You Are My Property
Brigitta and Nikolai were at a restaurant, seated before eachother. Nikolai had asked her out and she had agreed. Afterall, this wasn’t their first time of going on a date. They did that severally when they were in Toki Island but this was their first time in Jora City here.
Brigitta knew for sure that Nikolai likes her genuinely and would do anything for her, even risking his life for her.
As they ate, Nikolai spoke, “so I finally came up with a plan for us to leave here.”
“Oh… Tell me about it,” she requested as she munch on the spoonful of the food in her mouth.
He was about to speak when he suddenly noticed Brigitta drift his attention from him. He traced where her face was now set and surprisingly saw a man and a women who looked like couple. They then began to walk towards their table.
As they approached, Nikolai couldn’t help but ask Brigitta, “who are they?”
“My ex husband, Alex Roberto and my step-sister, Ambrose, I think they are planning on marrying soon.” She responded to Nikolai quietly even as she watched them approach him.
Alex and Ambrose were soon standing before Brigitta’s table, “Brigitta, it’s being a long time.” Ambrose spoke.
Alex Roberto looked at Nikolai with disgust and asked, “what are you doing with her?”
Nikolai frowned angrily, “what do you mean?”
“Mr. It seems you are not aware that my sister here is married.” Ambrose immediately chirped, directing her question to Nikolai “do you think it’s right to hang out with a married woman?”
“You are her ex husband, Alex Roberto. Isn’t it?” Nikolai asked Alex.
“How dare you speak to me this way? Do you have an idea whom I am? You are speaking to the Chief commander of the Wigglesworth’s family as well as the chief executive officer of Kenelm LTD, if I were you, I would be careful.” Alex warned.
“Have I said something wrong, Alex? I only asked if you are her ex husband. Anyways, what do you want with us? I’m sure you and your finaceé came here to have dinner and not to disturb our peaceful date.” Nikolai had barely finished saying this when Alex Roberto suddenly grabbed him by the throat.
Brigitta had to stand and shout, “let him go!”
That got the attention of everyone in the restaurant, yet, Alex wouldn’t let go of Nikolai’s neck. Nikolai managed to stand and punched him in the face, at once, Alex also punched back. The two men soon got into a bloody fight yet no one could approach them.
Some burly men suddenly walked in, they saved Alex from the fight and knock Nikolai to the floor. Ambrose had called some of Alex’s men immediately he got into a fight.
Brigitta ran to the men who had Roberto knocked down and shouted, “let him go! Why would you knock him down? What has he done wrong?”
Alex spat the mouthful of blood in his mouth and pointed at Nikolai who was knocked down, “I’ll teach you a lesson you will never forget.” Then he commanded his men, “take him away.”
As they took Nikolai away, Brigitta ran towards them in an attempt to stop them but Alex was quick to launch closer to her and grab her. He then pulled her closer to himself. “woman! Stay put!”
“Don’t you dare take him away!” Brigitta screamed even as she tried to free herself but he held her hard. When Brigitta saw them taking Nikolai away, he was scared of what will be done to Nikolai. She knew she must not let them take him away so she picked up a dish that was still containing food and hit on Alex’s face.
Alex instinctively let her go as he held his face in pain, she ran to the men taking Nikolai but one of the men angrily kicked her in the stomach, screaming, “how dare you do such to our boss?”
No one in the restaurant could say anything, afterall, they know how influential Alex was. Even a small child from the Wigglesworth’s family will be feared talkless of their chief commander.
Brigitta screamed in pain at the kick, the kick had sent her sprawling on the floor, she held on to her stomach that was paining her severely. The kick was so hard that she almost lost consciousness.
Roberto struggled to be free from the burly men’s hands as he was angry at how Brigitta was kicked but the men were stronger than him.
“How dare you, Brigitta!” Alex walked up to her and grabbed her hair then pulled her up with it. The pain was so intense, it was as if he would uproot the hair from her scalp.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room changed. Two people had just entered and everyone recognized them.
“Mr. Ubba, good afternoon.” Alex who was still holding weak Brigitta by the hair greeted with a smile. He quickly added, “I’m sorry this place is a mess, I just need to deal with some people here.” He was facing Ragnar Marshall while saying this.
“Mr. Ubba, it’s so great seeing you. I’m Ambrose by name. I’m Alex’s fiancee.” Ambrose said humbly with a refreshing smile. She had only seen Ragnar Marshall in the newspaper all her life, this was the first time she was seeing him face-to-face. She was stunned that he looked more hot and handsome than the media had painted him to be. Who wouldn’t want to be in the good book of Mr. Ubba?
Everyone’s fear of Ragnar Marshall increased after he killed one of the Wigglesworth’s Lords. Everyone is well aware of how heavily guarded the Wigglesworth’s clan is that not even a hair of any member of the Wigglesworth’s family could be tampered with, yet, Ragnar Marshall killed one of their men.
When Brigitta saw Ragnar Marshall, she didn’t know whether to be happy or sad. She was a mess as her body was dirty and her well packed hair was now loosened.
Ragnar made a signal to Ottar who was beside him, Ottar walked forward and said to Alex, “let her go!”
“Why? Who is she to…” Before Alex could say another word, Ottar sent him a hard kick that made him crash to the wall. He coughed blood repeatedly as he landed on the floor yet his men dare not make a move. Everywhere was as quiet as graveyard.
Ottar, who was now with Brigitta looked at Ragnar for his next line of action. Ottar took steps away from Brigitta when he saw Ragnar walking towards her.
This was the second time Ragnar would experience men bully Brigitta. Firstly, it was Eugeny and now it’s her ex husband bullying her publicly.
He held her by her right arm and drawled her closer to himself but she refused to be drawn close. It was because he was neat while she thinks herself to be dirty, she didn’t want to stain his pure white suit.
He squinted his eyes at her reluctancy then looked around the crowd, “let what I’m about to say reach the ends of the world! Whoever touches this woman ever again will experience my fury.”
Everyone was shocked to see the great Mr. Ubba speak on behalf of a woman. This was someone known to have a special hatred for women, some even assumed that he could be a gay yet now, he spoke for a stranger.
No one knows what sort of relationship exist between Ragnar and Brigitta.
Then he took her out, she suddenly paused and demanded, “please help Nikolai too.” Cause Nikolai was still with Alex’s men as at this time.
However, he ignored her and took her inside the car. She begged again and again for him to help save Nikolai but he ignored.
She then began to cry at some point, what if Alex kills Nikolai? The thought of that makes her heart ache.
“I didn’t save you there because you are special to me. You are not. Don’t feel too entitled. Your friend should save himself.” Ragnar Marshall said and added, “You are my property. If anyone must punish you, it has to be me.”
She lowered her head and continued to sob quietly. Not because of what he said. She already knew she was nothing to him, she was just terribly concerned about her bestfriend’s fate. She stopped pleading with Ragnar to help cause it dawned on her that no matter how she begs, he would never answer.
She and Nikolai had only gone to have a peaceful date only for that jerk of a Alex to come and ruin everything.
