Chloe groaned in her sleep. Her head hurts and her body aches like crazy. She rubbed her temple to ease the pain and her eyes were still closed. She winced when another wave of headache hit her. Closing her eyes more tightly she then opened them slowly and blinked.
She blinked several times to adjust her sight and when she was finally able to see fully, her eyes widened slightly when she took in the unfamiliar ceiling and she frowned, feeling a mattress under her body. It wasn't soft but it wasn't hard either.
She tilted her head to the side in her state of confusion only to jolt back in her place.
Her eyes broadened to the size of a saucer as she abruptly scooted back on the bed. Her head hurts like crazy at her sudden abrupt movement but she didn't care. There to the right of the bed sat Andrew on the chair, looki
Her heart trembled inside his chest when he twisted his neck in a psychotic manner making her nerves quiver in fear. It took everything in her to not run for the door and ran away from him at that moment.He looked lethal.Predatory.As he prowled towards her. She stumbled an abrupt step back. It was involuntarily, she didn't want to move back but it happened as an instinct."Are you scared, Chloe?" He asked calmly, making her heart pound wildly inside her ribcage. She wanted to say yes because she was terrified but she stayed mute. Not saying anything.The fact that he always called her Love and was now calling her Chloe made her heart bleed. Nothing made sense to her anymore. She was at the point of her life where she didn'
"And you assumed your own answer. Not only that, my little wife also came to her own conclusion." He mocked venomously letting her go with a jerk as she flinched back, taking in a sharp breath."You will look after my child Chase as his nanny, I'm hiring you, I will pay you to look after him. Do you know what this means?" He said calmly, taking a step towards the window.She knows what this means. He was trying to hurt her by making her believe that he was snatching away her right of being a mother.She stayed quiet. She knew he was angry and maybe if she let him take out his anger then maybe there would be less hatred in him towards her."I see. Playing the victim card." He muttered while his eyes continued to gaze out of the window which looked more like a jail window
She saw how Chase's eyes widened as he gazed at her standing at the door frame."Mommy!" He screamed in happiness and next her sweet boy jumped off the bed and made a dash towards her.Chloe dropped down to her knees and engulfed her boy in a tight hug. His small arms wrapped around her neck tightly as if he was afraid that she might disappear.Tears of happiness flowed out of her eyes as she inhaled her baby's scent. Finally it was peace. Finally half of her heart started to beat again."Let's get inside the room, Chase." She softly said, breaking the hug as the boy nodded his head in affirmation. Getting inside she closed the door and patted the side of the bed where Chase immediately climbed and sat down."Mommy I missed y
"I don't understand." Susie said after a long pause."Everything was going fine and then all of a sudden I got to know that our always brooding boss has a son and then the son was just like the father who made three nannies lose their jobs on the very first day and then you came. Chase listened to you as if you were his mother." She said in a thinking manner making Chloe to sigh."And today the boss was behaving so weird. He always takes care of his staff, even to the extent that we eat the same food as him but today he especially commanded us to prepare that tasteless food for you. I don't understand." Susie mumbled while sitting in front of her with a frown on her face."I wonder who is the mother of his child?" Susie said.The answer was at the tip of Chloe's tongue b
She walked towards his office which was now on the north wing of the mansion. She was about to walk up the stairs to the second floor where his office used to be but Shawn informed her where his office really was.As she stood in front of the big black door. Her heart started to beat faster with nervousness. Many questions started to swirl inside her head to which she had no answer.With a deep breath she knocked on the door and heard his voice "come in."With mustered up courage she walked inside and closed the door shut behind her. She didn't want him to think that he scared her.Walking further in, she stood in front of his desk. He was sitting there like a true mafia boss. The mere aura around the room was intimidating and there was his scent in the whole place which
A loud gasp escaped her lips when his large calloused hand wrapped around her dainty neck.And next thing her lower back was pressed against his desk and he was hovering over her like a true beast. Perhaps she put the nail on his sensitive nerve."Get the fuck out of your dream world Chloe." He hissed at her face making her shudder internally but she knew she was getting under his skin. A certain reaction from him other than hatred."Why?" She asked innocently with a pout and blinked at him. His brows shoot up at that act of hers. She used to do that all the time in the past when he wouldn't listen to her or deny her something.The vein in his neck popped up in rage but still his hold on her neck was firm, not hurting. "This will not work on me Chloe." The way he said th
Lowering her head she walked out of the study but stopped when she met with the frowning Susie who was holding a wooden tray in her hand that was filled with food."Stay here. I'll be back in a minute." Susie said to Chloe before she heard a come in and walked inside. Not a second later Susie was out again but the tray of food was still in her hands."He said he's not hungry." Susie said with a shrug of her shoulders but Chloe knew she was the reason for his not so hungry mood.They walked down the stairs towards the kitchen and all the while they were quiet but Susie spoke up as soon as she placed the tray on the slab."What were you doing in there?" Susie inquired and Chloe's brows creased at her question, she felt offended that Susie was asking why she was in her husb
Chloe walked to Chase's room but her son wasn't there, not even in the restroom. A sudden worry enveloped her heart as she jogged into the lounge, kitchen but Chase was nowhere.Finding Chloe running around the house like a maniac, Susie grabbed her arm and Chloe panted. "Chase isn't in his room." Chloe said in a panicking voice making Susie frown."Calm down. Chase is with the boss." Susie said calmly and a deep breath left Chloe's lungs in a whoosh. Her shoulders sagged and she rubbed her forehead to ease the severe pain that was abrupt in waves."What's wrong?" Susie asked as she helped Chloe to sit on the settee in the lounge as she herself sat beside her."I got so worried." Chloe mumbled softly and Susie frowned. It's just been a week of Chloe being Chase's nanny a
