Zavi grabbed her by her arm and pushed her to William.
"I'm not killing her." He stated.
I looked at him angrily, "Are you doing this because she's your ex?."
His eyes widened, "No, Nora. There are so many things I'd like to do with her," I rolled my eyes and went to sit, looking from Mary to Zavi.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?."
"I want to sell her to the French Mafia, I heard his visit to Dubai wasn't successful."
I bit the tip of my thumb thinking.
"I know y'all are wondering what to do with her, but did you forget she's here because her boyfriend is dying to kill Nora?," Will asked us.
Zavi shrugged, "That was part of my revenge."
Mary began, "Okay, guys. I'm here, okay? If you let me go, my boyfriend won't bother her again but if you don't let me go, he…"
"He would do nothing, Madeline. Do you think your boyfriend is some important big man in the business?. The Fraser Clan is nothing without me, I'm letting him go because they made my business flow well in Scotland." Zavi interrupted the bitch.
I stood up.
"Okay, that's it. Settle your problem with Fraser and get this thing out of my house, it's better than being killed, right?." I asked Mary before running up to my room.
I went to my makeup drawer and dropped the necklace, the jewelry I liked before it suddenly became trash to me. My distaste for it became apparent as I threw it into the trash. I don't care if it cost a fortune, he got it for her, deep down I wanted neither of us to have it.
"Nora..my love." I heard Zavi's voice and turned, "Don't Nora love me? What the fuck were doing on top of her when I walked in?."
His face fell, "It was an accident, we both fell on the couch." He answered,slipping his hands around my waist. I sighed, "Why didn't you want me in? I almost killed that guard out of frustration."
"Enough of Madeline, Nora. You know you're better, much better than anyone out there. Don't compare yourself to a slut like Madeline. Let's talk about you dancing with Sean."
I blinked.
Now it's my turn to get guilty.
I turned to face him.
"What do you wanna talk about?." A crooked smile played by the side of my lip.
"Don't pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about, you danced with Sean, he was holding my wife, fuck I wanted to kill him right there."
"Just as you held Mary's bum." I reminded him, feeling like he was accusing me of something.
He licked his lips, "Okay, 50-50. Are we good?."
I shrugged, "If you say so. Well, just so you know, Sean is a great guy, I made a new friend."
He forced a smile, "Aw. I'm jealous. Sean is a great guy, do you know he's bi-sexual. He didn't tell you that." He mumbled and left me completely as he began undoing his shirt.
I turned around and began pulling off my earrings, "Is that jealousy speaking through you?."
I turned back to see his face, he rolled his eyes like a fifteen years old, grabbed a towel, and disappeared into the bathroom.
I huffed and began zipping down my dress.
"Uhm..where's Zavi?." I heard Alec's voice from the threshold and quickly turned.
"Hey, I stay here, so you should maybe start knocking before entering this room," I yelled at him.
He frowned, "It's weird because I don't knock on this door, though I'll consider that later. Where's Zavi?." He repeated his question.
"In the bathroom," I answered.
He shook his head, "Can you tell him to find me when he's done?."
I shook my head and said, "Okay." He turned around to leave, "Alec. Becca is around."
"I know that." He mumbled and left. He didn't sound happy, I don't know but I feel something's not right with him, he must be tired, I guess.

"Hey, you wanna go to McDonald's, dude?" I asked William.
"Sorry, last time I went to McDonald's I got a beverage and had the worst McSteamy of my life."
"I'm bored as fuck. I don't know what to do." Irene said, from the couch.
Zavi and Alec had been gone for like a week. The last time I spoke to him on the phone, he said he won't be here until he is done. It was like he had workloads and he wanted to clear them out. I just sat down here, looking bored like the perfect housewife.
"Do you think we should go sightseeing?." Irene suggested.
"No. We ain't going anywhere." Will disagreed immediately. Irene going sightseeing means going to have fun.
But it was not a bad idea.
"Irene is right. If I spend one more day at home, I'll burn down the internal storage room."
"Zavi would kill me if you go out. Remember, it's not safe out there." Will said.
"I know but it's better than dying in boredom." I stood up and looked around, "Just clean this place up, let's go have a fun night." I told him and ran upstairs.

"I've watched Gray's Anatomy so many times, and I want to refer them to the life Zavi and Alec live."
I scoffed, "Alec is changing, Irene. He doesn't fuck around anymore, I think the both of them are very busy doing what they know best."
"Yet he doesn't want a girlfriend, if I were Becca, I would have given up long ago." She countered, relaxing her back on the car seat.
"Becca loves Alec, I want them together, but Alec can't be tamed. He's McSteamy of our time."
She laughed, "Hehehe. You got married to McDreamy, and McSteamy loves you but doesn't want to date you, you are a lucky girl."
I roll my eyes, "You don't have to point that out."
Our car stopped by the side of the road, we all left the car and started walking towards the clubhouse.
Reaching the front door, the bouncer bowed and quickly opened the door for us.
The music-filled room reminded me of when I was in Scotland.
"Enjoy yourself, Irene," I stated as she grinned, grabbed Will's hand, and went into the crowd of people dancing.
I looked at my bodyguard and pointed toward the bar stand.
"I'll be there."
I walked towards the bar stand and sat down.
"Gimme a scotch," I told the barman.
"Is this you, Mrs. Romano?." I heard a voice ask behind me.
I turned to see Sean with two other girls who he had their hands over their waists.
"Sean Thompson," I called, at least I got a friend to talk to.
He laughed and mumbled something to the girls, they giggled together and left him.
"I can't believe I found you here today." He said, coming towards me, suddenly my bodyguard blocked his way.
"Hey, big guy. Let him come."
He looked at me and stepped back.
"I'm sorry about that." I apologized.
Sean laughed, "You don't have to be. You're extremely nice to apologize for that, you're an extremely respectable person here."
I looked around me, folks were staring at us.
"The wife of Zavi Romano came to the bar."
I grabbed the wine glass up to my lips.
"Oh. I won't stay long. My husband will get mad if I do."
"Why don't you make use of the little time you have here to enjoy?." He asked before clicking his wine glass with mine.
I laughed and took a sip, "I'm doing that already."
A moment of silence passed.
"There's something I'm dying to know," I stated.
His playful eyes raised at me.
"Ask me, my lady."
"Uhm.." I took another sip and dropped the glass on the counter. "About last time, you said you and Zavi weren't on good terms, why don't you like my husband?."
Sean smiled, showing his dimpled cheeks.
"I didn't say I never liked your husband. He just didn't like me."
Same thing.
"Why?." I asked.
"Because I'm the best friend of Evan, your brother-in-law."
