Klay’s POV
Broadening my authority, strengthening my power and introducing my organization in this country will help me easily find Kelly. Manipulating the higher authority in this country for my own benefit will be of great help and I will do everything to find Kelly. To do that, I need the connection of Emily’s father since he has control all over this country.
I came here to negotiate with him but he asked me to marry his stubborn daughter in exchange for a more powerful bond between our organization. It’s in my favor since I know Emily is crazy over me. I will use her until I’m completely done. However, I didn’t expect Emily to rudely refuse marrying me.
When I got back to the mansion, the maid’s were in chaos. My forehead creased.
“What the hell is happening?”
“S-Sir, Miss Amanda hurt Mr. Monroe.”
“What?” I rushed upstairs and went straight to Mr. Monroe’s room. I laughed sarcastically when I saw him sitting on his wheelchair while his cheek was reddish and swollen. His eyes were sharp as he looked at me.
“S-Sir...”
I clenched my jaws. “Where’s Amanda?”
“She’s in her room, S-Sir.”
I went to Amanda’s room. She greeted me with a smile but I grabbed her neck and slapped her. She fell on the bed as she looked at me with tears in her eyes while caressing her reddish cheek.
“W-Why...”
I angrily pointed a finger at her. “Did I allow you to hurt him?”
She swallowed hard and looked at me in horror. “H-He’s being stubborn. He won’t tell me where his daughter went—”
“DID I ALLOW YOU TO HURT HIM?”
She looked down and sobbed.
I gritted my teeth. “I need him alive and functioning well, Amanda! If he died because of what you’re doing, I will bury you alive with him. Do you understand?”
She sobbed and nodded but I’m not content with that.
“DO YOU UNDERSTAND?”
“Y-Yes...yes... I’m sorry....”
I tilted my head from side to side before I angrily stormed out of her room. That bitch would do everything as she pleases but I won’t let her ruin my plans. Kelly will never come back to me once her father dies. I will not allow it.
*** Emily’s POV
I was lying on the bed like a corpse, staring blankly at the ceiling. My life has been a living hell ever since my own father intervened with my personal life before. I can still remember everything. I can still recall, crystal clear, how he fiercely went against the man I chose to love. He was so angry. He did something horrible that I couldn’t forget and forgive. I was happy, but he ruined that happiness.
Squeezing my eyes closed, I remember the beautiful dream that was ruined by the terrifying nightmare because of my own father.
