    <b>Chapter </b><b>26 </b>


    Now, Thomas was looking at Danielle withplete disgust, no one noticed his expression except Darius. Pulling her from around his neck, Thomas shoved Danielle back. Startled, she walked slowly towards


    Thomas.


    “Tommy<i>, </i><i>why’d </i>you <i>push </i>me away<i>?</i>”


    Danielle had tears in her eyes as her voice cracked. The same tears she’d had whenever she would use Rabena of being mean or bullying her. The same tears and cracked voiced that worked so many times on him, yet at this moment, he felt nothing but contempt. In a menacing tone, he Thoams began to speak.


    “Don’t you <i>have </i><i>anything </i><i>to </i><i>say </i><i>to </i><i>me</i><i>?</i><i>” </i><fn4aed> Latest content published on Find1Novel</fn4aed>


    Thomas‘ eyes were dark, all that kept reying in his mind was how Danielle lied to him about the proposal. Danielle’s eyes began to bulk, she had no idea what he was referring too. Her voice began to rise as she panicked catching everyone’s attention.


    “<i>Tommy</i><i>! </i><i>What </i><i>are </i><i>you </i><i>talking </i><i>about</i><i>? </i><i>Why </i><i>are </i><i>you </i><i>looking </i><i>at </i><i>me </i><i>like </i><i>that</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>


    Both Amber and Davis stood up, Daniel also began to walk in their direction. Darius however continued to lean in the corner and watch not saying one word. Daniel walked over to Thomas demanding to know what was going on.


    “<i>Thomas</i><i>! </i><i>What’s </i><i>the </i><i>meaning </i><i>of </i><i>this</i><i>? </i><i>Why </i><i>are </i><i>you </i><i>being </i><i>mean </i><i>to </i><i>Dani</i>? <i>After </i><i>all </i><i>she’s </i><i>done </i><i>for </i><i>you</i><i>, </i><i>how </i><i>could </i>you <i>treat </i><i>her </i><i>like </i><i>this</i>?”


    Thomas looked over at Daniel and scoffed.


    “Why don’t you ask <i>your </i><i>sister</i><i>?</i><b>” </b>


    Suddenly, the room went quiet<b>, </b>all eyes on Danielle. She began to sob louder.


    “T–Tommy<i>, </i>I don’t <i>know </i><i>what </i><i>you </i>mean. <i>What </i><i>did </i><i>I </i>do<i>?</i>”


    Amber immediately jumped to her defense.


    <i>“</i>Thomas! What the <i>hell </i>do <i>you think </i>you’re <i>doing</i><i>! </i><i>How </i>could you talk to my daughter like this<i>! </i><i>If </i><i>it </i>wasn’t for her you-<i>” </i>


    Thomas cut Amber off yelling, he’d heard enough.


    <b>“</b>If it wasn’t for her I would not have blown the biggest deal <i>my </i>firm has ever had<i>!</i><i>” </i>


    Everyone stared at Thomas in shock. What did he mean by this? What had Danielle done? Finally, Davis spoke up.


    <i>“</i>Thoams, <i>exin </i>yourself! This is unbing. Against <i>my </i>better <i>judgement </i><i>I </i><i>allowed </i><i>you </i>to enter into a


    44


    <i>rtionship </i><i>with </i><i>my </i><i>daughter </i><i>DESPITE </i><i>what </i><i>happened </i><i>with </i><i>Rabena</i>, <i>and </i><i>this </i><i>is </i>how <i>you </i><i>repay </i><i>that </i><i>kindness</i>!<b>” </b>


    In that instant, everything became clear to Thomas. He realized just how much this family as well as himself saw Rabena. She was ALWAYS going to be an outsider. Davis went out his way to refer to Danielle as his daughter while referring to Rabena by name. That was not unintentional, the message was clear.


    Thoams let out a sarcasticugh, how long had he been a fool? Perhaps his grandmother was right after all.


    “<i>Your </i><i>‘</i><i>daughter</i>‘ <i>may </i><i>have </i>ruined <i>my </i>entire <i>career </i><i>with </i><i>her </i><i>lies</i><i>.</i>”


    Danielle began to panic, what lies was he referring too?


    “<i>Tommy </i><i>I </i>don’t <i>know </i><i>wha-</i>”


    <i>“</i><i>Stop </i><i>lying</i>! <i>Danielle</i><i>, </i><i>I </i><i>know</i>! <i>I </i>know <i>you </i>weren’t <i>the </i><i>one </i><i>that </i><i>created </i><i>that </i><i>proposal </i><i>and </i><i>setup </i><i>the </i><i>meeting </i><i>between </i><i>me </i><i>and </i><i>Chairman </i><i>Michaels</i>!”


    Danielle’s face began to pale, she hadn’t expected for Thomas to learn the truth. When she originally heard about the meeting, they referred to the person as Ms. Crest, she naturally assumed they never knew Rabena’s first name. Panicking, she decided to feign ignorance.


    “T–<i>Tommy </i><i>why </i><i>would </i><i>you </i><i>say </i><i>that</i><i>? </i><i>You </i><i>know </i><i>I </i><i>set </i><i>that </i><i>up </i>for <i>you</i><i>. </i><i>You </i><i>even </i><i>said-</i><i>” </i>


    Exhausted, Thomas cut Danielle off again.


    <i>“</i><i>Dani</i>, <i>just </i><i>stop</i><i>. </i><i>Stop </i><i>with </i><i>the </i><i>lies</i>. <i>Did </i><i>you </i><i>really </i><i>not </i><i>think </i><i>they </i><i>would </i><i>tell </i><i>me </i><i>who </i><i>set </i><i>everything </i><i>up</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>


    Getting angry with Thomas bullying his sister, Daniel intervened before Danielle could answer.


    “That’s <i>enough </i><i>Thomas</i>! <i>If </i><i>Dani </i><i>didn’t </i><i>setup </i>your <i>meeting </i><i>and </i><i>proposal </i><i>then </i><i>who </i>did!”


    Thomas eyes cut over and red at Daniel. Was that answer not obvious? With a sarcastic chuckle, he answered,


    “Your sister…<i>Rabena</i><i>” </i>
