Chapter 4: Chapter 4
Why?
It's wet. Cathy face go all sour, she knows that Whitney had cried through the night and her food is not touch. Did you...
Cathy! She called to stop her, so she just go inside, to get him juice. Gregory notice something is not right, he thinks if she is a bed wetter, he shakes his head. I didn't... Cathy was coming back because it's a small apartment, she was shock that Whitney want to explain to him.
Here, have some juice.
Thanks! He sit and look back at Whitney. You didn't do what? He wants explanation, Cathy just shakes her head all man are the same, there is this one standing a few minutes ago like a lost child, now is all authoritative. Whitney, you should go and bath before you infect us with your dirt while Gregory feel his eyes with pictures. Whitney gasped for air, she walked away, as Gregory watch his eyes darkened, almost the entire album was filled with Whitney and George, Cathy notice it.
That is my brother George, he is very fun of Whitney, she is George's Princess. As she was explaining to him, Gregory look at her, how can a girl read his thoughts, she is just as queer as the one who is in love with her, he knows his cousin might be madly in love with her. Brother can do anything to make her happy.
What are you two talking about? Her eyes catch the album in Gregory's hand, she grabbed it in a hurry, she didn't know that was the album Cathy had given him, she knows the next picture will be worse. Why do you close it? You should watch this other one.
If it's not this one then it is no one. Are you mad at me? She pout and held her ears, whenever she get Gregory's angry, he pulled his face to her to show he forgive her, she pulled him by the chin that is how they behave towards each other back then, Gregory smile. Cathy know that Whitney and George play really close and the act of Whitney is not that of flirting but what George and Whitney had is siblings love but this boy before her love Whitney but she doesn't know and Cathy is not ready to let Whitney get hurt.
Have you eaten? Whitney asked, he wanted to shake his head but his tummy growl. You naughty boy, you are hungry and you are telling lies. She pulled his chin, he smiled in a second he pulled her into a hug, he had been dying to hug her and he had made up his mind that he is going to hug her even with this little thing acting like a woman in front of him.
Ahem! Whitney! She called her. Yes, do you want to eat too? Yes, do you have food? Gregory know that Cathy want to get Whitney back to track, it seems she is losing her senses and clipping too much on him. Why don't we go to my condominium? You can cook there.
No! I will not allow it. Cathy said almost like a big sister protecting her kid sister when in a real sense they are both same age, she is just a few months older than her.
Do you think I will hurt her? I didn't say.. she didn't finish before Gregory speak up. You can come with her, if you don't trust me. Gregory know that is the only way to drag Cathy to come with him, he needs to drag this little one, Cathy can't afford to let her angel go alone with a man who has a werewolf as a betrothed but she had some strange feeling for Craig, she had an endless dream about she and Craig in a romantic relationship, that was the main reason she want to go to Whitney before she met Gregory, she have no choice than to agree with Gregory.
Fine but I don't think is today. Of cause, maybe we should go to a nearby eatery, to grab a quick bite.
I know somewhere affordable we can get a good food. Cathy said in a hurry forgetting that Gregory is worth billions of dollars. Sure Greg, you will like it. He didn't say anything, they both walked behind Gregory, he was really an elite from his wears, appearance, the way he walked elegantly, to financial aspect he is flawless, he start driving.
Greg!
What is it Whitney? Is this your car? He never expected her to asked, she and Cathy had never enter such a machine before now, he scratched his head. Go on. His phone ring. Pick your call. Gregory look at it, Cathy was looking at his countenance, it was not good, so she just assumed that maybe his betrothed was the one calling him.
Whitney can't you see that he is driving? Since when do you start been careful? come Greg leave this friend of mine pick your call. Before she could pick the call for Gregory, voicenote, so she press it.
Oh! You don't want to come home? You gallivanting around town with that prostitute... Cathy close her eyes, Whitney tears drop from her eyes, the voicenote continue. You left me to go be with that social climber, that pig that is as cheap as a use.. Gregory didn't wait for it to finish, he end it. I am...
Stop! Stop the car! She yelled.
I am sorry dear, I didn't... If you don't stop I will jump out. Gregory pullover, she get down so fast, Cathy get down as well, she and Whitney mount on a motorcycle, the bike just take a turn.
Pack! She stop it, she get down. You can go, I will get another.
Whitney; where are you going? Don't follow. She mount on another. Whitney! She called. Don't worry I will be fine, go on. The motorcycle zoom off, leaving Cathy behind, Gregory was watching, seeing that Whitney had mount on another, Cathy pay the former and asked him to leave, Gregory cross without looking, he almost get hit by a moving vehicle, she closed her eyes in fear.
