Quinn's pov

"Dad?!"

"Finally you realize. I can't believe you. You're really one of the dumbest people I've had to work with,"

Colby tighten his grip on me. I could tell he was uneasy. my dad slipped the mask off his face. His stubble was heavy and grey. His once black hair has silver streaks running through it.

"Ah so this is the one I've been wanting to meet," he looked at Colby "you're so out if his league,"

"So you wanted your own daughter to kill herself?"

"Well if you were dead I wouldn't have to share the business with you. You graduated so now legally I have to share it with you,"

"Since when do YOU care about being legal?!"

He laughed

"Oh Quinndel. Quinndel, Quinndel, Quinndel,"

"Leave me alone!" I screamed

"Don't raise your voice at me!" He yelled at me "I'm your father!"

"SOME FATHER YOU ARE!" I lunges forwards but Colby grabbed me and held me back "YOU LEFT ME. I WAS ALL ALONE. HELPLESS. I NEED YOU BUT YOU WERE 'GONE' BECAUSE YOU FAKED YOUR DEATH!!!"

He didn't say anything

"Where mom?" A tear slipped "I want her. She was always good to me, where is she?"

"She's dead darling,"

"W-What?" I broke down a little

"You see she was trying to shut the company down behind my back so she had to go." He wiped his finger across his throat symbolizing death

"YOU MONSTER!"

Colby tightened his grip on me so I couldn't escape

"You need to take over the business,"

"No,"

"Yes Quinndel,"

"IM NOT DOING IT!"

"Yes you are!" Anger poisoning his tone

"NO. I. AM. NOT!"

"I can't believe you. Quinn you were my little girl. You'd follow my orders before. Why not now?"

"Because I've grown up! I don't have to listen to you! I'm my own person. I belong here with my new family because you ruined ours,"

"You don't belong anywhere Quinn,"

Tears swelled in my eyes

"You're just a spoiled bitch. You're ungrateful. Can't you see? You're the odd one out in this group! No one wants you here! You're here by accident!" He spat at me with anger lingering in the air

I didn't say anything

"You got here by accident." He pointed at Colby not breaking his piercing gaze at me "him loving you? Accident. You're friends? Accident,"

The tears dropped.

"Let's go," he said

"No," I said almost In a whisper

"What was that?" He turned his head up look at me again

"I said no," I said a little louder

"Speak up you rat,"

"I SAID NO!"

"Quinndel!"

"GO AWAY ETHAN TAYLOR!" I used his real name against him

An emotion I have seen in a very long time filled through him. Rage.

"DON'T YOU EVER CALL ME THAT AGAIN!" He screamed

"LEAVE ME ALONE AND I WON'T!"

"YOU NEED TO TAKE THE BUSINESS!"

"NEVER!" I screamed at him with so much force. A high pitch bloody murder scream that I swore could've broken glass

"THE ONLY WAY YOU CANT TAKE THE BUSINESS IS IF YOU ARENT A TAYLOR!"

"wait, you weren't coming to let me get married and change my last name?"

"No! You need the last name Taylor. That's why I proses for a son but I just got this pathetic daughter,"

"Well what if I want to get married?!"

"Well then he'll have to have the last name Taylor,"

I paused

"THATS DISGUSTING!" I realized what he meant "JUST GO AWAY!"

"NO!" He screamed back "I'm. It leaving without you. I need you,"

"I'm not going. I'm a legal adult so I don't have to follow your orders,"

"QUINNDEL MAE TAYLOR!"

"If you love me then you'd leave me alone," I said almost a whisper

"What?"

"I said if you loved me then you'd leave me alone," I said loud enough to hear

He didn't say anything

"Exactly what I thought. You've never loved me. you always hated me. No matter what I did I was never good enough to you EVER! I tried and tried but no. You were always disappointed in what ever I did,"

"Quinndel that's not true,"

"YES IT IS!" I broke down crying again

I knees sank and my torso fell to. Before I could completely fall Colby grabbed me. He stood me back up.

He hugged me and held me tight as I sobbed into his shoulder soaking his shirt with tears

"You never loved me dad. Ever,"

No response

"So the only time you care about me is when YOU need something. I see how it is," I paused "if I had actually killed myself all those years ago you would've cared... cared because you'd have no one to run the company. Not because your daughter was dead,"

He didn't move. He didn't speak.

Even when the doors were pushed open and cops came swarming in he didn't move. I could've sworn that as he turned away a single tear fell from his eye.
