Loving My Billionaire Brother

"Valerie, clean the house and fetch water. I will be back soon" my aunty said as she stepped out of the house leaving me alone with Tiana.

"Valerie!!!" I scramble to my feet immediately I hear her scream shivering. I walk slowly up the stairs to her room as I repeatedly ask myself what I have done wrong again.

"Valerie?" she slaps me on my face," I thought I ask you to clean my room, why the mess?"

"I'm sorry, aunty said I clean the sitting room that's why I couldn't clean your room on time" I knelt on the floor as I pleaded with her not to beat me.

"Will you stand up and get to work immediately" I scramble to my feet as I search around for the broom and mop.

I took the broom to sweep the floor, then later used the mop to clean. And I arranged her clothes neatly into her closet.

I heard her opening the door for someone, and she was talking to that person in the sitting room. I quickly fold her clothes neatly into her closet. Then walk into the kitchen to shred the vegetables for dinner.

I was in the process of shredding the vegetables when I heard her scream my name, I dropped the vegetables and ran to her room.

"Yes, Tiana you call me," I said immediately I walked into her room. She was talking to a man in his mid-twenties, with long brown hair and a pointed nose. He winks at me while I ignore him completely

"Will you be a good girl and get juice for Lorenzo here" She smiles as she waves me off.

I walk slowly back to the kitchen wondering what I have done to deserve this.

My name is Valerie William and I'm 20 years old. Both of my parents died in a car accident when I was seven years old. Since then, I've been living with my aunt Clara. When my parents were still alive aunt Clara used to be very nice to me and very loving but now she seems like she could barely stand the sight of me...

"Valerie!! Are you sick, where is the juice? Don't let me come in there" Tiana's loud voice broke me from me thought as I rushed took juice from the fridge and a glass cup to her guest.

The guest in question was checking me out in an ungodly way and licking his lips in the process. I don't even know what Tiana sees in all the men that she brought home and to think that aunt Clara is in support of her promiscuous lifestyle.

"Here is it," I said to her, dropping the tray with the wine on the center table and turn to leave them alone.

"Come back here, stupid girl is that how you treat an important guest in my mom's house" She calls back to me as I turn surprisingly to her.

"I don't understand," I said looking at her confused. She wanted juice and that is it in front of her, what else again.

"Why should you understand? How many time do I have to tell you that you are a slave in this house, it's high time you start behaving like one"

"But-----"

"Now get down on your knees, pick up the juice and give it to Lorenzo here like the perfect maid that you are," She said, cutting me off completely.

I stood gasping at her shocked, surely she's joking. Lorenzo was smiling and smirking like the idiot he is, thank God I didn't allow the swine that he is to date me then.

"What do you mean by me kneeling to give Lorenzo juice. Can't he get it by himself? Surely his hands are not paining him right?" I said as I folded my hands together glaring at her. If it was any other person I would have done that but this is Lorenzo, the guy that I hate most in the world. I'm only tolerating him because of her.

"Wow!! You now have the guts to talk back at me right?" She screams as she charges off to me.

"Mom must hear what you just said to me," She said, slapping me on my face. The slap was nothing compared to what my aunt will do to me if she finds out.

I quickly went down on my knees and did exactly what she asked me to do while Lorenzo smirked triumphantly at me. I ignored him as I pleaded with Tiana not to report me to her mom.

"Ok fine I will not say anything just go back to the kitchen, your presence here disgusts me," She said as I stood up and went back to the kitchen happy that she won't report me to her mom.

I was almost through with my work before aunt Clara will be back. I quickly walk to the sitting room and check the long list of chores aunt Clara left for me.

"I only have two left," I said smiling to myself happy that I won't be receiving any beating today.

I ran to put on the washing machine to get the laundry done before making dinner when fate decided that he had another plan for me.

"Valerie darling!" Tiana's sweet voice called out to me as she descended the stairs. Lorenzo has gone. I didn't even notice when he left, yes that's how much I hate him.

