Ceo Daddy In A Tux Chapter 43: Maid.
Lucy's POVI could see that Desmond was angry at the thought that If the kids were the first to taste the food, it would have ended badly."Sir, I don't think firing the person is the right thing to do." I chipped in and Desmond turned to me."Should I get the person arrested then for trampling with my food?" He asked and I waved my hand frantically.Woah he just blew this out of proportion."No sir, I was trying to say that firing the person was too harsh of a punishment." I corrected my words and he made a face that likely said,you should be backing me up in this."Lucy ,I see that you don't want to say anything reasonable, so keep quiet." Desmond told me, as he turned his attention to the maids.He is actually really angry."Wouldn't anybody say anything?" He asked them."Look at Lucy acting as if she is righteous, who are you trying to save and why are you acting like a good person all of a sudden , when you are the one that told him to look for the culprit?"

Andrew's POV(Lucy's ex boyfriend):I was deep in thoughts, my mind kept wandering to different places.Five years is too long to be looking for someone.One might say it was long, but I found it too short because I wanted to reconnect with Lucy.I wanted to hold her when I fall asleep, I want my touch to be the only touch her body knows.I still wanted Lucy to be my woman and now that I found out I don't know how to let her go, I can't let her go because she is mine and I have a son with her, it completes our family.No matter how much she pushes me away, I will come back ten times harder because she is mine and mine alone, no one can take her away from me.I was so glad when after much investigation I found her step mom, that woman is money hungry, after just tossing money to her side, she easily told me all I needed to know about Lucy all these years.Lucy didn't date anyone until recently when she went on a bad date. I knew from the beginning that I was the only one for her.I am th

Desmond POVI was looking over some documents ,when I paused for a while to check some pictures on my phone,it wasn't just any pictures,it was the drawing that Joseph my son and Danny Lucy's son drew. I took a picture of it so I could look at it from time to time.This drawing reminds me of a complete family that I wanted for my son, I also for this complete family.Even though I was taking care of my son , I know I am doing a good job but with Lucy staying with us, I know she can do a better job at taking care of my son.Lucy would make a good partner,she just gave me peace of mind,one I thought I lost a long time ago.My eyes widened as I just understood where my thoughts were going off to.I shouldn't be thinking like this, but I can't help it.I sighed as I shook my head to get rid of the intrusive thoughts, I pinched the bridge of my nose as I sighed again.Lucy, I have been thinking about her a lot lately and honestly I didn't know why I felt the overwhelming urge to be close t

Lucy's POV My life has been hectic ever since Andrew suddenly showed up, he just had to wait for me to be doing better to come so he can ruin it. Thank goodness I met Desmond. If not I would have thought that all men were just rude and controlling. Till today I haven't forgotten that bad date I had with Travis,that made him think we were now dating, that guy is insane. I know I shouldn't be thinking like this, but I can't help but always compare Andrew and Desmond, there's no way I will be going back to Andrew even though I was a bit reluctant to cut all contact with him. Andrew hurt me deeply, but I still felt sorry for him and I was angry at the way things turned out. I really hoped things would have gone a different way, I hoped that we could have continued to date in peace but that couldn't happen because of Tory, his best friend and affair partner. Desmond came back from work today and he was acting a bit weird and distant, I instantly knew that something was wrong. I de

Lucy's POVDesmond has been so kind to me ,that I don't even know how to repay him. I could only wish him well and take care of his son as best as I could.I found myself sitting in the living room at night, I think it was about nine pm and the kids were already in bed , but Mr Desmond was not home yet.I wonder if something happened to him?I have never seen him go out on weekends, because he always rests at home, unless his son says let's go out and eat.I was surprised when he invited me to go out with him as normal friends but I refused. I don't want to be put in the position where someone would ask about my relationship with Desmond and I won't know what to say.We have a good relationship, but I don't know what to call it.Are we friends or is he just my Boss or is there something else going on between us?It was confusing.Desmond went to drink with friends, friends I thought he didn't have, that's why I was more worried about going out with him, since I have never met any of h

Lucy's povIt's been two days ever since the kiss with Desmond.For those two days I haven't seen Desmond even once. It felt as if he leaves for work very early in the morning and comes back very late at night so that he won't see each other.It was just a hunch I had as to why I haven't been seeing him, but he might also be busy that's why I haven't been able to see him, so I don't know what to think.I just went about my normal day as if nothing had happened.Nowadays when Andrew sends a text message to me, he asks about his son Danny.It's as if you just shifted his attention for me to Danny because he knew that Danny is where my heart is.I don't know how many times I have told Andrew to leave you alone and stop mentioning my son's name, but he doesn't seem to listen.He has money to spend on unnecessary things, that's why if I block one number, he gets another phone number to call me or send me a text message.It felt as if all I had said to him and all the insults fell on deaf

Lucy's POVI turned to look at Desmond."Why do you think that it's for the best to avoid me?" I asked him curiously as I watched him."Lucy, I can't give you what you want." He told me."What do you actually think that I want from you?" I asked him and he sighed."I don't know what you want from me, but what I do know is that the kiss was a grave mistake, one that shouldn't happen again." He told me in a low voice."Desmond I know that you are my Boss but I honestly felt an attraction..." I tried to say but was interrupted by him."You are mistaken ,I feel nothing for you." He cut off my words and I scoffed.Desmond doesn't want me saying anything about him having feelings for me, when it was clear that we were both attracted to each other.I can't go back to Andrew, because even though we had good memories,he was the one that hurt me most."Do you actually expect me to believe such a lie?" I asked him in disbelief.Desmond smacked his lips as pinched the bridge of his nose, he was h

Lucy's povI was upset by the conversation I had with Desmond, he didn't want to open up to me.I had to just take a step back and wait for him to approach me instead.I would not deny the feelings I have for Desmond,but he was right.I haven't cut off Andrew completely from my heart, I don't know why I was reluctant to sever all ties with him,maybe it was because of Danny, our son.I was still contemplating this and I understood that Andrew was feeling pressured because he wanted to meet his son, maybe in the near future I will consider it,but right now he was acting crazy.I thought that maybe Andrew had changed and his apologies were genuine, but I got served a notice from the court, Andrew was fighting for custody of Danny.Is he crazy?After all the stunts he pulled ,I didn't even report him to the police but he wants custody of my son. I was even pitying him and wondering how I would be able to set up a meeting with him and Danny in the future, now he goes and does this.I calle

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

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
