SPYING ON THE BILLIONAIRE TWENTY EIGHT
That night, Adonis called Mary into his study and informed her that he would be going on a business trip. “Don’t worry, I would be back before you leave”.Mary wished she could tell him to his face that she did not care if he came back of if he decided to leave there forever. “You just have to take good care of my grandmother while I am away, and please do try to understand and bear with her, she is just an old lady”. Mary tried her best to maintain her cool and not to burst out as a result of the anger burning in her heart. “Is that all you have to say” Mary snapped. Adonis quickly raised his head in shock to look at her. “Because I need to get something done for your grandmother, we do not want her lashing out at me again do we?” She added as an after thought, after all he was aware of his grandmother’s over bearing attitude towards her. “It’s fine” he finally said with hoarse voice, “you can go attend to my grandmother”. Mary wondered why he was being so cool wit

Mary sat in the garden staring absent mindedly into space, remembering how she and Adonis had kissed there the other day. ‘That was the good old days’ a dry smile appeared on Mary’s face as she thought about her Emma had pushed her around after she had spilled her chicken soup and broken her ‘most expensive plate’ once again she was glad that she had just three days to spend with the over bearing old woman and her arrogant grandson. That night, Mary got as much sleep as she could get. Emma had told her earlier in the day that she wanted her room fumigated, and she wanted Mary to do it in her words, there were roaches all over the place and they disturb her sleep at night. Mary knew there were no roaches, what she did not know was if Emma had to lie about the roaches being in her room or she actually thought there were roaches there. Whatever it was, Mary knew she had to obey her boss. At least she was still her boss until the next three days. Mary woke up the next morning in

It was just a day to the day Mary was to leave, and she felt exhausted and tire already from Emma’s troubles. Emma had been nothing but mean and inconsiderate to her all the while and she would be more than glad to leave. She had served her coffee that morning but Emma had insisted that she wanted tea instead, Mary had to take the coffee back to the kitchen and made to start preparing Emma’s tea. She finished making the tea and took it to her room but she had already fallen asleep. After deliberating within Hersey for sometime, Mary decided to leave the tea on the bedside table. While she made her way to her room, she felt like she heard someone speak downstairs, it sounded like Adonis. He had so much gotten into her head that she even heard his voice every now and then. She paused when she heard the deep voice again, plus she could now perceive his scent. It was indeed him. Mary’s heart started to beat fast without control, it was as if she had lost all of her sense of

Mary stared at him open mouthed for sometime before opening the door wide enough and stepping aside for him to come in. “Did I disturb your sleep?” He looked around the room as he came in. “I was hardly even asleep” she said dryly. “Mary” he called softly. She turned around to face him. “Are you mad at me?” He queried coming close to her but she stepped aside immediately. “I have no idea what you are talking about” Mary said folding her hands. “Come on, you can’t keep acting do cold towards me”. “I’m not mad okay” she cut him off. “I’m just not feeling to well” she lied. “Oh! I see, I can see you are all set to leave” he said looking at her packed stuff. She nodded. “You are probably so excited to leave, at least you would be free from my grandmother’s troubles” he watched her face intently as he spoke. She shrugged her shoulders but did not give him any reply. “At least go out with me to night, let’s just spend this last night together before you leave, le

“Do you really have to leave” Mary finally raised her head to look at him, his blue eyes looked like it was glistening, and he had such an expression that she could not describe. She slowly nodded and bent her head to face her food again. Adonis lifted her head to look at his face by placing his index finger under her jaw. She got to look into his eyes but could not hold it up. She suddenly started coughing again. Adonis quickly stood up and rushed to her side. “I’m so sorry Mary”. He gently started rubbing her back in order to make her calm down, but his warm fingers running through her bare back seemed to have worsened things. Her whole body was suddenly on fire, she felt her skin tingle with every contact his hand makes with her bare skin. Mary’s breathing suddenly started to facilitate, her heart beat increased by a thousand times. “Are you okay” Adonis asked pulling out the chair beside her to sit close to her and looking straight into her eyes. Mary who

While Mary was trying to recover from the initial shock, Adonis suddenly took her thumb into his mouth and sucked on it for a brief moment. At that moment, Mary felt like she could not take it anymore, her eyes snapped shut and a moan forced it’s way out of her mouth against her will. Adonis lips curled up into a smirk as he eventually let go of her thumb and freed her from the torment of his warm tongue. Mary opened her eyes to look at him, he had a naughty smirk on his face, she immediately felt like he was tormenting her on purpose. In order to finalize his torment on her, Adonis brought her hand to his lips and kissed it. “Do you want to see a movie with me?” He finally asked. “Yes!” Mary screamed In excitement. She did not believe that Adonis would offer to watch a movie with her even though he had told her before that he did not like watching movies. “I have movie tickets saved from earlier” Mary wondered if he had planned this in advance, since he already had