I walked out from the basement to meet her in the sitting room. " You call me Tiana." I said to her immediately I saw her. She has changed her dress again, this is the third dress she will be wearing today. Anyway, I don't blame her when she is not the one washing them.

"I was thinking," She said, looking at me seriously, " instead of using the washing machine to wash clothes, why don't you use your hands? It seems the washing doesn't wash the cloth clean anymore"

"What!" I exclaim in shock. She turned to walk out of the room ignoring whatever I was saying.

Sometimes I feel like strangling her and to think that I'm older than her and she treats me this way. I wish my parents were still alive then we would have been better and I will probably be in the university right now.

I walked back to the basement and stood gasping at the mountain load of clothes that Tiana said I should wash with my hands. I quickly got to work and before one hour thirty minutes later I was done.

My bones were protesting as I quickly stood up to sun dry them and went into the kitchen to get started with dinner since it was past six already.

The food was almost ready when I heard my aunt's car drove into the garage. I heave a sigh of relief glad that I was through with all of my duties.

"Valerie!" My aunt shouted from outside of the house as I rush to meet her " this stupid girl are you telling me that you didn't hear me come in"

"I'm sorry aunty" I apologize kneeling. I just hope I wouldn't be receiving beating today again my backaches.

"Sorry for yourself, stupid girl" She hisses as she opens the car door to bring down the groceries.

"Take this inside the house," She said, handing them to me.

"Where is my daughter?" She asked me walking into the house.

"She is in her room, aunty " I replied on the verge of tears.

I just wish she will care for me as she does to Tiana. I miss my mom so much. I can't remember the last time I was hugged, I don't even have friends cos aunt Clara wouldn't approve of it.

I walk into the house with the heavy bag of groceries dragging it behind me with tears pouring down my face.

Sometimes I feel like running away but where to, I don't even know anyone here. We moved back to Nigeria after my parents died in Atlanta. I'm just like a nobody amid people, nobody wants to relate with me because they all think that I'm a curse that is why both of my parents died the same day.

"I hope the dinner is served, Valerie " My aunty loud voice calls out to me as I quickly dish the food and set the table then I went to call her and Tiana to come to eat.

"Mom can you guess what happened today," Tiana said looking at her mom. My heart pounded in my chest cos I already know what she wants to say. I rush my food fast because once she starts beating me I won't be able to eat again.

"Why dear, what happened?" Aunt Clara said her voice laced with love for her daughter. The love that I have always prayed for someone to show me too.

"Valerie talked back at me," She said crying as the tears poured down her eyes. I mentally rolled my eyes at her because she is such a drama queen.

"She did what?" My aunt screams as she slaps me with the back of her hands.

"Yee! My eyes" I scream as I stand up running to the kitchen to wash my eyes, she slaps me with the hand she was using to eat.

"You ingrate, when your parents left they didn't leave any of their property for you. I took you in and sent you to school and now you have the gut to talk back to my daughter. How dare you!!" She screams in the kitchen while I brace myself for the beating that was to come next.

If only I knew what the universe has in store for me, I would have probably have begged God to take me along with my parents. Sometimes I blame that young man who saved me from the car that night.

She storms off to my room as soon as I walk back to the dining table. Tiana was busy pulling out her tongue at me, mocking me while I looked on ignoring her before she screamed and told her mom that I wanted to kill her.

She came downstairs carrying a bag I recognize as my bag with clothes in it. What is she planning to do again? Is she sending me off to school?.

I looked on as she went back to my room, she came back down with another of my bags. That is when it finally dawned on me that she was chasing me out of her house.

"Aunty please forgive me, I will not do that again I promise you" I begged her on my knees holding her legs crying.

She pushes me off " You are leaving my house today, I cannot train a child that will not have respect for me or my child "

"Aunty please, forgive me I don't have anywhere to go. You are the only one I know in Nigeria please" I pleaded with her as she put all of my clothes on the floor and removed the one she bought for me.

