“Am I hallucinating, or did my brother really bring a woman home?” Rachael said dramatically as she hurried down the stairs.

“Oh my goodness! You are beautiful!” She clapped happily and pulled Lily for a hug.

“Stop it, Rachael. You’ll make her uncomfortable.” Tony sighed and tried pulling her hands off Lily, but she shot him a harsh glare and pushed him away.

“Hello, I’m Rachael, Tony’s sister. What’s your name?” She asked, smiling from ear to ear. Lily looked at Tony and then back at Rachael before clearing her throat.

“I’m Lily. Lily Arnold.” She answered, and Rachael hugged her tightly.

“Lovely to meet you, Lily. You have no idea how happy I am to see you.” Rachael confessed, beaming with joy.

“Believe me, we can all see, but she’s not that kind of friend, Rachael. Don’t get too excited.” Tony said, and Rachael’s expression saddened.

“What are you talking about?” She asked, and Lily smiled apologetically. It mmm

    After their lengthy conversation filled with tears from Lily’s side, Tony showed her to her room, which the maids had already prepared.“Get some rest, Lily. You need it. Come down whenever you feel hungry, and the maids will prepare something for you immediately, okay?” Tony held her arm and stood outside her room. He didn’t want to disturb her any further because he could see the tiredness in her eyes. She had been awake all night because of her shift, and since it was her first time, her body wasn’t used to it. The eye bags around her eyes were becoming prominent, and he could see her struggling to keep her eyes open.“Thank you for today, Dr Martinez. I am grateful for everything you’ve done today.” Lily said truthfully, and Tony slowly pulled her closer and kissed her forehead, taking her by surprise.“Go to bed, Lily. You can thank me when you wake up.” He said, and she chuckled before nodding and walking into the room. Tony helped her shut her door before leaving for his r

    “I haven’t slept that good in months. That’s why I slept for so long. It felt unreal to be able to sleep that good.” Lily confessed, smiling from ear to ear.“I’m glad you were able to sleep well, Lily,” Tony said and joined them at the dining table. “Looks like we’ll be having an early dinner.” He joked, and they all laughed. The food soon arrived, and Tony requested his share while Rachael decided to keep hers until later as she had just had lunch an hour ago. “I have to go and pick Daisy up now. I’ll see you when I return, Lily.” Rachael said and excused herself. As soon as she left, Lily turned to Tony.“Isn’t it too late to pick a child up from school?” Lily asked, and Tony chuckled lightly at her question.“Schools are on holiday, Lily. Daisy is at her grandparent’s house. She stays there during the day and returns in the evening.” Tony explained, and Lily’s mouth parted slightly as she nodded.“That makes more sense. I have more questions, but I think It’ll be better

    “I am not too busy for you, Lily,” Tony said as he stared into her big blue eyes. He meant every word he said and hoped Lily knew that. Lily’s heart raced as those words left Tony’s mouth. She could see the sincerity in his eyes as he spoke. She was about to give him a reply when they heard Rachael’s voice from downstairs. “Daisy’s home!” She screamed happily.Lily stepped away from Tony and smiled apologetically before meeting Rachael and her daughter.Tony shook his head and laughed as he saw her run off. He knew she used that as an excuse to avoid the awkward situation. Lily saw Rachael heading upstairs with a young girl who seemed to be around seven years old and hurried to meet them.Lily loved children more than anything. At the hospital, she always volunteered to care for the children’s ward because she got to spend time with them.“Hey, Lily!” Rachael squealed and giggled like a child. “I told Daisy about you, and she couldn’t wait to meet you.” She confessed, and Daisy no

    After breakfast, Rachael pulled Lily back into the room, telling Tony she needed to prepare for the outing. "Will you tell me where he's taking me?" Lily asked once they were in the room, and Rachael smiled apologetically. "I would if I had an idea but, my brother won't tell me. He knows I'll tell you if he does." Rachael replied and Lily pouted sadly. "Come on now. Let's not keep the man waiting." Rachael said, pushing her into the closet so she could get out of her clothes. When Lily returned to the room, Rachael had already laid up her makeup products on the dressing table. "No, no. Rachael, please. I'm not wearing makeup. It'll give him the wrong idea." Lily shook her head and chuckled awkwardly. "I'm just going to go with a light makeup, Lily. It's a 'No makeup' makeup." Rachael explained and begged with a smile. Lily sighed defeatedly and nodded. "Fine." She agreed, and Rachael immediately got to work. Since Lily was a beauty, she didn't have much to do on her fac

    Throughout the car ride, Lily kept her eyes focused on the road. She didn't want Tony to see how red her cheeks were.'I should have applied some foundation like Rachael suggested.' She thought and almost hissed out loud."Alright, Lily. This is our first stop." Tony announced as he pulled up in front of a boutique. Not just any Boutique, It was one of the most prominent boutiques in Paris, Dumont Couture, owned by a famous French man, Leon Dumont,Lily tilted her head to the side to view the building from the car, and her mouth dropped to the ground.Everyone in Paris knew Dumont Couture, but only a few had been inside. That was because they only sold expensive items, 'overly expensive' as Lily liked to call them."Come on, Lily. Let's go in." Tony said and helped her out of her seat. As they walked in, Lily wasn't surprised that he was well-known. She figured he was already a regular customer.Lily wanted to object to shopping at a place like this since there were cheaper opti

