Chapter 5

  Hailey's POV

  To be honest, I didn't think I really fell in love with a wolf hearted man like this. "If you try stopping me one more time then I'll really show you the power of those old men." I boasted back to him.

  I showed my invitation to the guard at the entrance before walking in. There were a lot of celebrities and wealthy businessmen attending the banquet ceremony.

  Just when I saw grandfather and tried walking to him, Lillian lunged forward to me unexpectedly, tripping over me and making me lose my balance that I almost fell.

  The guests' stares were on us, every single eye inside the banquet. "Do you think by attending this party, you could rise from peasant to a phoenix?" She asked. Her hand was placed on her side waist.

  I thought she had a little brain left and now I could see she didn't. "Tyler, why don't you train your dog more effectively so she'll know when to bark or not." I rolled my eyes at them with a smirk plastered on my face.

  I knew that would annoy her a lot, "What did you just say?" She asked. Her eyes red with anger as she stared at me like she was ready to pounce on me.

  "I don't want to think your ears are starting to malfunction also right. Oh my goodness, what a pity." Everyone in the hall laughed at what I just said.

  "You are just one old cleaning housewife my husband doesn't want again. If it wasn't because you had slept with some old men to get here today, do you think you'll be here." She blurted out.

  I was thinking of waiting until my identity was announced before canceling their cooperation with the company but their irritating appearance was starting to annoy me.

  "Do you think everyone will be like you, wishing to be a mistress and destroying homes everywhere like a dog?" I pushed her back and landed her a slap on her right cheek.

  Everyone in the hall knew me since it was specially sent to everyone in the high socialites circle who knew of my true identity except for these two scum bags, I can't wait to see the look of surprise plastered on their faces.

  "How dare you push me? Who do you think you are." She tried to attack me, she was holding the bottle of wine in her hand and threw it at me.

  Her movements were so swift and fast that I had to close my eyes in shock as I froze in one place. I opened my eyes when I felt nothing touch me.

  All I could hear was the loud crunch from the glass as it hit the floor, echoing in the hall.

  I opened my eyes widely to find myself being sheltered by Kingsley.

  He protected me from the scheming couples.

  I felt a liquid drop on the floor and checked, it was blood. "You are bleeding Kingsley." I said, worried about him even though I couldn't figure out why I was so worried.

  "It's nice seeing you worry about me again but I'm fine." He smiled affectionately and pecked my forehead. I couldn't tell if he was doing it because of the deal or because he was being real.

  "You need to go to the hospital." I tried to make him but he stopped me.

  "I'm fine." He muttered. He held my hand and faced them, Tyler was the first to talk.

  "Sir, why did you protect this woman, I'm telling you, she's nothing but a slut…" Kingsley interrupted him by kicking him with his leg.

  Tyler fell to the ground groaning in pain. "How dare you call the heiress of Norway a slut? And who do you think you are to open your mouth and insult my fiancée, the fiancé of I, Kingsley Geralt, have I really been too nice to people these days?" Kingsley said.

  "What do you mean? Heiress… Norway… Fiancée…" Tyler stuttered in shock, his eyes threatening to fall from their eyeballs.

  Tyler was looking extremely shocked while staring at me. "Impossible, I was her husband for three years and she has never mentioned it to me." He screamed but no one listened to him.

  Kingsley was about to talk but I stopped him, "I'll do this myself." I walked towards him slowly and stopped in front of him intentionally pressing his fingers.

  "Have you ever thought about why an incompetent person like you could get a cooperation with the Norway group, or why your company would get better and better with different big contracts. Or why you could go public in just a space of two years."

  "You could have learned to cherish what you have without being a scumbag." I kicked him and tried to walk back to Kingsley.

  "Wait, Hailey, I'm really sorry."

  "She actually seduced me, you know I really love you, I was just confused for some moments, please give me another chance." His words were deafening to me.

  I was emotionally tortured for three years just because he had his first love that he was still holding on to.

  "You are really a scumbag." I spat at him. Brother signaled the guards to take the two of them out with Tyler screaming my name and begging for mercy.

  I rushed to Kingsley's side worried, "Kingsley are you okay?" I asked immediately, he nodded his head but I knew that was a lie.
