Chapter 57

He had threw her out of his house instantly and cut all connections with her, at that time she was pleased to be free from his clutches. She had met another man who was also wealthy and he fit perfectly into what she wanted in a man. They would do it everyday if possible and he would take her anywhere and anytime but slowly it became more of a habit to him than it was to her. Even when she wasn't ready he would force his way on her or worst he would beat the hell out of her and still have her way with her.

It wasn't that there weren't any other good men out there but she finally understood the phrase that 'the devil you know is better than the angel you just meant.' 

"i know you were aware that i was going to be here today," Shannon said. Stephan wasn't a man to be clueless of his environment even though he always played a blind eye to certain things he wasn't and Shannon learnt this while she was his woman. "We need to talk," she continued hoping to get some kind of response from him but Stephan said absolutely nothing rather he busied himself with the view of the clouds and he seemed lost in thoughts about something.

Shannon waited patiently not knowing what to sat to intitiate a conversation with him, she was trying to be mindful of her words as she was fully aware that Stephan's mood wasn't a stable one. When she was about to open her mouth to say something she saw him tilt his head to face her as she sighed in relief that he was finally willing to talk to her.

"Leave," he said looking straight into her eyes without blinking as he stared back at the window. Shannon couldn't believe her ears, she knew he was going to be still mad at her but she had hoped he would at least let them have a conversation about what had happened between them.

"I am sorry," she apologized staring at the floor of the plane. "I shouldn't have taken your..."

"Didn't you hear him?" she heard a voice interrupt her as she stared up looking at Sarah who seemed pissed off by her presence. She had been busy trying to gather her words, she didn't even notice when Sarah had gotten from her seat and was now standing before her.

Sarah had noticed when Shannon went to take Dawn seat next to Stephan, she knew the little cunt was up to no good and she wasn't going to sit back and watch someone over ride her friend just like that, not when things were already going smoothly for Dawn and Stephan.

Where are you going babe?" Matteo had asked her when she rose to her feet the moment she spotted Shannon.

"I am pressed," she had replied because she knew Matteo would not have been in support of her involving herself in issues like this.

Sarah was sure Matteo was in disbelief right now at the sight of her talking to Shannon instead of actually going to the ladies as she had informed him but she didn't care.

"Excuse me?"

"Are you deaf?" Sarah asked loud enough for everyone on the plane to hear and finally stare at the both of them.

"You can't just come here and invade our discussion," Shannon replied also loudly not caring if everyone was now staring at them. Who the hell did this Sarah think she was? Anna had informed her about her and Matteo, she thought Sarah was with some Alberto guy back then so why Matteo. Even if she broke up with her boyfriend couldn't she find someone else, did she have to steal someone else's man?

"He clearly doesn't want to talk to you."

"He can speak for himself."

"He told you to leave or are you now..."

"The two of you should get out of my sight, your bickering is getting on my nerves," Stephan barked at the both of them waving his hand like he was chasing a fly away. Sarah stared at Shannon giving her the i told you so look as Shannon hissed at her got up from the seat and went back to her seat, as she was going back to her seat she crossed path with Dawn who was already coming out of the toilet and had seen a little bit of what was going on.

Shannon stared at her angrily and brushed her shoulder on her nearly falling her down as she hissed silently and headed for her seat.

Dawn turned around to stare at her then back at Sarah who was already going back to her seat pleased with the current outcome, she took her seat slowly looking confused at what might have happened while she was in the toilet. Why was the lady suddenly trying to get her to fall down?

"Is everything okay?" She asked Stephan with a puzzled look. He stared at her and stretched his arm around her shoulder pulling her in for a side hug as he positioned her comfortably and covered her with a blanket. Dawn wanted to protest about the blanket but she realized she was even feeling a bit cold.

"Yes," he replied planting a kiss on her forehead.

"Are you sure?" she would definitely still ask him when they are all alone as it seemed their was more to what was going on.

"You should get some sleep," he beckoned her smiling at her as she smiled back at him. 

"That little bitch," Shannon hissed staring at Stephan plant a kiss on her forehead.

"She is the one connected to Gonzales," Anna replied. 

"Really? is she owing him money or what?" Shannon asked staring at Dawn as she held Stephan's hand and closed her eyes slowly.

"Yes, Matteo said she is owing Gonzales some money and Stephan is willing to pay double once he sees Gonzales."

"Really?" Shannon said still staring at the two love birds, the story didn't add up. She remembered she was owing some people money while she was with Stephan and he had been so mad at her and didn't speak to her till he was able to sort out the bills so how was he this way with this lady. He wasn't only loving, he was publicly displaying his affection to her, which wasn't something Stephan was fond of. yes, if you were his woman he would let the whole world know about it but public affection wasn't his thing.

...........................................................................

Olivia had fallen sick over the couple of days, the death of her child had taken a toll on her, even when Travis informed her that they had to change their location due to security reasons, she had hopped into the car without protesting of saying anything.

Travis had been stunned by her actions but he decided to keep it to himself, he had barely been at home but when he got a call from Stephan he had come home straight to pick up Olivia. He usually got daily update on her she was doing from his maid but he didn't know it was that bad until he actually set eyes on her. She looked whiter than normal which meant that she had lost a lot of blood or was lacking it and she also looked lean. She was truly not eating anything like the maids had informed him.

If anyone had told him that Olivia would turn out to be like these he wouldn't have believed it, he wondered if she ever looked at herself in the mirror lately. The sophisticated Olivia he knew always dressed well and would do her make up on a regular but now her face was bare and during the car ride he found himself staring at her bare face and chapped lips.

He rarely saw her without makeup and to see her like these was a sight he was sure as hell not going to forget.

He never knew the death of the child would affect her these way.

"Olivia," he called out to her for the fifth time but she seemed lost in thought as she stared outside the window. They had gotten to their destination but it seemed she had zoned out because though she was looking outside and the car was clearly not moving, she seemed unaware of her surrounding.

Olivia still couldn't believe she had lost her baby just like that, she had been so mad with rage when she found out it was because of Dawn and her connection to one Gonzales man. How was Dawn issue any of her business? she had questioned herself every night as she cried herself to sleep.

Not only had Dawn taken away Stephan from her, she had also killed her baby. Olivia gritted her teeth at the thought of it, she was also informed that Blaire head was cut off from her head like she was an animal in a slaughter house.

Her reason for tagging along was because she had overheard Travis saying he was going to meet up with Dawn and Stephan immediately.

Once she laid her hands on Dawn she had plans of doing the same thing she had done to her.
