Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 26
Alexa I was on time. I always am. But Derrick was in his office. Four weeks of working in this office and I have gotten here before him once. He was always there sitting at his desk or pacing his office and making some calculations. He was a ghost that haunts that place every time. I vaguely wondered if he had a secret room in there and spent his nights there. I sorted through his emails for any priority issues he had to reply to. None. I switched the browser to Zillow. Now that I had gotten my first pay cheque I was looking into making a downpayment on my own place. Oliva was great for accommodating us this long but Hen and I needed our privacy just as much as she does. The real estate agents I've been talking to are not taking me seriously and the ones that did cannot offer a house that was close to Hen’s school. I didn't want to establish him in a new school and then uproot him and plant him in a strange school in such a short time. I also didn't want to be far so he could stay

I turned back and reached out for the box as we made eye contact.I knew he was angry about me making excuses about certain work outings, I should’ve told him about Henry but I don’t know why I can’t.It’s like when it comes up, I freeze and I change the topic but sooner or later I would have to tell him.I can’t keep this away from him. Of all people he should know why I can’t work late and why I have to leave earlier than him.As I walk out of his office I pick up my phone to inform Olivia once again that I would have to inconvenience her and apologise.“Hey Olivia,how are you,hoping Henry isn’t stressing you too much?” I asked her but I could hear Henry giggling and her chuckling “Of course not silly,Henry and I are having so much fun,when would you be back?” She asked and I sighed “We have a work outing that I need to go for tomorrow and I was hoping you could help me look after Henry for the night.I know I’m inconveniencing you but it’s important and urgent and I couldn’t talk my

I had lost my temper when she told me she wouldn’t be attending the Prince event, how dare she?Even I didn’t get that sort of invite.I was burning with fury in my insides, and I knew for certain why.I had worked long and hard for this deal and I wouldn’t let her ruin it for me.The Prince event was also going to bore me to death and I needed her to be there, for my selfishness, to gaze and to stare at her unending.I felt a knot in my throat as she jumped slightly from my roar, she looked terrified and I felt a pang of regret for throwing my outburst on her. I had even threatened her with her job. She was going to do as I say and not what she pleases.She had tried to fight back a little, her voice shaky, and I had to send her out of my office before I did something that would send both of us into shock.Having calmed down a bit, I took the retriever and dialed her number again. She entered my office quietly, looking more comported than the last time.“You called me”, her voice ric
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 29(Alexandra)
I didn't get the chance to tell Derrick I would be going to the Prince event with him, seeing the way he coldly discarded me. He had told me he didn't mind me not going and he had already informed the Prince that I had a little problem back home, but I already made plans with Olivia to babysit Henry for me, i called a taxi and headed home straight from work, I needed to see my baby, I missed him so bad and all I wanted right now was his tiny hugs and powdery scent all over me.During the silent car ride home, I couldn't help but be grateful for Olivia and Emma. They had made life so easy for me despite them having their problems to deal with. Especially, Olivia, she had looked after Henry like she was his own, and I and Henry are going to miss her terribly if we eventually moved to our apartment, I felt sad at the thought of leaving Olivia, but we were eventually going to have to leave her anyway. I felt like we've intruded on her privacy enough and it's time for me and my baby to mov

