My name is Rita . I am the only child born to Mr Zayn .

My dad is the third richest man in the country and am an actress, so I lacked nothing except for fatherly love , still I was the envy of many .

Every morning , dad wakes up ,takes his breakfast ,drops a cheque for me and that's it .

I get to see him again in the night when he comes back , wasted and that's how it goes everyday.

I still got friends to talk to , and that's the only thing that keeps me going . I lost my mom in an auto crash and since then nothing's remained the same .

"Richard , you can't do this . I promise to pay you in two weeks " I over heard dad talking to someone over the phone . He sounded anxious , and that's the second time I was seeing that expression on his face. The first was when mom was in theatre after her accident .Who can possibly make dad worry like this ? I thought .Well whoever it is goes by the name Richard .I shrugged .

"Shut up ! you don't tell me when I get my own money . I'll be coming to collect that cash in seven days" The voice said

"I can't get that huge sum in seven days" Dad replied and the caller hung up on him .

"Dad , who's that threatening you on the phone call?" I asked .

"Back off ! if this doesn't work out then you'll just have to go over . I can't loose my head yunno" He replied and blew the smoke from his cigarette on my face .

I picked my phone and called ,Cynthia, my best friend.

"Let's hand out tonight "I said

"Where ?"She asked

"Let's try Ralio's club .Heard it's fun "

"Alright" She replied and I hung up.

Few hours later

She drove in and we left for the club .

We got there and a waitress approached us with a seductive smile .

"Do you need anything ?" She asked

"Yeah , your absence .We don't do girls " Cynthia replied and she walked away with a frown .

"Gotta go catch some big fish " Cynthia winked at me and disappeared in the crowd .

I walked to the bar and ordered for a glass of champagne.

"Hey there , pretty " A guy walked to me and said .

"Disappear already, you're too ugly to have a conversation with" I shouted and that attracted me some gazes , which I didn't care about .

My life is fucked up already.

The guy walked away with a glare and I didn't forget to glare back at him .

"Miss, that man at the back wants to have a word with you " A waiter told me .

"Well, tell him to come and meet me , himself "I replied him while sipping my drink .

"Uhm, Ma the man I am talking about is Mr R"

"Go tell your Mr R that I , miss R will not come there to meet him " I told him and he left to deliver the message .

The man approached me himself with a cold face .

"You refused my call " He said

"Obviously " I replied .

He looked at me with a flirtatious smirk and then grabbed my butts .

I returned the gesture with a hot slap and emptied my glass of wine on him .

"You messed with the wrong bitch !" I smirked and walked away .

"Get her !" I heard him say and ran towards Cynthia's car .I opened the door and saw her making out with a guy .

"Get the fuck out !" I screamed and pushed the naked guy out of the car . I collected the keys from her and drove off while the goons drove after me .

I increased the speed and soon drove away from their sight .

"Don't tell me caused a trouble in there " Cynthia said with a knowing glare .

"Well I didn't " I smirked .

"So what happened?"She asked and I narrated everything to her .

"What if that man is very influential, you'll be in trouble"

"Just change your plate number , so he doesn't trace you "

"Geez , you also put me in trouble " Cynthia shouted and pounced on me .

"Your life is on the line here " I said and we both laughed .

I got to my house and bid her goodbye , then she drove for hers .

"I've changed my mind . I give you three days to get me my money " I heard a voice speaking to dad on phone call .

"Richard, please , why the sudden change of mind . Aren't you the man of your words ?" Dad asked with a smirk . I knew dad's tryna play the mind game on him .

He's cunning after all.

"Its Mr R, not Richard . If I correct you again , your head will pay the price " He said and hung up on the call .

wa...wait a second .Mr R???!!

"Dad , who's this Mr R" I asked and he grabbed me by my neck .

"This should be the last time you eavesdrop on my call" He said and walked away .

If it's who am thinking , then am not safe !!.

The next morning ...

Dad was having his breakfast when I walked to him and sat next to him .

"Dad , if you're facing a problem then tell me so we can sort it out as family "I told him but he gave me no reply .

"I met Mr R, last night " I said and that's when I had his attention .

"How and why did you meet him ?" He asked and I narrated everything to him .

"Then there's no reason for me to be worried again . You're a blessing to me my daughter " He said with a smile and I became confused .

That's the first smile I saw on face since mom's demise.

"I don't understand you , dad "

"Youll understand me later " He said and,dropped a cheque for me on the table ,then left for work .

Mr R's Residence

"We've traced the plate number and found out it belonged to Cynthia Walter " A guard said to Richard

"So was she the one that committed the taboo ,last night ?"Richard asked

"I don't know, Sir" He said and received a gun shot on his forehead .

"That's for giving me a wrong answer " Richard replied and kept the gun on the table .

"Timothy , go and find out all you can about Cynthia Walter" He ordered and Timothy left .

Guys meet Richard , a cold , ruthless and merciless business man .

He is the only man feared by the law !!!
