I'm surprised to see security guards around the premises, Klaus has never been the kind to keep security guards.
"Why all these guards?"
"Klaus made these developments the moment Kyle was brought home"
"But why ?" I ask confused
"He's a billionaire honey, and their children, especially their sons are always targets. The heir is always the biggest threat to the enemy"
"Wait!, Is my son's life in danger?"
"I did not say that Hazel, I was only trying to explain why Klaus' yard is packed with security guards"
"Oh..." Is all I can say. As we drive in further were stopped by a security guard but the moment he sees Wendy, he lets us through. She parks in the driveway and turns off the car engine.
"You take it from here"
"Huh?"
"You go in there and make things right with Klaus and also apologize to Kyle for not seeing him until now"
"Why aren't you coming in?"
"Why on Earth should I do that?, I don't want to get caught
Few weeks laterWendy and I are meeting today. I want us to do something that has been on my mind ever since she told me about her break up with Blake. The blind date I set between her and Craig was more successful than I had imagined. Their chemistry is intriguing even though Wendy suggested they took things slow and Craig isn't rushing as well. The most important thing is that she's happy and that's all I ever want.I drive into the yard and honk three times and in no time, she steps out if the apartment which was formerly ours but I moved in with Klaus so she lives alone now. She gets into the car with a confused look plastered on her face."What's with the hurry?"
Hazel's POVNot all of us had a happy childhood life and a lot things could have caused that. It could've been financial issues, health issues or the situation at our homes. Some people had a horrible childhood because they had nothing, not even the most basic needs, others had everything but couldn't enjoy these things because of sicknesses, some were bullied by their mates time and again and others had broken families.My childhood was not good at all and do you know why?...well I'll tell you why. My father is the reason why I had a horrible childhood. He was a horrible, mean jerk. A wealthy and no nonsense business man. Growing up I watched my father beat up my mother almost all the time and even now that I'm nineteen, I still get to witness that. The funniest thing is that my mother still loves my father despite everything. I wonder how that's possible because for me I hate my father.YesI ha
It's Klaus Arthur, my new boss.But wait... how did he get my number and why on Earth is he calling me at this hour?. I hope all is well."Excuse me?" I ask annoyed at the fact that he's trying to make it sound like I'm supposed to answer his calls anytime he calls."Why haven't you been answering your phone?" The nerve of this guy."I happened to be far from it""In case you're wondering, it's Mr Arthur""I noticed""Good" I hear him exhale heavily over the phone. "Hazel" he calls and I find it odd because he's always all formal with Miss Kenish. "I know this is unexpected but please I need your help""My help?" I asked confused."Yeah, I've got a lot of work before me and I don't even know where to begin, I've got a deadline to meet tomorrow morning and even if I work all night by myself I won't make it . I need you to come over to my place so we could do it together. Please Hazel, it's urgent"This is so
He says sternly and I bow down my head in embarrassment."That's not your decision to make Klaus" Craig opposes."Yes it is, she's my employee" Klaus insists in a bossy tone."Dude, you're not her dad. Besides you should go and get all protective over Daisy and leave Emerald alone""The name is Hazel!" Klaus corrects in angry tone. Honestly, Craig is a pain in the ass."Oh please just drop it" he says rolling his eyes. He's obviously the younger and lousy brother."Hazel this is Craig Arthur, my younger brother, he's the Director of Heritage Affairs" He introduces and I'm totally wowed. So he's the CEO and his brother is the Director, their mother must be very proud of them. "Nice one there" is all I can say."We're going out so you take the rest of the day off"I yelp internally in joy. CSI Cyber, here I come!"Thank you sir." I say trying very hard to hide my excitement. I just can't wait to go home already."Emerald" The stubborn brothe
Klaus' POVBy ten am, Craig and I are at our mum's place eating breakfast."So how are things at the Enterprise?""Good, real good mum. Your first son is just as fruitful as his father"Craig compliments and I smile. He's always praising my works. Our sibling bond is unbreakable. I love him to bits and I'll never stop defending him. I'm twenty- eight and he's twenty-five. We attended the same school from kindergarden to college though I was always ahead of him in class. He was always getting into trouble and I always got back home with a broken nose as a result of defending him, but I never got tired and till now I'll stop at nothing to defend him. That's how much I love my little brother."I'm very proud of you son, both of you" Mum says as she smiles at us. I love my mother very much most especially because she raised my brother and I the right way. As little boys she never spared us. She would whoop our asse
When we get to his car, he opens the passenger seat door for me and I get in. He walks over to the driver's seat and once he's seated shot gone, he ignites the car engine and drives out of the parking lot. We drive to the office in an uncomfortable silence.If he tries talking to me I'll just jump out through the window.Once at the office building, he parks in the driveway and I immediately step out of the car and walk into the building. I take the elevator to the nineteenth floor where our offices are located and when I get into my office, I meet Craig comfortably seated on my chair.That nerves me a great deal."Hello Emerald" he greets with a cheerful smile.That nerves me even more. Right now everything about these two brothers nerves me."The name is Hazel" I correct in a cold tone."You were fine with me calling you Emerald the other day"
It's my very hot ex- boss Klaus. He's dressed in a pair of signature black jeans and white T-shirt with a black leather jacket over it. He has on a pair of black Snickers too. His black hair is perfectly combed and almost covers his left eye, damn he's hot and delicious!. I feel like kissing him this instant but hey.... that's not where we are right now."Hello, come in please" I usher him into the living room."Nice flat you've got here" he compliments and I begin to wonder why he would find this place cool. It's nothing compared to his fabulous condo."Thank you. Why are you here?" I ask not caring if I'm being rude or not."To know why you didn't show up at work" he says giving me a serious look.If he thinks I didn't mean what I said about quitting at his office then he's got it all wrong."Klaus I thought I gave you a resignation letter yesterday"
"I think I'm pregnant Wendy" I say worriedly"Let me get the pregnancy test so we could confirm" she leaves the toilet and later comes in with the test in her hand. I suddenly get very nervous."I..ca...I can't do this" I panic.Could I really be pregnant?"You have to do this so we'll know the way forward, Hazel come on"I reluctantly take the test from her and she excuses me while I drop my urine on it. I wait for five minutes as instructed and boom!, two lines fucking appear and that means I'm pregnant. I suddenly feel moredizzy but I manage to drag myself to the to my bedroom and lie on my bed."What does it say?" She asks concerned" Wendy I'm pregnant" I say sadly . How can I be pregnant?"Hey, it's gonna be fine" she assures me but I know it's not gonna be fine. I'm scared."No it's not. I'm going to have a baby, do you
