Wounded Hearts

Chapter 40: Crazy

Faith's POV

I stood there eyes wide at what was in front of me. I heard a gasp from behind me as I felt Leo behind grabbed from behind which I assume Kate did. I shook my head and scoffed at the disgusting scene in front of me. A woman was sitting on top of a non-moving Atlas and was kissing him furiously. 

"Wow" I mocked, causing the couple to jump and stare back at me. "So this is what you have been doing for the full week?....I must say Mr Williams, you seriously are something else" I said with disgust. 

He instantly pushed the woman from him and rushed towards me with red eyes. "This isn't what it looks like, I swear Faith.....I swear on my love for you.....I did nothing, she-", "I didn't ask for your explanation Mr Williams, I don't care what you do in your private life" I cut him off. He trailed his eyes all over my face as if he hasn't seen me in years. 

"Faith I-"

"I actually thought you were a good father Mr Williams. Did you know what was happening behind your back while you were busy with your mistress?...did you know your son had ran into my office crying because his father wasn't there to protect him?" I hissed at him in anger. 

"W-what?...no Faith you are misunderstanding she is nothing me....she isn't my mis-". I ignored him and brought Leo up to the front. "Look at your son" I raised my voice. "Do you see this?" I pointed to Leo's red cheek. 

Atlas's jaw clenched in anger when he saw the  mark on his son's face. He quickly picked his son and caressed his face. I glanced at the pathetic woman behind who was now looking down in fear and nervousness, sweat forming on her temples. "Leo....who did this to you?" Atlas asked in anger, rage shown in his eyes. Leo cried and pointed his finger towards the woman behind him who was now looking at Leo with wide, fearful eyes. Atlas put Leo down and slowly stalked towards the woman. 

I mentally scoffed feeling stupid to not know who was behind all this mess. I should have remembered that little threat she gave me at work. My eyes snapped towards the couple when I heard a loud echo. 

Clara was now on the floor, sobbing while holding her throbbing cheek. "ATLAS" Kate shouted in shock. I stood there shocked at what I saw. I glanced back at Kate and saw her taking Leo out of the room in hurry while Dave stared at the scene in shock.

"How. f*****g. DARE. you. touch. my. son?" he asked in a menacing voice. Clara weakly stood up and started begging for his forgiveness. "I-I'm sorry Atlas....I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt him....I really didn't. He.....he kept shouting and it was getting annoying and I-" "SHUT UP YOU f*****g b***h" he shouted making me flinch. It reminded me of the times he used to insult and hit me. 

He grabbed her hair, fisting it in his hands. "GET.THE.FUCK.OUT.OF.MY.HOUSE.RIGHT.NOW!" he gritted out ever so slowly which caused not only me but everyone goose bumps.

She eagerly nodded her head and began to run out until he stopped her. "you are fired" he spat causing her to sob as she ran out of the room. I turned my head to look at him once again before turning around to leave his room. I had nothing else to do here. 

Suddenly he caught my wrist and pulled me back. "Dad, please can you leave us alone for a few minutes?" Atlas asked while keeping his eyes on my face. Dave cleared his throat and agreed, shutting the door behind him. 

His eyes stared on my face intensely not once taking his eyes away. It was now creeping me out and making me uncomfortable so I slightly pushed him away taking my wrist out of his hold. "She isn't my mistress, after your PA called me and told me what was happening at the company I decided to call Clara over to send in some files but instead of bringing any files she decided to seduce me. I didn't do anything...I-" 

"Did I ask you to explain?" I cut him off with a blank expression

"No, but you needed to know" he said

I scoffed and rolled my eyes. "Your son isn't my responsibility, he is your son and your responsibility. You should be protecting your son from your whores instead of him running to me. Like I said I am not his mother. I don't want to hurt the child's feelings but you also need to tell him to stop calling me his mama" I gave him a irritated look. 

He stood there silent still staring at my face. I frowned at his reaction. His lips were in a thin line, no expression shown on his face. Something was definitely wrong with him. Something seemed off but I shrugged it off. 

