Chapter 113 - Marcus Obsession

Marcus nodded his head putting a faint smile on his face and left the living hall walking upstairs in his room.

Shutting the door hard, he took the vase from the side table throwing it on the mirror hung in his room, breaking it into pieces in his anger. 

"Blake.. Blake only Blake, did he forget that I'm also his son" he flared his anger throwing things down on the floor in anger.

Marcus had never liked Blake from the very beginning. After his mother started sharing her love with Blake, he felt more envy towards him. He never liked when his mother always preferred his request to fulfill first.

Even after so many years have passed still the anger for him didn't subside, instead it even grew more when Blake took over their father's position as the new CEO while he was given a small department to handle.

Marcus was not as studious as Blake in business related matter, so Luther wanted him to give some time to learn the business tactic before handing him the responsibility of his other company.

Marcus was boiling in anger and now that Rosie was introduced as Blakes girlfriend there was no chance of him having her. He had always liked Rosie from his collage days. Both Bake and Marcus went to the same school and collage when his heart got attracted to her.

He always thought of her to make his girlfriend even after knowing that Blake liked her. All his life he had been felt inferior in front of Blakes achievement's even drawing his mothers love towards him.

"Why Blake... why... You always snatch my precious people away from me. First it was mother and now Rosie" he gritted his teeth trying to calm him rage but even if her tried he couldn't accept the fact of Rosie marrying Blake.

Days went by in a blink of eye, even Rosie came to meet his father every weekend and started getting close to him. She was loved by his father too and was slowly mixing with up with their family matter.

Whenever, he saw the couple showing their love publicly he would feel his blood boil making him more envy Blake and his father.

The hate towards his brother increased to the point where he started to make scheme to separate them.

Present

Elena was listening his story very attentively, she never knew he had a brother who was against him and envy him so much.

Blake took a deep breathe recalling his past, they would have been so happy if Marcus heart would have not change. This behavior changed so much where they couldn't even get him out of it. 

"How did you find out about his plan against you" Elena asked when she heard him stopping his words.

"Your father was the one who found about his illegal business inside our company" he looked at Henry

"Yes, I have got a search warrant against him and his partner August" he said continuing Blakes words.

Flash back,

When Rosie's father didn't agreed for our marriage, they decided to elope getting married the next day itself after he took her away from her house.

Rosie had this feeling that her father was being pressurized by someone to change his decision about their marriage. But she couldn't find who was the person behind him.

After registering their marriage, Blake brought her to their house and was welcomed with open arms by Luther. But the only person who was shock with their sudden wedding was Marcus.

He couldn't handle the fact about his failure against his brother and he ended up killing her father whom he blackmailed to stop them from marrying.

Rosie was devastated by her father's death, she felt it was her fault because of which he lost his life. They tried investigating about the person who killed her father, but Marcus was always two step ahead and would easily erase the trace without him being involved.

When Blake was working, one day he got a call from Henry who told him about Marcus being using the companies funds for illegal business and has an arrest warrant against them . At first Blake wanted to tell his father about his wrong doing behind their back but later decided to handle the matter by himself.

"Henry can you postponed this arrest, I can't let father know about his backstabbing thing so early, he would feel dishearten"

Henry agreed with him as he had very good relation with Blake and Luther. That evening he tried to confront Marcus solely, he wanted to know why was he doing all this. Getting inside his room, he was shocked to see the image's in front of him.

Marcus had Rosie's photo hung all over his room, the photo were from her college time till now. Shocked by his brothers obsession's towards his wife, he couldn't hold back and dashed towards his father's room.

"Dad I need to show you something" he shouted getting inside his fathers room.

Blake didn't knew his brother was such a cheap person who had wrong intention towards his sister-in-law.

"What happened Blake?" Luther had never seen Blake with this much furry. He could sense their was something wrong which made him loose his cool.

Taking his father to Marcus room he showed him Rosie's photo's hanged on the wall. Disappointed by his son's character, he called Marcus to clarify himself.

"What is all this Marcus?" Luther couldn't believe what Blake said to him about his illegal business.

"Father.. shouldn't you be happy that I am making my own name rather than using yours" he smiled like a manic.

"From the time mother left, have you ever asked me how was I surviving all these years. You only cared about your blood, and fulfilled his need but what about me dad.... am I not your son" he lashed at his father and brother.

Rosie was witnessing everything with her eyes, she had always felt Marcus was someone who didn't like grooming with anyone and preferred having his time alone in his room. But what she heard, she couldn't help but feel pity for him. How did he think about her like that, she never gave him any hope and from the very beginning he knew she loved Blake. 

"She..."he pointed towards Rosie," I have liked her even before Blake knew her. She was my professors daughter. Just to have a glimpse of her I kept following her in hope that one day she would spare a glance at me. But no...she fell for my step brother...Wow.. the one who followed her she never gave him a glance but fell for someone whom she met after him" Marcus couldn't hold back his anger towards everyone. Now that he didn't had to keep pretending like a nice man in front of anyone, he didn't care what they thought about him.

"You should have not lock yourself away from us son" Luther felt bad after his lash. Marcus had spoke everything what was in his heart. Did he think lowly of them all way long.

Luther had never distinguish between both his sons, even though he was not his flesh still he considered him as his family. But what made him think about them in this way.

"You should have asked me dad what I wanted, but you always preferred him rather than me. And I don't regret anything because I want to have my own life but you ruined everything" he pointed on Blake as he rushed to punch him but was held by the cops who were called by Rosie.

"You are under arrest Marcus Thomson" Henry handcuff his hands.

"You gave me no option Marcus" Rosie walked in front of them. She was angry on him.

She slapped him hard on his cheeks before throwing his bracelet on his face," You killed my father..."she yelled and again gave him a slap.

Luther and Blake looked at her in shock about the new revelation they got.

"What do you mean?" Blake pulled her back making her look at him.

"Blake he was the one who killed my father. The day when his autopsy was done the cops gave me his clothes and inside them I found this bracelet. At first I didn't wanted to doubt anyone but when I saw that Marcus had also lost his bracelet, that time my doubt was confirmed" she cried hugging him.

Luther couldn't believe what he heard, he turn to look at Marcus who head was hung low," You swine...."he went and slapped him," What went wrong in my upbringing, how did you change so much Marcus" he laugh at himself.

"I can't blame you after all you are not my blood. If you were my son, you would've not done this crime. Killing someone to fulfil your plan is a sin" he lashed and turn his face away from him in disgust.

"Now you disgust me about being your son, then why did you married my mother knowing that she had birth me without a wedlock" he felt more remorseless. He was not even a percent guilty about his crime but still kept blaming them.

"Your father use your mother to warm his bed making her pregnant before dumping her" he looked back to watch his shocked face.

"Henry take him away. Make sure to charge him life sentence" Luther didn't spare a glance at Marcus as the cops pulled him away with them.

"I'm sorry for your loss daughter" Luther joined his hands in front of Rosie to forgive him for his son's crime.
