This time Marcus couldn't help but shiver a little as he stopped eating on hearing Butler Andre words, he really didn't have a pleasant memory of her of any sort. He could still remember when he was still young and Butler Andre with his late Grandfather were out on a business trip when he caught the flu so she was called in to help. She almost scalded him with hot water giving a squeaky clean bath which left huge scars in his memories. After surviving the incident everyday for close to a week he refused to have his bath with hot water for close to a full month, Pulling himself out of his thoughts Marcus had to admit that Butler Andre words sounded reasonable since his Aunt Katherine was totally that kind of person that loved to pull strings in the dark. He had being so focus on holding the company together that he totally forgot about the only sort of kin he had, Marcus finally cleared his throat before he spoke and you could tell from the tone which he used that he wasn't parti
The atmosphere was a silent for a split of seconds as Sophie Mum had her eyes on Butler Andre who tag along which Sophie was quick in noticing and spoke to clarify the situation " This is Butler Andre, the family Butler of my Husband " this was probably the first time Sophie ever those set of words or said it proudly unfortunately Marcus was not here to listen in. Butler Andre nodded a gave a slight nod as followed a short exchange pleasantries before instructing Ethan to help out with the load before leading the way to the helipad spot that was just around the corner, Sophie didn't need to up as any effort with her Mom wheelchair since it was fully automated. After putting out of earshot distance between Sophie Mom finally spoke " we have lot of catching up to do and so you better don't lie to me but that would be for tomorrow, I just need a hot bath and a proper sleep at this point " Sophie couldn't agree more with her Mom since she was also dead tired although it wa
Within a few minutes Sophie had the setup completed and connected to the multiple interface meeting that she was scheduled to have despite being two minute late, once she got connected Amber was the first to take the initiative in speaking " we saw the text you sent in the evening, so we assume that everything is going on smoothly between you two or did he finally get admitted that he charmed by your beauty ? I don't every get how you always being the lucky one getting all the right guys " Sophie didn't reply to Amber words since she knew that it was just to have her flattered rather she reply with her own set of words " That didn't happen rather I think I got us some space with some funds to start with through the help of Butler Andre who is back by the way but Amber and Claire will have to tag along to see the place. I don't want you guy's to quit your job over something tha isn't worth it yet .. Oh right Amber Mom is back so you might want to pop to the Mansion tomorrow morning be
It only took a few minutes for Butler Andre to locate Marcus position and head back towards the kitchen with him of course as he shield but Sophie's Mom was unusually filled with energy this morning so she naturally would let him slide easily so she spoke once Marcus had gotten seated and comfortably eating his burnt eggs with toast. " Butler Andre could you help with making coffee, so.. Marcus how are you Sophie didn't tell me much on how both of you meet. I'm sure you don't mind telling her poor Mom " This time Marcus wasn't stunned by Sophie Mom's words since he had expected it and had made proper preparation this time but he couldn't help but grumbled internally since he could see the clear connection between Sophie and her Mom in terms of attitude. " Sorry maybe later, I have stuff to do at the office and I should probably leave now since it is already sunrise, plus me and Sophie are going to my Aunt's place for the weekend…" Marcus was hardly finished with his sente
>>>>>>>>>> Sophie had a hard sneeze on their way towards their new office location. Her mind was occupied with seeing the office space so she didn't think that someone would be thinking of her at this moment but if she did Marcus would surely be the last person on her list. This time Sophie couldn't help but ask Butler Andre about the office space since the car was taking the route towards the outskirts of the City " Butler Andre is the office space located at the outskirts of the city?" Butler Andre took a moment to catch up his breath and construction his words internally before replying to Sophie question " Miss Sophie you are right about that but Marcus probably didn't tell you what this place meant to him, this was also were he built his company from scratch to allow him seem worthy of taking over the company. If my memory serve me right he spend most of his childhood around here alone working to see a smile on Old Master, I guess you must be special e him that why he chose this
On seeing the text Marcus sent in Amber already knew that she should probably sit back on this one since it would only get messy if she interfere and at the very least Marcus couldn't go back on the contract he had with Sophie so they were relatively safe to some extent, Thankfully Butler Andre was able to read Amber expression before speaking clearing the awkward situation " Miss Amber, you seem to be in a hurry to leave. I could make arrangements for your departure " Butler Andre words also pulled Sophie back to reality as she immediately spoke apologizing for her little aggressive display that just played out " i'm sorry about that just now but what with you leaving, we hardly just got here or checked the place out " Amber hold the urge to say that their was nothing to check out at this moment apart from the lot of space that the garage turn office space had but taking Sophie mood at this point she refrain from saying so. " Claire just texted me a moment ago that they
