Chapter 4

After five years.

“Sorry, but you can’t get in,” the security guard said.

“Who do you think you are? This is my family’s empire. Who are you to stop me?” Rosa asked arrogantly, making the security guard frown.

“I am sorry, Miss Sawyer, but the president is currently busy, and he has instructed not to allow anyone into his office. If you have to see him, wait for him over there,” the security guard said as he pointed at a sofa in the corridor, making Rosa’s face darken.

She wondered why, even when that bitch had vanished, Travis refused to marry her. She even had his child, but he didn’t treat her any better. Only when she used the child would she get a chance to see him, but she was tired of it. She was the mother of his heir. Why then didn’t anyone give her the respect she deserved? Just thinking of all these made her angry.

“Why is Marcus?” She took her phone and called someone.

“Madam, Marcus is currently in school,” the person on the other side said nervously.

“What! Shouldn’t he be homeschooled? Why is he in school? What if he is bullied? He is the Parker's heir and shouldn’t study with the other kids for goodness sake!” she shouted, making the guards look at her and shake their heads.

They wondered where their madam went, as she was kind and caring to all, unlike this one, who was so bossy and thought that she was at the highest peak of the pyramid. Didn’t she understand that other people were on top of her?

“The boss said that he shouldn’t be spoiled and should learn how to get along with others,” the other person on the other side said when she had been told.

“Dammit!” Rosa cursed as she understood what Travis was trying to do.

Most of the time, she came and wasn’t allowed to get in. She would send someone to fetch Marcus and use him to get in, but now! She couldn’t go to school and start commanding them as they all looked down on her. Everyone does, as they call her a homewrecker who ruined her own sister’s family. But to her, Elaine was the one who took the man she loved; she was the homewrecker. She couldn’t understand why, even after Elaine left, she still had to leave under her shadow.

“What are you doing here? Do you think that this is a marketplace place you can make noise as you feel like?” Travis asked as he walked towards her with a cold face, and Rosa trembled.

She really feared Travis, especially when she recalled what Travis had done to her when the reporters were outside five years ago. All always felt that if she didn’t say that she was pregnant, she would have been killed and her body disposed of. Right now, she really wanted to be with him, but didn’t dare get close to him.

“This isn’t the Sawyers Group, where you are spoiled and can behave however you want. This place doesn’t belong to your family. The earlier you understand that the better. Don’t come here to disturb my people while they are working!” Travis said coldly before passing her as if he didn’t know that she was there for him.

Seeing this, Rosa gritted her teeth as she thought that if it weren’t for Travis's powerful background, she would never follow him like that with that kind of ill and cold temper. However, she really didn’t have any other choice as Travis was the richest in the city, and she couldn’t look for a man whose background was lower than his.

“But Travis, Marcus, he was….” Rosa started saying hurriedly when she saw him walking to his office, but Travis's personal assistant placed a tablet in her hands. When she looked at the screen, she saw her son running and laughing with the other kids of his age.

“Miss Sawyer, the Marcus is fine as you can see, so kindly leave and let the boss do his work. Every minute you waste on him, he loses millions, so I advise you to be careful with what you do!” the assistant said, making Rosa’s face turn pale.

She now understood why Marcus was taken to school. As he lived with her at the Sawyers' mansion, she could do whatever she wanted and even use Marcus, but now it seemed that Travis was monitoring every one of Marcus’ moves in school.

“Why are you doing this to me! I am his mother!” she asked loudly, making everyone misunderstand and look at Travis with a frown and disapproving gaze on their faces, making Travis halt his steps.

“Who refused that you are his mother? But do you think of the kid? All you think is how you can use him, use him to get in here, use him to see me, use him to force me to have dinner with you. Let the kid breathe for goodness' sake! He needs to be out there with kids of his age and not all of this propaganda you are trying to create! Rosa, don’t provoke me or think I don’t know what you did that night. Try disturbing me when I am working and you will regret it!” Travis said coldly, and the last sentence to her ears so that only she could hear him before turning around and leaving.

Rosa’s face turned white, especially when she thought of Travis's last words, but she didn’t believe it, as how could he be silent and let her always get what she wanted? She believed that it was only a matter of time before she got him under her thumb. She looked at Travis’ office, which was shut, and a cold glint appeared on her face before turning to leave, as she was fed up with how everyone was looking at her.
