Chapter 596: A Shock
"Did you know he was married?" Gragory Savoy entered the office as he gently closed the door behind him, locking it with a soft click.
Autumn stiffened and looked up, at the man who was walking towards her desk as if he owned the place. She narrowed her eyes and instinctively started to search for another escape route, as her fingers tightened on the folder she was holding it. She would smack him with it if she needed to protect herself.
"How did you get in here?" she demanded, her voice tinged with a mix of caution and irritation. "And why the hell did you lock the door?"
Gragory raised an eyebrow, his demeanor unapologetic. "I like to ensure privacy when discussing sensitive matters," he replied smoothly, moving closer to her desk. "You understand, I’m sure. The last time I failed to lock the door when we were together, it did not quite go well for me, as you must remember..."
Autumn froze. She knew quite well what he was trying to get at. The last time, she had been barely an adult and... He was trying to intimidate her. Did he really think that she would be the same scared little girl.
"I remember quite well." She watched as his eyes gleamed with satisfaction over her acceptance of this and then she continued," I remember the urge to claw your eyes out and feed them to the birds... Would you like to help me fulfill the wish?"
Gregory Savoy stiffened as he stared at the girl in front of him. She even dared to threaten him," Tsk tsk. You always were a violent girl. But don’t worry. I’ll teach you to be docile."
Autumn scoffed at that and watched as he sat down. She could feel the fear inside her. The cold sweat running down her back and her shivering legs reminded her that she still feared him. She wanted to pick up the phone and call Gabe. Not for help. This time, if this man tried to do something, she was determined to kill him. What she needed was to hear his voice and calm herself...
"Don’t look at me like that baby. It makes me want to hold you and do things. Anyway, I am not here to discuss the past. I came to discuss the present... in truth your husband- Gabe Frost."
