Chapter 4 ✨HER HATRED ✨

He threw it all at Clara's face. ____ "You!!!" Clara shouted with shocked, wide eyes. Jemima faced them, and when she saw what just happened, she smiled widely. "Good riddance, serves you right, slut" she laughed. "Shit, I'm soaked completely" Maxwell muttered, checking out himself. By now, chairman got to Tatiana already, and he helped her up. Her face is so red as a result of the hot pasta it got dipped in, and her hand is bleeding slightly as a result of the bite. "I called for a family dinner! Not this!" He shouted.

"You should blame your worthless wife and her daughter for starting what they could'nt finish!" Jemima shouted back. "Can't believe this" Clara muttered, dabbing her face with her palm to wipe the water. "How come you're wet?" Chairman asked with wide eyes, rushing to her too. "He poured water on me!" She replied, pointing at Maxwell. "How dare you!" Chairman raged, rushing to him, but surprisingly, Jemima blocked him. "You don't touch him! Your wife started it! Can't you see he's wet too? You think he's Lina who's sit and do nothing? Now you know better" she said. "Jemima... "I look forward to the next dinner, bye!" She glared at everyone of them before leaving the house with Maxwell. "Jemima!! F**k that b**ch!" Tatiana screamed out. "I'm so sorry baby, let's do something about your red face" Clara held her. "Do you now see the reason why I deserve to be the CEO instead of her? She doesn't deserve that position dad! She has no trait for it! Dad you have to step her down right now!" Tatiana shouted desperately. "Get your face treated" chairman said simply and left the dinning room. "Dad!!" She screamed. "Calm down!" Clara made her sit. "Don't tell me to calm! It has always been my dream to take over Skyline, but it has always been that b**ch taking everything from me!" "I'll talk to chairman, just chill" Clara stroked her hair . ••• Jemima's car is still on the road with Maxwell driving smoothly. Jemima is sitting at the back, smiling each time she remembers what just happened at the mansion. She kept up the smile till it turned into a loud laughter when she couldn't take it anymore. "F**k! Tonight could pass as my best night" she grinned, covering her face with her palms as she laughed again. Maxwell remained mute, but she suddenly leaned forward... "Hey you, i never knew you're this smart, I think we're gonna get along" she said. "Why? Cos I poured water on your stepmom?" He replied. "Why else? I love people who give no room for trash" she replied, and he smiled. "How are you gonna pay me?" He asked. "First let's take care of your wet shirt, stop the car" she replied, and he obeyed immediately. Surprisingly, they're in front of a store. "Go in and get yourself new something to wear" she said, giving her her debit card. "How many debit cards do you have?" He asked. "Ten? Twenty?" She giggled, and he smiled again. "So... you're jovial like this" "I'm jovial to those who deserve it" she replied. He looked at the card and sighed. "I can buy myself new clothes, I hate favours from the rich" he said "Really? Then go get it Mr. Limited edition" she said, and he smiled before leaving the car. He crossed the road and entered the store. Jemima rested back on her seat and got her phone. She went to The Diamonds blog and searched for the video of Lina's bullying at the party, but she couldn't find it. Lina must have deleted it so she wouldn't see it cos she's also an admin, she handles the blog with her. "That stupid girl, so she lied to me about her red cheek" she muttered and left the blog to go to her iG page. She's got the highest number of followers in Paris, no doubt. 65Million followers isn't a joke, though she's mostly followed by fellow rich company men and women in the world, the rest are upcoming celebs who're her wannabees. She only makes live streams in her office once a week, then the rest are whenever she goes to the beach or club on weekends or decide to upload her luxurious properties like golden jewelries and expensive designers at home on her feed. Her net worth is 450M, also the highest too, so it's worth the envy and hate she receives from Tatiana who's nowhere near her. "It takes talent to be as perfect as I am, no one is more perfect" she smiled, deciding to snap a picture since she's so happy right now. She pulled five cutely different facial expressions and snapped the five selfies which she uploaded on IG immediately with the caption_HAPPIEST NIGHT THIS WEEK, STAY HAPPY. Within one minute, she got more than 10M likes, and she smiled as she began reading comments. 🥰 I love you Jemima! 🥰 I seriously can't wait to grow up and be like you, role model 🥰 You're my muse! 🥰 You deserve everything you have! 🥰 I love your knuckle rings, please can you tell me where you got them from in your next Livestream? 🥰 Your lipstick, please what brand is it! 🥰 What facial product do you use? How can you look so young at 28? 🥰 Can you give me tips on how to get a flawless skin like yours? Her head was swelling as she read millions of comments, but then she suddenly felt chilly, and her lids moved before she suddenly looked up. She looked around the car, but no one is in sight. "Why does it feel like someone is watching me?" She muttered. She was about to return to her phone when Maxwell arrived. "Took you long enough" she said when she heard the car door opening. She looked up, and immediately she saw him, her eyes widened. His suit is gone, he's currently wearing a white shirt on black pants! He even looks more handsome with the rough hair. "I have a distinct taste, so I took my time looking for what I like" he replied, and that made her blink before looking away from him. "Whatever, we should go drink" she said. "Drink?" He asked. "Yeah, told you I was gonna thank you for the drama at the mansion" she replied. "Oh...can we shift it to another day? I have to go swimming practice right now" he replied, and she blinked. "You're a swimmer?" "Yes" "Cool, drive me home then" she replied. Maxwell smiled slightly before revving the car engines back to life . He drove away from the road, and Jemima returned to reading comments on her new post till he got to her house. They stepped out together, and she handed her the car keys. "Goodnight, boss" he said freely and turned back, walking away. Jemima waited till he went out of sight before going in too. She met just Dolores in the living room. "Francesca is asleep already" she said. "I never asked about her" Jemima replied. "You know she'd never sleep without seeing you unless something is up... she's got headache, and she cried a lot after she was sent home from school" Dolores said. "So?" Jemima replied. "Madam!" "Look Dolores, I'm currently having an happy night, don't even try to ruin it" Jemima said and started going upstairs. "I dunno what she did to you, but can't you just forgive her? That adorable girl loves you so much" Dolores suddenly said, and she stopped. "Wanna get fired? Then say one more word" she said and finally left. •••

