yelled on the phone grabbing the gun again as he paced around.
“WHAT? IMPOSSIBLE. I AM ON MY WAY. JUST STAY THERE. I HAVE TO GET THERE” He yelled in the phone before he shut the phone and slid it back in his pocket.
As for you, he said as he turned to face me pointing the gun at me as I crawled back slowly shaking my head. An overturned mahogany table was beside me as I begged,
“Grayson please. Don’t do this I beg of you.” I said as he corked the gun and said,
“I don’t need you again. You are in the past now.”
“Grayson there is a mistake. please you are not thinking straight. Let me talk to you, explain everything. You are thinking irrationally.’
“Charlotte, I warned you. I told you what would happen if you dare double cross me. I am Grayson. You don’t fuck with me and expect not to be punished. You had your chance now the time has come for you to join your maker. Good bye” he said as a gun shot rang out.
