That's why I hate him

♥......♥

My parents called me downstairs. When I came ready to spit the truth on his face, they gave him a go-ahead to propose.

I was so confused about what was going on until he got down on his knees and submitted to me.

<< What the! >>

I didn't want to say this in Infront of my parents, but he left me no choice.

"You have the gods to come to my house, when you know I feel nothing for you! Well, let me make it noticeably clear. I will never love you. I never had mutual feelings for you! So don't ever think I loved you" I roared and my parents stood up to stop me

"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry to disappoint your heartless and negative wishes but I will not let you all ruin my life. I have a future and want to archive that with ease. I cannot even love a man not to talk about getting married. I am so disappointed right now. Just because you want to receive help from his parent's wealth, you choose to sell your daughter out!?" my parents gave me a dangerous look

"I don't care if they want to benefit from that. All I want is you!" Leonel let out

"You need medical attention. Didn't you listen to what I said or are you going deaf?" I rejected and he got on his feet.

"I'll give you some time to think about it,"

"There is nothing to think about! You are psycho and need to go check your self up." I responded and evacuated to my room.

I don't know what happened after that and didn't want to find out. After that day I didn't him again. He packed out of the hood with his parents.

On my side, my parents took more advantage to impose everything on me which I disagreed with as usual.

A year later, my so-called parents drove me out of the house with the excuse that I was a failure.

I got myself something to do far away from my home. I had to enter college that year, but I wasn't opportune to.

I lived with a friend Katty who was living alone as a student.

I started practicing independence. I had to work to live. Though Katty helped me a lot, it wasn't enough for us. I needed to do something.

I felt like I was a burden to her so I schemed on having my niche. Since I started working. At least I could afford it.

Within those moments I met Apriva and Ciara who also assisted me. They did have their own stories and struggles of life. But never for once did they let me down when I needed them.

We had such a strong connection and have known each other for a long time now.

They were and still are the best friends ever. They encouraged and lifted me positively.

Katty sometimes attended the tourist classes and researched what was helpful to fulfill my desire of being a one.

I learned a lot from them and their families welcomed me with ease.

Well, I knew Katty personally in high school. She was a random student but later turned to be my close friend. But now they all are sisters to me.

To conclude, Leonel is the main reason my parents disowned me. I did find out my parents wanted their wealth. But because I declined their son's proposal, they lost that opportunity.

That is why I HATE him so much!

*End of Flashback*

"Do you guys know each other?" My boss asked

"Yeah we do so well" Leonel answered still looking at me

I just stood there giving him a disgusted look.

"I'm sorry for interrupting Sir but I just came to collect my files," I motioned towards my boss.

"That's ok. Here you go. I thought you'll be absent today for the first time" My boss remarked handing me the files.

I collected it apologizing "Sorry Sir but something came up"

"What's important now is you didn't miss this opportunity,"

"What opportunity?" I implored

"Good question.." Leonel responded

"I proposed to your boss a job which involves employees from this branch. And he picked you as his right hand to be transferred to the main corporation," he elaborated

<< Damn! This is a tempting proposal.>>

Yet, it feels so strange. Why will my boss choose me of all the workers here?

I would have nothing to do with this man. I had planned on quitting soon. So, I will stick to it.

"We're waiting for your response...Brithney" Leonel said

I looked from him to my boss and back to him and the other men before saying "Can I please think about it?"

"No time for that. We your response now" My boss declared formally and I started feeling he has been bribed or something.

I thought I could go away giving them the impression that I will accept their proposal. But they gave me no choice to deny before them.

"I'm sorry I'm not interested," I said looking at Leonel in the eyes and talking like we have never had a connection. He gave me an impressed look.

"Ok. Since you need time to think about it, we'll give you time" Leonel replied

I almost wanted to scream saying NO but I swallowed my pride trying to behave at my best before everyone.

Most especially for my boss. I didn't want him sacked because of my misbehavior.

I sigh "Ok.."

They all smiled. And I cried in silence.