Maxwell boarded the bus straight to the pool hall, and he met Warren waiting in front of it already. He's talking to Molly on phone, so Maxwell had to wait. Molly is his girlfriend. "Yeah, I can skip my part-time job tommorow, we should go on a date" he said. "No, I don't think I'm in for a date throughout this week, let's make it next week" she replied. "We've been shifting it since last month, why are you so busy?" Warren asked. "It's not my fault Warren" Molly replied. "I know, just take care and don't overwork" Warren said. "Sure baby! Bye!" Molly replied. "I love you, bye!" Warren hung up and kissed the phone. "Wow! This love is crazy" Maxwell laughed. "Stop it, you should get a girlfriend Mell" Warren replied. "Let's just go, Molly's sweetheart" Maxwell said, and Warren smiled as they went in together, but on getting to the main door... "You're not allowed entry" the guard on standby said. "What!" Maxwell said surprisingly. "Don't you know him? He's... "Limited Mell, yes but there's nothing I can do if I have orders to not let you in" he interrupted. "Orders from who?" Maxwell scoffed. "From the almighty Lincoln" Lincoln's voice said behind him, and he turned. Lincoln punched him on the face immediately, and Maxwell staggered, getting a cut on his cheek. "How dare you push me into the pool? You think you'd get away with it? No one messes with Lincoln Perry!" Lincoln gnarled. "Bastard!" Maxwell roared and returned the punch immediately. "@sshole!" Lincoln punched him back. Maxwell made to return the punch again, but Warren held him back. "Mell please, you know who his dad is, please don't... "I don't care!! He started it the shit!" Maxwell shouted angrily and freed himself... He was about to return the second punch when the chief guard appeared. "What's happening here!" He demanded. "None of your business, old cargo" Lincoln spat disrespectfully. "He restricted Mell from entering" Warren reported. "No swimmer can restrict a fellow swimmer, so open the door" the chief guard told the other guard. "My dad contributed the most to the building of this place!" Lincoln bragged. "So? Your dad is a good man, dunno why he had to be the father of a scumbag like you" the chief guard said. "To hell with you old thing!" Lincoln ranted and stormed out. "Thanks, chief" Maxwell said. "It's nothing, you're the best" the chief smiled, and he entered with Warren. Surprisingly, CleoSpeedy is in, streaming live on her IG. She's wet from water, and both her @ss and b**bs were bouncing on her body as she walked. "My bikini? It's from Chic-Mode, y'all know the store, right? Aww! I know I'm the best ! I love you babies!" Warren stopped beside Maxwell and looked at him. All his attention is on CleoSpeedy. "Ok guys! See y'all tomorrow on another Livestream! I love you CleoSpeedos!" She blew kisses and ended the video. She smiled and entered the cubicle to change, and she came out ten minutes later, changed to a tight gown that's barely covering her nakedness. She's obsessed with showing skin, and she even said it in a Livestream that she can go anywhere with a bikini, a b**chy celeb. She walked past Maxwell after giving him looks like he's a nobody, then she left the hall Maxwell sighed and entered the cubicle to change too. It only took three minutes before he came out in his swimming pants "You have a crush on CleoSpeedy?" Warren asked. "Don't start, please" he replied seriously, and Warren laughed as he jumped into the pool. •••

