CHAPTER TEN: The drive was silent and I wondered if we were going to Grandpa's house, or does he have another location he wants to take me to.I turned to confront him after mustering every ounce of courage I could muster. "Where are we going, Master?" I queried.He gave me a sidelong glance before putting his head on the chair and closing his eyes, but when I assumed he wouldn't respond, he did."We're headed to Grandpa's house."I mumbled, "Oh," and nodded. After that, everything fell silent again until the chauffeur announced our arrival.There we are again, his grandpa's mansion where I'll get to see that annoying teenage girl and the guy trying to flirt with me but I'm a bit happy because I'll get to see Tiana, I enjoyed her company that day.We got down from the car and this time Xander held my hand, he interlocked our fingers together and took me in.The first person that welcomed us was Dianna, he had a beauty mask on and was climbing down the stairs when she saw us, she fro
CHAPTER ELEVEN:Immediately we came down,reporters started flashing a thousand cameras at us while some where throwing questions at us.I just stood there clueless and smiled sweetly like he instructed,some bouncers came and made way for us to pass.Xander wore an uninterested look and let go of my hand as soon as we entered the company.The employees bow their heads and greeted the both of us,he didn't reply but I did and he turned and frowned.We got into the elevator and there was silence for a while."Next time when they greet you ignore them" Xander said sternly."Why?" I was forced to asked, it sucks that most people think they can walk all over the poor just because they're rich."Are you questioning me?" He asked back."No master i just wanted to know why" I answered and roll my eyes secretly."Do whatever you like then" He scoffed and the elevator door opened.Did he just say I should do whatever I like?,I smirk and walk fast to catch up with him.If i don't act fast this mig
CHAPTER TWELVE:Debris reached the parking lot and rushed out of the car, slamming the door behind her like she was been chased.She stood in front of the restaurant panting hard,the restaurant looked empty but was well decorated.She wanted to push pass the security guards, that stood at the entrance but they held her back."Ma'am you can't go in there the restaurant is booked"the security guard said but Debris wasn't getting it.The paparazzis that was taking pictures of Xander and his fiancee was surprised to see Debris."Wait isn't that Debris Fallon the face of Glow models?" One of the reporters asked his colleague."Yes I think so,I also heard that she dated Xander Knox too"the other reporter replied."I think she's here to create a scene let's keep our eyes open" the first reporter said and focused on taking shots, while the other one was recording the scene."I've to go in" Debris replied and tried to push the guard out of her way but the other guards blocked her,Debris knew t
CHAPTER THIRTEEN:Xander watched as Marianne dropped on the floor and he rushed to check what was wrong with her."Miss, are you alright?" Zuna asked as she held Marianne's hand,Xander took off his jacket and pushed Zuna aside before grabbing her hand to check her pulse."She's alive,get the car ready" Xander ordered and Zuna rushed out, the wh*re he brought home looked just watched in confusion.Xander carried her in a bridal style and started walking towards the door but the wh*re stood in front of the door preventing him from going out."What're you doing?" Xander asked out of annoyance."Are you just going to leave me here?" She asked"No just go back I will call for you when I need you" Xander replied and roughly shove her aside.He got into the car and the driver drove off.Xander felt her pulse again and noticed her skin was red."Drive fast will you" He ordered the driver.They got to the hospital and he got down in a flash before rushing in,some nurses came with a stretcher a
CHAPTER FOURTEEN:I rushed upstairs the moment we got home,my whole body felt sticky I took off my clothes and tied a towel round my chest.I turned and was shocked to see Xander standing there,from the look of things he might have got in when I was undressing."What..what are you doing here?" I asked battling my eye lashes."I wanted to check up on..you ran upstairs like something was wrong?" He responded with a smirk and started walking towards me but I stepped backwards."Why are you worried I saw you" He smirked naughtily"Um..I didn't know that you were following me,I....am..fine" I stuttered miserably."You seem to lose your confidence,where the bold and daring you?" He teased "I am not bold,since when did you start caring about how I feel?" I asked and he stopped on his tracks,his demeanor changed."I came to give you this and also no going out with out my permission" He said sternly and drop my sweatshirt before walking out of the room.I exhale hard and scoff, maybe I should
CHAPTER FIFTEEN:I walk down the stairs in a hurry and saw that the maids had already set the table,I also made dinner so I can formally apologize for what I said last night.The servants as usual stood in front of the house in a straight line,I sighed deeply as he got down from the car and started heading towards the house.He ignored the maids and climb up the stairs acting like I wasn't even there."What a cocky jerk" I huffed but still am at fault, knowing what happened to his parents he's not to be blamed for his cold attitude.I climb upstairs heading towards his room when I saw him standing in front of my room,I cleared my throat then he look up I summoned some more courage on how to start a conversation with him."About what I said last night, I'm sorry I wasn't in my right senses..."Get dressed we're attending a mask ball party," He said and left me standing."Did he just ignore my apologies?, What a arrogant jerk" I scoffed.I took my bath and got dressed in a long sparklin
CHAPTER SIXTEEN: I froze in shock then I turned around to see him walking towards me,he stop right in front of me."What why do you look so shocked?" He asked then a step closer.I just stood there speechless then I turn to walk away but he held my hand."You haven't answered my question,why are you always avoiding me?" He asked staring back at me.Did he just say I was avoiding him,he is always ignoring me like i never existed until now."I don't know what you're talking about,let go of me" I said trying to release my hand from his grasp."We've a important meeting tomorrow so get ready, and also stop cooking for me you're in no position to do that" He said and kissed my hand then he left me stunned.Gosh what was I thinking when I sighed up for this now am the one who's being seduced instead,I just wanted a peaceful life with my brother and now I got myself entangled in this mess.I went back to my room deep in thoughts,why is he suddenly interested in talking to me, what's that su
