Chapter 7

Seeing jack made my heart stop. What was he doing here? I never planned on meeting him again and now.

He didn't enter, he just stood there looking at us with both anger and jealousy?

I stumbled back up, and the elevator moved. Xavier was busy smirking. He sure does like smirking a lot.

Jack. Maybe he has a meeting here with Xavier, that's the only reason why he could be here.

"Relax, you look ugly making that face." I heard Xavier say. I threw him a deadly glare, I'm sure if looks could kill, he'd be dead by now.

He rolled his eyes.

"Do you have a meeting with him?" I asked him.

He furrowed his eyebrow.

"Why? you know him?" How I wanted to hit this man. He doesn't know who he was and he was smirking, I thought he knew.

"Uh... no, just wanted to know." He didn't buy that. I was hoping he did.

He straightened his magnificent suit. "I have a meeting with him in a few minutes, and you have to be there." He said.

Nonono, I'm not ready. Does he know the truth? What if he knows and decides to take my Daisy.

"I have to go somewhere very important, please," I said and he scoffed.

"That's not allowed during work time, miss Hayden, you're paying off a debt and I suggest you-"

"Please! I can't see h-" I cut myself.

"You can't see who?" He asked curiously.

"Uh... never mind," I said. I'll have to come up with another excuse.

Soon the elevator dinged, Xavier came out, should I come out too. But then I'd see Jack. I was contemplating when the elevator doors closed and moved again.

Now, I'm regretting not coming out, what if he decides to fire me and then sue me.

I hit myself on the head, I was such an idiot! This building was so big because the elevator keeps going up to only God knows where.

Soon it stopped. I sighed. The elevator door opened. But my heart wasn't prepared for the person I saw.

Jack.

He grabbed my arm dragging me behind him. What the hell is wrong with him?! I stumbled on the way. We reached a place rather than a room. He locked the door.

Why was I here? I don't know what came over me, I slapped him. He clenched his jaw.

"What was that for?!" I screamed at him.

"You've become feisty since the last time we saw, why? Because you've got another dick to ride on? And I'm not surprised you went after him you worthless gold digger." He sneered.

The nerves, I don't care who he is, but I won't let him do this, I won't let him insult me.

I was going to slap him again, but he held my arm.

"Don't you dare raise a hand on me, ever again? Do not forget who I'm. It's funny how you acted like an innocent person but all these while you were and are a gold digger." He seems to enjoy calling me that.

I tried to yank my hand out of his grip, but he was just too strong

"Don't think you can get away easily for what you did." And with that, he left.

Gold digger. I was not a gold digger, and I'm not.

I dropped to the floor weeping. I hated all this. I hated Jack for making me feel this way.

Flashbacks of 2 years ago came back to my mind. That picture he showed me, I know I wasn't the one. Maybe someone was trying to frame me and they succeeded.

If that had never happened we'd probably be together. In a happy family.

All I have ever wanted was a family. After since when my family died.

My birth family was something I could do anything to have. We had a very good relationship, well except for me and my twin sister.

We never got along. We were the complete opposite of each other. While she was ongoing, I was really shy.

She had hated having a twin sister. She hated me the most when she found out that her crush liked me.

She made it clear just how much she hated me, but I loved her.

Flashback

I was drying my hair in my room, well the room I shared with my twin sister Layla. I was 14 and Cal asked me to go help him go pack some things from their attic.

Just then Layla burst into the room. Her eyes were burning with hatred towards me.

"You slut, you always get what you want! You know I love cal don't you?!"

She was misunderstanding this, I don't like cal like that, I swear we were just friends.

"No Layla, you're misunderstanding this, I and cal are just friends..."

"Oh really? I wonder what kind of friends hang out the way you do with him, the way you touch him."

"Lay-" she cuts me off.

"Hold it, I don't need your stupid explanation. Do you know how much I wish I didn't have a twin? I'd do anything to change this. I hate you so much lily, you should know that." She said walking out of the room.

She was going out with mom and dad.

But that was the last time I heard of them.

End of Flashback.

What were her last words to me?

It hurts so much. After that, I never talked to cal again. That was what she wanted so I had to give her my last wish.

Someone knocked on the door, dragging me out of my trance.

I quickly dried my tears.

"Miss Hayden, Mr. Knight asked for your presence immediately."

I forgot! I stood up quickly, I arranged my cloth and hair before coming out.

To see a Lady. "Follow me." She said. I followed behind her. Inspecting the whole place.

Till we reached a door. It has 'Xavier Knight' labeled on it.

Oh God, this was it. He was going to fire and then sue me.

She opened the door and motioned for me to enter.

I entered hesitantly.

"So, you don't know him?" I heard Xavier's voice.
