"Sir Darwin?"I was surprised to see Sir Darwin, my favorite teacher.I immediately got out of the taxi and called him. He looked at me and was obviously surprised to see me."Bailey ?!" he said in shock."Yes I am, your favorite student,Sir" I replied with a smile.I couldn't stop myself from hugging him. The taxi driver and Beth were shocked. I was really comfortable with him.He was the one who helped me when I didn't have money and I had a hard time buying equipment for my project. He also motivates me to work hard at school so that I can give my parents a good life.Sir Darwin is gay and he is old but never married. I feel like he also missed me because he also hugged me tightly."How are you? Are you in college now? "he asked me.I couldn't answer him right away because I knew he would be disappointed when he found out about my situation. But he could see the sadness on my face so he noticed it. Sir Darwin knew my behavior so he knew I had a problem or I was sad."Get inside my ca
I just closed my eyes out of fear but when I opened it again I didn't see Sir Elijah anymore. Beth tapped me on the shoulder and told me that Sir Elijah had left. I felt better and took a deep breath."Thank God, I thought Sir Elijah would catch us," I said to Beth with a smile."Yes, come on. Let's get out of here,"she said while pulling my hand.It's like we're crazy people running out of the mall and looking around everywhere because our boss might see us. I was holding my chest as I was going to run out of breath."Stop it Beth! We are like thieves running here. Maybe the guard will catch us, "I told her."I don't think we will see Sir Elijah, why is he here? I thought he was on a business trip? "Beth asked curiously."Maybe he hasn't left yet, maybe his flight will be later,"I replied."Let's go home," Beth said and we left the Mall.We hailed a taxi and rode home to the mansion. I was happy because somehow I was happy to be with Sir Darwin and enjoyed the walk in the Mall. I als
"What happened ?!" he said and immediately took my hand. He immediately took his handkerchief from his pocket and covered my wound while I was stunned while looking at him. I did not expect him to do this to me."Why aren't you careful ?! No matter how stupid you are! "he said angrily to me.I just stared at him at those times as if I heard nothing.I didn't care about what he said anymore because the thrill dominated me more at those times. His face looked at me seriously as he tied his handkerchief over my wound.Suddenly Beth came and she immediately ordered her to get First aid. Beth quickly took first aid and gave it to Sir Elijah. She was also confused while I was just floating while staring at Sir Elijah's very handsome face."Does it still hurt?"he asked me seriously. "Bailey!" he said in a high tone.I was shocked and very ashamed of him. I got my hand from him and thanked him. "It's okay, Sir. Thank you very much" I told him with a smile."Did you get injured when you cut
"Bailey... !!" Sir Elijah shouted.I could not move from where I was standing when I saw Sir Elijah soaking wet.I almost shivered with nervousness when I saw his serious and angry face staring at me."How stupid you are !," he scolded."S..Sir I didn't know you were here. I can't see the back of the plants because I'm just a small woman.I'm really sorry," I apologized to him while bowing.He took a deep breath that obviously suppressed his anger. I didn't know what to do at those times. I wanted to immerse myself in a drum of water. He walked straight back to the mansion and left me alone in the Garden.I just want to hate myself because I always give him a headache. I keep telling myself that I will avoid him and I will move on with him but I can't. I thought of following him to apologize again so I did it because I didn't mean to.I hurried up the stairs to his room. I also stood outside for a few minutes thinking about what to say. I repeatedly practiced what I was going to say.I bre
"Didn't I say it's forbidden to use the phone during work hours ?!" he said emphatically.I immediately turned to him to apologize and explain. But he was stubborn to accept my explanation."Sir, I'm really sorry. My mother called and that's really important. I'm really sorry,Sir" I apologized to him."Stop saying sorry! It's Annoying, Bailey!", he scolded."I really don't want you to be mad at me so I apologize. I just can't help but answer his call because I have a lot of respect for my mother," I replied."And you have no respect for me? Is that so ?!" he asked emphatically."It's not like that, Sir '' I insisted."Stop acting like stupid because next time you do that, I will fire you!"he scolded and walked to his car and left.I couldn't help but cry at those times but I immediately wiped away my tears and went inside the mansion. Once I thought of putting a spell on his food so that the day would come when he would be submissive to me.I just laughed at how I felt.He was so incons