"I bought all of these with my money, you cannot go with it when you come into my house, you were with nothing today you will be leaving with nothing too," She said, packing the clothes she bought for me back into the bag and took it upstairs.

Tiana looked frightened, she never believed it would get to this level " Are you happy now?" I asked her as the tears flowed down my eyes.

Where will I go ? I don't know anyone in New York. She has torn my visa some years back when I planned to escape. Now I'm stuck here with no hope of tomorrow.

I quickly went back on my knees immediately I saw her descending the stairs " Aunty please, don't do this to me. I have nowhere to go".

"I don't care Valerie. Anywhere you like you go, just leave my house these minute you disgust me. You murderer " She screams pushing me out of the door with the little clothes she gave me.

"Aunty please" She closes the door on me and walks upstairs. Tiana stood gasping at the closed-door contemplating whether she should open it for me. I watch her from the window as she turns and follows her mom upstairs.

I sat down on the porch and cried my eyes out " Valerie weeping won't bring you a house, it will be better if you go find somewhere to sleep for tonight" I said to myself as I stood up and wiped my tears with the end of my gown.

I stood up and walked into the night with no destination in mind but the determination to get someplace to sleep for tonight.

Walking down the road where everyone was rushing to get home early before the heavy downpour of rain will descend on them since the cloud has darkens dangerously. Valerie Williams was among the people rushing but Valerie was not rushing anywhere, she stood at the pedestrian crossing waiting for the cars to stop so she could cross over to the other side.

The cars had finally stopped, Valerie joined the long queue of people waiting to cross the road. Safely on the other side, she started walking all over again with no destination in mind. The street was dark due to the rain about to fall except for a few street lights that were scattered around.

She bumped into a middle aged woman who was returning from the market. The bags of groceries she was carrying fell to the floor and the content scattered around, Valerie bent down to pick the groceries as she profusely apologized to the woman.

"Young lady! Can't you see the way " the woman scolded her as her maid rushed over to help her pack the groceries off the floor.

The event of the day coupled with the woman's words brought tears to Valerie's eyes as she sobbed uncontrollably on the sidewalk of the street.

The woman was shocked, she kept wondering what she must have said to the girl to make her cry but she came back blank.

"Young girl! Stop crying!. I'm sorry if I've offended you " She apologized as she dragged the girl up from the floor.

"I'm sorry ma'am " Valerie apologizes once again as she turns to walk away without glancing at the woman.

"Wait!" The woman called to her, her heart breaking at the lonesome figure of the young girl. Valerie stops and turns to regard the woman questionably.

"What's wrong? Why were you crying?" The woman asked her as she walked close to her and hugged her. Valerie stood shocked, she couldn't remember the last time she was hugged and now from a total stranger.

"I don't have anywhere to go, " Valerie opens up to the woman after some time.

"Why? What happened to where you were before?" The woman asked looking at the girl who was homeless at such a young age.

"I've been staying with my aunt and my cousin but due to some misunderstanding she sent me out, never to come back again"

By now the rain has started drizzling making everyone run to a nearby shelter. Valerie and the woman were not left out as they both scrambled into the woman's car which was parked very close to the mart.

The driver opened the door for them as she got into the car with the woman beside her while the maid sat in front with the driver.

"You said your aunt sent you out right?" The woman asked Valerie again as she nodded, clearly not understanding why someone in their right mind would send a young girl out of the house so late in the night.

"Yes ma'am " Valerie replied as she tried to forced back gets that threatened to surface again.

"It's okay. I wanted to hire another maid anyway but now that you are here you can do it " The woman said shrugging as she looked out of the window.

The smile spread across Valerie face as she look at the woman God had miraculously sent to her"Thank you ma'am "

"You are welcome, dear," The woman replied back just as the driver punched in the code to the big gate of the Thompson's mansion. They drove into the mansion.

Valerie stood gasping at the big white mansion in front of her, two other maids putting on uniforms walked out to help offload the groceries from the car.

"Maria," The woman called an older lady who was standing at the car giving instructions to the other maids.

