A Mistaken Night With The CEO 53| Sister's advise
Derrick stood up from the stool he was seated beside the bar in his sitting room. He was having a glass cup of wine and dropped it to check on who was there.Approaching the door, Derrick pulled it open and saw his immediate elder sister, Nicole standing there with her baby in her arms."Can I come in?" Nicole asked with a smile curved up her lips."Yes, come in," Derrick replied, moving away from the door as he went back to sit drinking.Nicole knew her brother was going through a hard time. He had never taken a liking for any of the maids before. She would soon be going home, so she came to see Derrick first.Derrick sat on the stool, his back facing his sister as he resumed drinking."I'm already going home, and I just came to tell you goodbye," Nicole said, and Derrick remained quiet.Derrick had thought that his elder sister came to scold him, but the reverse was the case."It's alright. Drive safely home," Derrick replied. He didn't turn to stare back at his sister as he continu

Derrick moved away to the dining table, away from his mother, as he didn't say a word to her. Also, he sat at a far end of the dining table, sitting on the chair three seats away from Lady Loretta and Alex."Mama, what did Uncle do to you? You should forgive him," Alex said, innocently, and Lady Loretta smiled."Derrick didn't do anything wrong to me directly. But you remember Miranda, right?" Lady Loretta asked, just as the rest of the maids stepped out from the kitchen to serve them breakfast."Yes, I know the pretty maid, Mama. I wanted to marry her, but Master Derrick warned me to keep my distance away from her," Alex said, thoughtfully, and Lady Loretta sighed once more."Hmm, Derrick shamelessly slept with her and sent her away.""What!!" Alex's hold on his spoon tightened."Uncle did what? My goodness!' Alex gasped, and he met Derrick's gaze, who frowned and looked away from them. Derrick had warned Alex not to show up at his house, yet Alex disobeyed him, and he knew, that was
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 55| Remembering the past
As Derrick snatched Alex's phone away, Alex frowned and looked at Derrick angrily, who didn't even wait for him to type what he wanted to type.Alex wanted to write, "I have missed you," but Derrick quickly snatched the phone and stared at Miranda's page. Derrick saw that it was truly Miranda's page, as her profile had an old graduation picture of her.Seeing her pretty face again, even as it was a throwback picture, the picture seems to bring back the memories of the first day he saw her.Derrick remembered how nervous Miranda looked when she saw him arrive home then. He had just lost his father and been given the position as the new CEO of the Luis Corporation. He wasn't happy about how his father had died, after everything they did to save his father's life. His father still suffered from heart failure and passed on.Derrick didn't want his mother to suffer the same fate, as he didn't know what had caused his father such heart attack. He admired Miranda from the first day he laid h
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 56| Miranda's response
Miranda's heart raced to her lungs, and she wondered, "What does Master Derrick want from me?" She clicked the message and read it, and he asked her, "Hi, can you please come back home? My mother misses you, and she really wants to see you again?"Miranda stared at the chat as she wondered how Derrick got her chat name. She blinked her teardrops away, wondering if she could tell him that she was expecting his baby.Miranda shook her head and decided not to tell him."No, I cannot tell Master Derrick that I'm pregnant. I know Mother would be worried, and not like him. As he wouldn't want to see me by himself. What should I do now?" Miranda wondered as she saw Derrick typing again."I know, I asked you to leave, but you can come home now. My mother really wants to see you again? Where are you? I will send my driver to come pick you up?" Derrick texted, and Miranda's brows furrowed as she read his message."Wow! He didn't even apologize to me for sending me away, he didn't apologize for
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 57| Cutting him off
Derrick felt enraged after seeing that Miranda had blocked him online. He sighed as Alex's word replayed in his mind, "Miranda doesn't want an arrogant man. Why not confess your feelings to her, Uncle?""Hmm, but I'm not in love with Miranda. How do I confess my feelings to a maid of no value?" Derrick scowled as he kept his phone away.Later, when he went downstairs to have his lunch other than phoning the maids to bring his lunch. Lady Loretta was sitting at the dining table, dressed in a long blue gown, and she didn't call Derrick to join her."Mom," Derrick strolled over to the dining table. He thought to contact Alex to help him beg Miranda to return.Lady Loretta didn't reply to Derrick as she continued enjoying her lunch meal alone. She was eating a plate of rice garnished with fried chickens, and the maids had already excused her.Once the maids saw Derrick walked up to the dining table to join his mother, they inquired of him, "Sir, should we serve your dinner now?" Derrick

She decided to resume going to her shopping mall.As Miranda prepared in her room, it was a brand new week, Monday. Miranda got out of her bed and went to bathe. As she stepped out from her bathroom, she donned a blue gown and black sandals. She went to tend to her appearance in her room mirror.Miranda had learned to stock up her house with food products so she wouldn't have to wander about, looking for where she would purchase her household items.She knew that her neighbors were trying to pry into her life to find out who her husband was, but Miranda didn't give them the opportunity. In the apartment building where Miranda lived, on the top floor, a pregnant woman lived there with her husband. The lady was newly married and didn't hesitate to show off her ring in the presence of Miranda, thinking that Miranda was dating other women's husbands.In the building, they had four tenant

Erica Harrison was still in disbelief that Miranda was the true owner of the mall. Although, she knew so well when they were still in college that Miranda usually came with a lot of provisions compared to the rest of them. And when she had asked Miranda then who she was, Miranda had told her she was an orphan.Erica couldn't believe Miranda, which is why she called Lady Blessing Kingston back to verify if Miranda was the owner like she had said to her."I'm sorry, Milady. But we have closed for today. How about you come back tomorrow at 8am, and we would be ready to attend to your needs," Lady Blessing spoke politely to Erica, but Erica frowned her pretty fair-skinned face, adorned in light makeup."But Miranda, I thought you said you own this mall?" Erica queried, and Miranda smiled."Yes, what would you like to buy? We are still growing, I don't know if we would have what you're in need of," Miranda asked, as she knew that sometimes her mall lacked some of the customers' needs."Oka
