The Grand Mistress - Chapter 213
The whole situation caught Hawk Monsanto off guard. He suddenly heard the door open and flashes of camera started ticking, capturing the scene of him and Simione getting intimate. Immediately, he embraced Simione and buried her face in his chest so no one will be able to capture her face nor any intimate part of her. Thank God she only had her top so he only needed to cover her front and face.
“President Hawk is with a woman!”
“Who is this woman President?”
“This is the Monsanto Mistress!”
Hawk’s expression immediately darkened and he started shooting daggers at everyone, scaring the hell out of their lungs. His jaw set in and was gritting his teeth and an immediately hunting aura flashed before everyone’s face, they all backed out a few steps back to the door. Just as they did, Simione turned her back to all of them and started ribboning back her halter dress. Since she was at her back, only her raw back skin was exposed to everyone’s sight.
“Hawk….” Feather called onto him with full resentment and only did the Monsanto president become aware of her presence. He didn’t clearly see her earlier because his attention got too concerned with all the camera’s flashing and all the media personnel that suddenly flooded in.
“What’s all this?” Feather added and cried, ruining more of her makeup especially her mascara that had now created a pattern of parallel line her face. She looked dreadful then. “Who is this woman and why are you…..” She couldn’t say the word so she ended up swallowing them all to a cry.
“Feather,” Hawk’s voice was filled with worry. Now that he saw Simione already dressed and was looking sideways from him, he chose to meet Feather’s resentment. Her presence came as a huge shock from him because just minutes ago, the ballerina was on the stage and he was very sure that her performance had not ended yet. “What happened to your concierto? Why are you here?”
“What happened?” Feather’s voice was almost bursting, “This is what happened…” She referred to him making out with another woman. “Who is this woman you are with!”
Hawk was still not ready for her questions as he did not expect what happened tonight. As he was about to explain it, Feather however went berserk!
“You woman! How dare you hit on an almost married man! I’ll kill you, I’ll rip out—”
Feather runs toward Simione aiming for her hair. She wanted to lashed back at her physically so she would learn to place herself. Doesn’t she know who she was? She was Feather Han and no one, even a Monsanto whore could shame her like this!
“Feather stop—” Hawk defended Simione by covering her away from Feather’s violence. In the end, he was the one who suffered Feather’s scratches and blows.
Simione, who was very much liking the whole scenario, immediately acted hurt while Feather was reaching for her so that Hawk could do nothing but push Feather away to protect his other woman. The Han’s heiress immediately stumbled on the floor!
“Omigod, the president was protecting his mistress from his fiancee!”
“With what I am seeing, Feather Han seemed to be at a disadvantage,”
Hawk still heard the media personnel’s commentaries and he knew he had to dispose of them before he could remedy the situation. Luckily, just in time when he wanted them to appear, Hawk’s men came and started clearing off the whole scene. They first handled the media personnel and negotiated with them while all of those who had been paid by Simione already left the place without traces. They actually left even before Hawk’s men came.
Now that there was no single media around, things got a bit calmer and what can be heard was Feather’s resentful and miserable sobs. How could she lose everything in one night?
First, her ballet.
Second, her place in Hawk’s heart.
“What is happening Hawk…” Feather dared to question him again. “Who is she?”
Her cries became heavy and she looked rather pitiful with her white ballet custom splattered across the flooring. Hawk had pushed her away so he could protect his mistress and so Feather stumbled hard on the floor. With a heavy painful heart, she couldn’t bring to stand on her feet anymore and so she just cried and cried worrying about everything that’s going to happen after this. They surely can’t cancel the wedding just because of this right? Well deep in her heart she was very willing to forgive him so long as she can be the Madam of the Monsanto Conglomerate!
“I ask you who she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Feather screamed at it.
“Feather, I’m sorry,” That was all that Hawk was able to say to her at this point. She was really hysterical. She was shaking in front of him and she was terribly determined to know all the details of his betrayal.
“I’m sorry?” Feather called on him from the floor. “You are just telling me I’m sorry? You should drag that woman out and ask her not to appear in front of you anymore! You should shoo her away right now!”
“Feather…listen….” Hawk begged for her to let him say anything. Since things had gone out of control already, perhaps he could explain to her everything to appease her. “I’m really sorry but I can’t marry you anymore,”
“What?” Feather’s eyes went frustratedly big at that.
“I can’t do this to you anymore,” Hawk told her. “We had been through tough times before and so I thought even when the attraction and chemistry wasn’t there, I had sincerely considered making you as my wife. However, things have changed recently and even when I know we could have been a better couple, knowing that my heart is easily shared by another woman, it means I cannot marry you. I had not been unfaithful to my vows to you so let’s just stop here….”
“The heck, Hawk?” Feather was completely shocked by all the things she had heard. There was a time when Hawk told her how she completes him and how he was specifically thankful for her company that never did she once thought that when faced with the mistress, Hawk Mosanto would choose that filthy woman over her. “Do you even know what you are saying? You are trading all that we had for that whore? Do you even know what she wanted from you? Because I do…”
Feather who was desperate reached for Hawk even when she was kneeling. She grabbed him and took his hand. “Can’t you see? She just wanted your wealth and your fame….but I….but what we had…. It cannot be compared to anything….we love each other….we adored each other….this woman is clearly ruining us…”
Hawk felt an instant pity for the girl kneeling in front of him. Knowing that the same girl was the one he once loved and kept in Somerset village, seeing her so miserable because of him did hurt him badly. To make her understand, Hawk gave her his attention and took her from the floor.
“My heiress…this is all my fault…” Hawk felt utterly miserable about how things ended. He wished Feather had not seen this all as he wanted to have a clean break up with her, for her own good and for his peace. Yet, things just surprisingly exploded in the most scandalous way it could and he couldn’t do anything right then but just watched the Han’s heiress cry over her heartbreak for him.
It was a sight most painful for Hawk.
However for Simione, it was the most satisfying sight she had ever seen in her entire life and before she knew it, she was already laughing, surprisingly both Hawk and Feather.
“Hahahahahahahahhahah!” Both Feather and Hawk’s eyes gathered in unison to Simione who laughed like a mad woman. Her laugh filled the whole room—loud, mocking, victorious!
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to break your dramatic break up,” Simione apologized as she slowly turned her body to face Feather this time. As soon as she did, her eyes went and imprisoned Feather’s eyes that mirrored hers—both honey colored. The only difference was that, Simione’s eyes were filled with so much amusement while Feather was filled with horror!
“You……” Feather immediately went shaking when the woman whom she thought had long been dead raised from the grave. “No…..it can’t be….”
Hawk who wanted not to drag Simione into his and Feather’s conversation planned to dismiss her for a moment but Simione’s mocking laugh and Feathers expression made him suspicious “Sisi can you please—”
“What did you call him Hawk?” Feather turned to him with her eyes that went hell miserable and fearful.
Hawk somehow read some of her thoughts, connecting the dots, he turned his eyes from both until he settled on Feather. “Do you know her?”
“Of course she knows me Hawk Monsanto,” Simione spoke again and this time, Hawk felt the change of her aura to him, it was like she came from a long mascaraed and right then, she finally threw her mask to unveil the true her.
“This can’t be!” Feather stepped back. “No you aren’t….Simione?”
“Hahahahha,” Simione smiled rather viciously.. “Hit right. Hi dear cousin,”
