Chapter Three Hundred and Ninety-Two

Third Person POV

May is getting frustrated with what is going on around her, she has been trying for days to reach her contact but all to no avail. The worst part is that she noticed that anywhere she goes there were two or three of his father's security hanging around, she won't know why her father took it upon himself to have them following her all the time. Could it be that he is aware that I am in contact with someone over there, but is not possible cause I made sure that am always in my room whenever am on the phone with the private investigator, May muttered to herself? May decided to talk to her father about the security, cause she is going to go crazy if they continue hanging around her, especially now that she is unable to contact her private investigator.

May walked to her father's study and walked in without bothering to knock. Mr Dicon shook his head in regret cause he know that the only person that will dare to do such a thing is no other than his daughter. He is regretting the way he raised her, cause he pampered her way too much and now he is reaping it. May when are you going to learn to knock and wait for the person on the other side of the door to ask you to come in, Her father scolded her. You must be kidding Dad? Cause that doesn't sound like what May Dicon can do, She told her father and sat down in front of him. Her father knowing that he will not get anywhere if he decided to argue with her, decide to ignore the issue for now and know why she is here. Why are you here May? He asked her. Well, am here cause I want to know the reason for the constant bodyguards around me, May started. Her father was not expecting that to be the reason why she is here, he thought she is here to make one of her ridiculous demands.

You are my only child and the heiress to the Dicon empire, what else could be the reason for me to ask my guards to guard you, Her father answered her. May was relieved to hear that her father is just trying to protect her and not what she was thinking, she is afraid of her father's reaction if he came to know what she is planning. I understand Father that you are trying to protect me but them being around me all the time, is suffocating, please take them off my back am an adult, I can take care of myself, May pleaded with her father while putting on her puppy face knowing that her father never said no to that face. Her father knows what she is trying to do but there is no way he is going to fall for that look again. You are right, you are an adult and the last time I allowed you to be an adult and manage your life, the first opportunity you got you were embarrassed, Her father reminded her. Since the day he brought her back, they never talk about it and today is the first day he is touching on the topic.

Come on Dad, I was just trying to expand your empire, as you said am the heiress of your empire and I was trying to do something to make you proud, although it did not turn out well, May said trying to sound innocent. May, I have spent thirty years of my life running this empire, so am not a fool, I will advise that you think twice before lying to me, Her father told her, looking at her sternly. That means he knew the real reason why I was there, how could I be so dumb to think that he has no idea, May muttered while beating herself inside for being a fool. Yeah, you are a fool for thinking that you can fool me, I know what you went there for and I heard that the young man in question is about to get married, I will advise you to dismiss any thoughts of disrupting that wedding cause that will not happen not under my watch, Mr Dicon warned his daughter. Wait did I say that out loud, that explains why the security around me was double, but how could he do this to his only child.

Dad, you can't do this to me, she said to him. Why not? Her father asked her. I love him and as my father I expected you to want my happiness, May tried to make her father see reason with her. That is where you got it wrong, I want your happiness but what is going on here is not love but obsession, you always get what you want that is why you are bent on making that young man yours, even after knowing that he is in love with another woman, She said to her, trying to see if she can make any sense of what he is telling her. That's a lie Dad, he doesn't love her and am going to show him that, am the one meant for him, May started. Mr Dicon shook his head in distress, cause it's very obvious to him that talking to his daughter will not bear any fruit the only option he has now is to exercise his power as her father. May, I can see that you are very delusional but I will not watch you destroy yourself, I advise you to stop all this madness before it is too late, He ordered her.

I know that you doubled the security around me because you don't care for my happiness, but you know what I don't care whether you care for it or not, am going to stop that wedding and not even you or anyone can stop that, May snapped at her father. May know that she is crossing a line here but she has to do it cause she believes that is the only way her father will take her seriously. Mr Dicon can't believe that May spoke to him in such a manner, he knows the step he is about to take is harsh but he has to do it for the sake of everyone involved. From today henceforth, May Dicon any means of financial privilege that you are enjoying will be ceased and that will be until you show that you have changed, you are also going to stay in your mother's hometown until further notice, Her father told her while giving her am not joking look. You are joking, right? You can't do that to me, am your only child, you can't let me suffer and there is no way am going to stay in that dump, May protested.

Of course, I will do more than what I listed out unless you give me a reason not to and you are going there first thing tomorrow morning, Her father told her. May knows that her father is serious about this and she knows that there is nothing she can do about it, she doesn't have any financial muscle so the thought of running away is useless. She can't believe that this is how she loses the fight on getting the heart, Max.
