Chapter 20
“No I mean here as in on this business trip” I said with an eye roll irritation crystal clear in my voice.
“Oh, I decided to join the Bolton’s. I never had a good relationship with my father so suppose he will give his business to my cousin.”
“Hmm” I kept my head low not wanting to continue the conversation with him.
“So how are you doing?”
“Wow Brandon I’m so not gonna how are you after you cheated on me” I rolled my eyes in annoyance.
“You know I was drunk at the party” He looked down at his feet as in what seemed to be like guilt. But I knew better. I knew he dated me so that he could show off to his dad that he is capable of running the company.
I thought that I could push those thoughts off and try to make him a better person. To really love me and to not think of me as a business deal. But unfortunately before that happened, he cheated on me.
“I don’t care if you apologize or not because now I’m married” I held my hand up and showed him my ring finger.
C’mon how can you love that piece of wood? Does he even talk?”
“Yes he does! Now mind your own business”
“Vivienne- ” he grabbed me by my arm.
“BRANDON! let me go!” I yelled tying to free my arm.
“Just listen I still want you okay”
“LET GO OF ME!“. I tried to yank my arm back.
“Vivienne-” his grip tightened around my wrist bruising it. I whined in pain as he used more force.
“Let go of her” I saw Marcus approaching from the corner of my eye.
Embarrassment flushed my cheeks, not for getting harassed but Marcus, who I mocked not a while ago coming to save me.
“What Marcus? You don’t even care about her. It’s so obvious”
“Doesn’t mean she’s not my wife. Now move your bloody hand away from her” Marcus’s face darkened.
He let go of my arm only for Marcus to hold my hand and drag me back to the room.
He closed the door with a thud and turned to me with a vicious anger blazing his eyes.
“I told you not to act recklessly and ruin everything”
“What? I didn’t go to Brandon. He came to me” I folded my arms in front of my chest trying to prove my point

“Whatever, Don’t cause a scene and expect me to save you. Let’s go for dinner” Marcus took his phone from the table and went out.
“And do something about your wrist before you come out. Don’t humiliate me” He called out as he left leaving me in pain.
I huffed in annoyance and quickly changed into white pants and long sleeve floral top covering my bruised wrists.
I got inside the elevator with him. Both of us didn’t say a single word during dinner. Marcus sat on my right and Jake on my left. Brandon sat in front of me. I felt his eyes on me but I chose to ignore him.
Jake felt the tension as he looked back and forth between us.
“Explain to me later” he whispered in my ear. I slowly gave him a nod.
After dinner we went back to the room. I didn’t want to face Marcus so after changing I took my pillow to the couch.
Marcus stared at me for a while and went to sleep on the bed.
Gosh I want to divorce him.
“Mom no.. no”
I heard someone whimpering. I thought it was outside but it felt so near. The voice so familiar but yet it was distant.
I opened my eyes to see Marcus on his bed. Sweating, his fingers tightening around the sheets as he was having a nightmare.
I didn’t know what to do but I stood up and walked over to him.
“Marcus! Marcus! “I shook his arm trying to wake him up.
“Marcus! It’s just a dream”
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at me.
“Get out” he yelled in anger.
What? Did he just tell me to get out for saving him?
“What’s wrong with you dork? I saved your ass and this is how you treat me. “I was more than annoyed. I quickly turned and strode
to the bathroom to calm myself.
When I came out he was dressed in a t–shirt and pants, getting ready to leave.
“Where are you going?” I asked with a scowl.
But he ignored me and left. I looked at my phone to see the time and it was 2:30. Where the hell was he going?
I waited a while for him to come back but he didn’t. So I went to the balcony for fresh air. As I was looking down I saw a man seated on a bench at the beach. I squinted my eyes to see who it was.
I would’ve recognised that body anywhere. It was Marcus, sitting on the bench, staring at the ocean with a pained look.
I quickly took a chair to the balcony and sat, observing Marcus. He bent his head back and closed his eyes, feeling the breeze of salty

water.
I suddenly felt the urge to run down and hug him. He looked so fragile at the moment. He was always composed, never letting out his emotions. Seeing him this vulnerable made me want to run to him, to ask what was bothering him.
