Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 23: Picnic.
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

Lucy's pov;Every day in the mansion made me feel rejuvenated.I am really enjoying this life that was by far away from my toxic step family who just stole from me.I was helping the kids to do their homework in Joseph's room.I have told Danny that he shouldn't go into Joseph's room everyday, but he didn't listen to me because Joseph always asks him to come in and Desmond doesn't mind.Joseph was curious about everything, so it wasn't hard for me to guide him on what to do.Joseph is really a sweet kid, I don't know why all the other nannies he had got fired.After helping him with his homework he thanked me."You are really great Miss Lucy, thank you, the other nanny was always looking at Daddy whenever I was asking her a question,she never paid attention to me." He informed me."Oh, I guess you didn't like her?" I asked him and he shook his head."I didn't like her, but I like Miss Lucy." Joseph told me happily as he continued doing his homework.Desmond is really handsome and rich

Lucy's POVAfter the encounter with my boss , Desmond,I just stayed outside near the garden.If he was trying to get a reason to fire me, heck I wouldn't give me one.I went to the back of the house and sat at the garden bench.This was the only place I knew I could stay and hide from Desmond since the maid attended to the garden this morning. I don't think they will be coming back here for the rest of the day, so it will be only me here.Even if they come looking for me they will find me. I will just stay low here so it gets a little bit dark then I will see if Desmond has gone to his room."Lucy, what are you doing here?" I heard a familiar voice out and I turned my head to the direction of the voice to see Felicia.Heck what was she doing here?Did Desmond send her to come find me since she was the one that had been pleading on my behalf."I just wanted to have a moment to myself, that's why I came out." I replied."Who exactly are you trying to fool, I don't think it's me. I heard

Lucy's POV:I turned to the voice and smiled."No thank you." I replied as I scurried off somewhere but with him.This guard always gives me the creeps with the way he was always staring at me.I have been here for almost a month and he was the only one I found weird. I better stay far away from him.Last thing I needed was a man bothering me now."What were you doing with him?" One of the maids asked me suspiciously.Oh now she's gonna spread news about me that ain't true.I need to defuse her thoughts,I don't want her thinking I was in a relationship with the guard."Oh nothing, I was just thinking while I was walking. I lost my way and he called me to bring me back to reality." I told her."Oh I thought it was something else, ma'am Felicia is looking for you, I think she's in the kitchen." The maid informed me."Oh ,okay thank you for telling me." I replied as I scurried off to the kitchen.I met up with Felicia and she told me to go and check on the kids, so I went to check on the

Desmond's pov;I was walking down the stairs after getting dressed for the shareholders meeting I had.I wanted to call out for my driver ,when I saw Lucy was mopping the living room with her back turned to me, my footsteps were light so I think she didn't hear me.I decided not to disturb her as I got down the stairs, I could hear her humming a song to herself,I think she knows how to sing because her humming was right on tone.I stopped a foot away from her."Good morning Lucy." I greeted her and she flinched as she slowly turned to me.I always wonder why she makes all this surprise looks when I call her."Good morning,sir, I didn't see you there." She said as she cleared her throat."You seem uncomfortable around me." I said as I took a step closer to her and she took a step backwards."See what I mean, you stepped backwards just because I walked towards you." I told her."I was just surprised to see you, you just showed up out of nowhere." She said as she rolled her eyes at me."

Lucy's pov:The past never seems to want to leave us alone, it haunts us day and night.I thought I was prepared,but I guess I would never be prepared to face that one man that I trusted with my whole heart and body and he threw me aside when he was done with me.After Desmond mentioned Andrew's name, my mind was just blank.I was genuinely happy that Desmond was understanding and did not ask about Andrew any further when he saw how upset I was at the mention of Andrew's name.Desmond is just unbelievably kind, even though I was glad he didn't ask about Andrew, that night, I couldn't fall asleep.I tossed on the bed for hours, different scenarios of Andrew and I meeting played in my mind, it all made me feel so upset and angry.I finally fell asleep after all the restless tossing around on the bed, but I had a nightmare, one that shook me and made me feel scared.I jolted upright from the nightmare, panting and sweating.I had a nightmare where Andrew took Danny, my son , away from me

Lucy's POVI went back to Desmond's mansion ,so the driver and I could go pick the kids up from school.In the night when the kids were in bed I wanted to talk to Desmond, but the maids and employees were not allowed to go upstairs because that was where he stayed. Even Joseph, his son's room, is downstairs. I heard Desmond moved his son's room downstairs after he fell from the stairs and broke his arm when he was young.I waited in the living room for about an hour checking if Desmond would come downstairs, but he didn't.Felicia saw me and asked why I was still awake."I need to talk to Mister Desmond about something important, so I was waiting here to see if he would come downstairs." I informed her."Can't you wait till tomorrow ,you can tell him what's on your mind when he's going to work?" Felicia asked.I don't know if that crazy lady, Helen, was actually following me ,so I should inform him that she might be monitoring anyone coming out of his Mansion, including him."No, I

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
