Lucy's POV:

The next morning got me in a happy mood.

I told Bella about Travis's call. I don't know why I felt happy talking to him over the phone.

I don't know if I was just glad that someone was being nice to me and paying attention to me.

I know it sounds childish but that makes me feel happy.

Bella just keeps telling me to do what makes me happy and if going out with Travis would do that ,then she was happy for me.

After working at the cafe, I had to pick up Danny from kindergarten ,and to my surprise I saw Desmond there, his son and Danny were playing, while Desmond was talking to one of his teachers when I arrived.

"Danny ,darling mommy's here." I called out to Danny who turned and ran up to me with open arms.

Desmond must have heard my voice because he stopped talking to the teacher and turned to me and I smiled and waved awkwardly at him.

Joseph also ran towards me and he and Daniel were standing in front of me.

"Good afternoon Miss Lucy." Joseph, my son's 5 year old friend,

    Lucy's pov:Today is a Saturday. I was checking the time on my phone constantly,to make sure I wasn't running late, but oh boy even if I was checking the time, I wasn't done yet.I was dressed in a white wrap blouse and blue trousers and kitten white heels, these are clothes that are at the bottom of my bag ,that I never wear because I had nowhere nice to go but given that today I needed to dress nice I decided to wear it after much deliberation. I was staring at the mirror getting my hair done , today is the day I had a date with Travis. I was sitting in front of my dressing table, looking at the mirror while I packed my hair into a bun and checked to make sure it was okay and it wasn't poking out on any side since my hair tend to be messy at times, when I was sure It was alright, I then checked if the makeup I was wearing was too much." I think the red lipstick is too much." I said out loud and I heard an audible sigh and I turned to Danny who rolled his eyes dramatically at me.

    Lucy's pov:I sighed in frustration."What made you think I was going to ask you to pay for my meal?" I asked him.I barely knew him ,so of course I was going to pay for my meal.Travis had the guts to roll his eyes at me."I know how women are, you don't need to pretend to be good in front of me okay, you can be honest with me,I just wanted to remind me you that you would be paying for your meal so you won't get embarrassed here if you order something expensive and can't pay, because I don't want to be considered a bad guy if I leave you here if that happened." He explained in a condescending tone that made me angry. I wondered what made him think I didn't know what to do on a first date, Travis looked back into his menu even though I was glaring daggers at him at this point."Travis." I called his attention but he didn't look up ,so I slammed my hand on the table and he looked up to me."Good, now that I have your attention, I don't know what type of person you think I am and I don

    Lucy's pov:Travis frowned at my outburst.My outburst made the people sitting on the tables closer to us turn their attention to us and Travis let me go,when he saw the situation would not favor him."You have to pay for your meal." He told him as he stared me dead in the eyes and I just stood and stared at this man.He only cared about the bill and not the fact that he annoyed the shit out of me.I was about to say something ,it was then that I saw someone that I wished to not see ,standing behind Travis. I think he just came into the restaurant because I saw him with a friend.Mr Desmond was staring at us and by the look on his face, he must have heard what Travis said and he must think of me as a cheap woman who goes on dates to order expensive dishes and lets my dates pay the bill.I closed my eyes for a moment as I just wondered what type of bad luck I had and I opened my eyes.I hoped that Desmond would not get involved and luckily he didn't, he walked further into the restaura

  • Ceo Daddy In A Tux   Chapter 15: Missing wristwatch.

    Lucy's POV;I was sure that I locked my room before leaving for my date today, and no one could have access to my room unless the person has a key, the only person with the spare key to all the rooms in the house is my stepmom and I don't think she would just hand the key of my room to Cooper.Or could I be wrong?Daniel, my son has his son room, it was my room when I was still young and it was just a small space and he didn't like it much and stayed in my room most times, but whenever I leave for work I lock my door and he stays in his room, that is if he wasn't playing in the living room or playing with my stepmom.I know that sometimes kids say things that are not correct, but I had a hunch that it was my step siblings that had been stealing from me,as if paying rent at home when they were not wasn't enough, I had to always be looking for my valuable items and money.I don't even have money and I am also raising my son alone, but they are heartless to steal from a single mom.If no

He was a rude man and I don't want to associate myself with him.I don't know if he told my stepmom anything, but she said nothing to me.In fact, Mercy,my stepmom has been ignoring me after our confrontation ,so I didn't know how to bring up her son Cooper coming out of my room whenever I saw her. I just greeted her and left. I had to drop Danny off at Bella's house the next day after our confrontation before going off to work.Even though I know my stepmom offers to watch my son during the weekends because she's like spending time with him ,after our confrontation yesterday I don't think it would be a good idea to leave my son with her, I trust her not to harm a child but my mind won't be at ease knowing that Danny was with her after our argument.Bella was at home watching her kids, so she was glad to help me watch my son as I went to work and I thanked her ho

    Lucy's pov;The next morning, when I was taking Danny to kindergarten, Mercy stopped me when I was almost out the door.She had a worried look on her face but she tried to hide it behind a frown, but I saw right through it."If you really want this wrist watch I can give it to you, just don't accuse my son of theft." Mercy said to me and I shook my head."I will not take it back because Cooper has not admitted to stealing it, when he admits that he stole it I will consider taking it,besides this isn't the first time something has gone missing in my room ,it's best my boss handles this." I told her and she frowned."Why are you trying to make things difficult ,when I have already told you I will give it back to you?" Mercy asked me angrily."I am running late ,I have to drop Danny off at the kindergarten,excuse me." I told her."Lucy ,don't bring trouble to my doorsteps or you won't like what I will do to you." Mercy threatened but I ignored her and left the house and took Danny to kin

