“Awe don't you want to sleep over Auntie?”Zoe asks, hugging the poor old lady from behind.“ I’m a bit too old for that and I can't sleep if it's not my bed Zoe.” She replied gently, patting my best friend's arm.“ Granny, I promised to visit you on the weekend after I start my school.” Alexander lifted his cute little pinky finger as a sign of his promise. Auntie Lilian was delighted to hear it and sealed their promise. “ I will bake your favorite carrot cake if you come over.” Alexander clap his hand while jumping in joy.“ Well, I didn't know that carrot cake is your favorite son. Don't hesitate to tell Dad what you like and we can ask the chef to make it.” Clyde butt in placing his arm casually on my shoulder. I wanted to shrug it off if not for my Auntie.“ It’s ok, Daddy, I like the way Aunty Granny makes my carrot cake, I think no one can make it like she does.” “ Silly Child, There’s nothing special about the carrot cake.” My Aunt patted my son's head.“ No, Granny yours is t
The first thing I feel when I open my eyes is the cloth that is brushing on my skin. It wasn't cold nor warm and it was quite soothing. I saw Clyde wiping my arms and hand. It was so delicate that it made me feel like he was wiping a precious treasure he didn't want to scratch.“ You awake kitten?” He asked, glancing at me. Damn, I wonder if he has six senses. I swear I didn't even move. I just open my eyes and just like that, he knows I'm awake. I sat up on the bed but felt a throbbing pain in my head and my surroundings were still spinning. “ Damn it!” I curse while pressing my temple.“ Here, drink some water. It will help subside the effects of the alcohol. You're not a drinker then and now but you drink those tequila shots like water, You almost made my heart stop when you lost consciousness.” He scolded me. I could sense he was trying his best not to lash out at me but his face was darker and gloomy. It made me want to kiss his forehead to ease those creases between his brows.
I woke up with a severe headache, last night was—Aw, damn it! Flashback of drinking all those Tequila and taunting Clyde that backfired on me! Gosh! I blush remembering what Clyde did to me and I felt all the blood run through my head. I might get a nosebleed. Glancing on the bed I saw the damn brute was still sleeping peacefully. My hand grabbed a pillow but before I could smack him with it. Clyde opened his eyes with a smirk etched on his lips.“ You're not planning on hitting me with that thing on your hand, Right kitten?” His bedroom voice made my heart skip a beat and when our eyes met I could see the mischievousness in his eyes. He's having fun teasing me.“ Sorry, you guessed it wrong,” I said and the hand holding the pillow went straight to Clyde's face. Only it didn't hit him and things backfired on me again. He swiftly caught the pillow and threw it away then he straddled me. He gripped both of my hands on top of my head, Hopeless I grunted and tried to kick him where the s
The entertainment area is located on the second floor, There you can watch like you would in the cinema. There's a fitness room that is also filled with a bunch of gadgets and things for exercise.After a minute the elevator door went open. I quickly head outside and walk straight to Clyde's office room. I knock twice before twisting the door knob. The first thing I saw when I opened the door was Clyde's serious face with eyeglasses on his eyes. He looks extremely eye candy. He looked too busy with his computer, his table was a mess with a lot of folders and paper on top of it. " What can I help you little kitten? " He asked without glancing at me.He was so engrossed with his work that I was already hesitant to tell him about the incident with Ms Charlotte. Maybe I can tackle this on my own." Nothing, I just want to tell you that we're going to school in half an hour, in case you won't see us downstairs.." I informed him, He quickly glanced at me, his deep brown eyes lingered on my
The night before our son started his first day in the new school Clyde enrolled him. He gave me a watch, he said to give it to Alexander when he goes to school tomorrow. Clyde explained the use of the watch, it has a gps. Our son can press an emergency call and it will connect to me or to his dad. It has an automatic voice recorder once he pressed the emergency call. The watch looked normal to the naked eye but its technology was more advanced than any expensive watch. Before we stepped out of the Mercedes car I placed it on my son’s wrist while I explained to him what to press to activate the call. I also recorded a command voice that Alexander can use in case he cant activate it using his hand. Now that it was all fixed we decided to head to the main building where the kindergarten was. A teacher came to me to inquire of my son’s name and then we were placed in the room together with a few kids. I heard from the parents whispering about a test to determine the child's capability an
I heard a few ladies come to greet the rude woman. I was ten steps away from them when I heard a familiar voice call my name." Hey ! Alexandria Morgan is that you? " I gulp hearing that familiar voice from my past.Oh for God's sake?! This can't be that woman? I silently prayed it was not her but sadly my hypothesis was right when I turned around to face them. I saw four ladies standing In front of me. They were all wearing skimpy clothes which is normally not appropriate in school. I'm questioning now how these ladies are allowed to come to school wearing revealing clothes like they are flaunting their assets. They are not a good example of adult people for the children here. What surprised me the most is seeing Nicole Brice together with these ladies. I saw her walk slyly towards me with a smirk on her lips while scanning me from head to toe."So it is really you, Alexandria, how are you? " She asked, faking a concerned question." Hi Nicole, yes it's me. I'm fine, thanks for asking