Sophie went towards her mother room for a quick exchange of pleasantries before heading out of the Mansion in which she met Marcus on her way but it was best to say that they weren't in speaking terms after the fight that they had, Sophie of course felt more frustrated since she felt that she had give in lot of her time into the maintaining the relationship despite being superficial and a marriage of convenience. " Miss Sophie we can head towards the helipad now, I'm afraid that if we go by road we won't be able to make it and I'll also had Miss Amber come check on your Mom while you are away " Butler Andre voice pulled Sophie out of her thought but she followed his instructions without asking while still maintaining a good amount of distance apart from Marcus as they made their way towards the helicopter that was parked just a couple of metres away from their position. Although she had to admit a huge chunk of whatever Marcus said earlier was true, it didn't mean that he
By the time that they were done with their meal it was already pitch black outside and Sophie with Marcus were already showing sign of fatigue so Katherine had to call it a night before escorting them to the lounge before speaking " You don't have to be too cautious the most dangerous animal you probably find here would be a deer, but unfortunately because of our space problem both of you would be sharing our repair shed. Just make sure your Moan don't get to the Cabin " Since the latter part of Katherine's words was some sort of compliment Sophie gave a cute face before they had a quick exchange of goodbye pleasantries as she had to head back towards the cabin which was a quite walking distance. Marcus took the initiative walking into the repair shed, Katherine had place a lamp forehand so it was quick easy getting the layout of the shed within a minute but a frown was formed at since the supposed bed that was presence could only accumulate a person and they had a little p
Sophie was done hardly done with the meal when her alarm went up and she took it's as her cue to leave " I guess I got to go but the still a lot of time to catch up and about the meal it's would be better to go by normal cream instead of blueberries" Benson gave a light chuckle before speaking " Sophie wait, I actually called you here because of this…" Sophie was stunned by Benson sudden kiss but she she quickly reciprocate for few minutes before pulling herself away from Marcus before it got pretty heated " Now since I'm back and also being a head chef, I can fully take care of both of us and you don't need to put up with Marcus. You said it yourself he is gloomy " It was at this point that Sophie realised the effect of her action with Benson although they were in VIP suite there was no lack of people around that would recognized her since she had been in the news lately too much , Sophie spoke quickly placing her stuff into her bag while getting up leave
Sophie could tell that she woke up pretty late since the sun was very much out and taking in account everything that happened yesterday she wasn't surprised much as she felt a little bit refreshed from the long sleep and she still had a lot of extra hours before the world tech conference so she couldn't be late. Heading towards the restroom for a shower Sophie wasn't bothered the lack of Marcus presences on the bed since apart the fact that they gotten pretty close from yesterday convery that she could tell what he was saying with his eyes from yesterday she also knew how Marcus deal with work so it's wasn't surprising or hard to know. Once she was done with freshening up and was about to head out to kitchen to fix herself some breakfast she got a beep from a unexpected someone which she hadn't meet for a long time Benson he was also the person that help her get out a tight spot when the incident with Dave was still fresh and also help her with the job as a waitress ev
Butler Andre took the initiative on speaking on spotting Sophie " Marcus said he would be back in a moment but I guess we don't need to wait for him when everyone is presence " " I'm sure he won't come since he is always gloomy without exception at the very least we would have a extra plate of meal for us " Butler Andre knew that it was almost impossible for Marcus to miss this dinner especially with Sophie being present and whatever he had going on, of course Butler Andre didn't mentioned it out loud since it would be less interesting as the situation unfold. Within the next five minutes the dinner table was all completed with everyone completely seated and of course Marcus was the last to arrive, Once they were all seated Katherine took the initiative in speaking as the host of the dinner also taking a cup of champagne for a toast " I'm sure the past year haven't been the best for all of us since we have lost something or someone that is which is dear to us but
