TAMING MR JERKFACE: Own By An Overbearing CEO

Debby's POV

Silence.

We're all sitting in silence, staring at our plates.... Well, Andre wasn't, he's already start eating.

I secretly nudge him and he paused, giving me his attention.

"They haven't started yet!" I whisper yelled at him.

He looks around, everyone is staring at him.... Mr and Mrs Knight smiling, while his grandma..... Ugh! she's glaring at him.

Andre turns back to me and put some rice on my plate.

"We came here for lunch, if they don't wanna eat it's none of our problem...." He locked gaze with his grandma. "Ignore them and eat!" Mrs Knight sniffles a laughter and clink her fork on her plate.

"Yes, Andre is right.... let's eat"

Andre and his Mom turn to their food, but his grandma huffed angrily.

"No manners!" She said.

I know she's complaining about Andre. Well, since everyone is eating why not join.

Just as I was set to eat, the doorbell rang. Andre's grandmother quickly sprint up and rushed to the door.... like she's expecting someone. "Did Mom invite someone else?" I heard Mrs Knight asking her husband.

"I... don't know" he replied.

We suddenly hear grandma's laughter from the door... then she mentioned a name that made Andre goes stiff.

"Oh, my sweet Olivia!"

Andre clenched his jaw and gripped his spoon very tight.

Ok, I don't think this is gonna end well.

"Why did she invite her?" Mrs Knight snaps at her husband.

Mr Knight shrug and muttered something under his breath.

Andre made to get up but I pulled him down and take his hand in mine, caressing it softly.

"Don't worry, I'm here!" I told him.

"Let's leave, I hate her!" He said... He sound very angry, his tone filled with so much hate.

Now, I really wanna see who this Olivia is.... She couldn't be worse than Olivia Thompson. "Let's go, I might do something you wouldn't like" he said.

"Don't worry, just be a good boy and sit down... I'll do the talking" I whisper in his ear.

He didn't reply, but I can feel his anger.... his whole body is tensed and shaking.

"Come on in, dear" grandma ushered her guest in.

Their footsteps approach the dinning room. I sighed deeply and gather all my strength getting ready to face whatever might come later. "Hello, aunty and uncle!"

Oh no! It can't be.... this voice.

Looking up, my blood ran cold. So, the Olivia they're all talking about is actually... Olivia Thompson?!

Now I see why Andre is in this state, it's because of her..... you see, Olivia is very good at manipulating others with her words.

She's my worse nightmare...... now she's my boyfriend's nightmare too.

Wait.... what did I say? Boyfriend?! Fake boyfriend!

She bullied me then and I let her but not anymore..... now that she's destroyed Andre, I'm not gonna let her off the hook!

"Oh? Is this Debby fucking Ryan?!" This pulled me out of my thoughts.

I smiled slyly at her.... she's good at giving nicknames, let's see if she deserves a nickname too.

"Wow! Long time, no see.... Olivia slutty Thompson!" I fired back.

Olivia slutty Thompson.... it might not make any sense but at least I tried.

She looked around and saw an empty chair on the other side of Andre, she pulled it out and sat down.

"Long time? We saw each other four days ago" she said.

Mrs Knight look between us with narrowed eyes.... I know she's trying to figure something out.

"You two know each other, Debby?" She asked me.

I wanted to say no, but Olivia spoke before me.

"Yes, Aunt... we are very good friends, we go way back... right Debby?" Olivia looked at me knowingly... a smirk on her pancaked face.

We are very good friends?! I smiled sweetly.... and look around, everyone is staring at us.

"Yes... friends!"

Grandma scoffs unbelievably but I ignore her.

Olivia turns to Andre and smiled.

"Andre, I heard you've got yourself a girlfriend"

"That's none of your business!" Andre snaps at her harshly but she laughs it off.

"Where's her?" She looks around as if she's looking for something. "Why don't I see her?"

I tap the table.... she turns to me and I smiled tightly.

"That's because you are too blind to actually see her!"

She released a loud sarcastic laugh.

"Who? You?"

"Yes!"

She turns to Andre and throws her arm around his shoulders.... she puts her finger under Andre's chin.

"Andre, I didn't know you'll become worse after I left....." Andre's breathing heavily, I can tell he's trying to refrain himself. "Tell me, how did you manage to end up with this nerdy pants!" I gasped... did she just called me a nerdy pants?!

Just then I heard Olivia wince...... her arm around Andre's shoulders is gone as Andre hold it in a tight grip.... bending her arm with no care.

I tried so hard to hold my laughter but couldn't, I begin to laugh uncontrollably..... Mrs Knight join me.

"Let go of my hand!" She cries.

But Andre simply bends it more.... His grandma bangs on the table.

"What are you doing, Andre?"

Andre ignored her. "How dare you insult my Angel?!" He roared in her face.

She looked at Mr and Mrs Knight for help but they both looked away as if they aren't aware of her situation.

"You can insult me but don't you ever.... Ever insult my Angel!!"

Wow! Andre look so damn hurt right now.

"She's a nerd... a dumb nerd!" Olivia growled.