"Yes, Mrs. Thompson" Maria replied as she walked up to where we stood near to the fountain.

"This is Valerie. She's the new maid, guide her through everything and the rules" Mrs Thompson said, she turns to look at me one last time before walking into the mansion.

***

We are currently in the maid's quarters, Maria has left after introducing two other maids including the one I saw with Mrs. Thompson at the mart.

"You are so beautiful " Audrey said, she was my bedmate and was also the one with Mrs. Thompson when we met.

"Thank you" I replied shyly as I unpacked the little clothes I managed to take with me.

"Is it true that your aunt sent you out of the house?" Lisa asked. I nodded as I couldn't speak due to the heavy lump of tears in my throat.

"I don't know why aunties are so difficult " Gia lament bitterly

"Don't worry everything is going to be alright. Mrs. Thompson is a good woman, she will treat you right as long as you do your job well " Lisa said, she was the older one among us apart from Maria. After I had finished unpacking, we all showered and retired for the night.

I woke up the following morning at 6a.m. Being the one to do all the chores at my aunt's I was quite used to waking up early.

"Good morning Val, sleep well?" Audrey asked, she was up earlier than I and she was already dressed in her maid uniform.

"Yes thank you " I smiled at her as I got out of bed to do my daily routine of brushing my teeth, bathing then dressing in my maid uniform. I walked out of the room to see that everyone had a bath and were all waiting for Maria.

"I can't believe we'll be having a permanent roaster " Lisa exclaimed happily, her short red hair was pulled back with a scarf as Mrs. Thompson frowned against letting hair down during working hours.

"I just hope I'm permanently assigned to young master Victor's room" Gia said with a dreamy look on her face. Looking at her one could guess that she has a crush on the young master.

"You still haven't gotten out of this, your foolish crush " Audrey frowned at her while I watched them fascinated. This is going to be hell of an interesting week!.

Maria walked in holding a notebook and a pen " Good morning everyone!" She greeted us as her eyes scan everyone in the room before finally resting on me. She smiled proudly.

"I see you are already getting used to the routine around here. Right?" She asked me, smiling.

"Yes ma'am " I replied bowing my head shyly.

"Just call me Maria. Now to the duties" She said as everyone quieted down to listen to their roles. I could feel the tension in the room.

"Audrey and I are to handle the master's bedroom and the study. That is, everything that has to do with the second floor from serving of food to the cleaning " She paused to look at Audrey who nodded at her satisfied with a smile on her face which didn't quite reach her eyes.

"Lisa and Gia, you are to handle the kitchen and the cleaning of the first floor from serving of food to anything else on the first floor" She pauses again to look at them. Lisa was excited being a foodie, she gets to eat whenever she wants.

Gia was not happy, she has always wanted to be the young master's personal maid. She nodded reluctantly at Maria with a sour expression on her face. Maria continues as she looks at me smiling.

"Valerie, you are young master Victor's personal maid"

"What?" They all exclaimed while Gia looked at me with a jealous expression.

"That means, you are not to take part in any cleaning around the house. Your duties are on the third floor and everything that Victor's need" Maria continues smoothly ignoring their protests. I nodded at her when she was through. I hate the idea of having to wait on someone being Tiana's personal maid was worse and now this....

"That's so unfair" Gia exclaimed bitterly "Why does she get to be his maid when she just joined yesterday?"

"Why don't you go askl Mrs. Thompson? " Maria replied as she turned to walk out " Everyone to your duties now," she shouted as we all scrambled out with our brush and duster.

"Valerie come let me show you to young master's bedroom "Maria called to me. She guides me up the stairs to the third floor. There were different drawings of a boy with blue eyes. That's rare, I've never seen anyone with blue eyes before. Maria stops in front of a door and turns to me.

"This is young master's bedroom. Luckily for you he's not around. You come in here everyday to clean, mop and sweep the hallway. Okay"

"Yes Maria" I reply

"Then after sweeping make sure you dust the paintings" Maria said as she turned to go.

