A/N: Hi besties😊, I’m sorry for the missed chapter, “the newly hired maid is ugly” comes before Who hired you”. It was a mistake from my side and I sincerely apologize 🙏🏾. Thank you🙏🏾🥹..In the mirror, Adele couldn’t believe her facials, she didn’t consider herself pretty even with her curly red hair but this Adele was ugly. She thought to herself after seeing the mole on her face and then her somehow wrinkled face.“ I don’t think with this look, I will be hired Grace” Adele turned to Grace who chuckled.“ you asked to be ugly Adele but you never know what they are looking for sis. Try it and if they accept you, I’m going to miss you” she said hugging Adele who sighed.“ There, this is a makeup thing to keep the mask intact” Grace handed Adele a little makeup purse which she sighed collecting. It was mid-morning already when she left their apartment. She took a taxi that stopped at the estate gate to the McCall mansion.Adele wore a grandma-looking gown and stood aside hoping
Inside the busy hall, Maria arrived late after having an emergency meeting with some investors to have a lot of votes for her son.Immediately she entered with her bodyguard and went to her seat, she saw the models already walking in the hallway.“Has Lisa Macaulay McCall had her speech?” She asked an actress who sat at the seat close to her.“Yes ma’am, she just left not quite long. She did speak well” the beautiful actress said for Maria to nod. She stood up and left for the dressing room.“Where’s Lisa?” She asked after seeing Lisa's assistant standing close to a door having Lisa's name on it.“Welcome ma’am” the assistant immediately greeted bowing her head.“Where’s Lisa?” She asked again for the assistant to quickly respond.“She asked for an alone time after the speech ma’am,” she said for Maria to sigh.“Tell her I’m here and I need to speak with her,” Maria said for the assistant to nod.Inside the dressing room, Daniel's lips were already tracing their way in between Lisa's
Adele was shocked, what she just heard was like she was standing in front of God and he just sent her to hell. She doesn’t know what to do or how to tell Harden that she can’t follow the kids to their grandmother and what the scenario is looking like is as if she’s not going then the kids can’t go. She sighs after minutes of thinking. “Ok sir” she whispered for Harden to look at her. He stares at her for some minutes before looking away. Since she arrives at his mansion, the scent of his baby's mother has been lunging around. It has been getting him curious but he doesn’t want to bluntly ask her. Every time, she passes him or stands beside him during his therapy session, the scent lingers. He has wondered if she uses the same scent and what type of unique scent smells so good. That night, he sniffed in her scent that even in his dreams, lingers around his nose. Adele wanted to leave since Harden didn’t say anything, she bowed her head to leave when she heard him stop her. “
It was morning, Adele woke up and prepared the kids for school, and Maria sat and watched as prepared them. “ how do I look grandma?” Zia asked Maria as she flaunted her pretty school uniform in front of her grandmother. Her red mixed-with-black hair was dressed with beautiful butterflies to match her uniform and her pretty socks. Maria smiled pecking her forehead. “Beauty my dear, like the princess that you are,” she said for Zia to chuckle. Adele followed them to the car where the driver drove them out. Immediately she went back to the mansion to prepare their things as she would be going back to Harden mansion. “Today should be the last day I will see you. You are too ugly to be my grandchildren's maid. Drop your resignation letter once you go back to my son's home. I will reward you handsomely for your services and time spent on them” She heard Maria speak as she looked at her. “I’m sorry ma, I can’t,” she said for Maria to smile. “I understand. They love you because
At the McCall enterprise vice president's office, Albert sat down with his son facing him, he tapped his fingers on the table sighing. “That old wrinkled bitch, how dare she think she can turn the board members away from me, I thought you said you have Lisa around your fingers Daniel?” He asked his son who stood up sighing. “Yes I do Dad, she’s not a problem. The problem is the governor who also has a share in the company. You know how much he adores Harden's dad, and the accusations of killing Uncle Gerald are still lingering. We need a lot of supportive allies. I can’t wait to be the president and let Harden know that, even if I’m not regarded in the family, I’m still smart and smarter than he can imagine” he said for Albert to scoff. “What if we invite him over for dinner?” Albert asks his son who chuckles. “Dad. Mr Governor won’t…. “He’s a human, all it needs is just persuasion” Albert confidentially said. At one of New York's elite Lounge, Maria sat with three other ladies
At a restaurant on the elite side of the city, the red-haired lady who just round up with her evening shift removed her apron while still on her uniform. She hung the apron on the staff hanger when her little phone began to ring.“ Gracie” she called to hear the worried voice of her friend speak at the other end of the phone.“Adele, I need you, I don’t know what I did to my client. Please you should come to the hotel, don’t call the cops…..“ calm down Grace, what happened and tell me the name of your hotel.” Adele immediately carried a paper to write it t down.“Western Hotel Room 2……..8,” Grace said as the signal began to break.“Room 2 what Gracie, I can’t hear you” Adele worriedly said as she tried to correct the number of the room.“ 2….8” The phone bumps for Adele to sigh.“Goodness,” she worriedly said as she didn’t know if it was 28 or 208. She knows it’s two, a middle number before eight but she doesn’t know which exactly so she decided to go with room 208.“ Mary, I’m out,”
The knock on the door woke Adele up, she groaned and weakly sat up and found out she was in a hotel room.“Fuck” she cursed rubbing her scattered hair as she looked around and the stranger is gone. She looks inside her blanket and finds herself still naked.The knock began to hit again for Adele to quickly stand up, and rush on her clothes before carrying her bag. She rushed out of the room for the cleaner to look at her as she rushed out.“Grace” she called crying as she regretted the decision she took last night.She called her friend's number as she stopped a taxi to their apartment.After multiple rings Grace picked.“Where have you been?” her husky voice asked for Adele to burst into tears.“ I’m so sorry Grace, where are you?” She asked to hear her friend's voice.“Home,” she said and hung up for Adele to rub her scattered hair crying.“ Adele, what did you do?” She said crying. The taxi stopped at an apartment for Adele to come out and pay her bills before she rushed into their
It’s been a week since Adele confirmed her pregnancy, she continues her work as a waitress because deciding to keep the child means extra expenses and she doesn’t know who the father is to tell him she’s having his baby. She’s three weeks gone and she felt easily tired and weak apart from the morning sickness.She hung her apron on her stand as she was done with her shift for the day.“Can you come by morning tomorrow, Samira just called she won’t be able to make the morning shift or the evening because of her sick father” the manager said to Adele who sighed.“Extra pay?” She asked for the manager to nod.“Sure,” he said smiling at Adele who nodded her head.“Ok,” she said knowing she needed the money.Adele left the front of their restaurant as she walked to the bus stop to wait for the next bus ride.“Goodness,” she sighed looking for where to sit as she was feeling dizzy and nauseous. She carried her little phone to call Grace to find out if she would be coming home for the night.
