Billionaire's Challenge

CHAPTER 06

I was waiting by the door when I heard her footsteps. I never thought hide and seek could be this entertaining. She stepped into the genitor room. I shut the door and turned on the lights. Seeing me standing by the door, she came close to me and grabbed my collar. It took my everything to control myself not to kill her there. 

"You think this is funny. You think if you create these types of dramas, I will let you go. Not an option Angus. Not going to happen." She said while looking into my eyes. I was impressed again. No one ever dared to grab my collar. She didn't just grab my collar but was also looking into my eyes.

I looked at her hands then back at her face. I was fuming. It was the most disrespectful act I have ever witnessed in my life. I grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled them aggressively. I wanted to see tears in her eyes but damn that woman. I didn't even see moist in her eyes.

"You have a big mouth Miss Collins. That's not a woman's job. A woman is born for our pleasure, not to grab our collar." I replied and pulled her hair even more. She didn't even whimper in pain. She gritted her teeth and kneed my stomach hard. I groaned in pain and  let go of her hair. I fell on the ground holding my stomach tightly and she cuffed me. She was smirking mischievously at me. She knelt down beside me and leaned closer to my ear.

"You have mistaken me with the whores you keep around. Women aren't born to please you man, they are born to keep this world going on." She whispered in my ear and I just glared back at her. She grabbed my elbow and carefully pulled me back up on my feet. She then took me back to my cell and locked me back into my cell.

"Try that stunt again and I will kick you where it will hurt most." She said before she turned around and left. I was stunned by her behavior. Even when I behaved like a total jerk, she was still kind. 

"Kind, I will make you pay for your act Norie Collins. What do you think of yourself? I will make you regret everything. I promise you." I thought to myself and went to the bed. I laid down on the bed and closed my eyes. I was tired, it didn't take me long to fall asleep.

----------------------------------------------------------

I woke up in the morning and looked around. I sat up on the bed. An officer came to my cell and called me closer. I stood up and went to him. He handed me a piece of paper. "Read it then eat it or flush it. Mr Williams had sent it for you." He whispered and left. I opened the paper and read it. 

"Everything is done. I promise you will be out today. Just stay quiet and let me handle everything." Mr Williams said. I burned the papers with the lighter I had and flushed it out.

In a few minutes, I saw Norie coming to my cell. She had new clothes in the hands. She unlocked the cell and took me out. She took me to the bathroom. " Take a shower and change your stinky clothes." She said but didn't leave.

"Were you told to witness my private parts as well?" I asked.

"Shut up and do as you are told." She replied. I smirked and did as she told me. I stripped my clothes off and took a quick shower. I changed my clothes and she cuffed me again. She took me out of the bathroom and took me straight to her car. She made me sit and hopped in. She started the engine and drove off.

It took us an hour to reach the court. She stepped out of the car and pulled me out as well. We walked into the courtroom. She sat on one of the chairs and made me sit beside her. "So she thinks I will run away. Think about it again Miss Collins." I thought to myself. The judge entered the courtroom and we all stood up. They started calling witnesses against me. But they all were bought by Mr Williams. I could see her chewing her nails in nervousness.

The judge called me into the witness box. I went there. "Do you have anything to say for yourself Mr Rutherford?" The judge asked me.

"No, I don't have anything to say for myself. The witnesses said everything." I replied. She nodded her head and noted my answer. 

"After hearing all the witnesses and viewing all the evidence, the Court has decided to release Mr Rutherford and declare him innocent. As per Miss Collins, you are terminated from your job for being an  irresponsible detective and dragging an innocent person in the court and that too a respected politician. I order your department to find out the reason behind this drama. Till then, you are suspended." The judge said and signed the papers.

"I don't understand what happened Mr R.K." She said to one of the men. He glared at her and pulled her badge and gun off of her.

"I had never imagined that you would drag an innocent man like this. I gave you a task and what you did, you brought Mr Rutherford into this." R.K said out loud.

"No your highness, I was given a file with a task to arrest Mr Rutherford. I wasn't the one who had investigated this case. I was told to only arrest him and take him to the court with the evidence." She complained.

"I can't believe you Norie, your father was an honored officer, he died with his honor and you are blaming others for your mistakes. Your father would be ashamed of you." R.K said and she glared at him. For the first time in two days, I saw moisture in her eyes. She lunged herself on R.K. Kicking and punching him so hard.

"You dare to talk about my dad. You know nothing about him. You sick psycho, you think you can frame me so easily. I don't think so. I will make you regret your actions." She yelled loudly. She kept hitting him. So many officers tried to hold her but she was out of control. At last they had no option left but tranquilize her. They gave her a shot and in a few minutes she fell asleep.

"Something doesn't feel right." Mr Williams said and I looked at him.

"She made a mistake to drag me out of the conference like this. She deserves it." I replied bluntly and stepped out of the courtroom. Mr Williams followed me behind. We both hopped into the car and drove back to my office. I changed my clothes and wore a royal blue tuxedo. The press was waiting for both me and Mr Williams. I stepped out of my office and Mr Williams took me to the conference Hall. It felt good to be back. I couldn't believe it was finally happening. I was going to be a Minister soon. The journalists stood up and greeted me with even more respect. I greeted them back. They asked me some random questions about the drama Norie had created. I answered them like a gentleman. Soon Mr Williams called me on the stage and announced me as his candidate for the coming elections. Everyone congratulated me. 

"At last, it will be mine." I thought to myself and started answering the questions all the journalists were asking.
