Kaya POV

My heart pounds hard in my chest, not just sadness plastered on my face but anger as well.

This family has no idea what is about to hit them, and I will hit them hard.

A smile crawls up my lips, it's enough to shock her, she lifts her eyebrows at me, “Well I'm waiting. Do it now!” she yells back at me

I shrug placing the paper on the side table, I quickly sign and hand her the piece of paper, “There, but don't come crawling back to me” I shake my head sadly

She laughs, “A lowlife like you? A starving woman we took off the streets?” She continues walking back to the couch

I roll my eyes grabbing the hilt of my bag.

“Stop!!” she yells just as I turn my back

I freeze just as the door opens, Tom and his swooping brown hair walk in, his blue eyes twinkling with happiness as the woman on his arm giggles at his stupid joke.

His face changes as soon as they land on me, “You are still here” he narrows his eyes

“Of course the bitch is still here, she's trying to leech off you honey”. Riley’s perky voice fills my ears first.

“The ring!” Tom’s mother yells from behind, “You have to return the wedding ring, that was a family heirloom” She blocks my view soon, Tom and Riley standing behind with snarky smiles

I look down at the ring, he had proposed to me in the park, I had always wanted a proposal like that under the rain and he made my dreams come true.

And now he snatches it right under my feet. “FINE” I yell, pulling off the ring, I walk past his mother, the bags dragging behind me, “Here Tom, I hope you don’t live to regret this moment” I slam the ring on his chest.

“And the family car key” Tom’s mom continues

I drop the key on the table slamming the door behind their backs, they probably think I have nowhere else to go, no job, no money, and no car.

My fingers slide across my phone screen as I try to reach my uncle.

His face pops up on the screen, his grey beard rising with a smile. “Hello my pumpkin, how are you?” he quips and before I can answer, he turns the camera to my uncle, a golf club in his hand, and a span of green behind them.

“Your uncle and I are at the private golf course, meet us there?” He lifts a brow at me.

I hide the tears in my eyes, “Yes Daddy, please send a car for me” I reply immediately sliding into the elevator.

“See you in a bit pumpkin” he quips before the call ends.

A few minutes later, an exotic car parks right in front of me, I slide into the car and the driver takes me to the golf course

My arms wrap around my body as the cool breeze gusts against my skin, I spot my father and uncle far away and I send them a wave.

As I walk towards them I spot my reflection, long dark hair and bright brown eyes will best describe me, but I guess that was not enough for Tom as he has a blonde hanging from his arm now.

“Hey pumpkin, we are glad you are here, How is that bum of your husband?” My uncle welcomes me first, pulling me into a hug.

The tears finally fall, in the arms of the two people I trust the most, the only family I've known since I was born as both their wives died in a terrible accident just a few months after I was born.

“Oh pumpkin, what's wrong?” My father pulls me into his arms as well and my body shakes with tears, shaking heavily at the question

“What did that fool Tom do?” my uncle ask behind me, his voice gruff

“Did he hurt you?” My dad adds roughly pulling me back to scan my face.

“He betrayed me, Dad!!” I cry out, “He dumped me for another woman”

“Do I have to call my men?” my uncle snaps from behind me, his voice tinted with anger

I shake my head, my lips breaking out in a slight smile, "Don't worry uncle, I will deal with Tom myself” I shake my head.

He nods, ” How about we drive you home, It's been a while since we had dinner together”

I nod, “I have to grab some things from the football club first”

“We will drive you” My dad perks up and they lead me to the car.

The drive to the club is short and soon I'm alone in the locker room, my fingers clutching the last of my belongings in Tom’s locker.

I hug holding the bag to my chest, “Tom whinely you will regret even betraying me” I mutter the words to myself.

The car park is empty except for my uncle resting on the black SUV.

I wave at him when a hand grips my wrist, almost throwing me to the floor. I stumble and catch myself turning my eyes to my assailant.

“Riley” I narrow my eyes at her prim and proper form

She smirks, her eyes moving to my uncle behind me, “Oh this is good, so you've been cheating on Tom this entire time?” she laughs her brows raised

“And with an old man, a sugar daddy?” she laughs, her voice vibrating in my ears.

I ignore her, spinning around to leave but she grabs me by my hair. I grip her wrist and throw her off me, shocking her.

Her eyes narrow, “How dare you come here and try to assault me Kaya!!” she cries out, her lips shaky.

“You come here to my father's club and especially with your sugar daddy…Have some shame Kaya” she rolls her eyes crossing her arms over the other. She takes a threatening step towards me.

“Stay off my turf, Kaya…Tom now belongs to me, we will get married and we will live happily ever after” Her voice turns cold, every sound bleeding with boldness

I roll my eyes, “If he did what he did to me Riley, imagine what he will do to you” I snap turning around, my ponytail whips her face.

I hear her huff right before u slip into the car

“Are you okay?” my uncle lifts a brow at me

“I will be fine Uncle” I send him a soft smile signifying we should leave.

“You know, your uncle just upgraded his lab, you should check it out, I know you loved working in his lab so much pumpkin,” My dad says next to me

“Yes Kaya, do you still specialize in robotics? Being with that boy so long has not dulled your brain right?” my uncle laughs from the front seat

I shake my head, “I will visit the lab tonight uncle, just get me a key card and I will be there”

He nods and soon my home fills my vision, it's bigger than anything Tom will ever see or experience in his life.

“I’m glad I left him behind, he would have been a complete gold digger” I shake my head as the maid greets me at the door.

“Welcome back Miss Kaya” They bow slightly, taking my bags.

“I’m glad you see sense now Kaya, have a shower, wear some nice clothes and we can have dinner” my father ushers me up the stairs.

The night is unforgettable, just like it used to be, my father, uncle, and I. We have dinner and we discuss what will happen going forward.

“I think you should run the club,” My uncle says next to me as we slide into the elevator of his new lab

The building is highly futuristic, and high tech, everything seems like we are in 3045

“Now yet uncle, there are other jobs I want to explore first before taking the mantle from my father” I lift a brow at him

The doors part open and we are immersed in a semi-dark room, blue and purple strobing lights, and glass rooms that scream high tech.

“Woah uncle this is impressive” I walk further into the room and right at the end is a line of robots on the wall.

They look interestingly realistic, “These could fool anyone, What type of skins are they” I turn to him, my eyes fading back to the wall of robots

I count 5 in total, my mouth still open in shock

“They were quite expensive Kaya, but we have not been able to get them to work the way we want them to” he sends me a side look

“That's where you come in” he bumps me slightly with his shoulder, his other hand revealing a lab coat.

“I want to welcome you to Williams Tech as the head engineer and scientist for the robotics theme, if it pleases you” he lifts a brow at me, waiting for an answer

I turn to the robots and just like that something clicks.

My revenge.

A smirk graces my lips, I know how to destroy Tom.

I will have to build the perfect quarterback star.
