Claus'POV
Tina was beginning to get annoying. She couldn't stop blabbering about How she disliked Izzy having a babysitter called Monica. She was jealous of Monica. She couldn'touldnt comprehend the idea of Monica being a constant part of our lives . She was still talking about Monica over and over.
Jealous?I hated it cause Tina used that emotion to manipulate me alot of times.So I tried as much as possible to remove anyone in my life who aroused that feeling in me. I couldn't be able to let Tina go yet we had alot of projects together and that was a reason why we had to be with each other constantly .She also had connections with other companies that I wanted collaborations with. She was an asset to both me and my company. I needed to be with her for the growth of my establishments.Though at this point she was proving to be a pain in the ass.She was clearly showing me that she wasn't happy with Monica's involvement with Issabella.Our companies were working together.I knew the only way I could turn off the constant beckering was if I turned in to sleep.So I did.Tina knew better than to wake me up cause me sleeping meant end of discussion. The next day my body craved for coffee , all I wanted was to have some coffee , I never trusted coffee that was made by someone else. I always wanted coffee that I made. This was since Isabella's mother manipulated me by drugging my coffee.
We had know each other since childhood and I really grew to love her . She cohersed me into getting married at sixteen .It's not like she forced me or anything but to be honest I was not really ready for that commitment that early. I loved her that was evident but I was not psychologically ready to enter into the covenant of marriage at such an early age.
By the time I could even wrap my head around the fact that we are married ,She was already pregnant. We were always careful and used protection all the time. Not until that day when after I had my coffee I don't quite remember what happened next , only to realize that she was pregnant with Isabella.
I was so immersed in my thoughts that I didn't notice Monica , who was rammaging through the fridge. I tiptoed and went behind her, she fully knew what was going to happen.
she ran into my chest and played ignorant. At least that was safe for her. why? Because I am not a gentleman and if you show any little bit of interest, you have to go all the way to the end , no matter how small the interest is , even if it's just flirting you have to go all the way. She maybe was faking it but she had to fake it till the end. because once she stops and I get to have my way with her I won't resist.It was a good sign still since it meant that if she could resist my charms then she could resist my cousins charms. my feud with my cousin started along time ago. before time began and I couldn't recruit people who would be easily coersed by him which he's surprisingly good at. I noticed her cheek lift up in disapproval as I smiles at the maid who had called us for dinner. Well she shouldn't look at me like that. it wasn't my fault that she was blushing alot, the maid I mean. neither was it my fault that I was bestowed with great features. "How can you do that?"
"Do what,?" I asked on pretense. I completely knew what she meant but I didn't want to give her the pleasure .
"Be in a relationship and still look at other species of girls."
" Nice choice of words" I said , but she seemed to not give a f**k about it.
so I looked her straight in the eyes and said.
"I don't know what you are talking about, but you are the one who said it all, let's go prepare for war."
"War," she frowned probably confused.
"Haven't you figured it out Monica James"
"Figure what out,"
"Breakfast is just a camouflage.Monica, in real sense it means ......"
"War, she replied
"That's my girl" before I could take back my words , it was too late."
To my surprise she smiled and I froze. I wasn't expecting that kind of a response to that .
I didn't get why it was making me happy though, was making her happy ,making me happy too. What was going on with my emotions. Were they playing with me cause I didn't like it when my emotions were playing with me. I am not suppose to fall for her that is the rule.
I froze for a minute.
Something was definitely wrong.
So I went back to the cold, organized, keeping to myself guy I was.
"See you at breakfast" ,I said as I turned to the side and went on my way. I noticed Monica open her mouth trying to say something but I ignored her and continued on going . I felt her face drop but I didn't care. I just had to leave there before I started making promises to make her more happy. I hurried to my room and found Tina all dressed up with her arms folded around her chest . That only shouted one thing to me. "I am ready for an argument." I sighed silently boy I wasn't ready for this.
"Where were you ?" she asked sternly and her eyes were fixed at me . she always know when I lied so I always avoided eye contact in such scenarios . I wasn't sure whether to flee from her or just dodge the question until she finally let it go. who was I kidding , ofcourse she wouldn't let it go ,I mean this is Tina.
so all I ended up saying was.."Tina please,"