He slammed her hand on the table very hard and she howled painfully.

Bitch! I think I should reward Andre for teaching her a lesson.

I pulled Andre's chair closer to mine and crashed my lips on his.... giving him a sweet short kiss.

Olivia's glare at me intensified.... and I wink at her.

"I'm a nerd and Andre loves me that way...." I kissed Andre again. "At least I wasn't the school's popular slut!"

It's surprising how I can actually stand up to Olivia now.

She rubs her hand slowly.

"Andre loves you?!" She scoffs. "He don't! Andre doesn't do love.... he don't have a heart!"

Andre wanted to react but I held him down and shake my head... telling him to let me handle her.

But I guess her statement also provoked Mrs Knight..... she bangs the table lightly.

"You don't know Andre! And besides you're apparently an unwanted guest here.... leave!"

Olivia faces Andre's grandmother..... hmph! I didn't know she's such a crybaby.

"Grandma, she's asking me to leave!"

"Don't mind them, sweetie... You aren't going nowhere, I invited you!"

Olivia wore a smug expression... Andre's grandmother faces Andre.

"Andre... look at Olivia, she's such a good girl with proper upbringing" her gaze fell on me. "Unlike some worthless beggar!"

Andre got up abruptly, knocking off his chair.... he grabs my hand and pulled me up.

"Angel, I'm sorry I can't hold it anymore" he turned to his grandma. "If you think she is a goddess then marry her!!" He turned to Olivia. "And you! Don't ever show your face in front of me again!" Without another word, he head for the door pulling me along. I smiled at Mrs Knight apologetically.... she shakes her head and smile widely.

"I like you, Debby... take care of Andre for me!" She call after me.

We stepped out and arrived at the garage where Andre parked his car. He opens the door, just when I was about to step in... I heard Olivia called me.

"Ignore her!" Andre tells me.

I shake my head.

"No, I want to hear what she have to say"

"No!"

"Andre, be a good boy and wait here for me, ok?"

He glared towards Olivia.... I pout my lips and showed him my cutest puppy eyes.

He sighed and reluctantly agreed.

"Thank you!" I kissed his cheek and rushed towards Olivia.

We're like seven feet away from Andre..... she pulled me in for a hug and whispered in my ear.

"I have always have all the good things in life.... Andre won't be an exemption, you might have him now but I promise I'll take him back from you!"

I smiled.

"Don't worry, I won't give you the chance to.... he's Mine now!"

Woah! I sound kinda possessive.

"Really?" She huffed. "I had him once and I'll have him again!"

"Well, let's watch and see..... may the best lady win!" I pulled away and wink at her.

I turn away from her and head back to Andre... I enter the car and he jogged to the driver's side.

He starts the engine and drives out of the compound.

"What did you two discuss?"

"Nothing of your interest.... just girls talk"

He eyes me suspiciously but didn't push it further.

I can't believe Olivia Thompson is Andre's ex.... well, I have made up my mind not to let her bully me again... I won't let him win this time.

I should tell Anna about this, she'll help me come up with ideas on how to beat Olivia.

"Andre?"

"Yes, Angel?"

He snaps his head towards me and my eyes grew wide as I point at the road.

"Please, watch the road, I don't wanna die yet!"

He faces the road.

"Anna? Is Lucas gonna be there?"

"No"

"I swear if Lucas is there I'm gonna kill him and you can't stop me!"

I rolled my eyes.

"He's not there.... and let me make something clear to you"

He kept quiet but I know he's listening.

"You don't have to get angry or possessive everytime I mention a guy's name or everytime I smile at them"

"Why shouldn't I?"

"Because they won't take me away simply because I smile at them.... I'll still be yours"

He glanced at me briefly.

"No! Not true!"

"Huh?"

"If you smile at them and always call their name, it means you like them and wanna be with them"

I frown.

"Where did you get that from?"

He kept quiet and set his lips on thin lines.

"Olivia.... she....." He cuts himself off.

Olivia.... what the hell did you do to this guy?!

"Andre, don't listen to her. I can smile at hundred boys and call their names... discuss with them but I won't love anyone! It's not necessary to fall in love with our friends"

"Really?"

I smile and nod.

"Really...." I reach for his shoulder and give him a little squeeze. "Not every girl is like Olivia.... I love you and you alone, it doesn't how many boys smile at me or speak with me... I'll only love you"

I see the corner of his lips quirk in a small smile.

"You promise?"

"I promise! There'll be only you!"

He smiles brightly now. "Thank you, Angel"

He takes my hand and kissed my knuckles.

Then I recalled my promise...... there'll be only you!

Why did I say that.... hmph! Whatever helps him recover!

"So.... are you gonna drop me off at Anna's?"

"Yes!"

"Well, I have promised to be with only you... now it's your turn to promise me"

"What?"

"Promise you won't get angry... jealous... overly possessive whenever a guy smile at me or greets me.... or hug me?"

He grits his teeth and sigh.

"I promise you but no hugging!" He said firmly giving no room for my unnecessary arguments.

I sighed and nod.... at least we are going somewhere. We continue the rest of the ride in silence.
