Xavier stepped back to the bed, he couldn't get it at all, and Lilian tells him when to leave. Meanwhile, she was still asleep when he got ready for work, Tracy prepared his breakfast even when his so-called fiancee was with him in the same building."What is it again Lilian, for goodness sake stop testing my patience." He yelled at her.She bit her lips and caressed her hair, it felt really good seeing Xavier irritated. Besides, he left the babysitter last night, and she got sad. This is his punishment for making her feel bad."Xavier, you are not leaving here if only if you accede to sack that lady, trust me to do that myself if you aren't showing concern towards my feelings." Lilian narrated.He stepped backward grabbing the sentence she just made. "No one told you?"She lifted her face staring at his fact, precisely, she was waiting so he would complete the statement."Uh-huh? I'm listening…"He snorted and shook his head. "No one told you that laws aren't to be taken by you? You
"I'm so sorry for that." Vanessa pleaded. She had known that the little girl must be upset with her, but then she was still so sad about the incident that occurred the past day."So, dad took you to school today huh?" She asked her. Chloe nodded slightly."After I explained everything to him, he persisted in taking me to school himself, and then I would come to stay with you once I'm back from school." She narrated carefully.Vanessa affixed her eyes on the phone screen, "I'm sure you've taken your lunch right?""Yes, but I want a cupcake. Dad gave me some money to get one for myself." She started and handed the money over to her.Vanessa stared at the money and smiled widely. "This exact money is the reason your stepmother wants me punished by your father. She accused me of what I know nothing about and I sank into despair last night." She folded it and got on her feet.Chloe couldn't keep her eyes off her, she had known that she would pass through much pain last night. But then, it'
***********Xavier arrived home to get Tracy and Ben seated at the veranda, they both had that rigid expression on their faces revealing that they aren't feeling okay.He walked towards them."Hi kids, why are you all seated here? Hope all is well, and where is Chloe?" He asked them.Tracy got on her feet and took the briefcase from him. "We aren't fine Dad, and Chloe left her babysitter since she came back from school."He glanced at Ben who wasn't saying a single word, he only stared at the floor."Ben, you aren't gonna welcome Dad today?" He referred to his son.He lifted his face to him, twisting it the more. "Not until you kick that lady out of this house.""Why? What happened? Did it offend you?" He threw multiple questions at them all at a time.Tracy got seated again. "Yes dad, she offended us. Your so-called fiance ate the whole food but couldn't prepare any for our return.""You mean, you all have been starving since you returned from school including Chloe?" His eyes widen
"Employing me as your manager is the only thing that will keep binding the two of us together till eternity. But if you persist in not granting my request, then forget everything about me in your life…" Lilian started aggressively.Xavier watched her utter the words, he only smiled inwardly."Sorry, but you must be insane, Miss. I don't think this is the Lilian I met earlier." He commented and left for the bathroom.Lilian couldn't say a word, she knew what was going on between them and she isn't insane. If only she can get this opportunity, then it will be the best.With this idea of hers, she believes that everything won't be lost if Xavier ever leaves her.He stepped out of the bathroom to hear Chloe calling him out from the corridor. Before he could respond to it, she banged the door open and moved in.She ran into his arms in an embrace and he held her to himself.Chloe glanced at Lilian who sat on the bed and contorted her face. She pointed her fingers at Lilian tapping her fath
"I don't need your help to care for my father, I'm glad the other lady had left very early in the morning. You two should leave my father, he's married with three kids…" she remarked.Vanessa stood on her feet while staring at the girl. She understood how she felt, but couldn't help it.The comment Tracy made about Lilian made her shudder. She couldn't believe the lady would leave her fiance even in a critical condition that might lead to something else."Why did she leave? Are you guys having issues with her?" Nessa inquired from them.The two glanced at each other."Why do you care to know? The next step you're to take now is to leave as well just like she did." Ben added.She circled her lips in dismay. "It's okay, if you two persist that I should go… then I will." That was all she stated and l Chloe's room.Chloe rushed after her into thhasnhasn't'tfor once loved her sibling's actions toward the lady."Don't get annoyed towards them, ma'am Vanessa. I beg of you please take care of
She was ordered by Xavier to let him into his room where he conducted certain examinations on him and promised to get him medications immediately.Vanessa sat and helped him take the meal until the plate was emptied. She pushed the plate aside and decided to clean him up."I want to always feel the warmness of your palm." He started and gripped her palm again.She was about to say a word when Lilian moved into the room, she felt goose pimples all over her skin. Chapter 20The anger in Lilian's eyes was burning like a flame. She felt a deep sensation that indicates hatred running through her veins.Damnit! She had known a day like this would come.She moved towards Vanessa and yanked her hair with the utmost vigor. This lady is dealing with her innermost part.Vanessa struggled to get off her palm but she gripped her with both palms. The innocent woman wasn't getting herself any longer."Let go of her, Lilian…" Xavier screamed at the top of his voice, but she was less concerned this t
"After succeeding in taking him away from me, you could remember of your bakery and come around here to make sales huh…" she referred to the innocent woman who kept staring at her.Vanessa won't take it likely with her this time. If she had looked at her the first time, then that's because she won't fight her at her own home.But then, the bakery is hers. Therefore, she won't stand hopelessly and watch Lilian a bit more than she can chew."If you loved him so dearly and wouldn't want another woman to take him away from you, why then did you leave him to be alone in such condition? Why Lilian? You are selfish, you know that Right?" Vanessa screeched at her.She dashed into the building. "I can see. So you're planning to take him away from me huh?""I don't have anything to do with your fiance okay. Xavier was in a critical condition, so I had to offer him some help through my doctor. That's all." She explained.She smiled in a hostile manner. "Vanessa you lie. Even before you were empl
Lilian had dozed off while waiting for Xavier to return, she had thought the man was coming back home.Well, she's unaware that Xavier left the company and didn't bother to let her know.Since she had decided to ignore her even in public, he had to let her be for good.She was awoken by the fullness of her bladder that needed to be relieved, and instantly, she returned to the room after making use of the restroom."He isn't yet back, I'm just sure he isn't with Vanessa or I'll skin that lady alive." She muttered to herself while moving towards the door.She climbed down the stairs to the sitting room, but couldn't find a single soul in the building. Every corner of the house was so quiet.A gasp escaped her throat. "He left to work without letting me know huh? No! Xavier can't just do that.." she moved to the kitchen and disclosed the refrigerator.Her eyes caught a meal filled in an aluminum dip plate, and she grabbed it out.Not again, but she will do it again."Tracy will prepare t