I counted the paintings on the wall, they were fifty all together. That's much right?, but this is a piece of cake compared to what I had to do at my aunt's house everyday.

I opened the door to young master's bedroom and exclaimed at the size of the room. It was bigger than my aunt's house together. I can spend a whole day cleaning this room.

I immediately got to work, from dusting to cleaning and washing of the bathtub. I was in the middle of dusting the paintings when Maria came to call me that Mrs. Thompson wanted to see me.

I drop the trash can and brush, and turn to follow her. Walking into the sitting room I was surprised to see her sitting beside a man who I assume to be her husband. This was the first time I would see him, he was agile and handsome with brown eyes and dark hair while Mrs. Thompson has blue eyes. I guess that's where the young master got his eyes from.

"Come here Valerie. I want you to meet someone" Mrs. Thompson call out to me immediately she noticed me standing at the stairs. I rushed to meet her with a smile on my face.

"Come on, sit down" She said as I sat down across from them bowing my head timidly.

"This is my husband Mr. Daniel Thompson " She said introducing me to her husband who was busy on his phone.

"Nice to meet you sir" I greeted him with a smile, he smiles back at me.

"Nice to meet you too Valerie. You are a good girl, how old are you? "

"I'm twenty years sir"

"Good. And please drop the sir, call me Daniel" He replied and went back to typing on his phone.

"Has Maria shown you to Victor's room?" Mrs. Thompson asked looking at me.

"Yes ma'am. She has"

"Good. I want you to take him as your brother since both of you are in the same age range. I wanted to adopt you since I've always wanted a girl child but my lawyer said you are long past adoption since you are already an adult. But in my heart you will always be the daughter I never had" Mrs. Thompson said as she hugged me close, tears welled up in my eyes as I fought to keep it at bay.

I never believed that someone could love me so much as to want to adopt me apart from my parents " Thank you so much ma'am ".

"You're welcome dear. Have you eaten?" She asked me as she sat back down on the couch opposite me.

"Not yet"

"Go into the kitchen and pick whatever you want to eat" She said waving me off to the kitchen. I walk in to see Lisa and Gia eavesdropping on us. Lisa smiles at me as she dishes my food while Gia was frowning and glaring dagger at me.

"Did you know Mrs. Thompson from anywhere before?" Gia asked looking at me

"No," I reply taking the food from Lisa and sat down before taking a spoonful into my mouth.

"She seems unnecessarily kind to you and that's so unfair" Gia laments bitterly

"I'm surprised too," I replied, smiling happily to myself.

"What is there to be happy about?" Gia shouted at me as she dropped the broom she was holding and walked out angrily. I looked at Lisa shocked.

"Don't mind her Valerie. She can be very dramatic sometimes " Lisa said as I shrugged and went back to eating my food.

Thirty minutes later I was back in young master's bedroom dusting and cleaning his portraits on the wall in the hallway. It was getting dark by now and I just couldn't wait for night to fall to rest my weary bones.

"This is where you are," Audrey exclaimed. I turn to see her standing at the stairs looking at me surprised.

"Yes. Where else will I be ?" I asked her rolling my eyes at her for asking me a stupid question.

"Come on, it's time for bed" she said dragging me down the stairs to the maid's quarter while I protested furiously.

" But I'm not yet through with cleaning the portraits"

" You don't have to finish everything today. Moreover, young master won't be around still weekends. You can always do it before then" She said as I sat down on the bed defeatedly. Gia and Lisa were already snoring while Audrey and I chatted still the wee hours of the morning before we decided to sleep.

It's been three weeks that I've spent with the Thompson's and I've never regretted a day out of it. My days start with the usual routine of cleaning the young master's bedroom. I've not yet met the young master, though I like it so much. I wish I will never have to see him cos from what I've heard about him, he's not a likeable person.

"Thank God today is Saturday. No classes for me" Audrey screams, getting out of bed sluggishly. I smiled at her. I've also started going for dance classes at Thompson's Entertainment where young master work as the CEO. I love it so much and I can't wait to resume back on Monday.

