Chapter 26 Now , Thomas was looking at Danielle with complete 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 , why'd you push me away ? " Danielle had tears in her eyes as her voice cracked . The same tears she'd had whenever she would accuse 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 have anything to say to me ? " Thomas ' eyes were dark , all that kept replaying 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 . " Tommy ! What are you talking about ? Why are you looking at me like that ? " 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 . " Thomas ! What's the meaning of this ? Why are you being mean to Dani ? After all she's done for you , how could you treat her like this ? " Thomas looked over at Daniel and scoffed . " Why don't you ask your sister ? " Suddenly , the room went quiet , all eyes on Danielle . She began to sob louder . " T - Tommy , I don't know what you mean . What did I do ? " Amber immediately jumped to her defense . " Thomas ! What the hell do you think you're doing ! How could you talk to my daughter like this ! If it wasn't for her you- " Thomas cut Amber off yelling , he'd heard enough . " If it wasn't for her I would not have blown the biggest deal my firm has ever had ! " Everyone stared at Thomas in shock . What did he mean by this ? What had Danielle done ? Finally , Davis spoke up . " Thoams , explain yourself ! This is unbecoming . Against my better judgement I allowed you to enter into a 1/2 44 Chapter 26 relationship with my daughter DESPITE what happened with Rabena , and this is how you repay that kindness ! " 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 sarcastic laugh , how long had he been a fool ? Perhaps his grandmother was right after all . " Your ' daughter ' may have ruined my entire career with her lies . " Danielle began to panic , what lies was he referring too ? " Tommy I don't know wha- " " Stop lying ! Danielle , I know ! I know you weren't the one that created that proposal and setup the meeting between me and Chairman Michaels ! " 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 - Tommy why would you say that ? You know I set that up for you . You even said- " Exhausted , Thomas cut Danielle off again . " Dani , just stop . Stop with the lies . Did you really not think they would tell me who set everything up ? " Getting angry with Thomas bullying his sister , Daniel intervened before Danielle could answer . " That's enough Thomas ! If Dani didn't setup your meeting and proposal then who did ! " Thomas eyes cut over and glared at Daniel . Was that answer not obvious ? With a sarcastic chuckle , he answered , " Your sister ... Rabena " Chapter Comments 2 POST COMMENT NOW < SHARE 2/2 12:43 Sat , 30 Aug " Burn those who burned me ! " Chapter 27
