All Chapters of Billionaire Baby Daddy: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

AlexaIt was dark when I got back home. Olivia and Hen were already in their rooms. I took off my shoes and dumped them in a corner. I went to the kitchen for a glass of water and saw a note from Olivia. She made dinner, it was in a tupperware in the fridge. I took it out and set it in the microwave. I sat down and waited for it to warm. I couldn't eat enough at the Prince’s place before Mr Johnson demanded we leave the place immediately. The rice was heavenly and the chicken simply divine. I was still angry at him for making me miss out on such nice food. I was angry that I was late to get home. When we got to the office I reminded him that I wanted to go back home, work hours were over. “Did you sign the work contract this morning?” he asked. I nodded and told him I signed it in Andrew’s office before I came to meet. “Then you know, you have to be here past work hours as long as I am here,” he went back to the thick file on his table going through it like it was the proclamation

AlexaAndrew went to his office. I went to the office, I was worried I had stepped too hard on Derrick’s toes. He didn't seem to be the type to take criticism. He had to take my suggestions if he wanted the deal. He was in his office for a long time. With each passing hour my fear for my job became greater. I guess I should have been softer when making my argument earlier. I went to the rec room for a cup of coffee to pass my time. Andrew came by the office later, He had a large brown suitcase. He said a quick ‘Hi’ and ran into the office. I shook my head and smiled, Andrew was always running to meet Derrick. I opened up the email for any work to do. Nothing, all of it was already taken care of. There was nothing of note in there. All were just routine updating emails on the progress of a research or market study. I forwarded the ones that needed a look at to Derrick and replied to the more low stakes emails. That done I pulled up a game of candy crush on the laptop and smashed colour

Alexa I was on time. I always am. But Derrick was in his office. Four weeks of working in this office and I have gotten here before him once. He was always there sitting at his desk or pacing his office and making some calculations. He was a ghost that haunts that place every time. I vaguely wondered if he had a secret room in there and spent his nights there. I sorted through his emails for any priority issues he had to reply to. None. I switched the browser to Zillow. Now that I had gotten my first pay cheque I was looking into making a downpayment on my own place. Oliva was great for accommodating us this long but Hen and I needed our privacy just as much as she does. The real estate agents I've been talking to are not taking me seriously and the ones that did cannot offer a house that was close to Hen’s school. I didn't want to establish him in a new school and then uproot him and plant him in a strange school in such a short time. I also didn't want to be far so he could stay

I had lost my temper when she told me she wouldn’t be attending the Prince event, how dare she?Even I didn’t get that sort of invite.I was burning with fury in my insides, and I knew for certain why.I had worked long and hard for this deal and I wouldn’t let her ruin it for me.The Prince event was also going to bore me to death and I needed her to be there, for my selfishness, to gaze and to stare at her unending.I felt a knot in my throat as she jumped slightly from my roar, she looked terrified and I felt a pang of regret for throwing my outburst on her. I had even threatened her with her job. She was going to do as I say and not what she pleases.She had tried to fight back a little, her voice shaky, and I had to send her out of my office before I did something that would send both of us into shock.Having calmed down a bit, I took the retriever and dialed her number again. She entered my office quietly, looking more comported than the last time.“You called me”, her voice ric

The office line rung intruding my thoughts and I felt irritated, I wasn't expecting anyone to call the office at this time, so I grabbed the receiver and wanted to tell the person off,“Hello,” I recognized the voice immediately, the voice of the one who's been haunting me for the past few weeks now, and I felt a certain release of blood in my veins, her voice calming down my tensed body, the feeling was strange to me but I liked it, and I wanted to get used to it.“Alexa, is there any problem”?“Yes, um, sorry…No”.Was she okay?“I would be going to the Prince event with you, sir”. My heart flipped over when I heard her say that.“Okay, send your home address, and I’ll have my driver pick you up in 20”, tried my best to hide the excitement I felt.Since she was going, I needed to look good too, for her. Why do I care all of a sudden about how she thinks I look? I knew my answer. I took my car keys and sped home like a raved dog, got into the cold shower, and let the water hit me hard
