"Ahhh, you are here, Miss Lisa," she patted my shoulder and looked at her husband.
"This is the amazing tutor I was talking about."
Err... amazing tutor, she said? Today is my second day... I blushed and looked away when the two of them looked at me.
"Oh really? Thanks." He stood up to shake my hand, surprising me. I'm surprised not all rich people are rude... Timothy's parents were very rude, especially his younger sister.
"Ahhh... don't say that, I didn't do anything."
He chuckled and sat back. "He finally agreed to study business, thanks to you."
Ahh, ohh... I'm not surprised since I helped him. It's our deal though, but hearing it felt different. His parents were happy and even proud of me... with that, I'll be able to secure this for six months and receive my extra bonus.
Mrs Donovan smiled. "Well, he's in and all prepared. Please see me before you leave."
I bowed and left happily. At least she will reward me for working hard to change her son. That happiness vanished the moment I reached his door. I took a deep breath and opened it.
There he was, staring at his textbook with a frown. He... he looked dangerous whenever he was very serious. He will be a tough CEO in the future.
He looked up immediately when he noticed me. I quickly looked away.
"Good morning, Mr Kelvin," trying hard to get out the kiss in my head! Those soft lips and hot tongue.
Why am I even like this? Something that isn't possible.
'Stop thinking about this, Lisa. You are the worst comparison to him. You are older and divorced. In fact, you can't give him a child!! Infertile... don't ruin his life with your carelessness.'
Tears filled my eyes. It's funny how the insults I gave myself hurt me. Infertile? It's the memory I buried deep inside my brain. Maybe if I force it out, it will help me come back to my senses.
"Miss Lisa?" His voice snapped me out. I didn't even realise I was now sitting in front of him. Gosh! he really called my name?
"Ohhh... I... I just remembered something bad. How was your night?"
"Very well."
So obedient, that's weird. I'm used to his rude side.
"That's good to hear. Let's start studying. I'm starting with an introduction to business studies."
He picked up his pen and started writing. I looked at the way he writes in admiration. His long and slim fingers are very smooth... then I glanced at his neck and lips. Didn't he remember what happened the previous night?
I'm expecting him to apologise for kissing me! I gritted my teeth as I forced myself to move further. He paid full attention. I taught him enough things he should know for a day.
I glanced at his lips again... oh nope! This isn't appropriate. Why would I fall for someone I knew recently? Well, I've explained what happened. It wouldn't be this way if he didn't kiss me... even grabbed my ass!
Our eyes met while I was staring at him... he caught me sneaking a gaze at him?
"Ahh... I'm thinking of what to give you as an assignment."
"Really?" He raised a brow. "But you told me to mark page three for the assignment."
"Ahh... okay, I'm just testing you," I chuckled. "I want to know whether you're paying attention or not."
He nodded seriously. "Okay, I understand everything."
I swallowed hard and grabbed my bag. "Okay, see you tomorrow."
I quickly turned around and walked faster towards the door, opened it, and ran out, breathing heavily. I shook my head. "Ahh... there is a problem."
I knew how happy I was when I got this job, not thinking I'm better than those who lost, but because it chose me. I remembered Mrs Donovan wanted to see me. "Oh right..." distraction will do!
......
Sitting in front of her, she clapped and two maids rushed towards her. "Miss Lisa, what would you like to eat?" she asked sweetly.
Eat?
"Ohh...that... never mind, Mrs Donovan, I'm fine with water." I don't even have the appetite.
"Are you shy?" she giggled.
I quickly shook my head. I don't want to offend her at all, she's a very good person.
"I'm fine, ma'am. I don't have the appetite, but I'll definitely take any drinks."
She nodded and whispered to them. They nodded and left. I've been wondering what she wants to ask me.
I pinched myself and forced a smile. "Thanks so much for the warm welcome... I'm wondering why you want to see me."
She chuckled and waited for the maids to serve us the wine.
"Nothing, just that I'm celebrating my son's recovery."
"Ohhh." I nodded but frowned. "Was he sick?"
She burst into laughter and shook her head. "Oh no, he wasn't. But I've been wondering what you did to make him listen to you. You don't mind telling me?"
I laughed nervously. Didn't I tell her before I asked for permission? That I wanted to take him to a bar? Why... Why did she ask me again?
"I told you, ma'am. I said I would take him to a bar to pour out his emotions."
She looked at me for a while. "Why are you lying to me, Miss Lisa?"
I looked at her in displeasure. No doubt, she already knew the truth. I'm glad I hadn't touched the wine, or else I would be more embarrassed.
She chuckled. "I already knew you were up to something the moment you asked for that offer."
I nodded. "So you asked your men to follow us. I expected that." I already thought of her doing it but just prayed she wouldn't stop us.
"What I hate most is lying. You took him to whom I forbade him to see," she paused. "Now you see the reason why she's dangerous for my son."
I nodded. "I'm very sorry..." I quickly stood up to beg her more. I didn't know she would be upset, but she quickly stood up and made me sit back down, sitting beside me.
"Ahh no, don't do that. I don't want you to think otherwise. That's why I'm offering you drinks. My men recorded what you told him," she gave me a knowing smile.
I looked surprised and quickly looked away in embarrassment.
"I asked them to come back immediately."
I sighed in relief. They didn't know when he hugged me! Or else, how would I cope with that!!
"You are a good mother. Your children will be proud of you..." The world seemed to stop the moment she said that...
My children....