"Madam Darlene?" Beth and I said with a smile.Sir Elijah immediately met and hugged her. She looked at us smiling and I heard Sir Elijah ask her why she came here so suddenly."Why didn't you even say you were coming?" Sir Elijah asked her."I just want to surprise you and honestly because i broke up with my boyfriend but it's okay you're here my Eli,i can count on you my handsome cousin" Madam Darlene replied with a smile."ohhh, do you mean that you want to stay here?" Sir Elijah asked her."Isn't it obvious? I have my luggage Eli, don't you see? "Madam Darlene said ,smiling.Madam Darlene looked at us and approached us with a smile. We greeted her immediately and her smile was sweet as she faced us."How are you two?"she asked us with a smile."We're okay madam,how about you?" Beth asked."Well, broken hearted but it's okay. There's my cousin Eli, I'll be itchy,"she replied with a smile.Beth and I smiled at what Madam darlene said and I couldn't help but look at Sir Elijah who wa
He immediately turned his face away from me so I was embarrassed. Why did I assume that he would kiss me? I felt so ashamed that I closed my eyes and waited for him to kiss me."Tell me what Darlene told you,"he told me seriously."I already told you that she really didn't tell me anything other than helping to fix the room," I replied to him."I know my cousin's behavior and I know you are lying to me.You gossiped about me, didn't you?"he asked emphatically and I was surprised by that question."You're wrong, Sir. That's not my habit," I replied to him."You're still cleaning!"he said angrily to me. I sighed at what he said.I was used to Sir Elijah's behavior so I just ignored it. But he spoke again and he hurt me even more."You're not just a fool but you're also a liar," he told me emphatically."Get out of my sight," he told me seriously. I couldn't help but leave because I knew she was very angry with me at those times.I can't tell the truth that Ma'am Darlene and I talked abo
Fortunately, she quickly turned the steering wheel. We looked at each other and I couldn't imagine the nervousness I felt at those times. But Madam Darlene just smiled as if nothing had happened to her."Calm down, everything is fine"she said smiling and I tried to smile at her.When we arrived in front of the mall,she got off the phone first and I followed. We entered the mall at the same time and the two guards looked at us, especially at me.My God! why did I think of wearing it? "Just be yourself, Bailey,"she said with a smile.We entered a Hair Salon and we were greeted by a fat gay with ash gray hair. He smiled to greet us and approached the two of us."What can I do for you, Madam?" The gay man asked with a smile."Fix our hair and make it perfect," Madam Darlene said with a smile."Sure Madam, come on," the gay man replied with a smile.Madam Darlene and I sat in front of the large mirror and she looked at me for a moment and smiled."Just relax, Bailey" she said to me with a
Her heart skipped a beat as she caught sight of Elijah. The happiness that surged through him was palpable, but little did she know that Elijah felt the complete opposite. In his mind, it was too late to mend their broken family, as he believed Bailey had reconciled with her ex-boyfriend, John. Frustration consumed him, causing him to toss the flower he had brought aside before stepping inside."Elijah?" John exclaimed, his voice filled with disbelief."Daddy!" the young boy exclaimed, rushing towards him."It's been a month since you left and came back to Canada. Why are you here? Is it another business trip?" Bailey asked, her words stumbling over each other."Uhmm, yeah. I just happened to pass by and thought of visiting. I missed him too much," he lied.Just then, John's phone rang, interrupting their conversation. It was his girlfriend calling. With a quick goodbye, John left, leaving Elijah surprised to learn about his father's new relationship. Their eyes met, and John smiled a
BAILEY'S POINT OF VIEW"I love you, Bailey." Time slowed down and I was surprised by the eyes looking at me. Brown eyes and thick eyebrows that are about to meet, it's like his eyes are absorbing me and don't want to let go."What?!" I asked him in disbelief.What is happening? he likes me?"I'm your admirer since the day I found you," Anthony answered me."You love me?!" It's hard to ask him while he still can't believe it. I asked him one more time and he nodded again.He still didn't deny it to me.I can't believe that he has become even more direct now.My eyes widened when I knew and my two eyes could see how serious he was while looking at me. His lips parted and let out a small smile."I want to be your boyfriend..." he stated while smiling and I saw his cheeks turn red.I couldn't answer him, and while looking at him, I couldn't think of how handsome Anthony was in front of me while his cheeks were red. But while I still can't get out of my mind what he said."I'm not ready fo
I put my bath towel on my shoulder and answered the call."Hello? Camilla? Am I interrupting you?" he immediately asked me."I didn't just finish talking to Andrea, what's wrong?" I answered Anthony on the other line."Can I talk to you for a moment? I'm sorry but could you come here? I'll text you the address and the name of the restaurant." he answered me.I was wondering because I have to go to where he is now, is there something ready?"Alright wait for me there in a few minutes," I answered him.He thanked me and hung up.I took a quick bath and get dressed also I quickly go to the restaurant he texted me. Wondering what he wants us to talk to that it will be in a restaurant. The taxi stopped in front of the restaurant and the first time I look at it, I knew that it will be an expensive one.From the transparent window, I saw Anthony waving at me, however, he wasn't alone. I saw another man next to him and smile politely.I took a deep breath and enter the restaurant.I knew I wa