The office line rung intruding my thoughts and I felt irritated, I wasn't expecting anyone to call the office at this time, so I grabbed the receiver and wanted to tell the person off,“Hello,” I recognized the voice immediately, the voice of the one who's been haunting me for the past few weeks now, and I felt a certain release of blood in my veins, her voice calming down my tensed body, the feeling was strange to me but I liked it, and I wanted to get used to it.“Alexa, is there any problem”?“Yes, um, sorry…No”.Was she okay?“I would be going to the Prince event with you, sir”. My heart flipped over when I heard her say that.“Okay, send your home address, and I’ll have my driver pick you up in 20”, tried my best to hide the excitement I felt.Since she was going, I needed to look good too, for her. Why do I care all of a sudden about how she thinks I look? I knew my answer. I took my car keys and sped home like a raved dog, got into the cold shower, and let the water hit me hard
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 31
By the time I came back from the party, I was freaking exhausted, I had a wow time with Prince Hammeed and who knew the man had such a good sense of humor, Derrick was cold as usual and although he tried to make some small talk with me, I couldn’t respond well to him, because I have never had anything to say to him asides work issues.I bade him goodbye after he dropped me off and he did well to remind me of the job we had down the next day.I went into Henry's room to check on him and I saw my baby was fast asleep, I kissed him goodnight and tucked him well in the blanket. Olivia had also gone to bed and there was not much to do around, I went up to my room to have a good night's sleep but surprisingly, I kept turning and tossing on my bed, it was strange because I was already falling asleep in my boss’s car, I had such a wonderful time at the Prince event and I was already pretty exhausted from all the partying, why was I finding it difficult to sleep?.I noticed Derrick's cold gaze
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 32
“What? What?”, I was confused, why would Derrick get me flowers? He had asked if I had a problem with it, I was dumbfounded and I knew I lost all my composure right in front of him.The question is why would he?It felt like I was in a wild dream getting flowers from Derrick. He even asked if I had a problem with him getting me flowers, of course I do.He got me flowers, out of the blues, and he acted like it wasn't a big deal. This man never ceases to amaze me, one minute he's blowing hot over me, and the next, he's getting me flowers.“I want to know why you got them for me, sir”, I probed further, he wouldn't dismiss me this time like he always does.“Well, I thought you deserved them, for the deal you made us get with Prince Hammeed, and for last night”.A smile crept slowly to my lips. How sweet, I thought,“Thank you, sir, that was very thoughtful of you”.I turned back, almost bolting through his office door,“Alexa, he called again, and I groaned inwardly“What would you like,
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 33
I let my intrusive thoughts take the better of me, and I immediately ordered flowers and even asked Alexa to lunch. It’s been long I did such things, and I smiled at the thought of me being foolish once again.I had been so embedded in my work that I didn't know when the time passed.I looked up to see Alexa standing in front of me, maybe she's eager for lunch just as I was, but the expression on her face didn't seem right. She looked too happy just for a lunch date, or was she happy because she's going with me?, Was she feeling the same way I felt?Her pale voice broke me out of my reverie.“Prince Hammeed is here to see you, sir”.“What?” My eyes widening, Why would the Prince visit me in my office without any prior notice, on the day I wanted to take Alexa to lunch. It took me thousands of intrepidity to ask this lady here for lunch, and this fucking Prince just ruins it.“Send him in”, trying my best to hide my irritation.“Alright, Sir”I watched how Alexa gently ushered him int

I left the office to go to Russia, partly because I wanted to shield away the temptations I was having whilst being close to my Secretary, but the increase for her only seemed to worsen, I spent both day and night thinking and reminiscing about the two of us being together, and I so wished for it to happen.I couldn’t concentrate solely on the work I had in front of me, I had managed to convince Mr. Ragnakov of how much work I’d done for him, when in reality I had done nothing.The person I was trying to shield myself from was the one that kept haunting me day and night, but I’m a good way.The past weeks I spent here were to only torture myself more as I yearned more for her now that she wasn't within my reach, she wasn't a call away like it used to be.My mind drifted off slowly to Diana, and I wondered how she was faring now. I had intentionally left my private line back at home so I wouldn't be bothered by their constant disturbance.I made a mental note to send flowers to her as
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 42
It’s been two weeks since I last set my eyes on Derrick, he informed me he was traveling a day earlier and wouldn’t know when he would be back and just like a puff of smoke, he vanished, for two weeks, without looking back, even though the office was run successfully without his presence, the office still felt void as I came here every morning.And every morning I came to the office, I hoped I would see him slouching on his chair or concentrating on his work as he always does.I hated to admit it and I didn’t even want to admit that I missed him so much. It was completely lonely and empty without him at the office, to boss people around, to make snide remarks at people, or even boss me around.Aside from Derrick, my life was completely going according to plan, I had gotten some new pieces of furniture for the new house and painted Henry’s room. I had Olivia come check out the house and she was just as excited as me and Emma.She also helped in picking out some exquisite furniture for
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 41
After Derrick left the office, I dived back into my work like no man's business.I was so intrigued by the development of building a new software that I lost track of time. When I finally looked up to check the time, I saw it was far past and Derrick hadn't gotten back to the office. He said he was just stepping out for a minute, but I was glad he wasn't here because I faced no distractions in the morning and I had done an incredible amount of work since I was alone.Since it was already lunch hour, I got up to get something to eat when I received a call from the house agent telling me he was ready for me to go see my house.Excitement washed over me and I immediately sent him my office address so we could meet outside, and we would go together to see the house, I quickly snacked on the sandwich I brought from home.I was done eating in no time and Mr. William pulled up to the front of my office and put a call across to me. Since there was no sign of Derrick yet, I took the initiative
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 40
I had reservations about Alexa’s capabilities when it came to giving her a tough job to handle, and I knew the main reason why I pitched the job to her was mainly because of the encounter I had with the Prince yesterday.It wasn’t a big task, it was a very minute task but I still had doubts in my mind.I found it funny that just yesterday the prince came into my office and brought up the idea of buying Alexa for himself. It looked to me like ages ago.The events that had taken place right after made it look like ages ago. As much as I was not willing to give her something she wouldn’t be able to handle, I did it to make her stay and not get swooned by whatever promises the Prince might have made.I would deal with Diana much later, except for the fact that my mother has been buzzing my phone nonstop since she heard the news of Diana’s accident. I wasn’t ready to deal with that just yet.Despite my hesitation about Alexa, I forwarded her the emails and everything she needed to work wit

