Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 17: Saturday.
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

Lucy's pov;A glared at Travis who walked up to us.If only he could read the expression on my face,he would know I wasn't happy to see him."Finally I have got to meet you. 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." Travis said."Hey dude, she

Lucy's pov;I just stayed in the house quietly avoiding problems, because my step family just wants to get angry by any means possible.This morning I took Danny to kindergarten and went to work. My stepmom offered to pick Danny up from kindergarten today, because after the stolen wrist watch issue, she started acting nice to me.I needed help so I took her up on her offer.After my first part time job, I came back home at eleven am and I got into my room, opened my wardrobe ,at the bottom of my luggage there was a purse I was saving money inside, I put money into my purse and smiled.I have saved a lot.I know that in a few months Danny might not want to wear a tux anymore, but I was saving money to buy it for him, even if he doesn't want a tux, I might buy something else for him for his birthday.I was saving up to buy gifts for his birthday and I have saved a lot, that I can buy anything he wants for his birthday. I put away the purse into a safe place where it has been for a whi

Lucy's pov:Finally his mother has come to his rescue."Your son stole my money,he needs to give it back!" I yelled at her."Stop shouting at me Lucy,have you started accusing my son of stealing from you again? I won't let this one go, you better shut up your mouth!" She yelled back at me."Cooper came out of my room again and you told Danny not to tell me, how can you be that evil?" I asked Mercy who clenched her fists but said nothing."Cooper, don't you know that stealing that money is more like stealing from a child! You are just plain evil, you don't belong in this house, you belong in the streets!" I yelled angrily at Cooper as I took angry breaths."That's enough Lucy,you can't stay in this house and insult my family." Mercy shouted as Flora,my step sister, came into the kitchen."What's all the yelling for?" Flora asked."Your brother stole from me,tell him to give me my money." I told Flora.Cooper just stayed silent and didn't bother saying anything, because he knew he was g
Last Updated : 2023-03-24Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 21: A plan to leave.
Lucy's POV;I have avoided exchanging words with my step family ,because honestly it wasn't worth it. They always steal from me and I always let it go, but they still show no remorse and continued stealing from me when I was out of the house each day, busting my ass working just so I could provide for my son.I didn't own much, so our things were fitted in two luggages. I made sure to only take the essential things I needed, the rest of it I just left it in the wardrobe. If my step family wants to take it ,it's their business.Since I know I can't do anything to them ,it was best I leave. The next morning ,my plan to leave began.The first thing I did was to take Danny to kindergarten and then I headed to Mr. Desmond's company building.He told me that he needed to interview me, so I took a cab to his company building.Upon arriving at the company building,I got to understand that Mr Desmond is actually filthy rich ,so it made me wonder why his son was going to an ordinary kindergar

Lucy's POV;The next place the driver stopped was Danny's kindergarten, where we picked up the kids and we got into the car."Miss Lucy, why are you in the car with us?" Joseph, Desmond's son asked me in confusion."Well, I will be your nanny from now on." I told him and his eyes sparkled."Really? Daddy did it, yeah!" Joseph squealed.Daddy did it?Does it mean Joseph wanted me as a nanny since."Danny, we are going to stay together from now on." Joseph told Danny who was in the back seat with him."Does your Daddy stay at home as well?" Danny asked Joseph excitedly.Danny seems fond of Desmond."Yes Danny, when my Daddy comes back from work you will see him." Joseph told Danny who smiled."Yeah." The kids cheered, they were happy with the arrangement.I guess I don't have to worry about Danny not adjusting well to the new house. I talked to him about leaving our old house yesterday. He seemed a bit sad but I was glad he was happy now.The driver was driving for a while. I haven't be

Lucy's pov;Felicia, the head maid, wasn't even looking at the muddy shoes or the muddy floor, she was apologizing to him for not being here to welcome him back.Oh !I think I would get fired ,when I haven't even stayed up to a month.Oh my big mouth."I am so sorry sir, I have been mopping the floor since morning. I was just upset that I saw mud on the floor ." I apologized immediately and he narrowed his eyes on me."Did something happen sir ?" Felicia asked after my apology, but Mr Desmond didn't reply to her. He was still staring at me...more like glaring.His glare was intense."Why is she here?" He asked Felicia through gritted teeths and I furrowed my brows in confusion.Did he seem to forget that he was the one that hired me?He should see I was working."I haven't told her about some certain rules sir, I am really sorry she has just stayed here for two weeks." Felicia informed him.Felicia was an older woman, maybe in her mid 50's so I think she has stayed here long."I see,

