Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 136

No one’s P.O.V.

“This is my last warning to you, John. Don’t provoke me that much that I forgot that you are Violet’s father,” Nathalie Threatened John over a call. She got the call from Samantha, telling her that John went to meet Violet again and was trying to meet her but couldn’t succeed till yet. “Then ask her to sign the property papers and I will leave her alone. I don’t have any intention to be with her though,” he spat venom again and Nathalie dug her nails inside her palms. “You were always missing from her life. She doesn’t need you in her life either. And about the property….. she got that from her grandmother as her birthday gift. You don’t have any right to ask her to give that to you,” she scolded him again, telling him the same thing that she was telling him from time to time.

“Or you want to take that property for your other daughter, huh?” she taunted him this time. John wanted to open his mouth but closed it quickly because he couldn’t deny her allegation. “You are living a good life with your husband and your son. I am not the only one who left her. You are too in the same boat as I am. So, stop pretending that you care for her and ask Samantha to make her sign the papers,” he answered her after sometime and blamed her too.

Nathalie laughed aloud in anger and almost drew b***d out of her palm. “Yes… I left her… but who made me do that?” she yelled and there was silence on the both ends. Nathalie took a few deep breaths. She didn’t want to speak with him anymore. “Stop bothering her, John. I don’t know about you, I don’t know about Parker’s but I know my husband very well. He is a responsible man, and also, care for Violet. He will not spare you for troubling Violet,” she threatened him one more time, and before he could say another word, she hung up.

She threw the phone on the couch near her and closed her eyes. Her lips trembled when she tried to stop herself from crying again. She knew that she had lost Violet and she couldn’t be with her now. She knew that it was her fault of leaving her nine years daughter when she needed her the most. She was broken but couldn’t justify her actions as a mother. After coming back from Parker’s house, Henry scolded her for being so reckless and irresponsible towards Violet all these years. He couldn’t believe that the woman who he looked at a loving wife and very caring mother was also the same woman who gave nightmares to her daughter.

“Mom,” Nathalie opened her eyes again when she heard her son’s innocent voice. “What is it, honey?” she immediately pulled him on her lap as she was sitting on the couch. He immediately wrapped his tiny hands around her neck while looking at her worriedly. “Why are you crying, mom?” he asked her in worried and innocent tone. She smiled sadly while cupping his face. “It’s nothing, honey. Everything is okay,” she assured him and stroked his face lovingly. “Are you okay?” he asked her again and she nodded. He put his head on her chest. She tightened her grip on her small body and her lips trembled badly this time.

No, she was not okay. She was showering her love to her one child while the other one craved her whole life for her love. She was a loving and caring mother for one child while the worst mother for the other one. She now knew one thing that she couldn’t let John harm Violet more. Although she didn’t that piece of property that she got from her grandmother after the adoption but that property only belonged to her, and Nathalie was now determined to keep John away from her. She knew that Henry would help her in this matter. He just wouldn’t let her go near Violet after witnessing what happened to her the last time. Nathalie knew that she would live the rest of her life in regret and guilt but she was also determined to keep her life away from troubles and dangers.

At the same time, John also threw his phone on the bed as he was in his bedroom. He was in dire need of help so that he could start a business to keep his life and family goes on. He lost his job six months ago, and his wife and his daughter were not willing to spend their lives in poverty. He was in a lot of pressure these days but he didn’t have any way to get the financial help other than forcing Violet to give him the property back.

“What happened? Did she agree to help you?” he looked in the direction of the door from where his second wife entered the room. He sighed aloud and ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. “No… she refused to help and threaten me to stay away from Violet or else she will take her lawyer husband’s help to keep me away from her,” he told her what he talked with Nathalie truthfully in a frustrating tone. “So now she cares about Violet, huh? Where was she when Violet was alone?” his wife taunting him with Nathalie and he glared at her angrily.