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> It was afternoon when Marcus arrived back at his Mansion with Aunt Katherine with him , she had somehow convince him that she would stay over for as long that his relationship with Sophie reach a stage that she was satisfied or in other words it's would proper to that she was here to give Marcus love advice not like he had a choice to refuse since she would do it anyway without him permission. Marcus wasn't surprised that's he met the Mansion empty since it wasn't hard to figure out that Sophie made plan's to explored the once she was done with making sure that everything went smoothly for tomorrow tech conference, He motion for Bella before speaking " Aunt Katherine this is Bella she would help you with anything that you need and I'm sure you know your way around the Mansion since you aren't old to forget that. Bella who also informed the other Mansion caretaker about the feast that would take place tonight " Since they wasn't any need for
Katherine finally spoke " Come on if you don't tell me everything I can't help but just admit it the little stunt I pulled help you out and I'm sure you know you might be running out of time " After endless number of teasing Katherine was finally able to have Marcus open up to everything, of course she felt the urge to burst into laughter more than ever since beneath the cold Aura he always had on Marcus was totally clueless to love.>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sophie had a hard sneeze unaware that Marcus' recent revelation was behind it, she didn't put much thought to the kiss since she thought her and Marcus already had an understanding to act like a couple in the presence of her Mother. She was finally able to convince her mother to tag along in their trip as Sophie felt she needed to purchase some gown and accessories for the tech conference something worth Marcus status as a billionaire plus she was was itching to go on a shopping spree something she hadn't done in a while, with her knowing
Sophie could hear her Mom fuming about being left alone and how busy she was to give her a grandchild, she didn't comment since it would make things rather complicated so she waited it out for a few minutes till she was done with her outburst before she spoke " Come on Mom, they still a lot of time to do that it just happened that we are busy at this time of the year. " The next ten minutes was spent on meaningless struggle within them while waiting for Butler Andre to return before they dig in for breakfast, Sophie Mom to a minute before she was able to regain her composure from the laughter she was having before she spoke " You haven't told me how the trip on meeting Marcus Aunt went, you didn't even bring it up since you arrived..." " Miss Amber have arrived in the Mansion and she would be joining you for breakfast in a moment " Butler Andre presence but a stop to Sophie Mom words which Sophie use best of this opportunity mumbling all her words in a short sentence " I promise we
Emily scuffled a little before she spoke since it was clear that that Dave was clearly teasing her " You better don't be overconfident Marcus isn't a run over either, I had a gut feeling why these was easier than normal so I hired a private investigator and found that his father left the company in chaos plus it already a miracle that the company didn't file for bankruptcy and was able to maintain it former status quote " Emily's words no doubt reduce Dave's initial excitement making him realize the numerous problems they had and Sophie was still in the picture, if she had the opportunity to get into their server she would throw all their hard work into the bin since she was the creator of the software. With her words having the expected reaction that she had in mind on Dave she spoke " don't worry much we have a flock of billionaires in our network that we can lay on plus Sophie can never have access to our security system, what about we close the office door like you sa
Having not other choice than to head back to the Master bedroom to check how he was faring Butler Andre spoke giving a order to the housekeeper "Olivia, have the pancakes that I placed in the refrigerator heated up and brought into the Master bedroom with two plate since Young Master might be hungry " Even without waiting for Butler Andre lead Sophie had already begun to made her way to the Master bedroom to check up on Marcus although she was heavy pissed to a point at this moment since she was totally stress out and need food to regain some energy which Marcus being awake delay that factor, since there was no conversation between Butler Andre and Sophie they were able to make it back to the bedroom within five minutes but the scenario they saw wasn't what they had expected even for Sophie. Marcus had already taken his bath and was in his sweat suit occupied with work on his desk space although Butler Andre knew that Marcus had a lot work piled out for him he totally didn'
Once they had alighted from the helicopter and Sophie had exchange goodbye pleasantries her initial reaction was to go check on her mother who was somewhere in the Mansion but on the second thought she decided to follow Marcus back towards the Master bedroom since she still wasn't sure of his health statistics and it was definitely not a good idea to leave him alone, plus she still had to carry her luggage back to her room. Marcus didn't care whatever Sophie did at this point since he could feel himself getting foggy with every passing second and that wasn't a good sign for anything. At this point he would probably give anything for a proper sleep on a comfortable bed. Bella stop them for vacation brief second on their way towards the bedroom taking the initiative in speaking " Butler Andre just arrived a few minutes ago before your arrival and he currently have the family doctor setting up in the Master bedroom " Bella words brought some sort of relief to Sophie
