Chapter 138
“Do you know who my real father is?” Jeff asked over the phone. Elizabeth paused for some seconds before she finally spoke.
“Even if I do, it’s not my place to tell you. Your mom should tell you the whole truth, then you can come to me and I will take over from there, alright” Elizabeth said and ended the call.
She turned on the ignition, before zooming off.
Meanwhile, at the Colby’s mansion, dinner was ready and Hannah had gone upstairs to call the children to come down for dinner, after which she went to Arianna’s room.
She planted a soft knock on the door and a feminine voice spoke “Come in”
She opened the door and walked. There she met Arianna going through some papers. She looked so serious while going through them.
“What paper is that?” Hannah asked and Arianna raised her head.
“These are work papers. I’m trying to validate some stuff about the company. So I need to go through this stuff and check some things.
I will be meeting up with a client tomorrow to discuss business. There are some certain things I need to be sure of before I meet up with the client” Arianna said and Hannah nodded in response.
“I was about to come call you for dinner,” Hannah said as she stared at her.
“I will join you guys in a bit,” she said and Hannah nodded in response. With that, she walked out of the room.
Immediately Hannah left, and it wasn’t quite long before the door opened again.
“Hannah I…..” Arianna paused as she raised her head and to her surprise, she saw Robert staring at her with a smile on his face.
Arianna frowned.
“What are you doing in my room, you should leave now,” Arianna said as she stood up, arranged the papers, and put them in her bag.
“Hey, we ain’t fighting, alright,” Robert said calmly as he stood staring at her.
“What do you want, Robert?” Arianna asked as she maintained a straight face.
“You know my brother was really stupid for trying to kill you.
You are a beautiful woman, Arianna. You are what every man craves for.
I still wonder why Wilson tried to kill you” Robert paused and clicked his tongue.
“You can’t blame him, has anyone ever told you that my mom is pretty good at manipulating people? That woman is bitch” Robert whispered with a serious face.
“Same way she’s manipulating you now and using you,” Arianna said as she moved towards the door and opened it.
“You should leave now,” she said while holding the door’s knob.
Robert heaved a sigh of relief and moved towards the door, about to leave, when he paused and turned to Arianna.
“Come to think of it,” he said as he moved closer to her and touched her hair.
“You are single, I am single. I know you are rich, trust me, I am too, even though I have spent a lot of time in prison, I’m still rich and I can afford you and treat you the way Wilson never did.
We can be a couple. A power couple at that. We can achieve great things and get revenge on Wilson for what he did to you. what do you say?” Robert said and Arianna stared at him disgustedly and slapped his hands off her hair.
“You son of bitch!!” Arianna muttered as she stared at the man in front of him. He sure had the guts to stand in front of her and spit trash.
“Get our Robert, before I lose my cool,” Arianna said angrily, and Robert laughed.
“Common Camilla quit acting hard to get, I know you like me too. Just say yes to………” Arianna didn’t let him finish his speech when a hot slap landed on his cheeks.
Robert’s eyes changed immediately, as the look on his face was replaced with anger.
“How dare you hit me?” Robert muttered angrily.
“And I will do it again,” Arianna said looking so fearless as she stared at Robert straight in his eyes.
“You wouldn’t want to………” Arianna gave him another sounding slap again, this time twice cutting off his speech.
“You think I’m that woman you tried to force yourself on years ago?
No, I’m not that weak Camilla Colby anymore.
A lot has changed about me and in case you don’t know who I am, let me introduce myself.
My name is Arianna Mackenzie, the CEO of Mackenzie Co. Go out there and ask about me, I bet you would think twice before doing or saying anything stupid.
Don’t try me, Robert, or else I’m going to ruin your life. Now get out!” Arianna who was looking fearless voiced out while Robert stared at the woman looking speechless.
He wondered if it was the Camilla Colby he knew years ago, was the one speaking.
“Are you threatening me?” Robert asked, still surprised.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth, who had just gotten home, entered the house, walked past the dining room and saw Hannah and the kids at the dining table eating. She wondered why Brandon and Arianna weren’t with them.
She stared at them and looked away before climbing the stairs to her room.
She walked down the hallway and was about to walk past Arianna’s room when she saw Robert staring at her with his eyes looking so red and there were five hands on his face.
“Robert” Elizabeth called and held his hands pulling him away from Arianna’s room.
She wondered what he was doing in her room and what had transpired.
“Thank goodness, mommy’s boy, your mommy is here, now go to her, and you…” Arianna paused and turned to Elizabeth
“Tell your son to stay away from me” she voiced out and locked the door in their faces.
“What were you doing in her room? What if Brandon had seen you?” Elizabeth asked worriedly. She was worried Robert was going to ruin all her plans.
Robert walked past her and walked to his room. He stood at the fireplace looking so angry.
Elizabeth, who was following him, opened the door and walked in.
“Robert, I know how angry you are but I can’t have you go back to prison.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
I have got everything under control. I have got a plan to help you get back everything, Wilson stole from you. We are so close at getting everything we’ve always wished for” Elizabeth said as she stood in front of her son.
Robert sighed and hugged her.
“I’m sorry Mom, but I can’t sit and watch you ruin my plans.
You are a self-serving bitch who only loves herself and I know whatever you are doing is not for me but for yourself” Robert said as he forcefully pulled away from the hug and held Elizabeth by her neck, then he pushed her head in the fireplace and let her face burn.
He pulled her out from the fireplace and pushed her to the ground.
He cleaned his hands and walked out of the room, he then left the house like nothing had happened.