    Rachael was in the living room with her daughter, Daisy when she heard Tony’s car drive in. She checked her time and saw that it was still six in the evening. “Why are they back so early?” She wondered. Earlier in the day, Tony had let her know that he would be taking Lily to see a movie at night and even asked her for recommendations so, she was shocked to see that they had returned already. A few minutes later, the door opened and Lily walked in with Tony by her side. “Uncle Tony!” Daisy screamed and ran to welcome him with a hug while Rachael made her way towards them. As she neared them, she noticed that Lily’s countenance was down which was unlike her, especially after a date. She quietly walked to Lily’s side, held her hands, and led her upstairs to her room. Lily’s eyes were swollen like she had been crying and her body was tense. Worry immediately filled Rachael and she now wanted to know what had happened during the date. “What’s wrong, Lily? What happened?” Rachael

    Lily bit her lips nervously and pretended not to hear anything. She took out her work uniform from the locker and was about to go into the bathroom to change when one of them grabbed her hand and stopped her.“I don't know what Dr Martinez sees in you, to be honest. I can bet he's just messing with you since you are so cheap.” The same girl said, trying to get a response from Lily.“You can't even deny the accusations. They must be true then.” Another said and they all laughed.“Can I go now?” Lily said and pulled her hand away before walking away. She owed them no explanation and she wasn't going to entertain them either. She and Tony knew the truth and that was all that mattered.The nurses laughed at her behavior and walked away. They were convinced that she was being that way because of her relationship with the CEO.Lily changed into her uniform and went back to her desk, ignoring the glares from some of the other nurses. She lowered her head and impatiently waited for her shift

    "Not her, Man. She's off limits." Tony warned, throwing a harsh glare at his friend."Look, I understand that you said no sneaky activities at work so, I'll get to know her outside the hospital. That will be okay, right?" Raphael said with a grin and Tony rolled his eyes."No! Do that with someone else. Not Lily. She's off limits to you and every other person in this hospital." Tony replied and Raphael squinted his eyes at him. Then, it finally clicked in his head."Wait! Are you and Lily a thing? Is that why you are being like this?" Raphael asked, trying his best to not laugh.Tony was tongue-tied. He couldn't say they were a thing because they weren't but he wanted them to be a thing deep down. He knew he had no right to push other men away from her but he was still going to do it. Lily was his as far as he was concerned."Not yet." He came up with the most suitable reply he could find. Immediately he said it, Raphael's eyes widened and his jaw dropped to the ground."You lik

    TWO DAYS LATER It was a Monday morning and the break from the hospital had come to an end. Lily woke up feeling restless. Since the party, she had been unable to sleep properly as the events of the Mehdi’s party continued replaying in her head. All she seemed to think about was Louis's words. It had been haunting her like a ghost and no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t shake it off. What annoyed her was that she didn’t know what he planned to do. She didn’t have a single idea so, she was scared he would strike at any time. “Get yourself together, Lily!” She tapped her cheeks with her hands as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. “Don’t think about it. Please, don’t think about it.” She whispered as she brushed her hair into place. “Focus, Lily. Focus!” She said own last time before going into the bathroom to get ready for the day. By the time she got out of the bathroom, it was already a few minutes past eight and she was to be at the hospital by 9 am. She dressed u

    As the party continued, Tony mingled with some of the people he was familiar with. He also made sure that Lily was by his side at all times.“Who is this beautiful lady, Tony?” Various people asked and he gave them the same response which still came as a shock to all of them.As the conversation with some of Tony’s business partners got more intense, Lily decided to leave them for a bit.“I’ll be in the restroom for a bit.” She whispered to Tony who gave a brief nod. His eyes followed her until she disappeared, making sure no one followed her into the restroom.As she walked, she couldn’t help but admire the hallway that led to the restroom. It had been decorated beautifully with flowers as though it was a part of the party hall.Mehdi might be a terrible person but he had good taste.She entered the restroom and to her relief, it was empty. She washed her hands for some relief and leaned on the wall, hoping to give Tony and his friends some time to finish up their conversation.A few

    “She’s my girlfriend,” Tony announced with his arms wrapped around Lily and his expression stern. Lily’s eyes widened but she quickly composed herself as she didn’t want to be noticed by the reporters who were watching them like a hawk. After Tony’s big reveal, the reporters erupted into chaos and they began raining questions on Tony, each of them eager to know how and when he got a girlfriend because most of the people in the country were starting to think he was gay or just hated women. There was a time he was spotted in public with Daisy and photos started circulating online as people began to spread rumors about him having a child. They also went on the search for who the mystery woman might be and at that time, he was close friends with Harriet who already had two children and was always around him. So, to avoid getting her in trouble, he quickly denied the accusations and revealed that Daisy was his niece, bringing Rachael as proof. “How long have you known her for, Dr Martin

