Married to my nemesis-Chapter 89: She’s hurt

"What- what are you talking about?" Mia questioned in a stutter as Britney scorned.

" What’s wrong with your reaction? Cat caught your tongue or did I hear you stutter just a few moments ago? You heard me right, Prudence is alive, so common tell me, what are you planning on doing? Now that you’ve discovered that your obstruction in once again on her way to obstruct you from what you’re hearing to do, " she walked towards her giving her a boring look.

" If I were you, I would decide to know my place, I would realize that my stupid attitude as a kid will definitely lead me into big trouble, and if all this truth comes out to the media and let’s say to the world, what do you the law and media would want?" She moved closer to her to give her a whisper.

" They wouldn’t just stay in one place because they would be after my life,," she shift backwards to take a look at her and then she gave her a smile.

" Huhh? " Britney said as she tapped her on the shoulder.

" Dear listen carefully, I’m not just a slave you can deal with anyhow, ask your mother about who I am she’s going to tell you that I’m not any sh*t you can toy with because baby girl I know how to toy with your life and you don’t want a bad reputation, you’ve been able to save your reputation in front of Vixen but then listen to me, aren’t you scared of what might happened when your good and almighty reputation falls so drastically. Even Vixen who you’re heads over of knows the consequences of his actions when he tried to defy my words and he’s experiencing the punishment for what his so-called fiancee had done to me, so I ask of you, don’t try to play all bossy with me because I can cut down your roots within minutes and then you’ll fall severely to the ground, so are we clear on our position now? I just want to tell you, Prudence will have so many things to be concerned about but what I’m sure is among these many problems she has to solve the major problem she has to get rid of is you after all she would want to know who had decided to kill her and definitely she’s going to find out the truth, you know what, I should tell you, just prepare yourself because Prudence’s wrath is such a severe thing, you’ll probably be scared that the facial expression you’re making now, okay? "

Britney took her steps out of the room leaving Mia stunned and fearful of her words.

She was in a big mess and definitely there was no way she could dolge what she had gotten herself into.

Phoebe took a deep breath as she held the wheels, looking at the building she knew it was a long time since she had attended the place but it has to be for the best.

Coming back to her father’s building after days because of what had happened in her family she had to stay away from office work.

The door was opened for her, she had her bag taken for her by her sand then she clicked the sole of her heels on the ground majestically.

Entering the building her assistant gave her the necessary information for the schedule of the day.

"Okay," so the first thing of the day was finally get to see someone, Zayn’s mother, Cynthia.

She knew it was going to be a little bit difficult in talking to the mother of who had betrayed her but then she had to do it for the company.

She heaved a deep breath taking her steps towards the office the sole of her heels hit the ground as she pocketed her hands walking to the place where Cynthia was seated.

Nicely welcomed she sat a couch having a conversation with a woman who seemed to be her assistant.

"You seem to have quite the time," Phoebe stated walking into the room as a gesture she made sure to place a smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Cynthia took notice of Phoebe as she walked towards her giving her a handshake.

"Hi," they both chorused.

"I finally get to see your face, I heard a lot from you and exactly the plans of your company to be in partnership with our company is quite tempting isn’t it?" Phoebe couldn’t help but chuckle.

She had to make sure the project was presentable enough she would be able to accomplish her first goal, she had to make sure this project worked, at least to prove to her mum she was not the former Phoebe.

She could involve herself in business now.

"So about the project, do you accept the proposal?" Phoebe questioned, knowing it was not formal of them to come to their company but if it had to be like that she was fine with that.

"Oh about the project -" they were interrupted by the sound of the opened door, turning around it was Zayn who entered the room.

"Mum," he spoke in an indifferent tone surprised to see her.

Cynthia tried covering her gesture with a smile but then it wasn’t able to cover her frown.

"Mum, what are you doing here?" Zayn questioned his mother walking towards her as he hugged her.

"What are you talking about son, I had to meet her."

"What are you two talking about?" Phoebe interfered with a questioning expression.

It was clear in Zayn’s eyes that he was not willing to inform her what he wanted to say.

"Is about the project, Phoebe."

"What about the project?"

Cynthia was about to speak but then Zayn gripped her hand to stop her from what she wanted to say.

The action of Zayn annoyed Phoebe, what again was he willing to keep from her.

"And what might the information be about? Do, you want to reject the proposal?"

"Dear listen, I know that you and this company did your best in giving us that proposal but then we received another proposal which was more tempting and I think we’ll have a good future with, so I’m sorry to say, I have to reject the proposal, I said that I was thinking of saying it myself because I see how your family had accompanied my family and how Leah speaks about you, so I’m sorry to say, I have to deny the proposal. "

Even if Phoebe felt heartbroken about the rejection, she placed a bright smile.

" What are you saying ma’am, I’m sure that you had your reasons for rejecting our proposal," she raised her hand for a handshake.

"I’ll be willing to make future proposal with you in the future," Phoebe stated with a smile.

Cynthia smile back at her shaking her hand.

"Me too, maybe in the future will get to partner up."

" Thank you, you know what, let my assistant assist you in seeing the company, we wouldn’t be disrespectful to our guest, I’m sure you would want to know more about our company somewhere, okay? "

" Okay, I’m fine with that. "

Phoebe instructed her assistant to take Cynthia and her assistant out of the place leaving Phoebe and Zayn in the room.

The atmosphere was dead silent with thoughts wondering in there heads which didn’t want to be spoken about.

Phoebe took a deep breaths s she walked toward the water dispenser, taking a cup of water she took it till she was satisfied.

Zayn wondered what was in her mind, what could she be thinking about.

When Phoebe was done, she turned around to take a look at Zayn, her eyes showed remorse and hatred.

"Aren’t you going to get a seat Sir? You’re not the only guest I have to attend to, there are other people who are expecting me," Phoebe said in a calm tone.

Adjusting the edges of her jacket which was placed on her office outfit, she clicked her heels to leave the room but then Zayn grabbed her hand.

"What are you doing, this’ not a film you can just control someone like that," Phoebe said in a stern voice.

" I’m sorry, Phoebe. "

Phoebe scorned.

" Oh really, what are you saying sorry about Me Zayn, in this type of industry there’s always the tendency of losing some proposal so what’s the matter? "

"Phoebe I know your hurt, " she retrieved her hand from his grip clenching her jaw.

"Seriously? Now you know that I’m hurt, Zayn, I told you that in this type of industry there’s always the tendency of rejection so what’s the problem. You know what? Is not about the proposal, is about what had happened, you know for those few days I thought that I was loving someone and yes I was, I was falling in love. Do you want to know why I feel hurt, because I decided to trust you, I decided to trust someone who just wanted to use me. I was a fool once again."

" Are you sure is because of me or because of him? "

" Who are you talking about? "

" Phoebe listen to me, why didn’t you tell me you felt so guilty because of your past love? "
