Alicia and Taylor left Joy's room and went in the study.
Taylor gestured for Alicia to take a sit right across from him.
"Lovey what were you doing in Joy's room? You know it won't look good in people's eyes if they saw you together like that." She said with a sad face.
"Listen Alicia, you are a very beautiful and wonderful person, but I can't be with you."
"What do you mean you can't be with?!" She shouted and got up from her sit.
"Alicia I can't marry you because of that contract, I'll look for other ways to make our company stronger. I don't wanna hurt you because I don't love you" he tried to point it out without being rude
" You do know this marriage will strengthen our companies ties. Your company will be more known through out the world. Whatever you want I will provide. name it". She tried to persuade him.
" That's the thing. You don't seem to understand my point here Alicia." Taylor said as he stood and held her shoulders. " You"mom?..and I think that Joy is seducing my Taylor..." Alicia added fuel to the fire and sobbed softly."Whaaat!" Mrs Young shouted ignoring the people around her, now she was extremely angry , she hasn't like Joy from the very first encounter, and now this? How dare that little girl get in the way of her plans. Taylor was known to be cold hearted and much as girls tried to seduce him, it never worked, so what did this silly clumsy girl do to seduce her handsome son? Is this the reason he has been going against her wishes these months? Oh hell no. That girl has got to go."Yes Mom it's the truth, I walked on them being very close, only heavens know what would have happened if I didn't go there at that time.. " she looked up to see if Mrs young was listening and more tears dropped from her eyes seeing that Mrs Young seemed remorseful."Or.. what they already did" she covered her face and cried."Can you imagine she even chased me out of her room

"who are you and what do you want?!" Amber commanded even though though fear could clearly be heard in her voice. She tried to look tough even though she was a wreck deep inside her."Oh you are a tough one hmm, I love tough ones especially when I crack them. Don't you just love that?" The second man spoke looking at her from head to toe then looking at the third man like seeking for approval from him."Yes I love that very much, and this one will be very fun am sure" he responded while licking his lips and walking towards her, he squatted to her lever then started brushing his finger against her face like rubbing dew from a leaf."Don't you dare you psycho!"

"Good morning miss and welcome back,you got us worried there for a while." She heard a sweet voice say. Trying to sit up and look around, she found that she was in the hospital.. strange, who brought her here? How did she not die? She wondered."How did I get here miss?" She asked confused."Your boyfriend brought you here miss, do you remember what happened to you?"Everything that happened to her flashed before her eyes and her heart felt heavy, she wanted to cry out loud but couldn't, her eyes just couldn't let her shade a tear. In that moment she decided one thing and that was to make her father pay, to make him so miserable, so much he will beg her to kill him. That naive little girl Amber Garcia died the day her father sold her.Wait. Did she say boyfriend?"Miss what is your name?" The nurse asked with a concerned look on her face noticing that the girl in front of her kept quiet and in deep thought."Oh my name is Joy... Joy Benson, please
"What do you want to eat?" Taylor asked, breaking the silence while getting up ready to leave."Mr Young,..thank you for everything, but I have some questions to ask you if you don't mind." She said motioning for him to sit."Hey, c'mon,do I look that old? Call me Taylor and we will talk some other time when you are well. Now you have to eat and get better.""Actually am not..""Yes you are and so am I , we are both going to eat. Wait for me, am going to get us something to eat.""But ..." He left before she finished talking not giving her room to say no to him.When he came back, they eat and chatted the whole day, well Taylor did most of the talking.

She suddenly recalled all she went through with those men and she started to panic. She pushed him hard away from her, she was feeling breathless and was sweating."What's wrong Joy? What happened? Talk to me please!""Please leave me!" She screamed at him.He tried to get close to her trying to comfort her and he saw hatered in her eyes as well as fear."Please don't come close to me" she pleaded as she was taking steps back."Am sorry I'll leave ." He said while walking out of the room. This incident made him think back on why she was raped, he couldn't bring himself to ask her what exactly happened but he thought it was about time they talked about it. He decided to talk to her in the morning when she has calm down.Joy on the other hand was pacing back and forth in her room. Why did this have to happen to her? She decided to take a cold bathe to calm herself down. When she was done, she lay on her bed looking up the ceiling thinking of w

He shouted trying to wake her up, she was sweating and turning in her sleep.He got some water and splashed her ,she was finally awake and breathing heavily."Joy, calm down it was only a dream... Calm down am here.." he said trying to comfort her, he tried to hug her and comfort her but she became restless."Get away from!..." She screamed moving away from him and baaam! She fell on the ground."Joy...""Leave me alone please.." she said trying to calm herself down."Okay, I'll be in my room if you need anything.
"I LOVE YOU JOY..AM IN LOVE WITH YOU!"There was pin drop silence. ' flashback'After Joy chased him out of her room, he decided to occupy himself in a lot of work to try and forget about the whole situation that had occurred. After work he went back home and lay in his bed.He was staring at the ceiling, drained and depressed about what happened the previous night. His day had not been too good that day.
