All Chapters of His lying nanny: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

Jake I closed the door with a soft click, making sure it didn't make any noise that would rouse the twins from their sleep. I wondered how they would take the news of me finally putting them in separate rooms; later this year, they would turn seven and I wanted them to get used to each of them having a space of their own. A small smile crossed my lips when I imagined Kelvin shooting down the idea, not because he didn't want a room for himself, but because he didn't want his twin alone. An involuntary sigh fell off my lips, as I did not like the fact that Karl was so timid and scared of everything. It never ceased to amaze me, the difference between them. The two were as different as night and day, although they looked alike. We all never had trouble telling them apart because their voices were different, the same as their preferences and behaviours. A thought of Victoria saying something like, 'that's what makes them special. Why have two that act like one when we can have two act lik

Jake I sat still, watching my friends hold themselves as they laughed hard after they heard what happened to me. I should have known to tell my cousin, Ella, about it would mean them knowing what transpired. Take it from me, never tell your cousin, who is dating one of your best friends, the awkward things you experienced. "If you two don't stop laughing, I'll take my leave," I told them. Miles and Justin ignored me and kept laughing like that was all we had to do today. I rose from my chair and straightened my jacket, preparing to leave. The look on my face, plus my checking my golden wrist watch must have told them I was serious because they immediately stopped laughing. "We're done now. Sit back down, don't worry." Miles said, trying his best to keep his face straight. I turned my head towards Justin who immediately covered his silent chuckles with a loud cough. I didn't see it but I knew Miles kicked Justin's leg under the table. "Ouch!" Justin yelled, bringing his leg up so

Jake I got out of the Rolls Royce, buttoning my jacket as I looked around the house I was raised. Okay, maybe house was an understatement to the huge stone mansion with many rooms and space for a small country to live in. I released the breath I didn't even know I was holding, preparing my mind for whatever it was my grandmother wanted from me. I looked at the man that had been my driver ever since I was a young boy, trying my best not to frown even though it was all I wanted to do. His constant meddling in my affairs never failed to annoy me, even though I knew it was coming from a place of concern. I had instructed him to take me to the graveyard so I could visit Victoria's grave, only for him to turn while I was busy going over some paperwork, taking me here instead. As I opened my mouth to give him a small piece of my mind, my grandmother walked outside, looking normal for a woman who claimed to be feeling under the weather. She stood on the huge landing after the wide stone step

Jake As I spoke on the phone, talking to my team trying to get finalize a permit for a new department store in Spain, I suddenly felt chills run down my spine like I was in freezing water. I tried hard to shake the feeling, wondering why my skin had this prickling sensation and my hair was standing. At a point, I took the remote to the Aircon and switched it off, and then closed the windows too because of the cold. "Sir?" Oliver, the head of my acquisition team said, and I tried to return my focus to what we were discussing, but I found that I couldn't. The problems in Spain could wait, if I had to go there to resolve them then I would go, but for now, I needed rest. "Let's continue this discussion tomorrow by eleven, it's been a long day and I am tired." I heard a surprised intake of breath and I knew my request for the postponement of the meeting must have shocked them. It's public knowledge that I didn't rest especially when work was to be done. "Yes sir." They chorused, not eve
