The moment Simione left Hawk , his expression went dark. He was shaking furiously as his anger and frustration went off its limits. Cat telling him that they were done was something he didn't want to have and knowing that there was another man trying to lay a claim on her made him helplessly mad.
Just thinking about how she left him right then to go with her man was already a huge slap on his face and made his blood teeming with violence. His temper cannot be tamed anymore and he needed an avenue for all of it to leave his body and so walking past that great hall once again, he went back to the theater to find Cat and finish what they had started.
Damn her! How dare she end things with him just like that?
She cannot leave. She cannot just leave him like that!
No one leaves Monsanto! No one leaves him!
Opening the theater door with a loud bang, Hawk was welcomed by the audience clapping and greetings of Lucy's finished concert. The once dimmed light was already lifted and so every corner of the theater then can already be seen. Because of the loud cheering, everyone was then oblivious to the Monsanto temper that rose into Hawk and so no one did notice the tension that was about to fill the room.
"Where is she?" He approached the man whom Simione was previously with without hesitation.The man was then joining the crowd with clapping and whistles and the sudden tugged of Hawk turned his attention from Lucy to him.
The man who realized it was Hawk Monsanto who approached him was very surprised. "President Monsanto? What a surprise? How can I help you?"
The gentleman was casual enough to inquire about Hawk's sudden question. He was thrilled of course that the youngest billionaire of the country took notice of him and was looking forward to having a good conversation—all unaware of the anger that the M Conglomerate's president had for him.
"I said, where is she?" Hawk gave an impatient shake in his head. He doesn't care anymore if that man was Cat's soon to be husband. All he could think of right then was Cat and her clear intention of getting out of his life completely.
"Are you looking for Cat?" The man raised a brow at the thought. Why was Hawk Monsanto interested in his date? Never in the whole wide world would he imagine that the two had any connection because Cat and him, although both intellectuals, weren't really from good families in the city as he knew. They were both not from elites and if not for Lucy's free tickets, they both would not be able to afford the concert that night.
The mention of Cat's name on his lips made Hawk felt utter disgust as if the man was not suited to even speak of it. Trying to hold off his temper, he immediately grabbed the man's wrist and threatened him. "The thing between you two, don't ever think about it,"
Although Hawk had reached the pinnacle of success, it wasn't his trait to become a bully, especially not with men below his circle. It was obvious that the man was a commoner, educated but still a commoner. His tuxedo wasn't expensive enough, so was the watch he was wearing. Aside from that, Hawk knew mostly all the significant people in their city and this man in front of him wasn't one of them.
However, knowing that his relationship with Cat was on the line—if one could even consider that a relationship—he was then shamelessly bullying the man. Deep inside, Hawk Monsanto was very aware he was not in his right mind anymore and that his self-control had been dismantled thoroughly. He cannot think right and act right that time and all he could focus on was Cat and all the things he could do to prevent her from leaving him completely.
"President Hawk, I don't think you have a say on these things," The man who refused to be bullied retorted casually. Although he was very aware of who he was talking to right then, he was also well principled and educated enough to know that what Hawk was doing was beyond what he was supposed to. How could he just approach him so suddenly and tell him to stop dating Cat? Who was he? Cat's father?
Since he was then a commoner, he didn't have much experience with the elites and he so believed in universal principles that a rich man cannot just step into the men in lower class than them. So when he heard Hawk's warning, his pride went above his fear and so he met Hawk head on. Besides, Cat was a very beautiful, interesting woman and although they had only dated twice that time, he was already having fantasies of her becoming his and so like Hawk, he was not willing to let Simione slip out of his hands.
"I get to have a lot to say on many things, especially when it comes to Cat," Hawk pressed. With the way the man was responding, he could immediately tell there was indeed something with the man standing before him and his Cat who at the moment was missing in action. "Stay away if you still can or you'll see what I can do to people like you,"
"President Hawk, this is too much. I don't remember having any faults at you," The man shook in incredulity at Hawk's hostility. He cannot believe his most awaited concert and date would just be ruined by a pathetic elite whom a lot of people had been admiring. They all said he was far from the old Monsanto's but him, bullying, intimidating and threatening him right then just because of Cat and without proper explanation made him worse than his ancestors.
"Just make sure to stay away from Cat and we're good," Hawk growled, his eyes then was already firing up like he had finally found an avenue for his seething anger and aggravating frustration.
"Cat and I is something you—"
"Don't you dare say her name like she was your equal!" Hawk's voice went above the cheering and immediately all eyes turned to them as the crowd fell silent. Feather, who was drawn to the commotion immediately got one hell of a huge shock when she noticed Hawk was the source of such a sudden mess. From what she can see, it seemed like his fiancee was confronting another guest but the reason for their argument was unclear.
"I meant no offense and no need to be harsh," The man was surely taken aback. Hawk's anger then was all too sudden; he didn't even have time to evade it. If only he knew his night would end like this, he shouldn't have forced Cat to attend Lucilla's concert. All he ever wanted was to have a good romantic night with Cat and not some arguments with an unreasonable elite because of the girl. "All I'm saying is that, whatever Cat and I decide on our relationship is something we should decide on our own. I certainly do not understand your interference, President Hawk and your expression then makes me conclude you and Cat had something which I think was far from being true since I am well aware of your upcoming wedding with ballerina Han. So this whole Cat ordeal between us was something I do not understand,"
"What's with you and Cat by the way?" Cat's date asked, wondering why the hell was Hawk Monsanto trying to shame him in front of everyone.
"It's none of your business anymore," Hawk dismissed his question as if he was not worthy to ask it.
"It is my business because Cat and I were very positive whatever we have right now can lead into something great" He refuted him once more that only angered Hawk that he ever was. "Cat was to become my woman and —"
He was not anymore able to finish his words as Hawk already threw a hard punch on his face. Together with the man's painful groaning was the shrieking of the crowd who became an audience to their boiling argument. Hawk who then all filled with anger had thrown it all on to the man whom he thought Cat was favoring and the thought of it was all too frustrating that one punch wasn't enough to gratify his blood lust. So just after his first punch, Hawk threw another and another until the theater was all filled with chaos. Cat's date tried all his might to dodge all of Hawk's attack and defended himself but at the end, Hawk who was all used to violence won over him that in just ten minutes his punches was then feasting on his rival who was already at the floor, bloodied.
"President! President!" Lucas, who was then alerted by the situation, rushed to the scene first than guards of the venue did but he was all too late. Hawk had already let everyone see his ruthless and mercilessness that what was left of Lucas to do was drag him away from his almost unconscious prey.
All the guests were left dreadfully speechless on what took place. It was such a dreadful sight and those who caught the argument started whispering they were all quarreling because of a woman. These words of course reached Feather and his heart sank to the deepest of the sea with no hope of recovering. Helpless, she could do nothing but flushed a surprised and fearful look at her fiancee.