Lucy's POV;Joseph and Danny got tired of sitting on the blanket on the grass ,so they stood up and began blowing bubbles and chasing after it ,while I watched them with a smile on my face and Desmond was eating the snacks.I smiled happily ,as I watched them play.Danny didn't have this much fun at my Stepmom's house, because he had no one to play with at home and my stepmom was always cooking so that was the only thing she did with him when I left him in her care."You seem to have gotten wary of me, did I do something wrong?" Desmond asked me out of the blue and I frowned."No sir ,you didn't do anything wrong, I just understood that you are my boss and I shouldn't act too friendly towards you." I replied not sparing a glance at him."That's why I wanted to apologize for what happened the other day." He said as he cleared his throat."There is no need to do such a thing, I understand I crossed a line and I apologized." I replied."But it seems I got you upset since you were mopping

Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 81: Epilogue.
ONE YEAR LATER Lucy's POV: We waited for a year before we could proceed with our relationship. The kids were so happy when we said we were now together. 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. I was scared of asking him ,because I think the answer he will give me would upset me more. 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
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 80: She died.
Desmond's POV:I was at work when I received a call that Vera was in the hospital. She was hit by a truck and was taken to the hospital.They told me she was in critical condition and I needed to come back to the hospital quickly.I rushed out of the company building, got into my car and drove off to the address of the hospital.She should be at home ,because I know very well that I didn't give her any money to go anywhere, she must have gone to see her parents.Gosh!Is she even supposed to be driving by now?I got to the hospital and was told where she was, the doctor didn't look happy he said he was sorry and that I should go and talk for the last thing, there was nothing he could do, he told me the impact of the car was too strong and they tried their best and now left for her is to survive.From the way the Doctor was talking, he was telling me it was best that I have a last talk with her.What is going on?Vera was just so lively recentlyHow can she be in this state?I called h
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 79: Crazy Plans.
Desmond's POV:Vera refused to accept the divorce.And she also refused to leave quietly in the house.What she does everyday is to wait for me to come back from work and she starts bothering me with nonsense questions.One day, I came back from work and she asked that we talk.I agreed to talk to her, because I thought she wanted to say something about accepting the divorce.But she just said bullshit."I want to work in your company." 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
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 78: Let's break them up.
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
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 77: She refused.
Desmond's POV:After consoling Lucy and reassuring her that it will be fine ,she left my office and headed back home.No matter what happens now, I have to think about my happiness and my happiness lies where she is.Joseph,my son,has already told me that he sees Lucy as a mother figure.Joseph took a liking towards Lucy because Danny, his friend, told him how much his mum loves him.I guess it was from then that Joseph told me to make Lucy his nanny. 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
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 76: I want to be with you.
Desmond's POV:I sat on my bed, I sighed deeply.What should I do now?I couldn't sleep a wink last night because Lucy told me she wanted to quit.I was having a hard time already because of Vera,why does she need to add to this problem?I can't really blame her because of her actions. 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
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 75: Preparing to leave.
Desmond's POV:Vera called me up to her room and she was happy when I came.She was wearing a see through nightgown that left nothing else to imagine.I don't know why I felt disgusted by her actions, and what she was wearing just made me uncomfortable.She tried to touch me and I moved away from her."Why did you call me here , please say what you wanted to say so I could leave." 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 won't even dare it, when she was acting this crazy and tre
Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 74: I might leave.
Lucy's POV:By the sound of Flora's voice I could tell she was doing well.Even though they treated me badly I just wish the best for her."I saw your mother and she told me you got married, congratulations." 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?" Flora, my step sister, asked worried about her mom's safety."I d

Lucy's POV:Mercy, my step mom, cleared her throat.She was fidgeting with her fingers, why was she wasting my time?"Oh, how is Danny ,how have you been?"She asked."Fine to both questions." 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