Outside the hall, Mary finally let out a long breath that she did not realize she had been holding until then. It was bright outside the cinema, it was almost as if the moon was in a good mood that night, Mary thought her mood reflected on the moon because she herself was equally in a good mood. She was thrilled and overwhelmed by Adonis niceness that night. She wondered if he was being nice to her because she wanted to quit, as some sort of parting gift maybe. It was until when they got to the car that Mary noticed that Adonis was still holding her hand tenderly, but firmly. She noticed he did not want to let go even after opening the passengers door for her to get in. He suddenly turned her around while still holding her hand and stared into her eyes. Mary held her breath, while her heart beat faster as she looked into the deep blue eyes that now stared at her. His eyes glistened under the moonlight making him even more beautiful than she has ever imagine. “You are beaut

Mary laughed so hard at the joke Adonis told her, she had no idea that he was a good story teller, and a funny one at that. They had finished dancing and had both slumped on the seat in exhaustion, Adonis had just finished telling her a story about a blind drunkard. Mary found the story funny and they both laughed so hard at it. Soon enough, Adonis face changed back to its serious state. “Do you really have to go” he asked her again for the umpteenth time that night. Mary took a sip from her glass, holding it with her two hands and trying to avoid his gaze. “If I beg you to stay would you stay?” He asked again. ‘Beg?’ Mary thought to herself. How could such a powerful person talk about begging her. Mary bit her lips hard, something she often did whenever she was nervous. Adonis somehow found that sexy and inviting. He slowly reached out his hand and caressed her lower lip with his thumb. His was dazzled by how full and succulent it felt on his thumb. Adonis suddenly f

"Ahhhhh!" Mia screamed as she saw the ring on Mary's finger, this time around Mary did not try to stop her from screaming, she allowed her scream out her lungs even though everyone in the restaurant were now watching them. "You mean you are getting married to Adonis Scott? How could so much happen within such a short period?" Mia asked surprised. "Even I have no idea" Mary said with a smile as she looked at the ring in her finger. "I have no idea either". "Would you make me your chief bridesmaid?" Mia asked with a smile. "Of course Mary said" They talked happily about random things, and how beautiful Mary's wedding would be. Mary herself was anticipating the wedding, she could not wait to see how beautiful her wedding would be. They had already started preparations for the wedding, and it was even like a double celebration for Mary because Clay also got a big contract that would change the life of his company forever and make it known."What do you think about this?" Mia

Mary was taken aback by what she saw on the sky, she looked back at the object in her hand again, it was a ring, and it looked expensive. Mary felt like she was dreaming, this could be one of those her countless fantasies that she had always thought would never come to pass. She quickly looked back at Adonis and saw him walking towards her with a smile on his face. He got close to her and took the ring from her hand. "Will you marry me" he voiced out. Mary was perplexed beyond description, she could not believe what her ears were hearing. She slowly pinched herself to be sure she was not dreaming. Adonis laughed as he saw her pinch herself. "I guess I should help you do that" Adonis said and pinched her arm softly. "Ouch!" Mary exclaimed laughing. "Now tell me" Adonis said. "Will you marry me". "Yes!" Mary nodded excitedly, she could not control her excitement, Adonis himself could not control the smile that spread out on his face as he slid the ring into her finger.

"So how did you feel on that day after witnessing two murders? I know it must have been a traumatic event for you". Mary said. "It indeed was" Adonis answered, "especially the thoughts of loosing my mother on that day. But Emma was there for me to help me over come it, she never left my side". "That is the reason you love her so much, she deserves all the love you show to her". "Exactly....." Adonis said. "After she took me and fled that city, we were always going from one thatched house to the other, living from hand to mouth. Sometimes I would watch my grandmother beg in the streets in order to give make sure I had something to eat". Mary took his hand and squeezed it, she never would have believed that Adonis had gone through such hardship as a child. "Emma sacrificed a lot for me, she later started doing menial jobs so she was able to afford to pay for a small place in the outskirts of the city". "I guess that was where you met the neighbor who always caught you with

