All the Asis members walked out of the large hall, with different opinions. "The future boss isn't gonna let any slacking off" some whispered amongst themselves. Annie watched her son walk down from the podium. She folded her hands with an angry look, "you embarrassed me there" she said as he walked past her, "that's the only way to let you know your place" Golgotha said coldly. "What did you say?" she asked as she walked to him and blocked him, he was very much taller than her so she had to look up, even the heels weren't helping.
"You had disgraced me by hanging up the call on me during my mission, that is something I can't tolerate, so I paid you back in ten folds" Golgotha said with a grin. "You bastard" she said furiously. "I'm indeed a bastard, dad's gone, so I won't take any offense to that" he said staring at her. Annie couldn't tolerate it anymore, she immediately raised her hand to slap him, Golgotha held her wrist, and twisted it back, "don't think about it, it wouldn't be nice for a son to slap his mother and I can assure you, it'll take time before you recover from my slap" he said coldly.
Annie immediately burst out in tears, as she leaned on his chest, sobbing, her tears kept flowing out like water, soaking his clothes, he didn't feel any pity, but he didn't push her either, he let her cry it out, she had done the same to him, she had ruined his life, he looked up as he remembered an incident, that happened, 15 years ago.
Flashback
Liam was running around in his room, being chased by his nanny, he was laughing out happily. "I'm going to spank your ass Liam, Mama's gonna be pissed if you aren't ready for the auction, before she comes" his nanny Lizzy said, she was a young lady, about 20 at that time. Liam though just 5, knew he had a crush on her, he wanted to play with her, and nothing more.
"Liam!" Lizzy yelled. He immediately stopped running as he walked to her, "Lizzy let's just play" he said. "No... your mom's going to be furious with us" she said angrily. "But she won't, she's my mom and she loves me alot, I'll persuade her, I don't want to go for the boring auction" he said with a dry smile. "No Liam, you have to, she's just trying to teach you" Lizzy said, "no I don't want to go and I still have my whole life to learn all these nonsense" Liam said, Lizzy sighed weakly.
Just then the door to Liam's room, fling open, a young Annie walked in, she wore red suit, with black heals, she had a nude make-up on, but the red lipstick contrasted with the makeup.
"Liam? you aren't dressed?" she asked angrily. Lizzy got up immediately and looked down, Liam sighed, "mom I don't want to go for the boring auction, I want to stay here and play" he said fearlessly. Annie's eyes flew wide open, almost like she had heard a taboo, "what did you just say?" she asked her voice becoming very cold. Liam didn't notice the change in her voice, "I said I don't want to go for the boring auc...
*Slap*
Liam almost fell but Lizzy held him just in time, their eyes met, hers filled with worry, his filled with tears, she helped him stand properly and moved back. Liam's hand went up to his left cheek, he stared at Annie who was glaring at him.
"What do you mean by that? huh? tell me? do you think all this is a joke, you are so foolish, you don't know what you have, you really don't! how dare you open your mouth and say you don't want to go?" she asked moving to him.
"Mom why did you slap me? I don't want to go, auctions aren't even for kids" Liam said with tears rolling out of his eyes.
Annie immediately pulled his long hair, Liam struggled to break free, "you aren't like other kids, you are the heir, you are my heir" she said and pushed him away, he fell on the floor.
"And you bitch, what exactly are you doing here, if you can't even dress him up?" Annie asked walking to Lizzy. "I'm sorry ma'am, it's my fault... I... I'm sorry" she pleaded. Annie grinned as she brought out a Pocket knife from her purse and used it to scar Lizzy's beautiful face, the scar began from her jaw and stopped a little away from her left eye.
Blood poured out, Lizzy's eyes were filled with tears, ""I'll dress him now" she whispered as blood gushed out of her cheek. "you better" Annie said.
"You bitch how dare you hurt her?!" Liam yelled. Annie back stiffened, she turned slowly, tears filled her eyes, "did you just call me a bitch?" she asked. "yes I did, that's what you are for doing that to Lizzy" Liam yelled. Annie looked around the room, her eyes fell on the iron which was plugged in, she walked there and dragged it and headed to where Liam was, the next moment there was a loud cry.
She had placed the hot iron on Liam's back and it burn through the clothes and his back burnt, by the time Annie removed it, the shape of the iron was already on Liam's back, blood was flowing out freely. Liam's tears couldn't stop flowing, Annie grabbed his chin, "You are weak son, weak... don't talk to mother like that ever again else.... I'll send the nurse you need to train harder, and fiercer, stay home and rest, tomorrow you have training by 4am don't miss it, else I'll kill you" she said and strikes a lovely smile, showing her white teeth, she walked out of the door and closed the door.
Present
Golgotha pulled Annie away from him, as he walked out, Annie wiped the tears as she watched him leave the large hall.