The door opens and Gia rushes in panting breathlessly obviously, she has been running but why?

"Guess what?" She said as she tried to catch her breath looking from Audrey to me and then back to Lisa smiling excitedly.

"I'm not good at guessing so count me out" I said as I sat back down on the bed. She scoffs at me and turns to look at Lisa and Audrey expectantly.

"Well, Mrs. Thompson has decided to increase our salary" Audrey said, I thought so too. She's in love with anything money.

"No? that's not it" Gia said disappointed that no one could guess right

" It's about food then," Liza said Jumping up excitedly. Gosh!she likes food.

"Still a No" Gia said "None of you can guess the good news?" She asked with surprise.

"Can you tell us already" I said looking at her"The suspense is killing us here".

"Okay fine. I'll tell you guys" She said laughing,"Young master is coming back today".

"So?" We all asked her clearly annoyed that this was what she wanted to say from the beginning.

We all disperse to our various duties leaving her standing shocked in the middle of our room. She recovered fast as she joined Lisa in the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the home.

While I went to the third floor to start my daily routine. I have just finished cleaning the bathroom and I was so tired, I decided to rest a bit on the bed. It was so soft that I soon slept off.

"What's going on here?" A voice screams as I scramble out of the bed and knelt down on the floor pleading with the person without looking up with tears in my eyes. I couldn't help remembering those times when Tiana used to beat me for sleeping on her bed.

"Why were you screaming?" A man said as he entered the room, he looked from the lady to me on the floor crying my eyes out.

"I met her sleeping on your bed" The lady said with hatred laced her voice.

"That does not call for this Leslie." He said as he turn to look at me" stand up and go to your quarters I'II call you when I need you"

I look up at him to see blue eyes staring at me. I gasp, he's so beautiful up close. I stared into his eyes which were drawing me in to explore their depth, I leaned in to him closing my eyes.

"Are you deaf? Get out of my room now" He shouted. I scramble out of the room without taking anything with me embarrassed.

I ran into our room panting, thankful that no one was there to see me. I couldn't believe I was expecting him to kiss me. His eyes, gosh!, they are so beautiful and they are the one drawing me in.

"Val, remember he's your brother that's what Mrs. Thompson said" I gulped loudly as I lay down on the bed panting as I tried to bring my breathing back to normal. I can't believe that I wanted him to kiss me.

What will he think of me now? Stupid girl....

The door opened and Audrey walked in, she stopped short when she saw my eyes red and puffy. My cheeks are painted in red. Gosh!I'm so embarrassed right now.

"Are you okay?" She rushed to me and checked all over my body for any signs of pain. I huff at her being so dramatic though I love it so much. I've never had anyone do that to me.

"Of course I'm fine "I replied, avoiding her eyes.

"Then why is your face red and puffy?" She asked me clearly not believing that I'm fine.

"I was_________" Gia and Lisa walk in cutting my sentence short as I look down embarrassed.

"What is wrong with her?"Gia said whispering to Audrey.

"I don't know yet. She was in the middle of telling me before you two barge in and interrupted us"Audrey said glaring at Gia, who head over to her bed and sat down as she stuck out her tongue at Audrey

"Okay, we all here what is wrong with you?" Lisa said she was also seated on her bed.

I______ young master got me sleeping on his bed" I said putting my face down from embarrassment.

I expected them to shout at me for sleeping on the young master's bed but not for them to laugh. I look at all of them with surprised

"Is that why you were crying? Gosh! You are such a baby?" Gia said as she looked at me weirdly and walked out.

Lisa looked at me too, laughing and shaking her head as she walked out too. What's so funny that they are all laughing?

"What is going on? Aren't you guys supposed to shout at me" I asked Audrey who remained in the room with me shocked.

"Why should we do that?" She looked at me amused with what I just said.

"I thought_______"

"Don't. We were all guilty of what you did today on our first day too. On my first day at work, I slept off in Mr and Mrs Thompson's bed" She said shruggling like it was a natural thing to do.