I woke up to check my time and I saw that there was no way I wasn't going to be late for work today, going to work late was a thing, facing Derrick was another.I quickly got out of bed and rushed to Henry's room to get him ready, darting to the kitchen to make a quick fix for breakfast before heading to the bathroom to have my bath.In no time, I was ready and so also was Henry. We Bid Olivia our goodbyes and I made a quick stop at his school to drop him off. Then I headed to the office.Thankfully, Derrick wasn't in his seat and that was so unlike him. I went to the receptionist area, made a hot cup of black coffee, and headed straight to Derrick's office. Setting it down gently, I took a good look at his office, even though his office was breathtakingly beautiful, it lacked warmth. Just like Derrick himself.“What are you doing in here staring like that?” The Husky voice made me wheel myself around.The sight of him was almost a nightmare. He looked so tired and stressed out with h
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 38
I was still perturbed about what happened back at the office, I sat quietly in my room in pitch blackness wondering how she was feeling and if my actions had forever strained any relationship I might have with her in the future.I should have waited till she was ready and I wished in a corner of my mind she had accepted for me to stay over for tea but I understood that after what transpired in the office, she might be feeling a little bit uncomfortable around me.A part of me liked that I kissed her and wanted more, but a part of me also felt that wasn’t the right thing to do. I kept thinking of her, what was going on in her head, and how she reacted to my touch.Every attempt to remove her from my thinking proved abortive. I tried working but I couldn't concentrate on anything. Images of her beautiful yet innocent face kept flashing in my head and I caught myself smiling when I envisioned her face.She had even sympathized with me about Diana and I knew she felt that was the reason
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 37
I heard the noises outside and rushed to the window to get a better view of what was happening. Not in a million years did I picture the image that was displayed right in front of me.My boss’s girlfriend just had a fatal accident, and I witnessed the heroic show that Derrick put into saving her life. And I wondered what could have transpired between them,They were just ogling over themselves a few minutes ago, and now she was lying helplessly in the middle of the road. I silently prayed that she wasn't dead because I was sure it would cause Derrick to be torn into pieces and my work might become more insufferable.I waited patiently past closing hours, even when the other staff had all dispersed home, I had to wait for Derrick to come to the office first. I was in serious doubt as to if he would make it back to the company or if I should just leave. If the accident was very fatal, I doubted Derrick would make it to the office again. I decided to time myself and if Derrick wasn’t bac

I looked at the lifeless body of Diana and I felt I was in a dream, I had the premonition that something like this would happen, yet I still let go. And I partially blamed myself for what happened. I could have had her board a taxi before leaving her but I still left her on her own unprovoked after I’ve said some hurtful things to her.The streets were thrown into a mishmash as everyone wanted to know what was going on. I slow-paced to the scene of the accident and was almost happy as I noticed there was still a slight pulse on her breathing, I immediately sprang up into action.Thankfully, Andrew brought my car in the nick of time and I slumped Diana over my shoulders while Andrew drove over to the hospital like a lunatic.“Diana, please live”. Was the only word I kept muttering to myself.I would never be able to forgive myself if anything happened to her because I was the only one who could have averted the accident but I chose to ignore it. I could have been nicer to her, or maybe
Billionaire Baby Daddy Chapter 35
I got a call from a strange number and I was tempted to pick it up, but I couldn't, my hands were shaking, I could feel my body vibrating from anger and my mind wasn't sturdy enough. I watched the phone ring till it broke off.I got another call from my mother. I knew I was supposed to take her to dinner today but why was she calling so early? It was just past lunch hour. Despite my reluctance, I picked up the phone.“Hi, mom”Hi darling, how are you? Her voice was so breezy and it calmed me down a bit. But what she said next had my heart racing ten times faster than it should.“I just got off the phone with Diana, it's such a delight to speak to her after all these years, isn't it 4 years now?”“Diana? What the hell are you doing talking to her?”.Why would my mother still talk to Diana, they had gotten along 4 years ago but that was in the past and I intended to keep it that way.“And Yes, Mother, it's been 4 years”, I said, grimacing.“What do I need this piece of information for?”