Whenever I come to your house to see you, your stepmom tells me you are at work ,I didn't know you were that busy." Travis said."What do you want?" I asked in a stiff voice."I have been calling you and you refused to answer my calls, is it because of what happened on our date I thought you were the one that wanted to leave?" He asked him."Travis, I don't have time for your nonsense today just leave me alone." I told him and turned to Leo."I am sorry but I don't think…""What do you mean i should leave you alone? you have to explain this clearly to me, why aren't you answering my calls?" Travis said, interrupting me."You can clearly see I was talking to someone before you came along." I said as I turned to him and he scoffed."I just want to know why you are not answering my calls."

Even though I know Desmond feels upset by how things ended with Vera, he can't bring her back so we could only just move on. Andrew, who was responsible for her death, is already paying for his crimes behind bars, but I think Desmond was upset that this ended this way. I know he wanted a good relationship with Vera even after their divorce ,but she didn't want to make it happen. Desmond was really nice ,he told me he wants us to take it slow. I wonder if he partly blamed himself for the death of Vera, or if you blame me for it, because it was Andrew, my ex boyfriend, that killed her.

No matter how much you put the past behind us ,we know very well it will be a part of our life now , since they are also our kids' parents. "What are you

She announced and I looked at her as if she was crazy."What?" I asked her."I thought about it and we clearly don't know each other enough, so I decided to consider the divorce if you let me work in your company in a high position." She told me and I just stared at her as if she had grown an extra head.What could she possibly be scheming to make her want to come to my company?I know well enough that I did not want to see this woman anywhere in my company, so I can't accept it.But on second thought ,I could fire her if she did something bad."If I g

    Lucy's POV:Desmond has already told me that he has asked her for divorce but she refused.I knew that Vera would try to fight this.Desmond isn't the type to lie, so I know he wants to divorce her even though it will take some time now, because she has refused to get a divorce.The only thing that Vera could do was send me text messages asking me to stay away from her man. These days when Desmond leaves for work I leave with him and go and help Bella in her cafe.When the kids return back from kindergarten the bodyguards are with us so they stop Vera from doing anything stupid, which she has tried a couple times.She hasn't been alone with me since this started ,so I have no problem with it.Desmond also gives me breaks on weekends, I go out with the kids and go and rest in one of his apartments.Desmond doesn't come with us , because he has told me that she has accused him of cheating and wanted to cook up some lies to prove she was a victim ,so he needed to be careful until the di

I wanted to see her for myself so I went to the kindergarten. I was glad that I went there and hired her as his nanny.I had to get prepared for meeting up with Vera ,because I want this done as quickly as possible.I can recall my parents telling me if things get too hard for me I can always fall back to them for support, even though I might not need your support now in the future if I have a problem, I might contact them.I met up with my lawyer to discuss the divorce. The divorce was not going to be favorable for me, because the law

It was my indecisiveness that was causing all these. I know that I can't have both of them and I had to pick one, but the problem is I know it isn't Vera that I want to pick.Considering how crazy she is behaving, if I was to ask her to leave, she might try to ruin my reputation.But if Vera stays here and as she is still legally my wife, I know that Lucy would definitely leave.She told me how angry she was when her ex-boyfriend cheated on her with a woman.I know well enough that she doesn't want to be called the other woman , a mistress, I can't even subject her to such a thing.I wasn't that evil, I just can't help but blame myself for bringing Vera into my happy home.I wanted to talk to Lucy when

I told her.The longer I spent in her room the more annoyed I got."Well." She purred and I cringed."Vera, I think you should wear something that covers up before we can talk." I told her because I didn't want to see her dressed this way."Why?" She was surprised by my request."Because it makes me uncomfortable seeing you in that dress." I told her , while avoiding all eye contact with her ,but I could tell my words angered her.She shouldn't blame me for pushing her away because the last thing I wanted to do was make the mistake of touching her.

I told her."Thanks." She mumbled."Even though I saw her, I also had low contact with Mercy, your mom, but I think you should talk it out with her if you two have a disagreement. You know how she is, she doesn't have anyone to rely on but you." I reminded her."Why do you even care what happens to her? I thought you hated her?" She asked.I told her I didn't hate her mother, neither did I hate her, I just disliked how they treated me.Flora told me she just wanted to give her mum time, since she couldn't accept her marriage.I informed her that her mother was not looking too good when I saw her and getting back in contact with her now would be the best thing to do, or there might be consequences."Is my mom sick?"

I replied and I saw her fidgeting with her fingers."You know I really regret telling you to leave the house with Danny, I should have thought about it carefully before asking you to leave." She started and I listened attentively."Okay." I mumbled."I should have told my children to leave you alone and defend you so you can stay, I didn't mean to encourage their bad behavior towards you." She said sadly."Don't push all the blame on your children,I hope you haven't forgotten you also treated me badly?" I asked her and her shoulders dropped in defeat."I haven't forgotten." She mumbled.Good thing she hasn't forgotten how badly she treated me, because she was just trying to put all the blame on her children when she was the one enabling them."If I tell you to come back home now with me,would you
