Chapter 8: "Prepare For My Wrath"

TRACY'S POV:

I have a new strategy on how to make Dante regret what he did to me.

I was used as a bet five years ago. Why not make him a bet, five years later.

“Dante, get ready to be used as a bet by me”. I mumbled under my breath and prepared to go and see my son before going for the shooting for the star that would represent my brand.

My son has not been close to me ever since he started going to school.

He always asks after his father because other children have their children with them but he doesn't. 

And I know he wouldn't understand anything at this young age if I were to tell him how his father treated me five years ago.

He lives with my father in his mansion. He also has a nanny who takes care of him.

His condition is that when I find his father then he will come back to live with me.

I go to see him often but he always refuses to see me. But I won't give up on him. 

I am sure that when he grows up he will understand things better. 

“Alvin, please open the door for me please”. Alvin ran into his room and locked the door when he saw me entering the mansion. 

My father wasn't at home. He must have gone out for something important. 

“Let me talk to him, Madam”. His nanny, Maggret said to me.

“Alvin, my boy, mummy is gone now, you can open the door for me”. She said in a low voice, enough to coax Alvin.

It wasn't up to a minute, I heard the creaking sound of the door and behold my son stood with tears in his eyes.

I stooped to his level and hugged him with tears in my eyes.

He tried his best to push me away but he wasn't able to do so.

“Nanny Mag, you lied to me, you won't be my friend anymore. I told you that I don't want to see her, she isn't my mother”. He said with so much hatred in his tone.

But I still held him tightly in a hug. He struggled until he bit my shoulders.

I pushed him off because of the pain and he stuck out his tongue at me.

I slapped him out of anger.

“I have had enough of your silly behaviour. Do you know what your Dad made me pass through? He doesn't even know that you exist and you are here yearning for someone that doesn't even love you, then pushing the one that loves you away”.

He cried out and ran inside again and locked the door.

I crumbled to the marbled floor in tears.

My anger wasn't supposed to be for my child but Dante and all the people that caused me pain.

“I am sorry son, I didn't mean to”. I said to him with a broken voice. 

“Get the hell out!”. He yelled out.

“Madam, he is angry right now, I think it's best for you to leave him alone until he calms down”. Maggret said while placing her hand on my shoulder. 

I cleaned my tears and nodded at her before standing up to leave his room door.

Just then my phone rang, my assistant was the one calling me. I cleared my throat before picking up the call.

“Yes, what's the matter?”. I said, sounding more aloof and cold.

“Good day Miss Whitmore, the girls for the brand representation are here, but one of them named Ava seems to be making trouble. She said she was chosen to endorse the brand and not to be interviewed about the endorsement”.

I smirked at the news, I remember that Ava chatted me up but she doesn't know that Tracy is the same as Whitmore.

Just like what happened to Anna, she came prepared for a business deal but didn't know that I was the one in charge.

This news has brightened up my mood. I would like to have fun with Ava and make sure that I anger her to death.

“Alright, I have heard you, I am coming there right now. And ignore Ava if you can”.

“Yes, Miss Whitmore”. She replied before I ended the call.

And Ava's call came immediately. I smiled as I picked up the call.

“Hello, Miss Whitmore, I am here at the site for the shoot but someone who claims to be your assistant said the star that would represent your brand is not chosen yet, I tried my best to explain to her that I have sealed the deal with you but she is refusing to believe me”. Ava whined as she laid her complaint.

I was enjoying every bit of the drama. 

“I am on my way, wait for me”.

“Alright”.

Ava, my weapon against you is Dante, just prepare for my wrath.
