"Don't tell me you are crying," he said.
"No, I'm not," she lied while cleaning her tears.
"I know you are hiding it from me. Just cheer up; nobody can separate us," Jay tried to calm her down, but that didn't help. She cried out.
"It's okay, Liz, you don't have to cry. I will make sure we are together," Jay said.
"I don't understand why my father hates you. You are rich, handsome, and also a celebrity. I don't know why Dad doesn't want us together; I'm really mad at him," Liz said angrily.
"I also don't know why he hates me. My dad was just trying to save me. That's why he always scolds me when I'm with you, because of your father," he explained.
"I'm going to ask him why he hates you," Liz said with courage.
"No, don't ask him," Jay suggested, but Liz didn't give him an ear and walked out after dropping her phone.
"Hello, hello!" Jay called out her name, but Liz didn't hear. She was already with her father in the bar room, taking drinks.
"Dad, I need to talk to you," Liz demanded.
"If it's about that Jay, I have nothing to say," Mr. Mark Bezos said in a serious voice.
"And you have to let me know why you hate him for seeing us together," Liz asked while raising her voice. Mr. Mark Bezos was mute for a moment before he uttered a word.
"Because he always puts you in danger. You are not meant to be together, and when the time comes, I will find you a good man," her father said, trying to confuse her.
"You are not the one that will decide for me; moreover, I love him more than anything in this world. He means a lot to me," Liz explained in a deep voice.
"Jay is a celebrity, and he will be a womanizer. I don't want you in the wrong path, my dear," he said while moving to her and touching her head. Liz removed his hand from her head.
"Did you? think everybody will be like you How you cheated on Mom because she is no more and brought in a concubine to represent her? And you think my Jay can do such just because you know he is a man like you? I'm sorry to say this, but you don't love my mother or me; you just care about your future, reputation, and a woman," Liz raised her voice at him, and he slapped her. By then, Angela and her sister Katerina were standing at the bar table, watching the scene. They were happy when Mr. Mark Bezos slapped Liz.
"You slapped me!" Liz said while holding her cheek.
"And you know what? You never slapped me before; you raised your hand because I mentioned your wife!" Liz wept while still touching her cheeks.
"And I know you love her more than me, and I will make sure to leave both of you for good," Liz said and turned back. Mr. Mark Bezos's eyes were red; he was angry and threw away the bottle he was holding. Angela walked to him, pretending she was worried about Liz.
"Honey, she is just a kid. Let her go; I know she will come back to her senses," Angela said.
"She will never leave this mansion again, and I will warn Jay's father for the last time, or else I will make sure to jail his son and ruin his reputation," Mr. Mark Bezos said in anger and walked out.
Light shined on Liz as she cried. She took her phone. Jay called, but she refused to pick it up. He sent messages; she didn't reply until she fell asleep.
At Mr. William's company,
A black lady wearing a short hair entered Mr. William's office.
"I was trying to call you; you were not picking up. Also, knocking, you were not answering. Hope all is well, sir," the lady asked.
"Nope, secretary, I'm a little bit busy…What is it? "He asked,
"Mr. Mark Bezos, the CEO of Tts Music Production, is here to see you," the lady said.
"Let him in," he said, and the secretary walked out. Not long after, Mr. Mark Bezos entered.
"What brings a CEO of Tts Music Production to my company? Hope all is well," Mr. William asked.
"Have your seat," Mr. William concluded.
"I don't need to sit because I am not here as your friend but as your enemy," Mr. Mark Bezos said in a tough voice.
"Are you here because your daughter is still hanging out with my son?" he asked.
"Your son is hanging out with my daughter. This is my last warning. Or else, I will make sure to jail him, and he will never become the person he wishes to be," Mr. Mark Bezos threatened him.
"You can never ruin his reputation. Did you forget is father his also a big man? He is not a poor boy, and you are the one who should warn your daughter and tie her down not to see my son!" Mr. William rained words on him, and Mr. Mark Bezos was angry and also speechless.
"I will hold my daughter, you too, do that to your son!" he said and walked out angrily.
