Craig is eating with Gregory at the dinning. Good morning, Whitney voice come up, Craig nodded.
How was your night? Gregory asked. I am fine.
Grace come out with her bag.
Grace, where are you going with a bag? I am moving in with Kingsley.
Wait, don't leave, we do quarrel more than this before, please!
Whitney was almost in tears.
Silly girl, I am not leaving because of that, my chamber is closer to Kingsley place and you know we both are in same chamber, so I thought of moving there, I will also come around and you can visit me over there.
Fine! She pout, hugging Whitney.
Hey slow down baby, if Cathy find out you are crying more lately, she will get sad.
Whitney pushed her slightly.
Go on.
Alright, bye Gregory and Craig
She decided to leave after the fight last night because Craig had told her that they should end the pretence that Cathy is no longer there and anytime she kissed him, he felt dirty.
So there is no need staying, Gregory is not even her friend, when she left, Whitney phone ring, looking at the caller, it Cathy she smiled.
Cathy! Thank God you called, I missed you.
I missed you too, how are you?
Are you calling because of my note? What note?
You did not receive it.
Listen, I don't know the rubbish you are talking about, is just that this days I am so busy with that demon of a principal and...
Cathy, let me have your address? Alright, I live...
Tony hit the phone from her hand it fell into the water in the sink.

Sorry, I didn't mean to. She grabbed the phone, she dismantle it.
It's okay, you should get dress too, I need to go to the office now, if I get late Barrister Dickson third, will kill me.

Whitney try to call Cathy back but the line is off.
Shit! She curse under her breath. Why did she have to switch off her phone?
She stand to leave.
You are leaving? Yes, I will be fine, don't worry about me.
Whitney was leaving when Brian walk in, he want to hug her but she pushed him.
Are you mad at me? No, I am late, welcome. She walked passed him, Craig wipe his lips with the napkin.
Welcome Brian, I go on now. Brian smile and Walk away, lan is outside, he get the car ready, sitting in the car, Craig look at Gregory.
Don't you think that Tony doesn't want Cathy to communicate with Whitney?
Gregory look at him, he is wondering how his cousin mind work.
Why did you think so?
I know she received the message because it shows delivered but she didn't see it, it only means one thing, that Tony was the one who received it and delete it.
Craig, your hatred for...
It's fine, I hate him, so I give up.
Craig...

Okay sir.
Craig get to the steering, Gregory look at him, that look is a sign for him not to drive fast.
Yes boss.
Whitney, I need you in my office and you don't disturb me, who ever look for me, I am not chance.
Whitney sighed bitterly, she go behind him, he turned the laptop to Whitney, she go through the cases.
Barrister Leonard draw closer to her, he inhale her smell.
Sir!
Relax, you are a very attractive girl, I see why Gregory want to protect you.
You know Greg? Barrister Leonard didn't reply, he kissed her neck and pull on his legs.
Craig and Gregory are right in front of the secretary.

Where is your boss?
Oh, he is not around.
Fine, let's see Whitney.
Sir, the girl went out. Craig look at the bag at the other table.
Did she go without her bag? Craig asked pointing to her bag, Craig look at Gregory, they turned, they were already at the office door.
Sir...
She hit her head on her palm, Gregory eyes turned red, Barrister Leonard hand is all over Whitney, she is struggling with him but her strength is no much for barrister Leonard, he wants to kiss her
Gregory pulled Whitney from his hand, he pushed the chair, Barrister Leonard fall to the floor, he hit him.
Craig grab a seat, looking at Gregory beating Barrister Leonard.
Stop it! Stop it!
Whitney cry, the secretary was just standing, there is nothing she can do, the boss have goof badly, he need to pay for his retribution
Craig, please stop him
No, let him teach him lesson. Craig said to Whitney.
Please, I am sorry, it will not happen again. Barrister Leonard beg him. Please!
The pleading was much Gregory felt sorry for him.
Let's go. Craig look at him. Come on.
You are kidding me? Saying that, he knows Craig is not satisfied with what he have done. I can't see blood, I need blood.
In a blink, Craig hit his face, his nose, mouth is bleeding badly with just one punch of him.
Craig grab him from the floor, he is just like a toy for him.
Please, I...
I warn you, I told you not to mess with me again or I will kill you.
He press his neck, blood is coming out.
You should know I am a monster, I am not as kind as him.
He hit his head to the wall, Craig remember the pain he went through and lost Cathy because of his stupidity.
As he hit him with all the pain in his heart, Gregory know that Craig might kill him and Whitney tears is running no Stop.
Craig, stop it, that is enough. Gregory pull his hand from Barrister Leonard, he let go of him, he fall to the ground.
Whitney look at him, he turned his face from her, they leave Barrister Leonard on the floor.
Barrister Leonard, are you alright? Idiot, I am in pain and you are talking nonsense.
Whitney is crying in the car and she looks at Craig.
Stop looking at me like that, how can you feel sorry for a man that almost rape you? I am not crying because of him, what if he sue you?
He wouldn't dare. Craig coarse voice came up.
I don't want to drag your name into my problem.
Will you shut up! Craig hoarse voice made her choke, Gregory hit his head.
Will you stop scaring her? She is not Cathy.
She is very lucky she is not, I would had beaten her, for not telling me that bastard is harassing her, when she knows I hate to see another man hand on her
Is it because you felt that Don Mask have his way with her that is why you stop caring for me?
Craig countenance change, his eyes darkened, his aura is dangerous, he grip the steering, the speed is much, in no time, they are at the mansion.
Whitney stop it, just let him be.
Whitney and Gregory walked inside, Craig couldn't take it, he drive to Cathy's office, he knows the place, he has been there before
He wants to see cathy, her face looks so tired, she is really stress, Craig pull his door to go to her, he saw a man approaching her.

Okay, just call me cathy. He nodded to her, he pull the car door for her, Craig look at the body build of the man, he doesn't look like a cabman.
Whitney is crying frustratingly, Gregory is consoling her, he had texted Brian what happened to Whitney.

Brian rush in.