I was tempted to tell him about what happened to me but I know too that he had a lot of things to take care of in his business. So I decided to keep it inside. I don't want to add a burden by telling the incident this morning with those ladies. I brush his hands away and walk out of the closet room. He quickly followed me, stopping me from going out of the room.“Are you really going to walk out of our room without wearing pants, What’s up? You know you can always tell me if there's something bothering you, Kitten.” Oh gosh, luckily Clyde stopped me or else how am i going to face the servants of this house if they see me walking without proper clothing?! I pushed his hand off and rushed back to the ensuite closet and wore the short I was about to wear before the damn brute interrupted me. Satisfied with how I look in the built-in mirror, I walk out of the closet just to be trapped again in those iron grip arms." Damn it Clyde! What's up with you today? Your hands are always glued to
Damn it! I don't know how long I can fight this feeling I have for him and he's testing my limitations. Tempting me every time he has a chance. It's like he knows me far too well than my own self! I think he figured out my barrier isn't that strong enough and at any moment. If he pushes me further it will crumble and finally collapse. " Nope, Not a chance kitten, unless you tell me what's really bothering you." He said in a very serious tone. Still not giving up, I don't know what makes him so obsessed with this matter. Curse you, Clyde! I felt his strong arm wrap around my waist tighten once again, closing any space that was left between us. I know he was doing it on purpose to make me speak but my lips remain sealed. So he took it to the next level. My hand that was laying on top of his chest pushing him away, finally gave in. I'm no match for his strength. I gasped when I felt his cold lips on the crook of my neck. It was chilling and electrifying. I quivered involuntarily when
I turned my body to the side, using my other arm as a support for my head while my other hand lifted to spread to the side some of Clyde’s hair that's covering his forehead. Upon closer look it seems like Clyde had more fine lines in his forehead and in between his brows. I can even imagine how he looked when I was kidnapped and thought I was drawn when I fell in the sea. I bit my lips because I felt like crying. “ Hi, My Sneaky Clyde.” I pause and place my palm on his cheeks that have growing stubble. “ Can you feel my warmth? I hope so. You know, I miss you so much. It felt like we’ve been apart more than the years I haven’t seen you. It’s probably because I love you. That's why not seeing each other even for a few days seems like decades to me.” I took my mask off and planted a kiss on Clyde’s lips. Then I took his left arm and gently placed it on my belly.“ I have good news for you Clyde, remember when you talk about having a football team? Well, congratulations because we’re
“ We will also head out so Mom and Dad can come and see you. Amanda was so eager to check on you but decided for us to buy you fruits. So make sure you try to eat all of them ok?” Claire rolled her eyes pointing to the big basket of fruits before patting my hand while smiling at me. Guessing by her reaction my mother in law probably overreacted seeing the wide variety of fruit in the basket. “ Thank you Claire and Mikhail.” Claire's husband just nodded his head as he placed his hand at the back of his wife while his free hand was holding Yulia’s.“ Bye Yulia, let's play later.” Alexander waved his hand to her and Yulia uttered “ok.” Waving back to my son. This fast few months that the Mikhaylov Family Live in our home in Oak Hill. The two became so close like they were real cousins. A smile forms on my face as my dad and mom come closer to the bed. Dad brushed my hair while mom took my hand and squeezed it gently. I can see Mom has misty eyes so I tried to cheer them up.“ I’m ok,Th
When we reached the airport it was only then that I realized that I had already forgotten about the file that I’ve just read. When I asked James he told me he will make sure to delete it because we left the secret room in a hurry and Neo was not instructed what to do with the file. I sight and thank him for everything. When I landed in Iowa City I was grateful to see that Mr. Fred was there waiting for me. When I glance at my phone it seems like nothing has changed after I left my husband. Sitting in the passenger seat I felt a throbbing pain in my head. This fast 24 hours has been a roller coaster ride. The overwhelming stress, flying back and forth to this city but it doesn’t matter even though my legs are aching my stomach is a bit upset. As long as I can see Clyde the moment the sun rises up. I will be ok, we’ll that's what i thought but upon arriving in the hospital my stomach became unbearable that Amanda who just arrived as well notice my pale look.“ Goodness! Dear, how did yo