“We have already talked about this, Rachel. This is with me and her. You don’t need to poke your nose here,” he scolded her and also indicated her that he was not going to let her say anything about Violet and Nathalie. “What? You are blaming me now?” she yelled in a taunting tone. He sighed aloud and looked in the other direction while putting his hands on his h**s. “I can’t believe this…. I… really can’t believe this… afte…. After so many years… you are still thinking about her and that pathetic excuse of your daughter,” she taunted him again and he lost his temper.

“Listen to me, Rachel… and listen to me carefully for the last time,” he pointed his index finger towards her in anger. “We have this argument so many in the past but I don’t want to talk about this with you anymore. They are not your concern and they don’t say anything bad about you. So, leave them alone too,” he threatened her in a cold tone. She scoffed and grabbed his finger. “I don’t care about your relationship with them. I only care about my daughter who is also your daughter and your responsibility, and I won’t let anyone ruin her future like this. Find the solution to get that property or you know me better,” she threatened him back and then threw his hand away harshly.

She then walked out of the room angrily. “Aaaahhhh,” John screamed in anger and pulled his hair in frustration. His relationship with Rachel was good in the initial days. The bitterness started adding in their lives when he started failing in fulfilling Rachel’s continuous demands. She wanted a luxurious life and he was failing miserably to provide that life to her. Their daughter also hooked up with a rich boy a year ago and now everything had fallen apart for him. He had to do something to bring Rachel and his daughter back to him. He sat down at the edge of the bed while breathing heavily. He needed to do something very quick or else he didn’t know what Rachel do to ruin Violet’s life.

Violet’s P.O.V.

“Happy birthday, Ethan,” I wished Ethan and hugged him. He immediately hugged me back and kissed the top of my head. “Thanks, Violet,” he said in whispers while holding me tightly in his embrace. It was his birthday but we had school today. We stayed like this for a while, and he slowly released me from his embrace. He kissed my forehead before leaving me. He jerked his head in confusion and I followed his gaze. I sighed and rubbed my forehead helplessly. There was a dark scowl on Kyle’s face right now. I didn’t know what I needed to do about his possessiveness. “She is my sister first,” Ethan scolded him.

“Ha…. Still not… she is my girlfriend, first,” Kyle immediately fought back and I sighed helplessly while looking at both of them. “You two,” I looked at mom and sighed in relief this time. She glared both Ethan and Kyle while coming towards us. Kyle and Ethan lowered their heads but remained glaring at each other. “Grow up now. You shared a different relationship with her, so don’t go clingy,” she scolded them while wrapping her hand around my shoulder. I also jerked my head in agreement. Both of them were older than me by a few days and a few months, still they behaved like kids.

“Now sit down and finish your breakfasts,” mom ordered them while pointing towards the chairs. “Yes, mom,” they replied to her in unison, and I giggled in her embrace. “Come, honey,” she ushered me too and I smiled. She took me to the other side of the table where I now sat beside her. “Good morning, everyone,” I smiled when I saw dad coming towards us. “Good morning, dad,” I, Ethan, and Kyle greeted him back in unison. He came near us, and kissed my forehead first before going towards mom. Now it was his routine whenever we gathered to have our meals. The warmth of his love and care spread all over my body through that casual k**s.

He then kissed mom’s forehead before greeting her the morning. She also wished him with a genuine and loving smile on her lips. This was perfect in every sense and I wanted this forever. Dad then greeted Ethan for his birthday and hugged him. Ethan smiled from ear to ear while hugging him back. They then sat down on their chairs and we all started the breakfast. “So… what’s the plan for today, huh?” dad asked Ethan while eating. Ethan gulped down the food that he had in his mouth while looking at him.

“We are planning to have a small party in the evening. Just our friends,” Ethan told him what he was planning. Dad nodded and then looked at mom before looking back at Ethan. “How many kids then?” he asked Ethan again. “Around twenty two, dad,” he told the number to him and dad raised his brows in surprise. “We made so many friends this year,” Ethan beamed and looked at me. I smiled and looked down at my plate. All of them though that I was the reason that the football team, and the volleyball team came to a peaceful friendly relationship now, but it was not the complete truth. They didn’t have any problems earlier. It was just ego problem among them. They came over that problem to help me only.

