Davina’s Pov:- 

Why is she here? What does she want now? I hate this woman! 

I stood there and watched her walk towards me, she had a calm expression on her face while she stood in front of me and stared at my face. I tried to suppress my hatred for her and tried to stay as calm as possible. 

She’s his mother!

“What are you doing here?” I asked while staring at her face. She glanced at April and moved her eyes back to me while raising an eyebrow at me.  

“This is my son’s house, I can come here whenever I want to!” she replied while sitting on the couch and moving her right leg over her left one. I took a deep breath and tried to control my anger and stared at her. 

Don’t let her affect you, Davina. 

“Well, Arthur has left for a business trip, he’s not here!” I said politely, she looked at me for a while without saying anything. 

“I know, I didn’t come for him… Sit down, Davina” She said with a serious expression on her face. I stared at her in confusion while sitting on the couch, 

“I came here to talk to you!” she said with a small smile on her lips. 

What she wants to say now, she has said so much in the past, what’s left to say more.

“Whatever happened in the past…” she began, but I cut her off, “Let’s not talk about it, please,” I said while closing my eyes and gesturing to her to stop with my hand. 

 As I opened my eyes, I saw her taking a deep breath while looking at the floor. I turned to April and saw her staring at her blankly, I turned and gazed at Coop, who was standing at the door. 

“Coop,” I called, he turned and walked towards us. 

“Yes, Miss Ellis,” He replied, 

“Please take April to the garden,” I said while glancing at April, he nodded his head and extended his hand to April. 

“Come April,” he said, I turned to April and smiled at her, she took his hand and walked away with him. I kept quiet and watched until they left the living and turned to her. She was just staring at me, 

“If you want to talk about that day... Then… Please I don’t wanna talk about it Mrs.Spencer,” I said while trying to be as polite as possible. She’s his mother, I can’t disrespect her even though I hated her for what she did. 

She let a sigh out of her lips while her shoulder fell and lowered her head, “Leave him, Davina!” she said with a hint of sadness in her voice. I widened my eyes in shock, 

“What!” I said, surprised at her words. 

She looked at me, “I know that you two aren’t dating! Don’t try to act in front of me,” she said, I stared at her not knowing how to react. 

“You are not good for my son… You are a part of his past... and you, being with him won’t help either of you,” she said, so I swallowed hard and kept quiet. 

“I suggest you get out of his life as soon as possible…” she said, her words had hidden warnings in them. 

“It’s for your own good…” She said. I sighed deeply while sitting straight. 

“Arthur is very lucky to have a mother like you, Mrs. Spencer,” I said in a mocking tone while a small smirk played on my lips. 

“Seriously,” I said with a chuckle, “I always want the best for my son, Davina... Olivia was not good to Arthur… she doesn't deserve him nor do you!” She said, “I had to support her… everything I did back then...was in order to remove her from his life…” she continued while leaning back, 

“... to get rid of her… I had to convince you to divorce him… I had to remove you from Allen’s life and get her with him..” A smirk played on her lips and the proud look on her face was making me angrier. 

“... well, her pregnancy helped me a lot,” she smirked while folding her hands over her chest. I gritted my teeth in anger and tried hard to control myself. 

“I don’t want you in his life… it’ll be better for you… if you leave him!” she continued, “... or else I have my ways…” She said looking straight into my eyes. 

I took a deep breath and smiled at her sweetly, “How sweet, I admire the way you care for him, Mrs. Spencer,” I continued with a smug expression on my face, “Truly, I am touched,” I placed my hand on my heart, “I can clearly understand why he hates you now… I mean… who wouldn’t,” I said, hearing my words she stood up,

 “How dare you!” she said while glaring at me. 

 “I will make sure you regret this, Davina” She continued while pointing her finger at me, “I will throw you out of his life…”

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!” a loud and angry voice cut her off, I turned my head and saw Arthur walking towards us with a pissed off expression on his face. 

My heart began to beat rapidly against my ribcage and there was a feeling inside my chest that made me feel relieved to see him. I didn't understand what it was. His hair has grown a bit and he had slight stubble now, he was dressed in a black blazer with a white button-down shirt underneath and black pants. He looked more attractive than before.

As he walked closer to us, I noticed, his jaw was clenched and the way he was walking towards us was very aggressive, he looked furious. 

He stopped in front of us and glared down at his mother, “WHY. ARE. YOU. HERE?” he gritted his teeth while stared at her menacingly. I gulped hard while looking at him, I don’t know when but I was now standing and I stepped back from him in pure fear. 

“Arthur I-I,” she stuttered while gazing at me, she looked nervous and I could notice that she was avoiding eye contact with him.
