ALEXA'S POV "I didn't know you were home," Mr.Brown walks in the living room and looks between me and Nolan."Well, sir, I was thinking of spending my day-off here as my brother is out of town..." He gives a nod before speaking again,"I don't have my employees coming here to spend their day-off as I don't intend the mansion to be a vacantion house," Mr. Brown chuckles making me flustered."But I would like to ask if you'd like to join us out?" Mr.Brown asks, looking at Nolan knowingly."I'm going to pass on that, father... I am actually quite tired." Before Mr.Brown could even reply from his protest, Nolan walks off without another word.Mr.Brown turns to smile softly at me."I apologize on behalf of him, I'll leave him be, I just wanted to check if he's alright." I said apologetically with a small sigh and shake of my head.Mr. Brown gives me a tight nod before going clearing his throat."Then that leaves the two of us," I blush at the thought and opened my mouth to talk."Like a
ALEXA'S POV As we walked side by side through the halls to the next room, my mind is in panic on what to tell Anthony. I feel as though he already knows, but it's best to lie for now. If he already kmows the truth,then surely he isn't going to let a thief work for him.Mr.Brown seemed to sense my nervousness as he gently wrapped his arm around my arm, pulling me closer to his side. He wasn't taking advantage of the fact that I'm naked under a towel, I feel relieved knowing he wouldn't do anything to hurt me. "What are you thinking about?" He whispered in my ear, making goosebumps erupt all over my body. "Um nothing important..." I lied, attempting to act casual despite my shaky hands, and shaking knees.The corner of his mouth turned up at my attempt at sounding unconvincing."If you say so..." his smile slowly disappeared, as we continued off to the hotspring. I didn't bother opening my legs once we reached the hot springs, letting out a moan as the water surrounded me. I closed
ANTHONY'S POV They begin to apply lotions and body treatments on Alexa and massage her shoulders before taking out her hair clips. The whole time they both chat away at each other, Alexa occasionally responding with a small response while nodding her head. As soon as the female spa worker finished applying the lotion to Alexa, she left."So you like the spa, Miss? We haven't started yet!" The staff exclaimed excitedly."Yes, it's pretty nice. Thank you..." she replies as she stares at the door the spa staff had exited through, she was looking at the direction which the staff had exited through."Now for your massage, you have been complaining for quite awhile and I decided I needed to give you a massage since you are being so stiff during the massage. So relax! We're not hurting you!" The lady said enthusiastically as she begins to apply moisturising oil onto Alexa's hands before massaging them gently.Alexa closes her eyes as her face relaxed. She seemed to enjoy the massage and en
ALEXA'S POV Relieved as we were parked in his garage, we both walked out of the car and got inside the mansion. I thought for a moment he actually knew about Cody's plans, it turns out he had me investigated. I am hoping he wont do anything to have my ass on the line, god knows how he will react if he finds out? Walking inside the living room, I stop in my tracks to find Nolan waiting by the sofa. I slip out my phone to find it had already been pass 4 am . "Nolan, what are you doing up at 4 am?""Don't fucking play dumb with me, slut!" Nolan yells, Mr.Brown came walking up behind me and was surprised to find Nolan at the living room."Care to explain why it took you up till 4 am to get home?" "Nolan, stop playing game-" " You are threatening me to stay at home. To hiring a body guard if I don't keep myself locked up in this cage!" Nolan screamed, I was frightened to say the least."Nolan, stop acting like this-" I tried to speak but Nolan threw a pillow at me."Did I tell you to
ALEXA'S POV After packing the lunch in a small container, I carefully put it inside an insulated bag. My heart skipped a bit as I reread the message he sent, "Make me some lucn for the two of us. See you later." I felt a wave of heat rush on my cheeks as I thought of his voice saying those words. Shaling my head to focus, I zip up the bag and went outside when the driver was waiting for me. As I got into the backseat with my food, a few drops of perspiration started trailing down my brow and neck, which made me shiver in disgust. My hands shook and my stomach felt queasy. Even though they were covered with gloves, I wiped them off on my pants and then rubbed the sweat away with my shirt. I looked over at the driver, who was looking straight forward, pretending to not notice me wiping sweat off my face. My heart sped up even more as fear took hold of me. The thought of having to talk to him after our argument made my heart race faster. What if he hated me or tried to kick me out bec
ALEXA'S POV "Would it be alright if you spend your day with me?" I stood there confused as he asked me."My son is out on a date with his girlfriend after classes, so you're left with nothing to do at home, correct?" I nodded in response to his question. "Then I don't mind taking you out. You won't have to stay longer than a couple hours. It will make me happy to have your company around me." He continued walking while he had his hands in his pocket as he makes his way to his desk where his keys were, but my feet seemed glued to the ground as I stared at the back of his gray suit.My gaze slowly followed his movement, trying to calm the rapid beating of my heart. Why was I being asked out by someone I don't know, someone who hates me no less? Why didn't Nolan come along with him? I'm starting to wonder if it's even worth it to try to explain things. Is it really a good idea to let myself be around Mr.Brown after what Nolan said?I was shocked and speechless. I looked up at Mr.Brown
ALEXA'S POV "Sir, why did you ask me out on a date?" I asked as we both sat at the back of his car's trunk. The door had been liften up so in case it rained it would prevent us from getting wet. "Why wouldn't I?" He glanced back at me before giving me another smile.Did he already forget?"I'm not saying I'm complaining, but isn't that a little sudden?" My words came out more bluntly than I meant it too."You should never rush these things, Alexa. Don't ever doubt yourself or how wonderful the people around you are. Trust me when I say that, I've met my fair share of people who never understand love or kindness.""How old did you grow up?" I inquired further."Nineteen years old, Alexa,"This man, Mr.Brown, had grown up a very mature person despite his age. He had a hard life, yet he seemed to have found peace.Maybe having Nolan early in his life blessing in disguise. Maybe that was the reason for his happiness and acceptance.I shook off all thoughts and focused on my surroundi
ALEXA'S POV It's been days since I've been ignoring Mr.Brown because of the date a few days ago. I knew it was only a dream, but I cant bare to face why he would ask me out of all the woman he have met in his life. Preparing inside the kitchen I jumped at the sound of Sam calling me."Hey, Mr.Brown wants you in his office, are you okay?" Sam spoke with concern laced in her voice.She knows the real reason since I told her what had happened and asked her to swear she won't tell a soul. We've talked about it after the date and ever since then she comes up to me to check if Icwas alright. She might not know about Cody but she knows the problem that might rise between us and she knows I would feel guilty over it. "Alexa, what happened?""Sorry Sam just tell Mr.Brown I'm busy!"I ran outside to the garden and straight to the shed until I heard Nolan's intercom voice blessing me with freedom. I would much rather take up my time taking care of Nolan than spending time with Mr. Brown. I ne
