You cannot be threatened to vacate someone’s premises in seven days. You can only be given seven days' notice of the owner’s intention to recover the premises, and if you refuse to vacate, they may approach the court to remove you. No one can physically remove you. Consider approaching your landlord to see if you can settle. If your landlord refuses to settle, then find alternative accommodation, because when the matter goes to court your landlord may seek rent for the period you remain on the premises.