Don't you all think, I can't handle all of this. She said in pain, she has been stress because of Whitney, seeing that he is almost hit, give her more pain; Gregory didn't know what to do, he pull her into a hug. I am sorry. She finally regain herself.
Sorry, you have to deal with two annoying girls. Gregory smile. I thought brave girls don't get scared.
Don't be mean. Where is Whitney going to? I don't know but I will just go to her apartment maybe she is going there. I am coming with you. No, I will do that myself. Can I have your number so you tell me when you found her? No problem. She brought out her phone and collect the number. I go on now. Gregory drive back was like forever, he had hit the steering over and over in frustration, he really wants to get fast to his condominium but that is not possible, he is far in thought when he eventually get to the condominium, he enter his private elevator, he wasn't caught up for any drama of girls
Where are you coming from? Jane, back off. Really? You spend an entire morning out there with a low life. Jane, I have told you times without number to stay off my case but you don't listen, you are trying my patient. That woman is a prostitute. He pushed Jane to the wall, Craig open the door and meet the two quarreling. You are not allowed to call anyone that is dear to me names.
Oh! It's finally out, you are sleeping with that whore. Jane, you should know your limit.
My limit? You are my betrothed. No, in the eyes of my parents but not in my eyes.
Fine, you should care for her well because I will make her crippled. Craig eyes bulge out, Gregory pushed Jane more, her back hit the wall. You know me, no one will tell you about me Jane, you should stay away from her if you don't want my madness.
I don't make empty threaten, I will kill her. If you provoke me, I will lock my lips with her right in front of you and you will do nothing. He grabbed his keys back, he dart out, Craig dart after him, he ignores the elevator, so do Craig, as they passed any one around couldn't help but drool over them, on a norm it will bothered them but it didn't, he get to the car, his driver was ready to get the key from him.
Sir...
Get lost! He yelled at Ian, his driver, Ian was scared, he had never seen him like that for the passed three years he had worked with him, he knows that Craig is the cold one not that he is wicked but his facial appearance is a enough to scared people, he just step outside and he get into the car, so do Craig. Where are you going? I don't even know. Craig tap his shoulder and run his hand on Gregory's back, the only one that knows Gregory is weak is Craig and Gregory is the only one that also knows Craig is soft hearted, in a second, Gregory had hugged Craig, phone ring.
Who is calling? Oh! That could be Whitney's phone. The phone had fallen from her bag when she was in a hurry to get down.
Go on and pick before it end, baby in love. He tease Gregory.
Maybe you should answer it.
No!
He said almost screaming now is Gregory's turn to tease him.
Chicken in love.
He run his hand on his neck, the phone ring again
Hello Cathy!
Gregory? Is she with you? No oh! Is like her phone fell from her bag, have you seen her? No, I have gone to our favorite spot but she is not there. I am sorry, I didn't mean to hurt her.
Don't beat yourself too much, you are not the cause of it, she had other issues with her...
With who? Go on and tell me. Please, I can't tell. But... Craig knows if he is too pushy, they will get no information from her, he grabbed the phone. Hello! Cathy go mute, Craig voice is cool, it's sounds nice more, she is trying to compose herself, so as to sound normal. Why is she not talking to me? Did I say something wrong?
No, I am here.
Ahem! call us, if you are able to get her, or hear any news about her.
I will. She didn't say anything else, the line just went off.
Woe! She end the call. Maybe you should used one of your charm on her. Craig smile and pushed his head. What are you going to do now? He throw Whitney's phone to him. What should I do with it? I want the phone unlocked, I want to be able to get access to everything on it in less than an hour. Craig eyes open wide, Cathy didn't bother that her friend phone will be invaded because she Lock it with her face and some apps with her fingerprint but she didn't know she was dealing with a demon.
Do you want to invade her privacy boss? If I am your boss, you will not argue with me. Fine, but you should eat before I return, you may need whole lot of strength to handle. Go on. Gregory said to him, when Craig left he has waited for him, in all this time he kept calling Cathy but still no news, he is dead frustrated, Jane had gone to the pool side to cool off her nerves, he picks his car's key to go out again when the door open wide.
You are going out? I just can't sit here and do nothing. Here is the phone. Gregory grabbed the phone from him, the first thing was her message.
That already? What was I supposed to do? Look at her pictures, fine maybe that too but for now it's not relevant. You should be mindful of the things you look at...