"So why did you still chose to keep me after you found out?" "Well..." He took another sip from his glass of wine while staring at her. "I kind of noticed you were making progress with my grandmother, so I choose to let you stay. Hoping you would see the good in me and forfeit your mission" Mary lowered her eyes, she felt even more ashamed of herself once again. "Do you want to know another reason I choose to let you stay at all cost?" Mary shook her head. "Well just like I told you the first day we had met, you are so lovely. You were lovely the first day I saw you, and you still are now" a smile broke out on his face. "It would only take a person with a stone heart not to fall in love with you". On hearing that, Mary immediately dropped the glass of wine she was about taking a sip from and looked up at him sharply. Did he mean that he was in love with her? "I guess you yourself did not have a heart at all, like you told me the first time we met* Mary said. "What do

Adonis stared at Mary opened mouthed and with wide eyes as she walked towards him, he knew he had asked her to wear something sexy, but this was so hot that it almost too his breath away. With every step she took towards him, his heart beat increased. Causing him to want to take her in his arms and kiss her all night long. A smile spread out on his lips as she walked towards him. "You look beautiful" he said to her as she approached him. He took her hand, gave it a gentle squeeze before he brought it to his lips and kissed it. Mary felt electrifying feelings all over her body as Adonis soft lips made contact with her hand. She bit her lips to prevent a moan from escaping from her mouth. "Shall we?" He asked as he took her hand. She nodded with a smile. Adonis opened the car door for her and gestured for her to get in, Mary got into the car. Adonis got in quickly besides her and helped her fix her seatbelts, even though he knew that she could do it herself, he still felt

Emma cleared her throat and continued her story. "Seeing what had happened and that someone had found out, I felt that we were no longer safe there, if the police found us out they could take me to jail, and then my Adonis would be left all alone on his own with mo body to take care of him. I did not want that for my grandson, so I took him with me and we fled the town. Once again I had to leave, but this time around with my grandson and not my daughter. We were not able to take anything wutg us, the only thing I was able to take out of that house was a picture of my Lauren, the same picture you have seen hanging there. Because the place had been a ghetto, there was no further investigation on the deaths, the police ruled it out as a clash between rival gangs. Mary still wanted to know why Adonis had tried to harm his grandmother. She asked the question aloud, directing it to Adonis. But Adonis stayed quiet, still staring at her. Emma answered the question instead. "Adonis nev

Mary looked up at Adonis again only to see him still looking at her. She noticed he had been quiet all along, she felt ashamed to look into his eyes now, she really felt ashamed of what she had done. Emma continued her explanation. "I finally thought that when I presented Adonis to Oscar, I thought that at least he would be happy that he finally had a child with Lauren and stop treating her bad. At first, he became lenient with us and started acting a bit maturely towards us. He would but gifts for Lauren and Adonis. But that did not last long, after quitewa while he resumed his maltreatment on us again. I watched Adonis grow up in the midst of all of these chaos, but I could not do anything about it, I had no power to change anything. I could not even take him away from there because we had no other place to go to. I did not want to return to the streets with my child and grandchild, that would not be good for them. So we stayed. Oscar never showed love to Adonis as a child" M

Mary and Emma were now sitting on the couch in the sitting room, while Adonis stood there with his hand in his pocket. Mary wondered what Emma meant by saying her grandson was not a murderer. But Adonis had openly admitted in the court that he had killed his parents. Adonis stood there and watched every reaction that appeared on Mary's face as they spoke. "Then why is everyone saying he killed his parents? Why was he arrested?" Mary was even more confused as ever. "You should see him as a hero instead of a murderer" Emma said. Mary looked up at Adonis only to meet his eyes. Mary kept rubbing Emma's arm as she spoke. "Tell me about Adonis parents then" Mary said. "Is the lovely woman in that picture hanging inside that room Adonis's mom?" Mary asked. Emma nodded. "My Lauren, my poor child. She suffered so much until death". Emma said with a sad look on face. "Is she your daughter?" Mary asked, she could not help but ask too many questions. "Yes" Emma said nodding. "S

Mary had her heart hung in her mouth, she swallowed hard having no idea how to handle the situation at hand. She was about challenging him and finally get to tell him to his face that he was a pathetic and and psychotic killer that would not mind harming his own grandmother just to cover up his mess. She was about about open up her mouth to cuss him when he pulled out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at them. Mary quickly pushed Emma behind her, but it seemed like she pushed too hard because the old woman ended up falling to the ground. Mary's mouth snapped shut as she looked at Adonis, all the curses she had originally planned to rain on him hung in her throat. "What are you trying to do?" He asked, his voice sounding more mean than it had sounded earlier. His eyes had gone blood shut, Mary feared that he had gone mad and would kill the both of them without thinking twice. Mary could not help but think if this was the same way Adonis had killed his parents, if this was th
