She had embarrassed me at my son's school and I was determined to not let it go, at least not without punishing her for it. But because of her behaviour at the office today, I was quite enraged and certain that I would never interact with her again. Since Sophie had a great likeness to my son's mother, I picked her as his nanny mostly because I did not want him to become overly aware of his mother's absence. Even though I had offered to marry her for reasons I could not explain, all I wanted was for her to be my son's babysitter and play the part of my wife when absolutely required.She did not appeal to me at all, and the fact that she looked like my wife just made me detest her more." Sophie exaggerates her own significance." I muttered as I grabbed my files as I was ready to leave the workplace. " She must be quite dumb to believe she
Chapter 12SOPHIE'S POVWHAT WOULD YOU HAVE MRS RUTHERFORD DO? " What's happening mum?" Selene inquired as she observed me struggling with the door and i looked away from the door for a second." It's nothing baby, I guess the key is stucked." I answered as I attempted to open the door again. Miss Lois laughed and her cunny chuckle stole my focus from the door."No home, no spouse, how bad can it get ahh?." She said as she pretended to be sad, as if she felt terrible for me, and after a moment, she burst out laughing.Though hurt, I made an effort to keep my feelings in check. "Well, my dear, I presume the landlord changed the locks; that is unfortunate." She added and it dawned on me instantly why the locks looked different."Oh," I exclaimed as I realised what had occurred. I groaned and carefully exited the door, heading to one end of the porch to collect my thoughts. I could not think of the best approach to handle the situation and now was the worst time for it. I sat on the p
Chapter 11KARL'S POVTHE MARRIAGE IS CANCELLED!!! " How on earth could she address me in that manner?"I questioned myself, irritated about the way I was treated as we drove back to the office with Dave. Claire, my ex-wife, had fired the nanny just before the divorce, and I could not trust anyone with my kid just yet. I took it upon myself to pick up and drop off Dave at school, making sure we had something to eat before we left, and made sure hehad enough money for lunch. I happened to meet Selene on my way to pick up Dave, and I thought it would be a good idea for the three of us to go grab ice cream." Dad, why was Selene mum yelling at you?" Davis questioned as he turned to face me. I was not in the mood, so I ended the conversation before it began."Davis, this is grownup business. Do not worry about it." I answered as I was not in the mood for Davis questioning." Sophie has to be dealt with." I murmured, and my driver turned to face me and inquired whether I was referring t
SOPHIE'S POV" What do you mean, her dad picked her up?" I yelled as I found out that my daughter was missing again. The class teacher slurred as she talked, which irked me. That morning, as I left, I made sure to give her the instruction to keep an eye on Selene and now no one knew where she was.Rather than meeting her at the entrance as usual, Selene was not there and I had to go to her class when I got there. I assumed she had been delayed, so I went to the classroom to check.When I arrived, there were no students in the classroom, but some were gathered outside the door. My thoughts raced to where she was, and I looked about but could not seem to find her."Excuse me; have you seen Selene?" I questioned Selene's classmate who was at the door still chatting with a few students around." Yes ma'am, she left with her dad after school dismissed." She answered, and I thanked her before asking her to go."What dad?" I murmured to myself as I approached the principal's office to file
Chapter 9 SELENE 'S POV Let's get Ice cream!!! When I arrived at school the next day with my mother, we walked straight to class, and she handed me over to my classroom teacher. After my previous incident, mum decided she would had enough of my drama and would bring me to school and collect me up every day after I closed even though it would be tough for her because she would have to come from work every day to pick me up and we would both head back to her office where I would wait until she closed before we went home together. She was determined not to allow me out of her sight for anything other than school. It would not be an easy approach, but I had no option because Mummy was scared of anything happening to me and had decided to keep a watch on me since my previous adventure. "Selene is naughty." I could hear some of my class mates whispering to the others as I stepped in. The news of my escapade had gone around school and almost everyone was talking about it. Xavier
Chapter 9SOPHIE'S POVLET ME GO!!!!" Mummy when is Uncle Karl coming?" Selene tapped up me up from my sleep that morning. It was morning and I almost overslept thanks to Selene. I tossed on the bed and finally woke up to the staring eyes of Selene waiting for me to answer her question." Emmmh He will come soon my love." I said to her as I got off from the bed to make breakfast and get ready for work. As I made breakfast I worried about Selene and her sudden fondness for Karl. I had decided on what to do to avoid the marriage but I couldn't bare to see my baby girl hurt. Selene was about the only thing that mattered in my life and I was willing to sacrifice my happiness for hers. We ate breakfast quietly and I tried as much as possible to ensure it stayed that way as I was not ready for Selene's questioning. "Mummy" Selene called out for me as we ate and I turned to answer her facing her." You should finish your food so you don't go late to school." I answered and I motioned fo
Chapter 7KARL'S POVI HAVE A WIFE ALREADY..As soon as I have instructions about the parcel to Ryan, I went directly to my office. I had to meet with Mr Micheal who I had been informed was waiting for me. My phone beeped as I entered the office, it was a message from the CEO of a company we were about to do business with too. I turned my gaze to my phone to check the message as I walked to where Mr Micheal was sitted." Hello Mr Karl." He stood up to greet me as soon as I entered the office. Even though Mr Michael appeared irritated that I had kept him waiting for so long, he faked a grin extended his hands to shake me as soon as I entered.I could not help it as I had forgotten I had a meeting with him and gone to attend to other things." This should be fine." I muttered inaudibly still engrossed with my phone. As soon as I was done I turned to face him, I guess he dropped his hand after a while as he noticed I was not paying attention to him. Athough Mr Micheal was family every on
Chapter 6Tick tock says the clock.Sophie's POVMy phone beeped as I stood up to open the door, but the knock persisted, so I decided to go see who was knocking. When I reached the door, I sighed heavily, praying it was not Karl. I needed sometime to figure out how to salvage the situation. I did not want to accept his proposal and that would hurt Selene since she was already quite fond of him.I needed a flawless cover story for why the marriage would fail, and I wanted him to be on my side to persuade Selene."How was I supposed to handle this?" the persistent knock on the door prompted me to ask myself this question. When I opened the door, I was surprised to see an unexpected visitor. It was a young man, too elegantly dressed to be a delivery man, carrying a package. It was a lot going on in one day, and I prayed for the best. I glanced at him, without concealing my concern about what he wanted. I looked at the parcel warily, wondering who it was for."Good day, ma'am, I was i
KARL POVPACK THIS!!!Walking out of Sophie's apartment, I marvelled at my good fortune. After learning more about her, and on Max's advise, I had gone looking for her. I pondered for a while before deciding it was the best strategy since I did not want the press to be all over me about the divorce, and I also needed a nanny for my four year-old son Davis, whom Claire had left me with.I came across a little girl who begged me to assist her get home. I had grown a liking for the little girl who was so adorable and hard to resist and on finding out who she was I took her home to meet her mother too."Who would have thought that the little girl who I met on the street and who had begged for my help was Sophie own daughter." I muttered aloud as I walked away, turning to gaze at the house again."Max's advice was not so horrible after all." I grumbled to myself as I walked to my car, my thoughts racing with how I had found out about Sophie. Max's unexpected suggestion eased my concerns ab
