TWIST OF REVENGE

CHAPTER1

“You don’t seem to give up, don’t you? I’ve told you several times! "I’m not interested in this dumb*ss relationship anymore!” Lucas screamed as he left the bedroom.

Lucas Brook and Samantha Reynolds have been together for four years, but recently, after the completion of the fashion house, the relationship started crumbling.

“Lucas! "Lucas, please!” She sobbed onto the pillow.

“What did I do to deserve all this? "I'd been faithful to Lucas since day one. "Why’s he treating me this way?” Samantha said to herself, still crying.

“Maybe I should go to the fashion house. "He might be a bit cranky,” she said as she stood up and went straight to the bathroom.

*************

At Runway fashion house, Lucas was flirting with other girls, complementing them and making them happy. He was also happy until the door opened and his smile faded.

‘Oh cr*p!’ Lucas thought to himself.

Samantha ignored everyone’s greetings and walked up straight to Lucas.

“Hey Lucas, I know you’re not having it right now, but please, I brought food for you and I want you to calm down and reduce the way you stress,” Samantha said in a calm, soothing voice.

One of the reasons Lucas and Samantha’s relationship is still standing is because of Samantha’s manner of approach. She has a high level of patience and endurance.

“Fine, thanks, hang around, I’ll be with you shortly,” Lucas said in a nonchalant tone as he collected the food.

“Oh my goodness, Lucas, is this your girlfriend? Yuck! "She looks so ten years ago, hahaha.” One of the designers said sarcastically.

Samantha was dressed in a faded and worn-out baggy shirt, a pair of trousers that looked like it had been passed down by five generations.

“Um… no actually, she’s just my help and my cook, she….” Lucas responded, signaling Samantha to go to the back.

“What? "Lucas, "How dare you say such about me in front of this commoner?” Samantha interrupted him before he finished.

“Excuse you? Who are you calling a commoner? Girl, you look like you would be fit for a garbage business.”

“Alright, that’s enough!” Lucas screamed, swinging his arms in the air. “Samantha, go to the back and you! He pointed to the other lady. “Meet me at the corner, let me see the designs you came up with.”

At the back of the main area, Samantha was sobbing when she noticed food steps coming from a certain direction. The footsteps became closer until it revealed a tall fair figure. It was her boyfriend, Lucas.

“Hey,” he said, sitting next to her.

“I know you think I’m some kind of jerk right now, but I would like to explain things to you,” He continued.

“I’m all ears,” Samantha said, wiping her face.

“Do you see other girls here?” he asked.

“Yes. And?”

“See how classy they look, dressing in vogue. Wearing the latest shoes, jewelry, hair and many more. While you, on the other hand, dress so out of my league.”

He continued, “Look Samantha, I’m not the guy you knew four years back. Things have changed. I’m older and better and my taste differ from years ago.”

“Wow! So is this the reason you’ve been treating me this way? Because of clothes and lifestyle?” Her face now stern and slowly turning red.

“ I mean, look at my career. "I’ve grown bigger and better. "This has always been my dream. "I can’t let you tarnish my image and look like I hired you to clean my dogs,” Lucas said in a more masculine tone.

“ You know what? "I’m out! "I can’t deal with this trash you just said to me.”

As Samantha was leaving, Lucas grabbed her wrist and said, “If you don’t make changes to what I told you, I would have no choice than to end this relationship once and for all!”

Samantha looked at him in disgust, shrugged her wrist out of his hands and left the building.

Later that night, Samantha prepared Lucas’s favorite meal; spaghetti and meatballs, and dressed in her favorite lace Victoria's Secret nightwear.

Lucas came back very late that night and Samantha didn’t have it. Suddenly, she heard the front door open and she went to see who it was. Lucas looked drunken and annoyed at the sight of Samantha.

“What have you done to yourself, Lucas? "You look so bad, come let me take you upstairs,” Samantha said, reaching out to him.

“Leave me alone you f****ng b*tch! "You disgust me!” he screamed, his anger growing.

Samantha was already very annoyed by everything Lucas did to her. She couldn’t hold herself anymore.

“Are you crazy? What sort of ungrateful being are you? "I’ve done everything I could to please you, but yet you treat me like some wh*re you pay to sleep in your house.” Tears gathered in Samantha’s eyes.

“I gave up my family because of you. I supported you to the very point that you are, but yet you throw all of that under the carpet and treat me this way?”

“Of course, what do you expect? That I treat you well and nicely? "When you don’t even look worth it? "Just look at what you’re wearing. Are they even in vogue? "These are so 2015, they’re ugly! ""You’re so out of my league,” Lucas screamed back, attempting to hit her.

“I have a new girl now. She’s classy, she’s bougie, she’s rich and, most importantly, she’s a model.”

Samantha’s face was saddened. The feeling she had was similar to that of dropping a stone into a big river. She was devastated on the spot, but she gathered some courage to still speak up.

“Oh let me guess, it’s probably one of those h*oes in your i********: or one of the models, huh?”

Lucas' silence was answer enough. The atmosphere became more calm.

“How long have you been with her?” Samantha asked.

“Does it matter? "What does that have to do with you?”

“It matters to me because I am the girl who has been with you for four f***ing years, and now you toss me because of a girl you probably met last month?”

Lucas sighed dramatically, “Just a few months, and everything just happened.”

Samantha went closer, looking Lucas in the eyes, “ Things don’t just happen, Lucas. You make choices.”

“know what? Let’s not stress this any further. "I’m done with this relationship, you can take your things and leave, because by the time I return, you won’t like what you see,” Lucas said.

“What? Are you kidding me right now? Lu…” Samantha said as she watched her new ex-boyfriend walk out the door.