Williams came out of his underground drugs warehouse, and weed was passed to him by one of his men. He began smoking till he got to the main room. "Next batch arrives tonight, get the cash ready" he said. "Yes boss!" One of them replied and left the room. Another one came in immediately, with an envelope which he handed to Williams. Williams smiled and sat before bringing out the contents. They're pictures of Jemima. How she came out of her house this morning, how she entered the company, and how she came out this evening, how she entered her father's mansion with Maxwell and came out, then how she waited in the car for Maxwell in front of the store till when Maxwell came back and drove her home. Everything was captured clearly. "Who's this guy?" He asked, pointing at Maxwell's face. "Her new secretary" the spy replied, and he stood "Keep spying, till I give the next order" he said and left the room. He made his way to the cell and opened the metal door violently. Beverly is still in the room, tied to a bed since yesterday according to his orders, no food nor water. "Da..add...d.." Her voice barely came out as she tried to talk. Williams smiled wickedly and began unbolting his belt "Dad no...not again please... daddd...dad please... just forgive me this once...daad!!!" He was already on top of her, and her cries got louder when he ripped her skirt off her body together with her panties. "Dadddd!!!" "You'll forever remain daddy's little pet, take it" he replied, pushing the whole of his d**k into her at once. "Dadddddd!!!!!!" She shrieked, and hot tears ran down her face as he began f**king her hard like he does. •••

It's been a hella busy day for Maxwell, and there has been no rest since he arrived, from one work to another. He left his table once again and rushed to the photocopying machine to make more copies of another document. He made eight, but when he got back to his seat, he remembered he was told to make ten... "F**k" he muttered, rushing back to make more. He took the ten into Jemima's office immediately, dropping them on her desk in a file. "Here" he said, and she looked up. He started leaving as she checked them out. "I asked for twenty" she suddenly said, and he turned back. "You clearly said ten, my ears are still working" he said. "So... now you won't make it?" She said, and he sighed before coming back to take one copy. He left the office, and she smiled knowingly. "It's just getting started, Maxwell" Maxwell got back to his desk and met Lina waiting already. "Manager Lina?" "Your signature is needed here" she replied, giving him some documents. "Oh" he replied, picking a pen to sign the secretary's column. "Here too" she gave him another one, and he signed. "You're sweating" Lina said. "I'm fine" he replied and went back to the photocopying machine. "Is boss knowingly doing this to him?" Lina muttered as she walked back to her office. Maxwell made another ten photocopies, and a staff brought invoice papers again. "This has to be submitted to the general manager for her signature before you get boss to sign it, then scan it and have is distributed to the directors" she said. "General manager? You mean Miss Tatiana?" He replied, and the lady nodded with a smile. "Sure, but be careful though, she's worse" she whispered and winked before leaving. "Gawd" Maxwell muttered and took the ten copies into Jemima's office. He dropped them on her desk, and she smiled before giving him two more files. "The first one contains the list of things you need to change in this office before you leave today, and the second one contains the names of directors you have to make sure attends the meeting by 5, dunno how you're gonna do it" she said bossily. Maxwell dropped the files immediately. "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?" He said, looking pissed "So? You'd fight me?" She smirked. "Jemima!" He shouted furiously, and she spranged up. "It's miss Jemima! I'm four years older, kiddo" she said angrily. Maxwell was about to reply again when the door opened to reveal Sloane. She came in with Miguel and Francesca. "Mum!" Francesca smiled cheerfully. "What's happening?" Jemima muttered. "I went to pick Miguel in school actually, then Francesca insisted that I bring her here, she refused to follow her driver home, she said she misses you so I had no choice" Sloane replied. "Take her back, this instant!" Jemima shouted, and Maxwell frowned. What's going on? "Mum, can't I stay with you for a while?" Francesca said gently. "And I said no! Go back home!" Jemima snapped angrily. "Jemima stop this already!" Sloane said. "It's not even one, you brought your Miguel too? Take them outta my sight!" Jemima shouted, and Francesca began crying. "Go home!" Jemima shouted. "She's your daughter! Stop shouting at her!" Maxwell shouted as his anger got the best of him. He couldn't stand and watch the mistreatment anymore. "And who said you could intervene!" Jemima shouted back, coming out of her desk. She walked fast to him, and just like yesterday, she raised her hand to slap him, but he caught the hand again, holding it so tight as their eyes met again. "You said it last night that you like people who don't take trash. I don't take it, and you should know by now ... that I'd never allow you to slap me, ever!" He spat, holding her wrist tighter, so much that it hurts. "Let me go! Maxwell" Jemima wriggled in pains. "Please don't hurt my mummy!!!" Francesca cried out.
