Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Meanwhile, April was walking through the gardens with Grandpa Joseph, they had reached a white gazebo that was covered in Ivy and white blossoms, and there was seating and a table under the canopy of the gazebo.

"Shall we sit for a bit?" Joseph asked as he pointed to the seats.

"Mmm, it is getting hot now," April replied, she took Grandpa Joseph's arm and helped him sit on the wooden bench.

Just as April sat down beside Grandpa Joseph her phone rang in her pocket, she wanted to ignore it. But she had phoned Aarna and had got no response so she glanced at the number. Seeing that it was her father's number she was going to ignore it when Grandpa Joseph said, "Pick it up I don't mind."

April was unsure but with Grandpas go ahead she took her phone out of her pocket and answered, "Hello."

"April, sorry to bother you. I just wanted to see you today if possible. Where are you staying now?" Martin asked.

April sighed in her heart, what father doesn't know where their child lives she thought and waited for months before contacting to see her. April responded, "Dad I am staying in the Davis manor with Dean. I am getting work done to my condo and Dean's grandfather has kindly let me stay here for a while."

"Oh, I see. "Martin replied he didn't know where to go from here. He didn't know how to repair his relationship, but he wanted to start.

Grandpa Joseph was savvy and had heard the conversation he held out his hand to April.

April was confused for a moment before she took the phone from her ear and handed her phone to Grandpa Joseph.

Joseph held the phone to his ear and greeted Martin. "Hello, this is Joseph Davis speaking. Do you wish to see April, if so you are very much welcome to come to see her at the Davis Manor?"

Martin was taken aback, yes he understood that his daughter was Dean Davis girlfriend but he didn't think she would be living with his family in the Davis Manor. The Davis where in a class of their own, they basically owned the City, their company had ties with all the large industries.

Martin lost for words then said, "Come to the Davis Manor?"

"Yes, I will have the security let you in we can have dinner and chat about our kids future," Joseph said. He wanted these kids to hurry up and get married and give him adorable grandchildren.

Rachel was sitting in the background and had eavesdropped on the whole conversation, she was hiding behind a wall but upon hearing Martin say the Davis Manor she forgot herself and grabbed the phone from Martin.

"Hello, hello my name is Rachel Green. May I know with whom am I speaking within the Davis Manor?" Rachel walked away from Martin with the phone in her hand. She wanted an invite for herself and her daughter. Any chance to get close to Dean Davis she would take, it would be all worth it if her daughter could land the successful CEO.

Martin was shocked at how brazen Rachel was being, he shook his head and followed her.

"That you do not need to know." Joseph was clued in on all the goings on within the Green household, he wouldn't let anyone who treated April badly to be anywhere near her.

"Oh." Rachel didn't know who she was speaking too so she wanted to keep being polite. "What time would you like us to get there?" She boldly enquired.

Joseph dryly laughed before adding, "You are not invited only Mr Green will have access into the Davis Manor."

"You..." Rachel said, but she was interrupted when Martin grabbed the phone from her interrupting her and cutting her words off.

"I'm so sorry about that Mr Davis." Martin quickly apologised, he didn't know how friendly The Davis family were being with his daughter but the man seemed kind enough so he didn't want Rachel's words to change that. He had ruined enough of his daughter's life by adding Rachel and Lucy to it he didn't want to hinder her future.

"Mr Martin come by for dinner, we eat at six. I'm sure I do not need to tell you that your wife and step daughter are not invited." Joseph was firm in his approach to this subject.

"Yes, I understand." Martin glanced at Rachel who was pouting beside him and added, "I will be there thank you for the invitation."

After that, the two men said goodbye and hung up the phone.

Joseph turned to April and saw her apologetic eyes, he sighed that she would have to toughen up if she was to succeed in this harsh world. Her heart was young and caring she would have to build walls around it to survive.

Joseph wanted to give her his advice on the subject, "You have to understand that they fear you, you are empowered, and you found your voice. The truth will come to light. They are the kind that wears a false mask to everyone, they lack spines and slither with their own lack of self-worth."

Joseph handed back her phone and April took it from him, she nodded, "So you are aware of…everything." She then realised that she had nothing to hide from Dean or his grandfather, they already knew.

Joseph nodded and added, "The truth is there is nothing scarier than a woman who is confident in her own power and knows their own self-worth. Your divine power shines a light on their own darkness."

April nodded, she agreed that these two women had enjoyed more than their fair share of good times and had even stolen too much from her and her mother already.

Joseph smiled and reassured her, "They can try to push you down but you are the type of woman that will always rise and it scares them. So face them head on, if you trip me and Dean will always be there to help you back up. You are a Davis now."
