Fifth Vow: Rival Takes Over

The man smirked matching his pace, this is the man who he saw in the report on of his stated. The blonde man had eyes on Catherine for the last two years. They reported once every week who she was with and all her interactions with men. "Ah, Grey Kingsley. I didn't know you and Rosie were a 'thing'." He said with distaste.

"You see, me and my friends here just stopped by to grab a bite. I am Victor Amadeus Rovanovich. I'm sure you have heard about me." He reached out his hand. Grey gladly shook it with a tight grip. He smirked at his new rival.

Catherine clarified. "Grey, calm down sheesh. He is my best friend-" Grace interrupted. "You have someone before me?!"

"Yes Grace, I may be an introvert but I'm not a total loner." Her comment made Victor laugh. "I do hope Catherine will introduce me to you in a more appropriate place next time." Victor examined Grey from head to toe. 'I am clearly better Rosie.' "So Rosie, your number is still the same right?" Catherine nodded.

"I'll call you later, okay?" Catherine hugged him earnestly. He placed his hand on her head, patting it slowly. "We'll catch up in a much better time, okay? It was supposed to be a surprise. Too bad, we met here." Catherine chuckled removing herself from Victor. "Okay, we'll be going home now though."

Grey interrupted their conversation. He just couldn't contain his anger and jealousy any further. He couldn't even breathe in the same space as Victor. He knew Victor as the son and heir of the Rova Electronics. One of the biggest manufacturers in the game. He could rival his wealth. They were on the same page.

"Cathy needs to go home no Victor. I hope you understand. Don't keep your friends waiting, go have fun." It is evident on his face a pang of hate and envy. Catherine held Grey's hand emphasizing that they really have to go. Catherine needed to separate Grey and Victor.

Victor is taken aback by Catherine's gesture. She held Grey's hand. In front of him. The man who stayed with Catherine in everything. 'It wouldn't be long before I separate this bastard from my Rosie.' He sighed. "Alright then Rosie, get home safely." He hugged Catherine one last time while looking at Grey with a mocking smirk on his face. Grey tried his best to suppress his urge to punch Victor's face. On top of that, he kissed Catherine's forehead before letting her go.

'Why you son of a bitch?!' Grey took Catherine's hand and called Grace. They have to leave. Now.

Grace didn't pay attention to the trio's heated argument. She busied herself talking to one of Victor's friends. "Grace! Let's go!" Grace nodded. "Bye boys, call me Mark." She winked at Mark before joining Catherine and Grey.

They got inside the car and the ride home is filled with tension that needed to be released. When they arrived, Grace went inside first leaving Catherine and Grey to talk. Grey looked at Catherine with fury hinted in his eyes. Catherine looked at his eyes for a split second before looking at the ground. She didn't know how to respond to Grey. She didn't even realize what went wrong.
