Natalia's POVI dislike my family and the anger that I have for this family is growing everyday, especially my mother after she stole from me.I don't understand how she could treat me this way. My father has suddenly started blaming me for putting them in this position again.I don't know what Thomas and my father talked about but after their conversation Dad has become angry at everything and everyone, especially me and I stay out of his way as much as I can.I don't want him lashing out on me for someone's crimes.My mum on the other hand refused to talk about what happened that day or go and give back the expensive clothes she bought with my money and she also refused to give me any money , so I was stuck in square one trying to sell my clothes again.I wonder how a mother can steal from her child when she knew I was helpless.I dared not talk to my Dad about Mom taking my money to buy clothes because he would lash out on me or ask me how I got the money.I didn't want to tell an
Natalia's POVI glared at Grace, why was she doing this when I was already in a bad position now?Was she now looking down on me because my family was having money problems?I scoffed as I shook my head, she needs to know her place, she is just a stupid maid and she shouldn't try to annoy me or she would get fired.Has she forgotten that I have the power to fire her?If I make a request she shouldn't argue and do what I asked for,how dare she refuse to give me her phone?"What do you mean you can't give me your phone,just give me a bloody phone, I need to make a call!" I shouted at her but Grace was unfazed by my shouting, I saw her sigh."I forgot to bring my phone to work today because I was rushing to come to work early, that's why I said I can't give you my phone." She replied."So of all days for you to forget your phone it had to be today?" I asked her.How does she expect me to believe such a lie? She was clearly lying to me and it made me wonder what she was hiding from me.Th
Natalia's POVWhy was Logan on the floor?"I didn't pour any water on the floor. I don't know if you can see anymore." I told him."What did you say?" Logan yelled as he tried standing up again but slipped and fell on his butt again and I chuckled."Natalia, who sent you to mop the floor? Where is Grace? You want to kill us in this house?" Logan asked."Grace ! Grace! Grace, come here! " He yelled."Grace has quit her job, don't bother calling her, I am now the one in charge of cleaning the house." I told Logan who scoffed."Why did Grace quit her job?" Logan asked in surprise.I was surprised as well to learn that Grace wants to quit her job because I never expected her to do so.She was so loyal to my family."Who told you to clean the house, why can't they hire a maid?" Logan asked me."Logan, please stop bothering me. I need to mop this whole house." I said as I continued moping."So pouring water on the floor is mopping the house , Natalia stop mopping the floor before you make s
Thomas's POVI was still waiting for the right time to start my next plan.Mr Gabriel must have realized by now that no one would help him so it was only a matter of time before I got what I wanted and got them out of my way.But right now I wanted to surprise Grace and ask her out on a date as it will be our first date. I don't want to wear a suit or no more where I just wanted to get something different, something new.I wasn't working that weekend so I decided to go shopping.I got ready to go shopping and opened my door when I walked out and was heading towards the elevator when I saw my neighbor opening her door and coming out of her apartment as well.I clicked my tongue in annoyance and wondered how I could avoid her. I can't just pretend I didn't see her because she must say something to me.Both of us meeting when coming out of our door has happened so many times I don't know if I should call this coincidence anymore."Oh are you going out can I join you?" She asked with a sm
Thomas POVTimothy lunged towards me with a clenched fist as he wanted to punch my stomach but I grabbed onto his hand stopping him."Let go of me!" He yelled as he glared at me with murderous eyes as he tried punching me with his other hand and I wanted to grab onto his hand but I wasn't quick enough and I missed so I jumped backwards as I let go of him and his punch missed.I sighed in exhaustion,I just wanted to rest today, can't I have a moment of rest?Timothy was breathing heavily as his face was hardened.I don't know if there was any use talking to him but I really don't want to fight anyone right now.The only reason I went for self defense classes and learnt boxing was to protect myself, I rather not get involved in an unreasonable fight."Look Timothy or whatever you call yourself, I don't even know who you are and you want to fight me?" I asked in disbelief.I wonder if I just can have a moment of peace to relax.Crazy people are at every corner waiting for the moment you
Thomas POVSometimes I wonder what is wrong with Oliver, is he actually my friend?I clicked my tongue in annoyance but said nothing,he can have a laugh."Welcome to the real world Thomas, this is what it feels like to have enemies." Oliver added as he sighed.I clicked my tongue in annoyance, he was laughing when I just told him some tried to shoot me."I don't think I did anything to have enemies, I am the nicest man I know." I replied and I heard Oliver scoff."That's what you think ,that's not what is on their mind." Oliver replied."Even if that is not what is on their mind, why would someone try to kill me because I don't actually know what I did wrong and I don't even know who tried to kill me." I shrugged.This was confusing, I have offended some people by telling them not to help Mr Gabriel's company but I don't think that's enough to want to kill me, I compensated them well when they agreed to my request and others were indebted to me so they naturally had to agree."Apart f
Thomas's POVGrace was reluctant to say anything.What was she so worried about?"If you want to know about Timothy, I have to begin from how we started dating and broke up for you to understand it better." Grace said."That's no problem, I was planning on staying here tonight." I reassured her."Everything was going well with my family. Timothy and I were high school sweethearts, but when my dad died .." Grace paused and sighed."My mum had always been a stay-at-home mom and she only worked part-time ,so when my Dad died it was hard for her to start working full time again and she had an accident in the past that affected her health, she shouldn't work without breaks." She paused."I decided to step up and help my mum. That's how I started working for Mr Gabriel's family and forgot about going to college," Grace paused again as I took the glass of water on the table and drank a bit from it before sighing."I was young and naive then, so I thought since Timothy had money and we loved
Thomas pov.I chuckled at Grace's words, she doesn't want to depend on me.But I want to take care of her and spoil her."You know you are so cute when you act stubborn." I pinched her cheek and she pouted."I sometimes depended on you while at Natalia's house, don't forget that, I am repaying my debts." I reminded her.I can remember sometimes Grace will get my drugs because I am sick with her own money,I don't forget good deeds,I always repay it. "Fine, just don't overdo it and I will start work after I find another job and I will pay you back. " Grace finally agreed."You won't pay me back and you won't be working until I have dealt with your ex boyfriend." I told her."What are you going to do?" She asked."I will just tell him to leave you alone, if he refuses…" I chuckled."Just leave the rest to me,don't discuss about you leaving your home at the apartment, send it as a text to your mother, pack a light bag so no one would know you are leaving and my driver will come to pick y
