The Unexpected Heir Chapter 23: New to the job.
Erick had an angry look on his face, right now I wasn't surprised by it, he gets angry over things that don't make sense. "What are both of you doing here, what's taking you so long to tie a freaking tie?" He asked through gritted teeth as he was staring at Miriam who wasn't paying attention to him but continued what she was doing. "There it's done." She said as she dusted invisible dust off my clothes and smiled at me. I dared not smile back, because since she was ignoring Erick ,he was now glaring daggers at me as if I did something wrong to him. "Bruce ,Come ask me if you need help again, I will be glad to help you as best as I can ,good luck on your first day at work." She winked at me, as walked towards the door and stopped in front of Erick blocking her path. "Erick ,Excuse me, can you move out of the way?" She asked him in a low voice and Erick, who looked like he wanted to strangle someone, moved aside and Miriam walked out and he watched her walk away ,then he turned back
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 24: What is your name?
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as the second guard glared daggers at me.I wanted to argue with the men standing guard at the door and tell him to open the door for me.I don't know what was going on inside the closed and i needed to go in there because this was the type of assignment that Mr Dominic sends his driver's on, it doesn't make sense that I wasn't allowed inside when I came with Erick , but seeing as Erick didn't come back to ask me to follow him inside, I guess this was confidential.Then I will stay outside and wait ,maybe when we go on another assignment I will go with him."Am I wrong when I said you were new to the job?" He asked me and I thought about lying but I decided not to.If Erick thought it would be necessary for me to go into the room with him, he would have told me what he was going to do here from the start."Yes, I guess you can say I am new to the job." I replied as I crossed my arms."I guess I made a good observation, when you prove that you are
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 25: Welcome to the mansion.
My eyes sparkled at the thought of being paid more than four thousand dollars a month.Wow! I would be able to save up money to start pursuing the case of my wife properly.Even though I know there will be obstacles in the job, I can overcome them, I know for sure.I was getting more excited about the job."How much are you paid now?" I asked when I knew I wasn't meant to ask."Don't ever ask me that." He said as he pressed the car horn.He explained what just happened, I will let him be.Even after Erick's explanation, these past two days were very confusing,but when we headed back to the mansion to rest, my mind was more at ease.Since Erick was done with his explanation, he just drove in silence and I took out my phone to look through my pictures, I stopped at a picture of Dora."Bruce,so you are at work and you are looking at your girlfriend's pictures?"I heard Erick ask from beside me and I smiled sadly.Why can't he just shut up for once, I thought he was ignoring me."Erick."
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 26: Cake.
Erick was obviously accusing me of something I didn't do.I have only stayed in the mansion for a day then stayed in protective custody of the police for two days. How am I the cause of their problem?I don't even want to reason with Erick ,because he is unreasonable and won't want to listen.If Miriam wants to talk to me and hang around me, that is absolutely her choice not his.I turned to Ivan."Ivan ,I don't think you should bother yourself about Erick, he won't even accept it if he did something wrong." I said to Ivan who narrowed his eyes at me.Ivan rolled his eyes at me."Bruce,I don't think you should get involved in matters that doesn't concern you, I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to Erick and you are not involved in this matter ,if anyone should reply it should be either Erick or Miriam ,so know your place."Ivan said to me with a glare.Woah!Okay !I don't understand why everyone was acting this way, but I rather not put myself in this situation where I will be
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 27: Early bird.
I smiled inwardly."I am at the gym,isn't that where we are supposed to work out this morning?" I asked him and I heard him scoff."So you don't need me to wake you up anymore, let me go to the gym and don't find you." He huffed as he ended the call and two minutes later he opened the door of the gym and glared at me.I was avoiding anything that would make Erick say I was not listening to his teachings, I know people like him and I know how to handle them.I was good at adapting to my environment and I know how to handle rude people that only talk down on you. That was how I lived with my Father and his family for all these years. I guess I have to continue gritting my teeth and endure all of these, till I get what I want.Nothing comes easily after all.I snapped out of my thoughts ,when I saw Erick who opened the door and angrily stomped his foot on the floor as he got to where I was standing."Get down and stay in a plank position for twenty minutes." He ordered ,through gritte
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 28: Make me coffee.
I really don't like talking about my family because there's nothing to talk about, should I say they hate me and want me to disappear."Oh Chase is your Father's name, that's interesting." Mr Dominic commented."Do you have siblings?" Mr Dominic asked another question, I wondered why he was asking me this question today.My relationship with my half siblings is the worst, a brat for a younger half sister and a bully for an older half brother.Isn't that a perfect combination that would make one live in a nightmare?"Um...well...It's complicated sir." I replied after a while of silence."I see." He hummed."But you do have siblings ,even if they are not fully related to you?" He asked me."Yes sir." I answered him."How many siblings do you have?" He asked."Two , an older brother and a younger sister,"I told him. I don't know if I should even call them siblings, they are a thorn in my flesh."I am not close to them." I added, I didn't want him thinking I have any family that I can
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 29: Familiar faces.
I looked thoughtfully at Ivan.He must have an ulterior motive for wanting me to go out and buy coffee for him."What are you planning to do in that silly head of yours?" I asked him and he scowled."What did you just say?" He asked me angrily."I came to work and you know that I am the only one driving Mr to Dominic around for a while ,so I will get the hang of working for him,so I need to be at the company all the time, so if you need to drink coffee ,go and buy the damn coffee yourself or you go and make it yourself." I told him nicely as I clicked my tongue in annoyance and continued scrolling through my phone.I don't know why he came to bother me this early morning. I am no longer dealing with Erick's snide remark,now I have to deal with Ivan.I felt a bang on the side of my head and a book fell beside me on the couch, I looked at the book and I slowly turned to look at Ivan who was glaring at me.He threw a book at me?I knew that I should not react to what he did, he was tr
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 30: Sick.
The ringing alarm woke me up.I had to hastily take my phone from the nightstand and turn off the alarm as I groaned in pain. It was five am already, what was I supposed to do?I took a deep breath as I laid back on the bed. I don't know why I woke up with a splitting headache this morning.I had a small fever yesterday ,but I shook it off as if nothing, seeing as the weather was so hot yesterday.I was glad that today was Saturday and it was an off day for us ,so I can rest easy knowing that I wasn't working today, pay day is almost here. I don't want anything to ruin my happiness when I receive my salary.It was still early to request for Miriam to help me get some drugs ,I would just wait till it gets brighter.I couldn't fall asleep again due to the headache and the only thing I could do was to take the picture frame of the image of Dora and I.I looked at her delicate face and admired the dress she was wearing, with a smile on my face.I was about to fall asleep again when I
