《Mr. Control Freak ✔》C H A P T E R 20
Advertisement
I really didn't know what this girl was up to but I couldn't control my anger when I saw that picture of me. I lost it.
I flipped her around and shoved her into the wall pinning her arms on either sides. Actually, it wasn't the picture that was pushing me to the edge but my ego. This girl is doing something to me and I am very well aware of that. I just hate to admit that. To her, of course. The weird tingling sparks that arose from my feet all the way up to my head says it all.
I was angry.
At myself.
"DELETE.IT.RIGHT.NOW." I ordered controlling myself.
Her lips were few inches away from me. Pink and full as always.
"No." she snapped. I would have fired her the second she stepped into my office but this, this stupid feeling is driving me nuts.
I tightened my grip on her wrists and a whimper left her mouth.
I know each and every thing about her. But I also know she's changed. She doesn't want to do what she used to do in her past. And that's the only thing I can see in those determined eyes.
Years ago when I last saw her, I found a cunning woman in her buried somewhere inside her. But now when I look into her eyes, all that I find is innocence and purity. It feels wrong judging her like this. But I can't forget what she did to me. Her first appearance in my life made my world come crashing down on me. I can't let her go that easily when finally I have laid my hands on her.
My gaze stumbled on her plump lips making me gulp audibly.
"Let me go." She said curtly but it caused me to press her further into the wall. She gasped.
"Delete the photo." I said again.
I was staring right into her green pools and she was doing the same. She never averted her gaze. Neither did I.
"You're hurting me." She said and a tear slid down her cheek bringing me out of my daze. I quickly removed my hands from her wrists and she briskly brought her wrists to her chest rubbing them lightly. Turning on her mobile, she opened the picture.

She slowly looked up at me and hit the delete button. I didn't miss the tear that escaped her eyes. My heart dropped at the sight of her but I just shook those thoughts away. Keeping my face stern as rock, I stepped back giving her way to leave and she ran out of the room.
I went back into my seat and clutching my head in my hands I groaned loudly.
"What have I done?!"
***
"Dwayne?" I called out as I entered my house. He was slumped on the couch in living room playing video game. I removed my suit jacket and threw it on the couch. Wearing suits on an extremely humid day sometimes seem insane. People think men like me are prone to them but hell no I hate wearing suits more than I hate that Amelia's Justin Bieber.
And if you're thinking that I did some research on this guy then yes I did. Let's say I was a bit....curious.
"Welcome!" Dwayne chirped and ran towards me. I kneeled down and his small figure jumped into my arms. I easily picked him up.
"You didn't go to Miss. Primrose's house?" I asked. Dwayne was very intelligent child. He didn't need any home tuition but just because of the other girl Madeleine he wanted to go to her house. He's just a kid. He liked her and I couldn't stop him.
"Amy gave me a day off."
I stiffened at her name.
"Why?" I asked as I reach living room and sat on the couch before placing him on my lap.
"Don't know." He said as he continued playing whatever the game was.
I was wondering why she would take a leave when I heard the most annoying voice in the world but less than Amelia's singing.
"Ricky Ricky get your lame ass up. We're going to your club." Isaac chimed as he came out of the kitchen. Isaac is my head bodyguard and pretty much my only friend on which I can trust more than myself. If it was someone else, I would have already landed a hard punch in face. But he is the most annoying person ever landed on this planet. Uh-oh

Again less than Amelia Primrose.
"I am not going." I stated as I placed Dwayne beside and stood up from the couch heading towards the stairs.
"Come on we need to go. Bianca is also there. I can't leave her on her own." He yelled from behind.
"Then go alone." I yelled back.
"Amelia's there too!" He said and I turned back abruptly. He was smirking at me.
"F*ck off." I rolled my eyes and ascended the stairs.
"It means you're coming. That's my boy!" He said as he slumped down on the couch with Dwayne.
I quickly changed into my black button down shirt and dark blue jeans. I rolled up my sleeves and went downstairs.
"Let's go. " I said to Isaac as I left my house and opened the door of my Black Buggati Veyron.
"Amelia Primrose." Isaac chimed as he extended the 'rose' of Primrose.
"Shut up. I am going because I have some work there." I tightened my grip on the steering.
"Whatever."
At this point, I realized I wasn't lying to him but myself.
After twenty minutes of drive and Isaac's continuous blabbering, I entered my club.
It had been quite a time since I came here. I looked at my side and Isaac was already gone. I began walking towards the bar but I got a glimpse of familiar red hair and I halted in my steps. I squinted my eyes to get a better view of the girl and she turned around.
It was her.
My eyes widen when I realized what she was doing. She had her arms around a guy's neck and they were dangerously close but just then she pulled away.
"hello sir." I turned around and saw bartender smiling at me. I dismissed him and looked back but she wasn't there anymore.
Panic risen inside of me and I started looking for her. I couldn't find her. Anywhere.
After looking for her on the dance floor for few minutes and failing terribly I began walking towards the restrooms. As I was passing by the bar's backside, I again got the glimpse of her red hair.
I halted and my heart beat risen.
The same guy had her pinned to the wall and his head was buried in her neck. I could see her begging and the tears that were flowing down her cheeks.
Bile rised in my throat and I inhaled deeply.
In an instant, I pulled the filthy man away from her and punched him hard in his face. He stumbled to the ground.
After throwing non stop punches in his face and releasing all my rage until he lost his conciousness, I looked back at Amelia. She had slumped down along the wall.
"Amelia." I called her but her eyes were closed. I rushed towards her and picked her up in my arms. She looked so fragile and was fitting perfectly in my arms.
I looked for Isaac but he wasn't there so I just walked out of the club with her still in my arms and placed her gently inside my car. Getting into my car, I drove off.
First I went inside her building but there was no one at home and I didn't have any key. I checked her for any bag but she hadn't any. So I just decided to take her to my house.
Entering into my house with her in my arms, I looked at Rose who was staring at me wide eyed.
"I want you to change her clothes." I said and began ascending the stairs. Reaching my room, I opened the door and placed her inside my bed.
I looked down at her. She was sleeping peacefully. I have never allowed any woman in my bed. Not even my night stands. Never ever.
"You are something, Miss. Primrose."
Giving her a last glance, I left the room.
