A Trillionaire’s Revenge

"I really do not have the strength, nor do I have the time to exchange words with you and remember," I get up, walking to her. I continue, "You will give me the respect I deserve as Luke's wife and as the lady of the house. Do you get that?" I spit, a sudden surge of anger filling me.

She claps and laughs. "I've been with Lucas for years. I know everything about him, what he likes and what's good for him." She points at me, "And you're definitely not it, Natalie!" She yells, anger and jealousy evident on her face.

Luke enters the room before I'm able to speak.

"Laurel!" He yells and she turns to look at him. She tries to hug him. He doesn't let her. "Don't you ever speak to Natalie that way, ever again. You will give her the same respect you give me and you will speak to her with respect. Understand?" He says harshly. I want to smile, but I don't.

In a split second, she begins to cry. I roll my eyes and massage my temple.

"Bu—she tries to speak but Luke doesn't let her.

"Get out, Laurel." He says and she rushes out crying. Luke comes to hug me. "I'm sorry I didn't listen to you earlier when Laurel has clearly been the cause of everything from the beginning."

"Of course. We're building that, aren't we?" And my heart drops at his response. Everything would really be over if Luke found out Caleb Dunes was actually Rocky.

"We will be hosting a dinner here tomorrow evening, Natalie. I need you to take care of everything. The Graysons, the Cole's, a few people from the office and Caleb Dunes." He says as he begins to take off his clothes. My heartbeat increases once again and I begin to panic quietly.

"Caleb Dunes?" I ask.

"Yes. Uh, the guy from the office earlier today."
