Well, the next morning, she woke, got ready to leave, as usual, it was Saturday but she had to go to work because she had a job that she wanted to do herself and she has been working on it all week, she got in her car and drove towards Del Cole, she noticed some cars following behind her but she didn’t give much thought to it, after the last time, she had been careful but nothing of such happened again do she thought she must have mistaken.
However, when she got to Del Cole, she discovered that the men, not just one or two, there were six or more of them, they were all wearing suits and looked like bodyguards, she wanted to ignore them but decided to ask since she was going to be at Del Cole alone.
“Hi, good morning, who are you please?”
She asked, walking closer to the one that stood near the car.
“Good day, Ma’am, we are employed by Rafael Salvador to keep you safe, don’t worry you can continue your day, we won’t disrupt anything,”
The huge looking guy said in a deep voice, Nicole bit hard on her lips and she brought out her phone and dialed Rafael’s number, he was so going to get it from her
“What nonsense is this Rafael? Why do I have bodyguards at my workplace and they are from you? Have you lost your mind?”
Nicole yelled into the phone as soon as Rafael picked up the call.
“Calm down Nicole, I can explain.”
“What? Calm down? Have you lost your Goddamn mind? How are you telling me to calm down when you are bluntly invading my privacy? If I need a bodyguard don’t you think I will get one, don’t get me angrier than I am already am, remove your men from my office before I do something that you might regret,”
She yelled.
“Nicole I have my reasons for sending them,”
“And I don’t fucking care about your reasons, I don’t want a bodyguard, even my parents know not to invade my privacy who the fuck do you think you are to make such decisions for me?”
She yelled again, the man was one of his kind, that was the only explanation for this whole shit, first, he shows up and then he disappears and now he is back again but not in person but with a bunch of other men watching her back, what the fuck was wrong with him? Now she knew they just be the ones following her a week ago, she hated him even more for it.
“So it’s has been your men following me all along and here I thought someone was stalking me, get your men off my back,”
“What are you talking about? They only started yesterday, has someone been following you? Do you have any details of the car? Anything you can tell me?”
He asked, he sounded genuinely worried and she calmed down a little to listen to what he was saying.
“I don’t have any of those details, it was just a random car that followed me from the club last week Friday,
“You go clubbing now?”
He asked in a rather loud voice, she moved the phone from her ears.
“Huh, am I not allowed to? I am a grown-ass woman in case you have forgotten,”
She reminded.
“I didn’t forget, I am just in shock because that would be the last thing I would think you will do, but you have changed a lot so I should expect it,”
“Well, just get your men off my back, I don’t fancy people following me,”
“I can’t Nicole, you have to bear it for the time being,”
“Which part of getting your men off my back aren’t you listening to? Rafael I don’t care what you say, take your people away don’t make me do it myself,”
She yelled on the phone.
“I am coming over, just wait for me,”
“Don’t fucking come here,”
She yelled but he already hung up before she got the words out, the man was out to get her, okay kiss goodbye to making up, she wasn’t going to let him tell her how to leave, his did he expect her to move on with her daily life with six bodyguards on her tail? He must have been close by because he drove into Del Cole a few minutes later, she was still standing at the entrance, and eyed him when he walked towards her.
“I told you not to come here, you don’t listen Rafael, get your men off my property or I am going to call the cops on every one of you,”
She yelled at him.
“I had to, you sounded really pissed, can we go in and talk,”
“No, what did you expect? That I will not be pissed?”
“Cole, there is someone on your tail and I can’t take chances that’s why I asked them to be with you for now,”
He explained, wow, so she had someone following her and from the looks of things it was his fault because he looks guilty, so one of his many enemies were out to get him and they were going to use her? And that’s why he was acting like this?
“Can we go inside and talk Cole?”
“No, I don’t want to talk to you Rafael, just take your people and leave me the fuck alone, maybe if you consider leaving me alone then whoever it was is out to get you won’t look at me because I won’t mean a thing to you, it would be easier to do that,”
She said as calmly as she could.
“I can’t do that Nicole,”
“Then get your men off my way, or I might pour hot water on them,”
She threatened.
“You are being insensitive right now Nicole, I am trying to look out for you and your sister,”
Wait, it wasn’t just her but Natalie too? He was crazy.
“You have people follow Natalie too? What the fuck is wrong with you Rafael? Do you realize that you are not the only rich person here? I was born into a very influential family, we have security, even my parents know better than get their men on me yet you, I don’t know who you think you are, you come and at like you know everything, someone is out to get me? If it wasn’t for you will anyone be out to get me?”
“I am just looking out for you Cole,”
“I don’t want you to look out for me, just leave me alone,”
She yelled.
“Is that it? Is that what you really want? For me to leave you alone?”
He asked, Nicole knew she should stop and not say anymore that he might really leave if she tells him to but she didn’t stop.
“Yes, Rafael leave me alone, stop coming near me,”
She said the words and watch him slowly nod his head.
“I will do that,”
“Good, and take your men with you, I can get my own security if I feel there is a need for it,”
She added.
He nodded turned and left, her heart told her to call him back to tell him she was sorry but she stood her ground and watch him leave and the men too, they got in their cars and left, she turned back got into her car and left Del Cole, she suddenly didn’t feel like doing anything…
