Chapter 17
CALISTA RAYMONDS
I walk out of the library after dusting myself and made to the sitting room. Chase is already there and having his breakfast like nothing had happened.
Not knowing if I’m to sit on the same dining room chair with him or I’m supposed to have my food in my room.
But my mind is made up and the only thing I could think of is just to keep pissing him off until he gets so sick of me.
The two things in my mind now, is to find an escape route and while trying to find my route, I need to make him feel tormented by me.
Without thinking much about what he’d say, I walked to the dinner table and draw out a chair and sat down.
Surprisingly, Chase didn’t even look up to me nor say a word. Nah! Not like I care if he does.
A maid came up to me and help dish out the rice to my plate. I started eating.
Stealing glances at Chase who was eating and pressing his phone at the same time.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
I couldn’t help but hate and love him at the same time.
I love him for how cute he is and I know every lady will think the same. No one can look up at his face and not drool.
Maybe that’s the reason Sophia and Isabella had blamed me that they were moved. They all wanna be around him.
“What do you mean?” I heard Chase said with a traceable tone of anger. I look up to see he is on call.
“Fuckin psycho… I don’t give a dim what the fuck goes around there. Just check the fuck damn place of the incident and report back to me , how hard can that be?”
He kept swearing over and over again. And I feel pity for whoever he’s speaking to.
“So rude” I hissed when he dropped his phone.
And Ofcourse, he heard what I said because he looked up to me but it’s not I care.
Chase wash his hand after he was done eating and then taking his phone, he made his way upstairs.
I sighed and hurriedly finish up with my food. I helped the maids to clean up the dining room after and then I went to sit on the couch and watch a Netflix.
I’m bored and couldn’t think of what else to do. The only thing to do is just to sit in my room and be doing nothing.
So, I decided to watch some movies until my eyes feels heavy for me and I’ll take a nap till I decide what else to do.
The thought of my parents came into my mind and that was when I realize how much I’ve missed them.
I smiled and wish I could talk to them and tell them my life is not miserable yet. At least everything is going fine.
I don’t know how much but I’m enjoying my peace when I still have it.
Wondering what my mother will be doing at this time of the day if I was still with them, I missed her so much.
I know she missed me too but my only worry is that she don’t do any hurt to herself before I get out of this place.
Thinking about Emma, I’m pretty sure she missed me more than anything and I hope she isn’t being bullied.
She’s crazy just like me but she gets hurt easily and I’m like her only backup plan.
Not sure if my parents told her about the fate that came knocking on my door, if she didn’t know the full story then she’d hate me.
Emma might think I had planned to travel out on my birthday and that was what I did without informing her. I literally started feeling bad.
Apparently, I missed home more than any other thing and I can’t wait to escape from here.
Still lost in the thought about my world when I felt a hand on my shoulder.
“Oh Holy Crap! ” I almost screamed but stopped myself when I saw it was Rowan.
He backed up immediately seeing how frightened I was.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know you came in. How long have you been here?” I asked him sitting back on the chair and lowering the volume of the television.
“No quite long, you seem so lost in thought that you didn’t even notice me come in. Calista right?”
I nodded and smiled at him. “I’m sorry about that”
“You don’t have to. Is Chase in?” He asked me and I look up to the stairs.
“Uhmm.. yes yes! He’s in his room I guess”
“Alright, I’ll see you later” he said and ran upstairs.
Rowan isn’t really as handsome as Chase, he’s still pretty young. He’s also handsome but not to be compared to Chase.
I wonder what Waylen looks like. I haven’t see him in real life only from the media when updates about him and his family is posted.
Picking up the remote once more, I played the movie which I had pause before.
Waylen might not be as handsome as Chase but he’s pretty nice and tender. I wonder how adorable Chase will be if he’s to copy Rowan’s sweet nature.
Anyways, I don’t care if he’s nice or not. He’s still the grumpy Cold Chase that everyone knows.
Twenty minutes into the movie and I already started feeling sick and dizzy. The K-drama I was watching is actually interesting but I got tired.
I turned the television off and walk upstairs in an attempt to go into my room.
I noticed Chase’s door is open and he was yelling at Rowan.
That lousy cat!
“Go tell him that he’s so pathetic. He don’t know what love is and that’s why he can’t stay in together for too long with mother!” Chase yelled at Rowan.
“Fuck you Chase! You know too well the kind of business father is into! A Mafia have to be able to protect himself first! It was because of love that made you his miserable.. look at yourself Chase”
“Don’t you fuckin say shits to me! ” Chase grind his teeth.
“The truth hurts Chase! But you need to learn to protect yourself first! It’s because you’re this stubborn that you can’t even protect Madison Harrison!!” Rowan yelled at him.
At this time, Chase rushed to him and punch him on his face making Rowan lose balance as he fall on the ground.
Chase went ahead to grab him by his collar and stared right at him.
“If I hear you talk about her once more, I’ll kill you without blinking an eye” Chase threatened.
Seeing how hurt Rowan is from the punch, I bang into the room. Chase let go of his collar immediately he saw me and step back.
I rushed up to Rowan and help him stand up.
“Are you okay?” I asked him worriedly.
He’s got a red face because of the punch and even if he said he’s okay, I could tell how hurt he was.
“I’m fine dear… It’s just a punch”
“No it’s not okay. C’mon let’s get out of here, I’ll bring you some ice” I told him as he led the way, walking out of the room.
I turned to Chase who was standing and looking at us.
“You are so bitter”. I told him shaking my head sideways.
“Get the hell out of my room this instant” he yelled throwing the glass next to him on the floor.
“And that’s all you know! Breaking anything your hand can get to. Hear the truth now, you’re hurting yourself and until you realize that and free yourself? You’re still that Cold hearted man everyone hates” I said to him angrily and walked out of the room.
