Harley's POV

After giving this issue a second thought, I realize there is no need to blame Ann for calling aunt Kayla because of how long she has been indoor with her son.

It scares me, it makes me wonder what is wrong and if Antonio is fine.

Ann did the right thing by calling his mother because he hasn't been out of his room since last night, even though I was monitoring his movement and that of his daughter who cried to sleep.

I didn't sleep today too. I was wide awake but I have a feeling it has to do with my worry about my boss and his daughter.

    Harley's POVNot able to keep calm anymore about the whole issue, I told Ann I was coming and left the mansion for aunt Kayla's home, hoping she would be there.I feel there is something she isn't telling me and she doesn't want to say it when anyone is there. I want to go see her and find a way to help them out of this situation.I hate to see the people around me unhappy and in trouble. Antonio might not deserve this for all the things he has done to me but I have a forgiving spirit and I have forgiven him for everything and what he is yet to do to me.I believe he can't do worst than he has already done. And I will help him. Seeing him looking broken woke up something in me. A needy feeling. For me to stretch helping hands and wipe the frown off his face, then scrape away the sorrow gnawing his heart. The more I know about Antonio, the more I feel this way and also feel sorry for him.He has it all; riches yet he isn't the happy man that he ought to be. I, on the other hand, used

Quickly, I wash myself up and wrap my below with a towel before heading out of the bathroom.I take long strides towards the door and throw it open to reveal who I was expecting, Stanley.There is a smug smile on his face and I roll my eyes before turning back and leaving the door ajar for him to enter.He follows me in."Good evening, boss." He greets me politely but I am silent instead of replying.I am making an effort not to burst out and ask him by the door about what and who he found out. It will make me look stupid, especially with the amusement on Stanley's face. Sometimes, I wonder what he finds amusing.But one thing I like bout him is his professionalism and intelligence. He can be serious when he wants to.I sit on the white L-shape sofa after entering the living room beside my bedroom, waiting for him to sit across from me and tell me what he found out.Instead, he stands waiting f

I can't believe I drool over his ugly chest. He isn't hot. He is cold and ugly, I shouldn't be doing this.I almost stamp my feet on the floor of his bedroom in embarrassment but I can't because he suddenly twirls back fully dressed in his pajamas.My body goes still suddenly and I feel disappointed that I can no longer see his broad chest and muscular shoulder that I feel like trailing my hands on."Harley!" He thunders and I jerk upright."You said?" I question with an embarrassed look."What were you thinking?" He scolds me harshly, making me glad that he didn't notice I was practically drooling over him.I wonder what I would have done to myself if he had noticed

Before I can even pull off my office clothes, I hear a knock on the door.I left the office at noon because I couldn't concentrate again. My mind is just filled up with different things and different ideas. I was thinking of what Harley told me and how to imbue my own idea into hers.

She called to tell me she was sick yesterday and would be in the hospital for bed rest.Now I realize it all. She is scared too. She is not sick. The smiles and laughter weren't genuine. This

This time, I hope Antonio and I will have a quiet time to discuss and talk into the night before coming back home.I don't know why he is super excited about it too but I guess it is because this is going to be our first date alone.

Just this morning, he brought the dress on his way to work, reminding me about the date.It made me smile. And proud. Happy. Lucky.
