Chapter 187

Lily saw Nikita speaking to Matt from the window and she knew at once that Nikita was up to something. She had seen it in the young actress eyes the moment she got her attention fixed on Matt. Lily felt her blood run hot in anger. How dare Nikita try to play her son?

She burst out of her room and half walked and half ran to the swimming area.

"Aunt Lily is something after you?" Little Rosa asked from her corner in the living room. She was shocked to see Lily move so fast. The look on her face was scary —not like Lily ever looked calm but this looked more like she was losing control kind of scary.

"Aunt Lily?" Little Rosa called out seeing that Lily didn't hear her the first time. She might have been cruel but she was still a part of the family and Rosa had to be concerned for her.

"Quit screaming my name little rat!" Lily spat bursting out of the door. She was less concerned about Rosa. Right now, her focus was on the snake she had brought home —Nikita.

Lily moved with a speed that should have been impossible to attain with her heels but her anger drove her pass that limit. She got to the swimming pool right as Matt was hugging Nikita. Lily's angered eyes met with Nikita's lying ones and Nikita smiled at her right before she continued crying.

Lily could not take this sort of nonsense. She walked to where they stood and she literally pulled Nikita and Matt apart.

"What do you think you are doing?" She yelled.

The pull was rough but Nikita being an actress, let herself fall to the ground dramatically just to earm more and more of Matt's pity.

"Mother what are you doing?" Matt growled as he ran to Nikita's side. "Nikita i am so sorry, are you alright?" He asked as he helped her get back on her feet.

The skimpy dress she had chosen was perfect for the scene she was aiming to create. The dress was filled with dirt from the grass and a large smear of mud sat at the elm. There was no way anyone would ask her to go home looking like this.

"Nikita!" Lily roared. Her anger was growing by the minute. She could see through all of Nikita's drama and it burnt her to see that her son was blinded by it. "I told you to leave and not come here to flirt with my son! Now get out!"

Nikita only sobbed louder as she hid her face on Matt's shoulder.

"Mother i do not appreciate the tone of voice you are using on her. I thought you liked her? You brought her here for christ sake! Whats happenjng to you?" He cried out in confusion. He was helplessly trying to understand the situation at the same time calm the crying Nikita.

Lily held her head and was almost pulling at her hair. "I brought her here and when I realise she is no good. I have every right to throw her out! Whats your problem!" She spat. "She should leave here right now. I do not wnat to see her near you or anywheee around here!"

Lily was certain her son would listen to her. They always did. Loyalty in her family was the basics and they all followed it. She was the Queen and she was worshipped.

"Mother you do not own this property. Its for my grandfather and he decides who stays and who doesnt. Not you!" Matt said defiantly.

Lily felt like the world had come to a stop and she was losing control. Her own son had just stood up against her demands.

"Matt, it's okay. I will just leave now—" Nikita whimpered as she wiped her nose pitifully.

Matt was almost maddendd by this. "Stop! You are not going anywhere. Why should you leave?"

Lily was still in shock of being defiled by her son, words refused to leave her mouth. How did this happen? When did she lose control like this?

"I do not want to cause any trouble between you and your mother." Again Nikita played the victim card and this time, Matt wasn't even listening anymore.

He picked up her bag and held her hands. "We need to get you cleaned up and fed. Come with me," he spat pulling her with him to the house.

"Matt?" Lily yelled as she blinked continuously. This was like a movie to her eyes. She couldn't believe it. If she was told one of her sons would do this to her she would have thought of Noah. Not Matt.

Matt refused to turn around to face his mother. His heart was cold. He was determined. For the first time in his life, he wanted to do something that felt right to him and not his mother. He continued pulling Nikita to the house and completely ignored his mother's screams outside.

Nikita turned around as they took the curve to the main entrance and stared at Lily's cold form. She winked at her. The game had just started and Matt had no idea he was only being used.

Lily knew she had to do something and very fast before Nikita took everything away from her. She had brought her to the mansion to fight Ariana, now the ungrateful failure of an actress had decided to turn against the finger that fed her. Lily would show her. She was a master at this game. If people got degrees at being wicked, Lily should have gotten like five for herself.

She walked back to the house and went to grandfather's office. She knocked once and before the man could respond she pulled the door open.

"Grandfather we have a problem. Nikita is trying to cause problems in the house, I asked her to leave and she refused. She turned my own son against me!" She cried out in one breath as soon as the door opened.

"Lily, I dont remember asking you to come in, or did i?"