    “Oliver? What the fuck does he want with you?” Tony asked, his expression hardening as he saw the texts on Lily’s phone.“Oh, it’s nothing. He’s just checking up on me since he didn’t see me at work. I have been helping him out at the hospital.” Lily explained innocently.“Can I see?” Tony asked and Lily freely handed him her phone for him to go through their texts.As Tony read through the messages, he realized that Oliver had been keeping tabs on Lily without her knowing. He used normal questions that wouldn’t look fishy to keep track of her activities and Lily who was as naive as a child kept giving him the information he needed.“What’s wrong?” Lily asked when she saw the angry look on Tony’s face. She wondered what he had seen on her phone that made him angry.“This Oliver guy. I have a feeling that there’s more to him. You need to be careful around him.” Tony warned and Lily frowned, taking her phone and pocketing it.“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of him, Tony.” Lily sighed. “We

    Three Days Later.Lily rolled over to hit the snooze button on her phone as the alarm pierced through her sleep.“Five more minutes..” She hummed like a five-year-old.Just as she was about drifting off to sleep she suddenly remembered that she had to be at the hospital.“Shit!” She exclaimed and jumped off the bed. When she checked her phone, she saw that it was a few minutes past eight which meant that she had less than an hour to prepare for work.She quickly jumped into the shower and in a few minutes, she was out. Once she was all dressed up, she hurried downstairs to meet with Tony who was expected to be waiting for her.When she arrived at the living room, she found Tony sitting on a sofa with Rachael both laughing at a joke that was cracked by him.Sensing a presence behind, Tony turned and found Lily staring at them with curiosity written all over her face.“Good morning, Lily.” Tony greeted with a smile.“Morning, Tony. Morning, Rachael.” She greeted. “Why didn't you wake me

    Lily sat at her desk, going through the files for the patients she would be sending handling. When she finished, she grabbed her tools and headed to the pediatric ward.As she walked into the brightly colored room, she spotted a little girl who didn’t look anything above six seated on her bed with a stuffed bunny clutched to her chest.She had a beanie on her head to cover her baldness as she had lost most of her hair to cancer but despite her frail frame and the IV connected to her arm, her eyes sparkled with warmth and happiness.“Good morning, my darling.” Lily greeted with a warm smile as she approached her bedside. “How are you feeling today?” Lily asked, checking her temperature.The girl looked up and smiled brightly, her eyes shining with excitement. “I am okay, Nurse Lily. They served me my favorite today! Chocolate pudding!!” She squealed and Lily chuckled.“You like chocolate pudding more than your medicines, don’t you?” Lily asked, touching her cheeks playfully.“Yes!

    “This is about Lily, isn’t it?” Rachael asked with her brows raised. “Yes, it is.” Tony agreed, taking his hands up. “You know how she feels about you not speaking to her right?” He asked and Rachael’s expression shifted to sadness. “I’ll be honest with you, Tony. I think I was too harsh on her. I have been feeling this way for a while but I do not know how to apologize to her. I fear I might have hurt her badly. She avoids me these days and I can see fear in her eyes whenever we meet.” Racheal lamented with a pained expression. Tony let out a sigh of relief and a light smile. He was glad that Rachael was thinking that way. “All you have to do is let her know that you are not upset with her and you want things to return to how they were.” He said. “The good part is, you have the opportunity to do that today.” He smiled. Before he heard her speak, he was going to tell her what Lily’s surprise was and plead with her not to make Lily feel bad but now, he planned on letting Lily do he

    A smirk appeared on Tony’s face as he stared at the email from the office of Mehdi King. It seemed like God was on his side. The timing was perfect. Ever since he found out about him being the leader of the SNAKERS, he had wanted an opportunity to meet him and this had just been given to him on a platter of gold. He was going to take Lily as his plus one since it would be her first time attending an event with him by her side. To Tony, it was a way of announcing her to the world as his partner as well as preparing her for the life ahead. He quickly made his way upstairs and placed a light knock on Lily’s door. A few seconds later, she heard the door click and it opened to reveal Lily with a towel tied tightly around her chest. Her hair and some part of her body were slightly wet and he understood that she had just got out of the shower. Even though he had made a promise not to think of anything sexual around her, his eyes and body seemed to have a mind of their own. It was to

    “She is all by herself, boss. This is the perfect time to take her. Give us the order and consider it done.” One of the men said into the phone with his eyes still glued to Lily as she headed back to the hospital on foot.A sigh was heard from the line, a sign of hesitation from Louis and one of the men concluded that Louis wouldn’t be able to give the order since Lily was his ex-girlfriend. So, he gave a sign to the man who was on the call with him, telling him to go ahead with the initial plan regardless of what Louis instructs.“What is your conclusion, boss?” The man asked, hoping Louis would go ahead with the plan but, there was still hesitation from him so, they decided to end the call and kidnap Lily before she was completely out of sight.They left their hiding place and began approaching Lily but just as they were about to get close to her, Tony came out of nowhere and wrapped his hands around her, oblivious to what was about to happen.
