Lucy pov Richard isn't looking happy as i thought he would, I guess it was the sickness that made turns in his head. we didn't get to chat much in the morning when i came in . I went to meet him in his study room and it was all about office work. "Did i do bad by coming here"?I asked myself Poor Lucy ,I hit my head on the wall for thinking that Richard was in love with me, I let the fun of yesterday get into my head and lead to my assumption of Richard being in love with me. While in the study room, it was like he was trying to avoid my gaze. "Well Lucy i guess you have to get rid of your feelings for him to avoid story that touches the heart" I tried hard to stop the tears that formed in my eyes. Why curse my heart for being stupid to love Richard, I tried but could not stop the tears, it ran down freely from my eyes. i kept trying hard to hid it from Richard noticing, I turned but it was too late "Lucy are you crying?' "No Richard, something got into my eye and it caused th

Santiago's mansion Scarlett dished little Richard food and served it on the table covering it. She climbed the stairs walking to her room. She opened the door and saw little Richard battling with his trouser. She moved closer, bending to his level. " Is everything okay baby?". " The zip is stuck," he said with a frown. " Okay, let me fix that " she pulled down his trousers . He used his tiny hands to protect his dick like he was trying to protect it from danger. Scarlett stared at him feeling confused. " Is something wrong?" " I don't want you to see my nakedness" Scarlett looked at him , realizing he wasn't putting on boxers and smiled lightly. "Come baby, I'm your mom. I have you naked so many times " she smiled and stood up, heading to the wardrobe and pulled out a pair of boxers for him . " Put this on" she stretched the boxers. He collected it , staring at her . She squinted her eyes in confusion. " Ohhh" she mouthed, finally understanding what he meant. She closed her e
Richard walked into the company with a blank expression, ignoring every worker who greeted him . He got to the elevator and tapped the open button, the elevator opened and he walked in , tapping the ninth button. He brought out his phone going through the sales dashboard and a low growl erupted from his mouth. " With the rate of how the sales are decreasing, my company will be ruined within a month" he muttered while massaging his temple. The elevator door opened, he walked out and strode to the direction of his office. He entered and saw a lady in her office, her back facing him. " Who are you ?" He asked, she turned facing him and he recognized her to be Lucy , a smile appeared on his lips. He walked up to her engulfing her in a bone crushing hug, a short gasp escaped her mouth as she was finding it difficult to breath, she tried pushing him off but her effort was futile. " It's good you are back, i miss you so much". " Can you please release me or I'm gonna pass out" she shutte
Dave furrowed his eyebrows, he walked to the door as Lucy followed behind. He pushed the door revealing bianca.' What are you doing here ?' Lucy asked surprised but got no reply from bianca. bianca focus was on Dave .' Hello , I'm Bianca, nice to meet you.' she stretched forth her hand for a handshake.' I'm Dave ' he took her hand as he placed a short kiss on her palm.' I will be waiting for you pumpkin in my apartment, don't take too long ' he kissed Lucy's forehead, excusing himself.' Please come in ' Lucy moved out of the way for Bianca to come in. Bianca stood still as her gaze was still locked in the direction Dave went by . Lucy stared blankly at her face and frowned deeply as she wasn't getting a reaction from bianca.' Can you stop drooling and come in ' she dragged Bianca in.' I'm so sorry Lucy, i just got lost for a moment '' You mean , lost in his charm, ' Lucy replied sarcastically.' Why that tone? , you didn't tell me you had a cutie friend or wait!! She gasped , '
Scarlett walked out of the bathroom, her gaze was greeted by her phone on the table which kept buzzing with calls. She grabbed the phone, staring at the caller ID, she squinted her eyes, staring aggressively at the name shown on her phone screen." What does he want?" She hissed and hung up the phone . Her phone buzzed again indicating she had a message, she went through the message as a low growl erupted from her mouth. She walked to her closet, putting a black crazy jeans and a pink crop top. She wore a pink sandal, parking her hair in a messy bun. She grabbed her car key, phone and wallet , not applying make-up, she rushed out of the house .She couldn't keep calm on one feet , she was really nervous.' What game is he trying to play? ' she wondered as she drove at full speed .She arrived at the location sent to her message box , she walked out of the car, staring at the deserted area , the whole was silent, a person could be easily killed ." Of all places , why would he choose