I no longer struggle and it seems my body gives up. I let Anthony do what he did. It somehow reduces the weight I feel that I hide every night.My eyelids were slowly getting heavy and I didn't realize that I was asleep after Anthony stayed with me for a few hours.That I woke up early and came down with my hair tied in a messy bun while I was wearing only a loose t-shirt and short shorts.I yawned thinking my eyes were puffy from all that crying.When I went down the stairs and I was about to go to the kitchen, I stopped when I saw Anthony at the dining table while putting plates on the table.My face heated up thinking about what I did yesterday night.... So embarrassing, I can smell the dishes on the table. I can see his hair is still wet.Did he take a bath huh? He did all this work when he could just possibly ask the maids to take care of handling the plates. He is well dressed in the morning. "Anthony?" Anthony is strong. He quickly turned in my direction while holding a plate
He smile at me softly when two deep dimples in his cheeks showed. "Good afternoon Ma'am Camilla, I was waiting for you." a soft voice with a charm in it. The handsome young man in front of me. I admit that he is quite charming however I am confused. "I see that you are confused Ma'am, I am Anthony the caretaker of this mansion!" He added and looked at me straight in the eyes. I notice that this man had two brown pairs of eyes and long lashes. He lead me inside the mansion and I was fascinated by how gorgeous the mansion is." Sir Anthony.... " I called his name stopping my two feet. He stop and looked at me. "Ohh Ma'am Camilla, Sir is too formal. Just call me Anthony," he answered.Is he the one who help me to get home?Who is he?I cough, clearing my voice."Okay, Anthony!" I replied.I pressed my two palms to each other stamping my feet on the floor. I gather all my courage and smile at Anthony."Thank you so much Anthony for helping me," I added.I blinked twice when he didn't a

Doctors and nurses were trying to revive his father’s life. I was shocked and I can’t move and just cover up my mouth while crying at those times.I can’t believe it's happening and I can accept it. I know it was just a dream. It’s impossible to happen.But I saw the doctor shaking his head while facing his nurses.I looked at my mother-in-law who was crying and shouting in pain.I immediately hugged her so tight while crying.“I’m sorry, Mrs. Crosby. We did everything to save your husband’s life. But we have nothing to do anymore, “he said sadly.Suddenly my mother-in-law lose consciousness and fortunately, I catch her. They bring her to the other room and I really don’t know what to do. My mind was totally confused and shocked.I saw Ransom still hugging his father’s lifeless body while crying.I can’t help but cry while remembering all the kindness his father showed me.“Dad, please wake up. Please don’t leave me, “he begged while his tears fell from his eyes.“R..Ransom your mom,”
I witnessed something that I couldn't believe that it's happening, I can see how the guest applause for Ransom announcement to my child and he really did introduce my child?Did he really introduce Yumi as a billionaire child?I felt my stomach swirl and butterflies in my stomach. I can hear the guest cheering for Ransom and yelling baby Yumi's name.This isn't a dream right? I hope I'm not dreaming.Later on my name was called by Ransom father, I was surprised again that I saw a photographer in front and them waiting for me to join them. I'm standing next to Ransom him carrying Yumi and his parents behind us. "Smile Camilla..." I heard Ransom voice. I glance at him, checking if I was right and yet he wasn't paying attention to me. I ignore it when I saw him smiling. "One...two..." the photographer count and the camera shutter, the flash lit up and I smiled at the camera. We take a lot of pictures together and including baby Yumi. I was happy for taking family pictures with them.
BAILEY POVI was surprised to see him and we both stared at each other. This time his stares at me were so very different.He quickly went up the stairs to our room and I followed him. I wanted to explain to him and tell him that we were not gossiping about him. I called his name several times. But he did not listen to me until we both entered inside the room"Ransom!" I called his name again.He immediately faced me and frowned when he looked into my eyes. This man's behavior is really bad."What?!" he asked with a frown."If you think we are gossiping about you, you are wrong," I replied firmly."You don't need to explain," he said sparingly.I just sighed at what she said and he didn't speak anymore. He went straight to the Veranda and I just shook my head at what he did. I didn't really understand that man's attitude. But even so, I just let him go.I don't want to push myself because it's tiring that we always fight.I sat on the sofa and closed my eyes. I didn't realize that I fe
