Mia
I flinched back in fear as he kept gazing at me with his cold eyes and I had to run my eyes around the floor. I just felt like peeing on myself this instant. Maybe it could help lessen the tension radiating all over my body.
What's my problem? I should have admired them from a distance or better still, I shouldn't have entered his bedroom from the start. Oh God! What is he gonna do to me now?
I kept waiting for him to lash out on me but that never happened as he just stood still at one point. I just feel like disappearing into thin air...
"Philip!"I heard him call coldly with his eyes still pinned on me.
Why's he calling for Philip? it could be he wants him to clear up the floor, right? I'd be so damn grateful for that.
"Yes Lord" he responded obediently and gave me that pitiful look which I just couldn't buy.
For some minutes he kept silent, making the room look like a graveyard. Acting as though he didn't call on someone. And for a while, I've begun pondering if this guy is truly normal or perhaps he is abnormal right?
"Go get me those broken bottles from the store room and four pieces of canes.." he ordered, his voice dripping with coldness.
"On it Lord!"Philip uttered and hurried out.
Broken bottles and cains? What's that for? I kept contemplating on it with my heart thumping faster until the Phillip guy returned.
"Here it is, Lord Bryan"
"Make a carpet with those bottles beginning from where she's standing and out the door."he ordered in a stern voice and I gulped hard as the huge guy began pouring out the bottles, making a straight line towards the door.
"I'm done, Lord. what I'm I gonna do with the cains?" he asked after a few minutes with a little bow. but as usual, he didn't get a reply.
"Step on them and exit my room, now!" I suddenly heard the cold guy order and my eyes dilated in shock.
What???
I think he isn't serious about this.how can he ask me to walk on broken bottles? is that even possible?
"I....I..what do you mean? I can't possibly walk on that. don't you have human sympathy?"I stuttered and I heard him scoffed
"Don't make me repeat myself" he said softly but, the words held so much venom and I cringed.
"Philip, make sure to whip her 12 strokes of cane as she's walking on the broken bottles and if she steps out of the bottles, increase it to 24 strokes."He commanded and that did it. I peed on my pants that very minute. Hot sweat broke out of my body even though the air con was on.
"Pl.. Please...I won't do it next time. I won't ever touch your things. Have mercy on me for just this once."I didn't know when I started pleading that more tears rolled down my cheeks.
"Did you just peed in my room? what nonsense!"he roared and I just kept praying the ground should open and swallow me up. I'm pleading for the damage I had caused, and now, I have doubled it up again. What's really my problem?
Like a flash, He was standing very close to me with his right hand roughly holding my arm. "Does this place look like your stinking house where you have to litter the floor? huh? " he yelled with his fingers digging deep into my skin.
"Plea..se I'm So_sorry you're hurting me" she kept pleading as Bryan turned her back towards the direction of the broken bottles and forcefully pushed her and she ended up falling at the top of them.
"Arrrgh...."she let out an agonizing scream as the bottles penetrate into her skin. she could feel her skin ripping apart as tears rolled out of her eyes endlessly.
She felt so weak to lift herself off the bottles. Her back hurt like hell and she could bet the scar can never be wiped off. Why is the world so cruel? She'd thought as she continued wailing loudly.
"This is just the tip of an iceberg. The next time you go against my orders again, I won't exitate in hurting you so badly...that you're gonna wish for death."He growled, making her burst into more tears.
"Clear everything up and make sure my room is thoroughly cleaned. Take her to her room and make sure no treatment is rendered on her."he ordered sternly and Stormed out of the room in anger.
"Ok_ay Lord Bryan" Philip answered, shuttering a little as he stared at the weeping lady. He felt bad for her but there's nothing he could do. He had to follow Lord Bryan's orders.
He carefully carried her in his arms to avoid hurting her wounds more. She was bleeding so severely, the floor was covered in her blood.
"It hurts, Mr. It hurts s..o much" she kept wailing as Phillip took her to her room and carefully laid her face down on the bed. Some bottles particles were still stock in her back making it hurt like hell. The pains were so unbearable and she was just thinking if God created her to pass through so much pain.
Philip stared at her for a while feeling the urge to help her. but, he just couldn't bring himself to disobey his boss. He tried leaving the room when Mia held his hand stopping him from taking further steps.
"Ple_ase do_nt lea_ve me th_is way." Her words were breaking due to the pain surging through her body. She felt so weak already due to the lost of so much blood
"There's nothing I can do. I'm Sorry." Phillip muttered and freed his hand off hers then quickly, he strode out of the room before he did something that would cost his life.
Mrs Johnson Chapman's POV
My driver parked outside the big building that I would say is X2 of the Chapman's Mansion. We both stepped out of the car and I went ahead and rang the bell stationed at the wall.
"Mom, are you trying to tell me this mansion belongs to your son, Bryan?"Fiona asked, surprised at how big the house is.
"Yes it is. My private investigator can't give me someone else's address." I said factly and she giggled happily when the gate was pulled open and two huge guys came out. I think I do recognize one of them.
"How can we help you?" The unfamiliar one asked and I put on a smiling face.
"Hey, Sammy, that's Lord Bryan's mother." the one which I recognized earlier told the other one.
"Really? I'm so sorry ma'am"He apologized and let us in.
"Where's Bryan?" I asked.
"Please come with me, ma'am" he uttered leading the way and we followed suit.
He led us inside a room where loud music was being heard threatening to bring down the whole building.
"He's inside the inner room practicing for his show tonight."Sammy guy uttered and I nodded in understanding before he walked out leaving just the two of us there.
"Wow mom, I can't believe Bryan is this wealthy. Everything is decorated in golds.."Fiona beamed and I chuckled.
"Your husband is so wealthy and you're gonna be swimming in money, darling." I uttered, and she giggled happily.
"I really can't wait, Mom." she said dreamingly when the music suddenly came to a stop and Bryan stepped out of the room drying himself up with a towel.
He stopped abruptly when he noticed he wasn't alone in the room.
"Hi son," I called.
"Hello Bryan" Fiona cooed and went ahead to hug him but he shoved her aside with a frown plastered on his face.
"How did you get my house Address, Mom?" He demanded, in anger.
