Levi tilted his head as he looked at Brittany one more time.Could it be that she was jealous? But what would she have seen that would make her to be jealous?He did not have the opportunity to ask her all his questions because almost immediately, Alexia jumped on him. "Levi!" She screamed at the top of her voice, excitement oozing out of her. Brittany took a pause and leaned on the car, observing her with a dangerous glint in her eyes. The scene brought a smile to Levi's lips. "Alexia," he pulled him slightly away from him. "How can I be of help to you? What's making you so excited?" He asked. "Well, I just wanted to thank you. I didn't know a better way of doing it. Sorry if I broke your spine." "Of course you didn't. It will take more than that to break my spine. But still you haven't answered my question."He already knew what the answer to the question was but still, his ears itched to know why she would engulf him in such a big bear hug. "Okay, if you must know, I overhe
Levi could sense the jealousy that filled the room. He looked at Brittany with wide eyes. He couldn't believe that she would be so protective. He loved that side of her. The possessive side that wanted nothing more than to protect her own. It filled him with joy that she was that way.Made him more happy that he was able to bring out that side of her. But his poker game was strong and Levi placed a very good poker face that none of them could tell what he was thinking. "Umm, Alexia. I don't think that is possible. I want to have lunch with Brittany and only Brittany," he said calmly. He did not have to be told twice but he knew Alexia type. Hell, he had seen a thousand of her type all his life. They won't care about anyone who doesn't have money and once you start making a little, they become obsessed and start holding on as if their life depended on it. He did not want that. He wanted a real woman and he did not have to look that far to find one. She was standing beside him, t
Levi could hear the light groan that came from Brittany when they were rudely interrupted. He knew she hated it more than anything else. She looked flushed. Her cheeks were red and her eyes became watery. Levi feared that she may cry, or worse do something unthinkable and walk away. He wished more than anything that he could express his feelings to her. But what if he did and she walked away when she gets to find out how badly people want him dead?What if these same people resume using her as a means of getting to him?His uncle had worked super hard for everything that he had. He would not allow his mistakes to take it all away in a blink of an eye. It was bad enough that his mom could be used to get to him. He couldn't allow the world know that the was a pretty blonde they could use as well. And so he tried his best to bottle up his emotions and ensure that no one knew about it. But still, when he was this close to her, he couldn't help but want to hold her hand and show her
He could sense trouble coming his way. He pulled out his phone and sent a distress message to Mark. He knew that the man was somewhere around. He was always following him wherever he went, like a little fly that he couldn't get rid of but still, he had to be a hundred percent sure that the man was around in case they got attacked again. The man with the newspaper looked like a random person but with the recent happenings, Levi could not take anything for granted. Not even the fact that Davina somehow knew where he would be in the afternoon. He needed to get his facts straight to avoid endangering the lives of the people he loves. "Hello, good afternoon," Levi heard a light and tiny voice. It made him drop the menu. "Yes, we are not ready to order yet," he said and looked at Brittany. "Actually, I was sent here by my manager to tell you to kindly leave please. We don't offer services to people like you so if you could please leave."Brittany looked up at the woman. She wondered
Brittany's face flew to the side due to the impact. She wasn't outraged. Just shocked. The man actually had the audacity to lay his filthy hands on her. How was he able to own such a place when he had no respect for people?Baffled and yet angry, Brittany turned back to look at the man. She saw Levi's look of anger from her peripheral vision but what he was feeling was the least of her worries.She wanted her own thorn of flesh and she was going to get it. Levi looked at Brittany's face and it made him more angry. The small patches of redness that came as a result of the slap got his blood boiling. "Did you just slap her?" He said and turned slowly to the manager. "Oh yes I did. I don't know who raised her but since she does not want to have any manners, I feel like it is in my place to teach her some and if you don't respect yourself, you will get the same treatment," the man said proudly. Levi gripped his fist. He needed to do much more than take away this man's possession. He
"What exactly are you waiting for?" The manager shouted. "I told you that these two have been causing a lot of disturbance here. Can you please take them away so that I can finally have my peace of mind?" He ranted while the man looked at Levi again."I know you but I don't know how I do," the man said. "Allow me to jolt your memory then," Levi said and pulled out his phone. "What the hell are you still waiting for?!" The manager was outraged by their talk. "Get him out of here before I call your superior.""Stop making threats that you can't fulfil. Everyone can tell that you are bluffing," Brittany said with smut. She had grown tired of listening to him talk. "How dare you?" One of the waitress who never left her boss side during the fight finally spoke up. "Do you know who you are talking to?" "I will be mindful of the way I talk to her if I were you. You look like a pretty girl and I assure you, men love a woman who can provide for herself but if you keep talking to her lik
Levi walked slowly up to him. He circled him with a smile on his face and finally stood beside him. "You know, sir, there is a story that my mom used to love telling me about a little boy who did not know his place but was suddenly reduced to nothing because of his ignorance and pride. Since the day I heard that story, I promised myself to never be too full of myself. I told myself that I will never try to be more than I am. As a matter of fact, I promised myself that I will try to appear lesser than I am so as to not draw so much attention to myself.""I hope you know that you won't be able to tell if you are drawing good attention or bad. So I just choose to avoid it all together. I get that not everyone was raised like I was and not everyone can fully tell what kind of attention they should attract but what I don't get, and I am really hoping that you would help me, is what kind of a man beats up another girl?" Levi finished his speech and stood to watch him fumble. He had no ide
Immediately, the manger fell on his knees with his tears making contact with the floor. "Ah, sir please. Please don't do this to me. This business is all I have. And I have a family. We will all starve if you take this away from me. Please, I beg you, don't take this away from me. Away from my family." "I gave you an opportunity to save yourself and your family but you chose not to do my bidding. What then do you want from me?" "Please, I will apologize properly. Just please don't take this away from me." "It's too late Mr man. Even if I wanted to help you, this order came directly from the commissioner, so one way or the other, your little business is going to be shut down. The best you could do is just gladly hand over your key before they forcefully take it away from you." Levi gave him no more room for apologies. He was determined to make him suffer and that was exactly what was going to happen. The manager, seeing that Levi was a tough nut to crack fell on the floor at. Brit
