Chapter 22
“What a mess,”
Luciano said to himself, hissing in annoyance as he tried to forget the event that took place today, non of which were in his favor, honestly, there was a lot of things he wished to change about the whole of today, everything, nothing went according to his plans and he was just too angry right now and couldn’t keep the thoughts away, the whole party was a fail, not only did the crazy sheik snub him but the annoying man was smiling and dining with his enemies, Miko and that bastard he used to call his best friend, he couldn’t stand the whole parade of clowns and had left only an hour after he got there, you would have thought when he returns those losers that work for him would be back but nope, not a word from them until a few minutes ago when they finally found her.
“Fucking psychos,”
He said as he toasted his glass of wine away and walked out of his home bar, alcohol wasn’t doing it for him tonight, he walked to his office, he had other business to attend to but nothing works when he is angry and it couldn’t be helped. Next thing is to calm the fuck down and restart, he walked out of his office again.
He heard them enter the house before he saw them, he didn’t even know who to direct his anger to first, his men or the witch who played the bigger part in ruining his day, well that was decided when he saw her, they had her tied and her mouth taped, and from how she looked, they hit her too.
“Who tied her up and why is her mouth sealed?”
He asked and both Sloan and martin stopped walking and stared at each other, the witch looked like she has been through a lot, why would they tie her up?
“Lydia?”
Luciano called for his housekeeper who ran out of the room she had been towards them.
“Take her upstairs and remove the rope and the tape from her mouth, keep the door lock, she is a crazy person,”
He instructed and Lydia hurriedly did as she was told but the witch struggled, making it a little hard for Lydia to take her away, he didn’t interfere and watched them go while trying to calm his anger towards his men as much as he could, no way did they tie a woman up, no way did they lay their hands on her, he had a rule and they knew his rule, no matter what, never hit a woman, especially one that can’t defend herself, yeah, he knew it contradicted how he treated women in general but still, a rule was a rule no matter how useless that gender was, hitting them was a crime he couldn’t forgive.
“Follow me,”
He instructed as he walked towards his home office, he didn’t bother to look back to see if they followed because he knew they would.
“Who tied her up?’
He asked again when they entered his office.
“I did boss, she was being too loud and it was drawing attention to us,”
Sloan said and Luciano turned and aimed a punch in his face that sent him flying backward.
“What? She was screaming? Attention? What attention? Because I could have thought no one will look your way enough to care if she was shouting, way kind of lame excuse is that? Aren’t you ashamed? You can’t hold one woman down? I would be ashamed if I were you, if I were the lots of you,”
He yelled delivering another punch to his face.
“Now, who hit her?”
He asked even though he already had an idea of who would do it, Martin, the man was good at his job, well not all the time but still good but Luciano was done with him, he had a bad record of physically abusing women and this was the height of it, he touched his woman, yeah, the wench was his woman until he decides she is not anymore.
“Who hit her?”
He asked again, looking from one man to the other, he could hear his other men who had accompanied these two losers panic aside and they had every reason to panic because they were all going to get punished for what happened today.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
“I said who the fuck hit a powerless and defenseless woman that you lot could have easily brought to me without harm? I never gave the instructions to hit her, but even tie her up, who hit her?”
He asked again.
“I am sorry boss but she was b***”
Luciano didn’t let him finish the sentence, he launched a punch at him, making sure to hit him where it hurt the most, he didn’t stop at that, he was livid, beyond control.
“What? She tried to what? How many are you fools compared to that tiny bitch? You couldn’t resist hitting her? What have I been saying about hitting women? I warned you the last time but it seems you don’t value your job, well guess what? You don’t even have a job anymore, I don’t want to see your face again or you will be dead,”
He yelled each word with an accompanied punch until his face bled, he finally let him go and straightened his back, he turned to Sloan who backed away, he thought of firing him too but decided not to.
“Take him away and take everything that he got from working here, all the privileges he enjoys, if he owes any debt make sure he pays everything, you know the way it goes and I don’t want to see him ever or you will face me too,”
He instructed as he walked out of the office, leaving the two men to deal with themselves, when he opened the door, the men there all stood alert, he ignored them initially and started walking away but turned back to them.
“You all are excused for today but if what happened today ever repeats itself again, you will get what you are asking for, I don’t want to see anyone of you right now so out of my house,”
He said and walked away as they echoed their apologies and promises that it won’t repeat itself, he climbed the stairs heading to the room he knew Lydia would have taken the little witch to, he had scores to settle with her too, ain’t no way she was going to get away with the stunt she pulled today, it was her fault everything didn’t work out today.
“You can’t leave, please, you will get yourself in trouble,”
He heard Lydia’s worried voice say, moments before the door to the room flew open and the crazy bitch ran out, she stopped for a moment when she saw him and right after, ran past him, he turned and watched her run away, there was no need to run after her, she would find out by herself that there was no way out of here except he allows it and he wasn’t about to let her go, he walked down slowly behind her as she ran passed his confused men who were still in the hallway, he signaled for them to let her be, she would figure it out by herself and he was here to watch her be miserable, punishment, yeah, something like that.