I turned faking a smile.' Arrrgh!! What happened to you ?'' Hey Dave, how have you been ?'.' I'm good Lucy , what happened to you? Were you beaten up ?' he asked , his face full of concern.I smiled, I didn't want him to know what i was passing through, I don't want him to feel pity on me , that is the last thing i need right now .' I'm Good Dave, i fell on my way home , that's why I look this way' i said , hoping he wouldn't ask anymore questions.' Okay Lucy , I'm actually on my way to get groceries. Let's talk when i get back, ' he pecked my forehead and left. I sighed out of relief, i entered the house. The whole house was dusty, i felt so suffocated, the whole house was full of cobwebs. The place looked like it had been abandoned for years , it's not even been four month i left the house .I took my bag inside my bedroom. I wore my nose mask , getting ready to clean up.At Least it would help me get rid of Richard from my head for the meantime. I used the vacuum cleaner t
" Richard, you can't marry her, " Lucy said ,trying hard to hold back her tears . Scarlett looked at her, eyeing her maliciously.' Richard please think about this , there should be some other way out ' she held his hands , looking into her eyes .' What other way Lucy? .if I don't marry her , she will take my son away'.' Richard once you are done talking to her' she eyed Lucy . 'Please help me take my luggages inside , her sight irritates me ' she walked out holding little Richard. Lucy cared less about what Scarlett said , her only focus was Richard.Scarlett was finally out of sight, Lucy stared at Richard with a pleading eyes . He looked away not wanting to look into her eyes.He walked away from her , opening the car truck, he pulled out the luggages, closing the car truck.He dragged the luggages as he scurried to the front door . She ran after him, obstructing him from going further.' Lucy please leave the road, I need to take this to Scarlett ' he stared at the luggages.' R
Richard got to the company, heading straight to the boardroom, where the other shareholders were waiting for him . His workers greeted him to which he responded with a smile.Since he met Lucy , Richard has changed drastically, from being arrogant to a friendly boss, workers now felt free with him. He opened the door , staring at the angry faces of the shareholders.' Mr Santiago, what is this we are hearing? ' an elderly man in his sixties asked ,not waiting for Richard to take his seat.' Mr oboron, I know you all are angry and believe me I'm really shocked . Something like this has never happened before, ' richard replied.' Mr Santiago, how sure are we, you don't know a thing about it, or were you trying to sell cheap products to the people. Our sales board has decreased drastically due to this . People are complaining that the drink tastes like spoiled ege. If this continues, I will have no other choice but to take down my shares, ' one of the shareholders said.' Mr Martin,
Lucy arm trails around the bed in search of Richard but touches nothing. She opened her eyes looking around but got no glimpse of him. She stood from the bed , putting on only shirts which stopped at her thigh. She scurried out in search of him . She strolled the stairs, getting to the sitting room but no sign of Richard. The delicious smell of chicken and waffles filled her nose , making her tummy groan in hunger .' Hmmm, is Martha back? ' she wondered.She walked into the kitchen and met Richard cooking, his back facing her .A smile curved her lip as she watched Richard cook.' He looks hot in an apron,'' she smiled to herself. Richard wasn't aware of her presence.She wrapped her hands around his waist , hugging him tight to herself.' What are you doing here, you aren't supposed to be here . I wanted to surprise you ' he disengaged from the hug , now staring at her .' Ohhh, I'm sorry ' she replied.' I can actually go back and wait for you , I'm gonna pretend i didn't she this

' I don't think the plan is working, he isn't paying attention to her . From what i have seen , I think he is gonna take custody of the boy and send her out.' Okay you can leave, ' Mr Anonymous said .He put a call through Scarlett, it rang but no response, he called again and got an answer immediately.' This is a month already in the house, and I haven't gotten any good news, ' Mr Anonymous said calmly.'

Switch to plan b, I will take care of her ' he replied hanging up.THE NEXT MORNING.Lucy opened her eyes, she looked around but could not see Richard or little Richard around . She walked to the bathroom,