After finishing our breakfast, we stood up from the chairs. “Your friend, Jenny, she is also coming tonight, right?” mom asked me and I nodded. “She and Noah are now dating and she is my only female friend. So, Ethan invited her today too,” I told her the reason and she nodded. “Okay… let’s go for shopping after school. I will arrange everything for tonight’s party but I wanted to buy something for Ethan,” she told me and I nodded. “Okay,” I replied to her and she beamed. “Let’s go, Violet,” Ethan called me from the door of the living room. “Bye mom,” I kissed her cheek and then ran towards Ethan and Kyle. They were waiting for me at the door.

Kyle took my hand in his hand after giving me my bag. He intertwined his fingers with mine and I smiled while shaking my head a little. He was very possessive but I kind of liked his possessive. This was not in a bad way. He just got jealous whenever any other boy came near to me. We had talked about this once and he promised me that he would never stop me to talk with any else, doesn’t matter what is the gender of that person. I was glad that he was still stick on his decision. We went to Ethan’s car. I hopped at the back seat of the car whereas Kyle went to the passenger’s seat while Ethan took the driver’s seat.

They gave me their bags and I kept them beside me on the seat. “What do you want for your birthday, princess?” Ethan asked me while driving the car out of the mansion. “I need nothing, brother,” I answered him in a calm tone and Kyle chuckled. Ethan looked at him with raised brows. “What? I got the same answer from her,” Kyle immediately defended himself. “I know what I need to give him. I am not clueless like you,” Ethan replied him back arrogantly. I smiled while shaking my head gently. I looked out of the window towards the sky. It was a clear day of October. The weather was not so warm, not so chilly now. I liked this kind of weather so much.

Ethan and Kyle continued their bickering, but I didn’t pay attention to them. I was now used to their childish behavior. I smiled while thinking about my grandmother she would be very happy by seeing me so happy and content. “Violet,” I came out of my stance when I heard Kyle calling me. “Huh?” I asked while looking at him. “We reached,” he informed me and I immediately looked out. I pouted when I realized that we were already in the parking lot of the school. “She again zoned out,” Ethan sighed while shaking his head. I just glared at him and gave him his bag. Kyle chuckled and took his bag from me.

We all got out of the car and Kyle came near to me. He once again intertwined our fingers and I smile while looking at him. We both tightened our grip on our bag strap on our shoulder and walked behind Ethan who was now taking his phone out to call Noah. It seemed that they were running late today. “Kyle….. watch out,” I looked behind when I heard someone calling Kyle’s name in panic. Before I could see or understand anything, someone hit Kyle at the back of his head. “Kyle,” I yelled in panic as he immediately embraced me while yelping in pain.

“Aaahhh”, I looked in Ethan’s direction and my eyes almost popped out of the sockets when I saw Ethan holding the back of his head too. “Ethan”, I yelled his name in horror and tried to raise my hand towards him when someone grabbed me from my arm. There were seven-eight burly men around us. One of them hit Kyle in his back and he yelped in pain again while Ethan fell down on the ground. “Kyle,” I heard someone yelling Kyle’s name in a voice filled with horror again. At the same time, two of them started pulling me away from Kyle’s grip. They started hitting Kyle badly while trying to pull me away from his embrace. “Kyle… no,” I yelled while hyperventilating in panic this time when I saw Kyle falling down on the ground.

I saw Sia running towards us in panic. There were also a few boys in the parking lot who surrounded us. They managed to snatch me away from Kyle. I was not panicked and was trying to understand what was happening right now. Suddenly one of them pulled a gun out of his pocket and everyone stopped in their tracks in fear. Tears were now falling down my eyes. I looked at Sia who was now looking at me with fear written all over her face. Suddenly someone hit me at the back of my head and before I lost the consciousness, I saw Sia trying to come towards me while looking at me in fear when someone grabbed her back.
