Christian relaxed back into his swivel chair and replied to Ferdinand's message, texting back " Stop sending emails, I'm not interested".And then, he sent it and dropped his phone, concentrating back on what he was doing. ' You dare treat my woman anyhow and still want a collaboration? What a joke!', he said in his mind as he typed on the laptop.A few seconds later, his office door was pushed open and someone rushed in causing Christian to glare up at who the rude individual was." Surprise!!", the annoying voice of his younger brother shouted and laughed." What are you doing here?", he asked frowning," C'mon brother, don't ruin the moment, I was just passing by and decided it'd be rude to walk past the palace without greeting the king", he said as he took his seat before him. He was dressed in a white pant, a black T-shirt, a grey hoodie, and black sneakers. His hair was neatly combed, and he looked so well-kept, unlike his rough approach." You're not welcome", Christian said
Clinton walked briskly to where Clarisse was sitting. She was solely on her own, doing nothing with her hands placed on her lap, watching the doctors and the nurses run up and down as different patients kept trooping in with different issues. The trivial feeling of gratitude settled in her mind as she watched some patients and how they screamed in pain, she prayed and wished them a speedy recovery but soon she was reminded of the night her parents died, before the feelings settled in, Clinton's voice rescued her." Ma'am?", he called as he bowed slightly before her and she quickly stood up," Is she awake?", she asked," No, but she's fine, don't worry about her, I'll look after her, you should head home now"," No I'll just wait here, we can leave together"," Thank you and I'm sorry but you'll have to head before me as Master is waiting outside".Clarisse's heart skipped, " Mr Christian is here?"," Yes ma'am", he answered, " I'll take you to him", he said and led the way. She was n
" Go on a date with me", he repeated, her eyeballs were raised at him like he had completely gone crazy.A date? With him?Christian is the most unpredictable man, always leaving her speechless and confused.The only word that managed to escape her lips was," Why?"," I want to spend more time with my wife and get to know her more, any other reason there is supposed to be?", he said resumed eating.The rest of the dinner was silent, she was extremely careful while eating, making sure she didn't chew loud so as not to annoy him or make him feel comfortable and didn't eat too much as Patricia always made sure, she'd get beaten if she finished the meal in the plate and called thief if she chew too loud, she'd angrily pour the food away so being cautious while eaten has been inbuilt in her.After their meal, Christian stretched his hand towards her and requested for her phone number," Your pin", he said handing his phone to her but she didn't collect it," What do you mean?"," Your cell
She leaped in joy and excitement as she entered the room. She had to leave the maids on the veranda as she couldn't display her joy in their presence, and she couldn't contain the joy any longer. " Yes!!", she shouted the moment she got inside the room and laughed out loud, " mission accomplished", she said amidst laughter.She heard one of the maids gossiping and telling other maids about the chief maid and the master's wife rushing Blue to the hospital but she guessed the chief maid must have told her not to say a word about the master's wife being rushed to the hospital. The fact they are not back yet only means that it was Clarisse who was rushed to the hospital, and it means one thing: her plan worked." I pray she never returns," she said and giggled, " now, time to make my life a fairy tale like those in the novels, The Billionaire's Maid Romance," she suggested the title and laughed happily. The title was so pleasant to her ears that she started blushing hard." Time for plan
Sandra looked around the kitchen as she walked in majestically, she could see some maids cooking while some were tidying up. She cleared her throat attracting their attention but they soon looked away, concentrating back on what they were doing while she walked up to one of the maids who usually took the meal to the master along with the chief maid." Hey", she said as she got to where she was standing," Hi Sandra", the maid replied, " what are you doing here?"," Running some personal errands"," Personal errands?", she raised her brow." Ha ha, just kidding, I'm running some errands for the chief maid"," Oh, is he back?", " Not yet, but he'll be back soon"," Okay, so, what's the message?"," You don't have to serve master tonight, I'll do it"," What?!", The maid was surprised, she stopped drying the dishes and turned fully at Sandra. " Why do you want to do that? You have your own task", The maid asked sounding irritated, ' are you trying to take my job from me'." Yes I have
" Name it, anything you want", " I want.."," Hm?"," I want.",She got interrupted by the ringing tone of Christian's phone that rang just as she was about to say it. He reached out for his phone and looked at the screen to see the caller, Ryan, his best friend." Leave", he said to her," Sir? I can wait", she said not believing she was about to lose her lifelong opportunity but Christian looked at her with disdain written all over his face.Seeing the scorn look she knew she had to leave immediately and quickly bowed before rushing out of the room.She punched the air and screamed inaudibly as soon she closed the door behind her." What in the name of garbage has to call at that crucial time!!", she shouted inaudibly heading down the stairs. Words couldn't express how angry and frustrated she was even when she tried to calm herself that she still had a chance.Christian picked up the call rolling his eyes, " what?", he groaned," What's what? Did I call at the wrong time?", Ryan c
Walking into the room as quietly as possible, without making the tiniest sound as she tip-toed towards Clarisse who was sleeping soundly on the bed. She hovered above her slowly trying not to wake her up in the process and looked down at her, she looked so fragile and innocent but that only fueled the hatred and resentment in her heart. She held the hot kettle tighter by the handle and straightened up before pouring the extremely hot water down on her face. Clarisse sprung up screaming on top of her lung as the pain was extreme but Sandra didn't stop pouring her hot water and when the scream was getting louder, Sandra picked the pillow to..." Sandra!", a maid shouted her name causing her to jump." What? ", she shouted back in anger, " that startled me", " That's not my fault, you're the one that zoned off that you didn't even realize the water you're boiling is hot already", the maid said and eyed her before walking away.Sandra rolled her eyes wearily and switched off the light,
Twenty minutes later, Clarisse pulled her hand out of the cool water." Do you feel better?", he asked worriedly and she nodded," Hm"."Thank goodness", he said and took her back to the room that was now well tidied, the tiles had been mopped and the broken glass had been taken care of, same to Sandra. There was no longer anybody in the room when they came out of the bathroom.Gently like a baby, he sat her down and gave her pain reliever medicine which she took. He took the cup of water from her when she was done, and noticed she was avoiding his gaze." Are you okay?"," Yes, thank you. you", she replied," And I'm sorry, for startling you earlier", he said squatting before her and now their eyes met.After what happened earlier she thought she'd never look him in the eyes but when he squatted before her and their eyes met she couldn't look away, apart from his eyes being captivating, they held lots of emotions that drew her in. What she saw before she was a man who was worried abo
