Kylie's POVIt's been more than six hours since my Charmaine entered the operating room for a four-hour thirty-minute surgery. I walked anxiously in front of the surgery room, asking any nurse and doctor who went in and came out of the operating room questions."Mum, I'm scared, it's been hours and nothing," I hugged my mom as I sobbed on her shoulder."Charmaine would be fine I promise," Mother let me rest in her embrace as she stroked my hair gently, "This is the last time for this.""Kylie, I never really asked but why are you in the hospital gown?" Mika asked, I bit my tongue and pulled away from Mom's embrace."I..hmmmm," I scratched my hair sheepishly, "Funny story, so…I…..hmm…" my brain was thinking of what to say that would make sense."Kylie accidentally drank the drugs meant for our boss," Harper stepped in for me, a breath of relief escaped my mouth, but drugs? Harper really? But it was better than poison."That's the funny story," I rolled my eyes with a funny smile on my
Kylie's POV"About what Miss Aimee said the other_"Aimee is now the new miss of the house and Vegas's mother is recovering well at the hospital. I haven't gotten a chance to speak to Vegas till today."I know she was joking around," I stared at Vegas in disbelief, I couldn't believe anything was Vegas pretending or did he not know."Why do you think Miss Aimee was joking around?" I questioned."Can't we just change the conversation? I haven't been out in a long time with you, so please," Vegas pleaded, his eyes begging me to stop."No, we can't, I don't even know what's going through your mind!" I yelled out my frustration."What do you want me to say? Kylie, what do you want me to say!" Vegas hit the steering wheel of his car and I flinched."I…I," my breath caught in my throat, I didn't expect this reaction.Vegas stepped on the brakes and parked his car by the side of the road, "Okay Kylie, what happened between you and Jaylen at the hotel? Kylie, I'm not dull neither am I blind_"
Kylie's POV"I sent her away because I didn't like the way she treated you," Jaylen said from behind me in the bathroom and I didn't even know when he entered the room."Oh, I see," those were the only words I could think of, "But you didn't have to, she is your sister," I added."She is my sister but I don't share that bond with her, I don't like her," Jaylen leaned on the bathroom wall."Okay," I stood up from the floor, "I'm done setting up your bath.""Join me for a bath," Jaylen said and my eyes widened in surprise."How could a mere employee possibly join you for a bath," I lowered my gaze, what was he thinking!!"A mere employee?" I could feel Jaylen behind me, "Would I take a mere employee to a wine opening with me?" Jaylen's fingertips brushed my neck as he moved my hair to the side."Madam would be looking for me now," I turned to leave when Jaylen held my wrist."Madam can wait, she works for me," Jaylen's husky voice whispered near my ears his hot breath fanning my jaw."W
Kylie's POV "Why do you think the caller pick you?" Andre asked while relaxing on the chair in Antonio's office."I don't know," I stopped pacing around the office."It's because Kylie is one of the most attractive assassins in the industry," Antonio answered and Andre clicked his finger."Exactly, I think the caller wants to kill Jaylen emotionally and not physically that's why he needs you," Andre said and I hate to admit, that was the first time he was making sense."But how do you think the caller knew me and had my number?" I raised my eyebrows questioning everything."Only an insider can give out such information, meaning an insider is working with the caller," Antonio replied"Do you think the caller plan is working?" Andre asked, I didn't have to think too much to know the answer."Jaylen is attracted to me, he wants me to move into his room," I sat lazily on the couch."He what!" I gave Antonio the side eye when he yelled."I thought you were seeing Vegas, so what happened?"
Kylie's POV"Do I really have to go for this dinner? Your family is going to be there and a lot of influential families, I don't think I belong there," I explained to Jaylen. This was one of the biggest end-of-year parties in town and only people of power could attend."Why?" Jaylen stared at me through the mirror while adjusting his necktie.Vegas was going to be there and I didn't want him to see us together, "I'm a mere worker, how could I dare go to an event like that." "You aren't a mere worker, you are Jaylen Noire Adryan's woman," Jaylen pecked my cheeks, "Get ready I will be downstairs waiting," Jaylen said and shut the door behind him.Do I really have to go? I wondered how Vegas was doing, after that dinner we hadn't spoken and Jaylen on the other hand was making efforts to win me over.*********"Who is she?" An elderly man who I assumed to be Jaylen's father asked, his voice calm yet holding so much authority and power."I'm Kylie Kazimir," I introduced myself before Jayl
Kylie's POV"Kylie, are you listening to me?" Jaylen asked, "Kylie, I'm_""Huh?" I raised my eyebrows now aware Jaylen was talking with me. Jaylen stared at me for a brief second before turning to look behind him, he scoffed when he saw Vegas, "Let's go greet Marissa," Jaylen dragged me by my wrist before I could reply."Marissa It's nice seeing you here and Vegas," Jaylen smiled at them, his hand finding its way to my waist."I didn't think you would come here," Vegas answered with his gaze on Jaylen's hand and I slowly removed Jaylen's hand from my waist."How is your health?" Jaylen asked Marissa."I'm getting better thanks to both my sons," Marissa smiled at both Vegas and Jaylen.Vegas stretched out his hand to me, "The music has changed, do you mind if we_""Kylie, let's dance," Jaylen pulled me away from Marissa and Vegas's presence before Vegas could complete what he was going to say.Jaylen was getting on my last nerves and I couldn't do anything about it."Do we really have
Kylie’s POVI HISSED IN irritation as I hit my left foot against the kitchen island and my stomach growled in unison.I ignored my stomach, like I had done so many times before. No, my thoughts were more focused on the bad omen of hitting my left foot and getting my daughter to the daycare on time so I didn't miss my job interview."Charmaine!" I yelled for her as I bit down the curse on my lips and limped into the living room with the last apple in the house in my hand.. "Mummy, mummy," Charmaine called as she ran down the staircase to meet me."Yes baby, Please turn around for me," I said with my most blinding smile as I dropped to a squat and proceeded to keep the apple in her school bag.Charmaine's tummy growled and she rubbed her stomach with a deep sigh that broke my heart. "Mummy, I'm hungry. My stomach hurts" She grumbled as a slight frown marred her beautiful face.Tears stung my eyes at the sight of my hungry baby and with a sigh I reached for a bottle of water I had fill
Kylie's POV"Is this some sort of prank? Do I look like a killer?" I hissed in irritation and relief as it occurred to me that my ex might have sent it to rankle me.In annoyance, I tore up the letter and threw it into the wastebasket.With any thoughts of sleep effectively ruined, I decided to pick up an extra night shift at Johny's, the restaurant I've worked at since my divorce.The pay was small, but the leftover scraps I get, feed Charmaine and me, so it's worth it.I bundled up my sleepy daughter in her thickest coat, and together we went down to the restaurant.***We both arrived at the restaurant, and I put Charmaine to sleep in the staff room while I got ready and began my shift."You brought our baby girl to work today," Kate, one of the other waitresses, smiled at me.Every day I brought Charmaine into work, and every day she said the same thing. Like I had somewhere else to drop my baby girl while I worked through the night.It irritated me, but I had learned to deal with