James looked worried about me but eventually said fine and I immediately clicked the file. It was a video compilation and It plays right away. The video looks a bit old, probably from six years ago when I was still pregnant with Alexander. I gasped when I saw myself in the video walking around with a big bump. Serving some customers who ordered my aunt's famous homemade carrot cake. The video was taken not far from where I stood . It was a scorching hot day and I remembered I collapsed from the heat but I don't remember how I ended up in the hospital without any injuries at all. But in the video the camera shivered the moment i held my head trying to fight off the dizziness that i am feeling at that moment and then everything became blank but not on the video who somehow still caught the entire event. Clyde stood behind me grabbing my shoulder with one arm making my body rest on him before he scooped me up, surprising the people around the cafeteria. My Aunt came out of the casa and
Chapter * 119 She Found The Answer *The room was huge and had a big bed near the balcony. Everywhere I look, the very walls of this room are basically filled with small or big picture frames of me while I was still pregnant, while I was working on my Aunts small Cafeteria, until I gave birth to Alexander. What caught my attention was the huge portrait I had with my son when he just turned one. I wonder if Clyde pays off the photographer to get a copy of it but it doesn’t matter. I know he was obsessed with us and somehow even though it defies practical reasoning. Deep in my heart I am glad that he was there in every milestone of our son. Even without knowing, just thinking how much effort he has to put in just to have a glimpse of us from afar. A stabbing pain fierce through my heart. I wipe the tears that slip down on my cheeks as I wonder how much pain he had suffered when he wanted to be with us and he couldn't. I glance at James whom I caught staring at me. His eye’s show sad emo
Within two hours I arrived safely in the Oak Hill VIlla in Jefferson city. I was greeted by familiar faces who were shedding tears. They are the ones I often see, serving Alexander and me at home. “ I’m back, you guys should greet me with a smile, why are you all shedding tears?” I asked while Miss Charlotte came forward and asked if she could carry my hand bag. I gave it to her and dismissed the other servant with a grateful smile etched on my lips.“ Where is James?” I asked while we stepped in the elevator.“ Mistress, Mr. James is at Master’s Clyde office.” I walk straight to the office after the elevator opens.“ Mistress, would you like something to eat or drink?”“ Did James have his dinner?” I inquired “ Mister James doesn’t want to be bothered, the last time he asked for food was at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, Mistress.” I nodded my head in acknowledgement.“ Please prepare two green teas and a light sandwich will be fine, Thank you Miss Charlotte.” I knock once before punc
I shut my eyes, Rearranging my thoughts.“ Ok, Are you certain that I can predict the password?” I asked in a serious tone of voice that even my son sit up on the couch properly.“ I am absolutely sure, trust me you mean the world to Clyde, I know it’s something only both of you know.” I took a deep breath, I really don’t want to leave my husband's side but if this will help him. I wanted to try if I could be of any help. I am not that well versed in the world of business but I am well aware that one huge business deal means a lot for a businessman.“ Fine, I’ll leave after I revisit Clyde in the hospital. Does my in-laws know about this already?” I inquired.“ They know, but are you sure you want to leave tonight?”“ The earlier it's done the faster I can go back and be by my husband's side. You only need to arrange that the private jet is ready when I arrive at the airport, James.”“ Absolutely! Rest assured it will all be taken care of Alec, You only need yourself and will be fixe
I screamed in horror as I watched Clyde shield us with his body.“No!” My hand lifted in the air as I saw my husband fall on the ground behind me. It was like what had just happened played in front of my eyes. Tears started streaming down my cheeks as I tried to reach Clyde but things became darker and darker and it was suffocating that I couldn't breathe. I shouted Clyde’s name and asked him to wake up and it was only then that my eyes fluttered open and I was greeted by the room's darkness. The only light emitting was from the post lamp. My brows furrowed as I looked at my wristwatch. It was already 8 in the evening. I remembered talking to my parents and Alexander before I went to bed this morning. After that I felt like I was stuck in a dream that repeatedly plays on after the cycle of events was over.I pushed my body to move and I sat up on the bed feeling my head was still heavy. What my mom probably gave me was sleeping pills to help me sleep. It took five minutes before I felt
When we came back after forcing myself to eat just to have power to start the day. Claire booked a hotel where she, Yulia, my son and my parents can stay and rest while we are waiting for the news of my husband waking up. When we came back I saw the staff of the hospital start preparing Clyde’s room. It's fascinating how money can move people to do things efficiently, if Clyde is just an ordinary person and we are living a normal life. I stop myself from thinking because I start having chills all over my body. If we are just ordinary people Clyde won’t have the privilege to have a good Doctor attending to him nor a private room that no one can bother him with while he recuperates.Not long after everything was arranged in my husband’s private room, one nurse came out telling us that the attending physician was inside waiting for me and Amanda to come inside. Amanda warmly held my arms as we both entered the room.As we open the room we are welcomed by the beeping sound of the monito