"What?!"I exclaim in shock.

"Yes. Anyway let's leave that. Hope young master didn't say anything?"

"No," I said, putting my face down as I remembered his curt words to me when I tried to kiss him.

"But, there was a lady with him who screamed at me" I continued looking at her wondering who that lady was.

"Oh! I see you've met Leslie''Audrey said, folding her clothes into her bag. She stays with her mom very far from the Thompson's estate. She goes home on weekends to visit her mom unlike the rest of us who don't have anyone to visit.

"Leslie?" I ask her, surprised.

"Yes, she is young master's girlfriend"

Oh!" I exclaim sadly. I didn't know he had a girlfriend.

"Anyway I_____" The land phone ringing cut whatever Audrey wanted to say short as she went to pick it up.

"Hello" She called into the phone.

"Okay. Yes, she is here" She said looking at me.I look at her curious to know who called.

"Okay.Yes sir, I will tell her"Audrey said and hung up.

She turns to look at me with a forced smile "that was young master, he said you should get him a glass of juice and next time you should be the one answering the call" She said as she picked up her bag to leave.

Gosh! I hate him, he's so commanding. To think that I nearly kissed him a while ago. Oh! My virgin lips.

Audrey looked at me curiously and hesitantly like she wanted to say something else but she hugged me instead "I'm going to miss you Valerie. Do take care of yourself"

"I will miss you too. Bye" I said as I stood and watched her walk out with her bag. I walk into the kitchen to get young master his juice. I walk up to his room and knock as I braced myself for what is going to happen next...

***

Victor

I felt so disappointed immediately I heard Audrey voice on the phone. I was curious to hear her voice that I picked up the phone and dial the maid quarter's number without thinking.

Now I'm on edge waiting for her to come to me. I can't believe no woman has ever made me feel like this in my twenty-four years except her. "Is this love? Who are you kidding Victor, this is pure lust when you are satisfied you will throw her away like the trash she is. Yes,this is exactly what this is" I said nodding to myself...

"Come in" I called out to her immediately I heard a knock on the door. Thank God, Leslie has gone out for shopping with Mom. She walked in carrying the tray of juice as I finally looked at her.

She is on the short side with long black hair which was tied at the back with a band. She has brown eyes that pierce deep into my soul.

I avoided her eyes that seemed to see through me as I cleared my throat "Put the tray over there" I said pointing over to a table, she walked over there and bent down to drop the tray gently on the table giving me a glimpse of her backside. She turned to leave as I called her back.

"Wait?" She turned to look at me with a questionable look in her eyes.

I run my hands through my hair "I'm sorry about earlier. I would like to know you more since you are my personal maid" She continues looking at me curiously.

"Why" She finally said as my breath hitched in my chest. Gosh!, her voice is just like an angel but I'm not planning to tell her that.

"Well, obviously my mom likes you. She couldn't stop praising you. It takes a very long time for my mom to warm up to someone, so I will really want to know you" Victor well done for babbling like an idiot.

Wow!! an award winning actor doesn't know how to get a maid into his bed. Nice!!

"I'm sorry but I don't want to know someone like you" She said as walk out of me.

"Really? Did she just walk out of me?" I screamed as I threw my hand up in the hair, frustrated.

"Obviously yes! I just saw that" Oscar smirk happily. I ran up to where I put my laptop, I've forgotten that I was on a video call with Oscar before she came in now he's not going to stop teasing me.

"You didn't see anything, Oscar," I said as I walked back and sat down on my study chair.

"Really?" He looked at me frowning playfully" But what to do, I did see you babbling and embarrassing yourself like an idiot you are".

"Oh! You are calling me an idiot. You are more of an idiot because you have never got under a skirt before" I said, teasing him of his Virginity.

"You are just angry that she refused your offer of a quick sex. I wish I was in New York right now I would have asked her to marry me immediately" He said fanning himself with his hands dramatically I rolled my eyes at him

"You are such a drama king,Oscar".
