Chapter Fourty - one : Kims Mom (2/2)

But I didn't give up, no-one mistreats me and goes scot free. I finally managed to throw a blow which caught him on the side of his mouth and his lips began to bleed.

A satisfied grin plastered my face but it seemed to have agitated him cause he released a feral growl and tried to reach for me but a warning from his other comrade halted his progress.

”Easy on the young miss ” The guy who did the driving said but Mr HRH simply sneered and grabbed my waist amidst my protest and threw me roughly over his shoulder, again.

Who said this position was romantic?

I moaned in pain when my stomach impacted on his hard shoulder . What was this guy made of - rocks?

I knew he was torturing me cause he didn't slow down through out the bumpy ride until I found myself in the living room where the whole family was assembled already.

This time, he let me down gently unlike the previous time and did a simple bow to my family who nodded in response and left.

I turned to leave but was blocked by the other bodyguard, so I gritted my teeth in frustration and was forced to face my family.

”Is that how you greet your family you haven't met in years! ” The so-called dad roared as soon as he saw the contempt in my eyes.

”Family? ” I scoffed ” How amusing ”

”Yo-you! ” He tried to speak but Kim's mom was quick to interfere.

”Darling, remember your health ” She reminded him tenderly ”Also, Maya just arrived, you don't have to be so hard on her ” She added and my eyes flew open.

When did Kim's mother become such a good actress?

”Yes daddy, mom's right. Maya must be stressed out from the journey ” Kim contributed this time and I felt the urge to throw up, their act was so sickening.

I stared at the drama going on and thanked God I looked nothing like them.

Kim was an exact photocopy of her mom except she took her father's eyes. She had same long dark hair, height and mannerism, infact they could be mistaken as sisters once out in the public , since her mom takes good care of her skin.

It was quite funny since Kim took her father's gray eyes while I took exactly her mom's black eyes. That was the only thing I know reminds me of her whenever I look into the mirror.

”Sister ” Kim called destroying my thoughts . She approached me, moved to take my hand and though I felt the urge to tear my hand away, I decided to go along with her facade.

”I'm sorry for the words I said to you that day” She apologized with this sincere gaze that would've fooled me too if not for the fact I knew this was all an act.

I tried to speak but she put in

”But how could you say you won't help us ? the company ? when you're in the right position to do so?” She asked leaving me stunned.

My jaw tightened and I glared at her.

”That will be discussed over dinner ” Kim's mom announced and I inhaled sharply, this people were not going to let me be.
