Threat

He's a psycho.

Bobby's pov




"What!! you mean Melissa the maid daughter?"I blabbered out before I could even stop myself, and was still looking at the woman in confusion.

"yes,"she answered without looking at me.

I can't believe this, I barely recognise her. Is this not the girl I used to bully before I travelled abroad."How did she get so beautiful?"I huffed with my mouth wide open.

I close my mouth and stop staring long enough so that I can excuse myself from the woman and slip away. I placed my iPad on the table before standing up.

Maybe I should just say hi to her.

I notice her arranging some wines on a table, I smile to myself, before approaching her.

"nice, nice, nice"I muttered repeatedly as I got closer to her.

She raises her gaze to meet mine but flinches a little as she glares at me, as if she was not happy to see me, the expression says it all. Am not nice to her from the onset but I don't know why she is the only one that catches my attention.

"How may I help you"she questioned and I raised a brow at her, her eyes engrossed into mine like she was searching for something. I cleared my throat before giving her a fleeting look.

"You don't have to look at me like that, that disturbing"

"Really."

"Do you remember me?"I managed to say, I don't why I am just uncomfortable with the way she was staring at me.

"Yes, how can I forget the devil,"she said bluntly and rolled her eyes.

"Don't tell me you are referring to me"I spat out, but instead of her answering me she picked up the flower vase and started walking away, and it ticked me off more than it should.

"Who do you think you are? To walk out of me like that"I muttered while walking toward her, she came to a halt before facing, the anger that is boiling inside her is clearly written on her face.

"Where are you going, do you think am here to greet you?"I questioned, making her come to a halt before facing me.

"Then what's your problem?"she questioned, but I didn't reply to her, but continued moving closer to her instead. I don't know why I just feel like disturbing her.

"Just want to tell you to bring me, wine sweetie,"I said softly. She hissed at me and attempted to walk away, but I quickly grabbed her by her wrist.people are now staring at us.

She jerked my hand but I made sure I don't let go of her .

"You can't be serious"she spat out with venom in his voice and I scoffed in annoyance.

"Whatever, but be fast if you wish to keep on working here, won't mind sacking you on my first day in England,"I said with no emotion. With this, I release my grip on her wrist and start walking away.

  She said something as soon as I started walking but I didn't seem to hear her.

It Was not even up to fifteen minutes before I noticed her walking towards me with a tray in which a bottle of wine and a glass cup was neatly placed on it.

"Wow! you surprised me, I guess someone is not ready to lose her job,"I said mockingly, while she put the tray on the table beside me.

"That's my work, remember I'm a maid"she suddenly snapped.

"Ohhh, I see but am sorry you are late, and besides am not in the mood of drinking wine again"

"You can't be serious"

"What if I am, simply get me a bottle of water,"I said while rolling my eyes at her.

"So, you're telling me to return this wine and bring you bottled water ?"she raised her voice slightly

"Yes."

"You must be kidding me"

"Sweetheart, are you going to return the wine and get me what I asked for, or should I go and get it by myself"I mutter barely above a whisper, I can see she is very angry, if only she gets a gun, she will shoot me right now.

She was about to say something when I heard my mom shouting my name, she was with the head maid in the front of the hall.

"What the fuck!"I hissed before heading toward her, ignoring Melissa.......

Melissa's pov.

"I can't believe this' ' I spat out with venom in my voice, how can he do this to me, I even think he would have changed not knowing he's now worse than before...

I waited for about five minutes before picking the tray. I'm sure he's going to be waiting for me but I am not going to get him any water. I will make sure I dodge him throughout that day, I don't want to face him again.

The ballroom...

The party was pretty boring with different people giving me different work.

"Can't they pour wine by themselves"I hissed as I walked toward one of Mrs Parker's friends who was calling me.

I empty the wine before placing the bottle back on the table. 

I'm about to leave after taking the empty bottle when I noticed Bobby staring at me. He was sitting beside his father who seemed to be very busy with his friends.

I quickly made a turn before he could even make an attempt to call me.

I walked briskly towards the ballroom entrance, making sure I was out of his sight completely. I make an attempt to head toward the main entrance, but someone catches my attention. A very cute guy with blonde hair, I don't know why he seems familiar.

"Is this not the same blonde-haired guy I saw in the afternoon jogging past the mansion gate?"I muttered to myself as I walked to him without even knowing what to say.

For some reason, he looks so worried like he was forced to sit.

"Hi"I mumbled immediately. I got closer to him. he flinched a little like he was lost in thought before raising his head to look at me.

"Hello, how are you? '' he murmurs, using his right hand to brush his blond hair aside.

I blush on seeing his Emerald eyes gazing into mine.

"You need something,"I asked, avoiding his gaze.

He seems to have noticed how in-patient I am, he cleared his throat before extending his hand for a handshake which I gladly accepted.

He introduced himself, and I get to know his name, which is Draven.

He was very sweet with the way he talked to me. Asking for my name, and telling me I was far too pretty to be a maid. I know he was probably just being nice, and if I was pretty it was the dress, but blushed at his comments at the same time. and it made me want to know him even more.

We were still busy chatting when I heard someone clearing his throat behind me, I turned to look at the person, and to my surprise it was bobby.

"I scowled in my position as I noticed Bobby appearing in front of me with his hand in his pocket, my eyes widened in shock.

"Why don't you come back with my order"he questioned, before looking at Draven 

"And also who is this guy?

.

"Is none of your business, '' I spat out with anger, before facing Draven who was busy watching our drama without saying anything.

"See you later, I need to go"I Butter while facing Draven and I heard him mutter the same thing as soon as I started walking away leaving Bobby, am sure he was surprised by my action. I make sure I walk as fast I could to slip away from him.

I'm still walking through the hallway when someone suddenly spins me to the wall, making me cough in pain. I am about to cry out when I notice Bobby fixated his gaze into mine.

I screened and pushed him away immediately.

"What's your problem"I grumbled breathing heavily.

"Do you think i'm gonna let you go after disobeying me?"he asked softly while taking a step closer, his voice was barely above a whisper.

"What....at.... are..are you trying...ing to do", I stammered, holding my skirt tightly as he moved closer, the hallway was filled with disco light making it harder for people to notice us.

My heartbeat increases with every step he takes.

Hope is not what I'm thinking?

No, it is not possible.

"You are fire"he said out of nowhere, cutting me off from my thoughts and I regained my posture before shaking my head.

"What!!!!!"