"Why are you staring at me like that?" I asked him.

He continued gazing at me with so much intensity which started to warm my face up. 

"f**k, you are so sexy" he suddenly muttered 

I felt heat rush up to my cheeks while I stood there shocked giving him a 'are you kidding me?' look. 

"Can't you take this seriously?. Your son was just hurt by your PA and here you are trying to flirt with me?" I fumed. 

Silence

I huffed and turned to leave the room knowing he wouldn't answer. Before I could I touch the handle he suddenly spoke up. "Are you happy?" he asked with his deep voice causing me to stop. 

I felt his presence behind me, his chest touching my back. "Are you happy with him?" he whispered in my ear causing me to pant a bit. I moved away from him and gave him a cold expression. "Of course I am happy, why wouldn't I be?" 

"Really?" he smirked while stalking towards me like I was his prey. "you know-" his face now very close to mine. "you are very bad at lying" he whispered in a dark tone, his breath lingering over my lips. 

I placed my hands over his chest and pushed him away making him stumble a bit. I took notice of his under bags and how much weight he had lost. "I am not lying.....I am indeed very happy. Thank you for asking" I snapped and started to make my way out of his room until he spoke making me freeze.

"Fai, Fai, Fai.........you can't leave me just like that" he tutted in a mocking way. I was taken aback from his words. "You think you can end our story just like that?.....no..no...no, this is only the beginning my angel" he said with a devilish look on his face. 

I swallowed my saliva and glared at him. "I told you Mr Williams, the day you regret will be the day I will never take you back. I told you to mark my words. Move on....focus on your son he is now your-" All of a sudden in a flash I was grabbed by my shoulders which made me jump in shock and fear. 

He gripped my arms harshly, his red eyes were now fuming in rage,  glaring into my soul. "Move on?....MOVE ON?" he yelled in my face making me flinch. I stared at him with an open mouth as his reaction just scared the s**t out of me. 

"You think just because you got married to that d**k head means I will let you go?. You think because you are now tied to that bastard means the end of you and me?" he suddenly let go and started laughing. 

I moved back in shock and disbelief. He snapped his head towards me in a flash and gave me the creepiest smirk I have ever seen on my face. "I know why you did it" he chuckled. I moved back until I hit the wall. 

His face then changed into a sad expression. "You are taking revenge aren't you?....you want to hurt me like I hurt you right?" he asked with unshed tears. I just stood there numb, shocked, frozen. I couldn't do anything but watch him. 

"Fai...I....everyone left me.....you left me. We....we promised to be together with each other" A tear fell out of his eye. "But I ruined that didn't I?....I....I got married.....I f****d another girl...." he grabbed my hand and started to hit it on his face making me tear up. "Hit me.....hit me" he used my hand to slap him. 

"I hurt you didn't I?. How many times did I slap you?....4?....7?" he continued slapping his face with my hand. "S-stop...stop....let go" I whispered with tears trying to pull my hand away but his grip was too tight. 

"I'm sorry" he whispered and let go of my hand moving back. He turned around and gripped onto his hair. "Go Faith......" he whispered.

"GET OUT FAITH...GO AWAY....GO" he shouted making me flinch. I gave him a sad look and quickly left his room, rushing down the stairs into my car. My heart was pounding against my chest. I sat in my car and broke down. I clutched onto my chest in pain. "What has happened to you?" I whispered.

After all the abuse and humiliation he had caused me, I never wanted him to end up like this. I glanced at his window from above and saw him staring at me from above with an intense gaze. His shirt buttons were slightly opened from the top and I swear I saw redness pooling out. 

was it blood?

no it couldn't be?

I quickly drove off home with the thoughts of what just happened. 

Why did I feel something bad was going to happen?

A ringtone snapped me out of my thoughts making me jump. I answered the call while using my ear piece.

"Hello" I said with a shaky voice

"Home....RIGHT NOW" a voice demanded
