The Domineering CEO

FLASHBACK I

Somewhere in Platoon villa at the Brown's mansion, one could see the fury Mrs brown sitting on the sofa in the study room, stomping her feet on the floor repeatedly.

"This is what you do to us after all we've done for you , you are nothing but a disgrace just like your mother" -she scoffed.

"What do we expect from an illegitimate child like him"- Freya said one could hear the disdain in her voice she has never liked her step brother ever since he came in.

"He's a loser"-Brian said observing his step brother who was by the corner of his father's study room with an evil smile.

"As expected from a mistress son,he-"

"All of you be quiet!! a man in his late fifties walked in angrily looking at Brian with disappointment.

"Father" he said like a child with a shattered heart.

"I do not want to hear a word from you" -Mr brown said and sat on his seat then he looked towards the quiet boy standing at the corner of the room.

"What is this that I hear?"-he asked which was then followed by a short silence. " I'm asking you a question Milton!!– What is this that I hear?- he shouted in anger "Do not keep me quiet when I speak to you"

"Are you really going to keep your Father quiet?, even if you act mute for a while behave like a real son of your father, he's been nothing but nice to you, we just want to know the reason why you did that at the banquet- Milton darling you should speak up – Mrs brown said, one would think she really cared about him.

"Father it's not what you think, I wouldn't do anything that inappropriate to Brian's fiance it's all a set up"- a deep but yet still voice was heard. Milton raised his head looking at his father with utmost sincerity wondering if he will be understood by anyone in this room, he knew he would be disappointed but there was this little brim of hope in him that made him think there would be an affection or love shown towards him

"Who set you up then? , My fiance?!! Urrghh you are really something" Brian said angrily rushing towards Milton with a punch to his face.

"Brian!!!" - his mother yelled

"Enough you two!!" Mr Brown said-the veins on his forehead were about to pop out because of anger one could notice the annoyance in him. He closed his eyes for a while then let out a long sign like one who was stopping a volcano from exploding then he spoke up.

" Milton you'll be going to the US to study, I think it's the best decision for you, you can spend as many years as you want just stop giving this family an headline" he said with an heavy heart,he has always loved this son of his,the world is vile and cruel he just wanted him to be safe. Saying this he walked out of the study room steadily going straight to his room.

Everyone started walking out of the study room rolling their eyes at Milton, Mrs brown walked up to him

"This is not the end of your suffering, this is only the begining I would advise you take this offer your father is giving you in a platter of gold now because I can't guarantee you a good life, I've never given you a reason to smile, have I? Mrs brown grinned evily.

"I'll be going to my room" Rollins who had not uttered any word since the gathering said walking out of the room. He has always been the quiet and observant one among Mrs brown children. he always acts unpredictable thus no one knows what he thinks he barely converse with his siblings.

"Must he ruin the atmosphere with his speech?,arrgh he annoys me with his attitude" Freya said clearly upset.

"Don't speak ill of your brother that way Freya" her mother said unhappily

"Okay , I'll be in my room upstairs" she said- she knew her mother shouldn't be toyed with, her temper was the last thing Freya wanted to see, her mom can be so scary when pissed off.

Mrs brown looked at Milton with a stern look and walked out leaving just him and Brian in the study room. Milton looked at his face through the mirror in the study, there was blood at the corner of his lips which was caused by Brian's pinch, sometimes he had always wanted to tear up but he has to hold it in he wouldn't let them see him weak but this time he was very angry, not angry because he was humiliated but because he couldn't do anything to improve his situation maybe it was really best for him to travel abroad at least there would be peace and less drama for him.

"Milton"Brian called out making him jolt out of his thought

"How does it feel to ruin that face of yours?- feels good right? I thought as much he said smiling wickedly, Miss Ava of Winstar group and co had always had eyes for you ever since we were little and would never even bat an eye towards me,"

"Yes she is my fiance but she doesn't love me, you know who she loves? it's you, you , always you"he said almost cursing

"Then how is it my fault? is it my fault for you not being outstanding enough,if you were outstanding she wouldn't have looked at me ,is that why you set us up? a deep,calm yet charming voice echoed in the room.

"Yeah, I spite her drink thinking she would come look for me as her fiance but no she went to my amiable brother and made that scene in front of everybody including the media, now guess who'll be popular on the headlines tomorrow, You!" he said sarcastically.

" Her reputation is still at stake considering she being your fiance ,Don't you think? and father wouldn't seat back and watch this piece of news affect his stock price so you failed" Milton said

"You know what I hate the most about you is your calmness, how can you be so calm in a situation like this?, you know what I hate you just get lost, you should better go abroad to study or I might strangle you to death" he yelled then stomped out of the room angrily

Milton signed suppressing his anger, he looked at his face once more in the mirror and left the study to his room where he revolves round his own world.

"I wish mom was here to comfort me" he thought as he walked towards his room.
