Tempting the Billionaire and his heir

_

I had just arrived home when I heard the creaking sound of the door. I quickly turn around to catch my stubborn son trying to sneak in.

"And where the hell do you think you are going?!" I roared. He has been gone for days with no words of his whereabouts nor was he answering his phone and now he is back and behaving like nothing happened.

"My room of course, where else?" Nolan said nonchalantly which pisses me off more than anything, I hate when he behaves like this, like he has no care in the world.

"Great! Double great! You disappear for days and when you return you behave this way" I said exasperatedly, I was tired and frustrated at work already then this, to top his careless attitude and way of life.

"Did you see my calls?" I questioned.

"I did. And when someone doesn't answer your calls it means they don't want to talk to you which was embarrassing Dad, you kept on calling, you couldn't even get the hint" he said trying to walk past me and grabbed him by the shirt, pulling him close to me.

"I am still talking and you are going to listen to me" I managed to get out through clenched teeth.

"And I am done talking," Nolan replied, glaring at me.

"I see what you are turning out to be and that is why I came up with this decision, I am hiring a Nanny and a bodyguard for you" I said and he scoffed.

"You wish" he said and burst out into laughter.

"Is there any sign of jokes written on my face?" My statement seemed to have sounded real in his ears and got paused from his rancorous laughter.

"You can't do this to me!" He yelled, with how he was glaring at me one would assume his eyeballs were about to fall off its sockets.

"I can and I have, so get your shit together because if you keep on pulling more stunts so would I" I warned.

"That is the fucking problem with you, you always want to control everyone's life, no matter what you do, I would never bend to your wills!" He yelled and I laughed.

"I only have to control you because as each day goes by you are becoming more of an ass" I fired, glaring at him, I always have to clean the ness he leaves around just to not get our name tainted, the minutes I am done cleaning one of his mess, he moves to another.

"Oh stop with the flatter father, I am only becoming you after all the apple doesn't fall far from its tree" he kept on glaring at me, perhaps he thinks that would piss me off.

"This isn't the behavior of the future heir to the Brown Construction Inc. get your shits together because I wouldn't be around to clean them after you all the time" I said as calmly as I could when I know how pissed at his behavior I am.

"I already told you I have no interest in your successor, I have no interest in the company, you can't tell me what to do and I never asked you to clean after me. Why don't you let the media and the people see the kind of person that you are. A controlling freak!".

"And getting a bodyguard and a fucking Nanny wouldn't stop me and you know that" he smirked and I returned the gesture.

"I guess blocking your credit cards would" I said then walked out of the living room.

The bang in the living room which was a sign of his anger met my ears but I paid no mind to it.

ALEXA'S POV

"Babe, what was it you said you wanted to tell me?" I asked but Cody kept on peppering kisses on my neck and going down south.

"This is serious okay, stop it" I tried to push him away and at last I succeeded.

"I plan to break into the Brown's mansion" he said and I stared at him like he had developed two heads.

"I don't understand, is that what you want to tell me?" I questioned to be sure he wasn't playing one of his pranks on me but the serious expression on his face told me he was dead beat serious about what he had just said.

"No, Cody, that is a bad idea" I warned but he only smiled at me.

"It will only be a bad idea when we don't have a plan, I have a plan, not yet set though but once it is everything will sail well" he said and I shook my head.

"No, I don't want us to do this, I have a bad feeling about this" I cautioned but like the stubborn head that he is he wasn't listening.

"Come on babe, stop being a party pooper, in this case a robbery pooper, everything is going to turn out great and we would be fucking rich!" He exclaimed, joining his hands together like a little kid who has just been given a candy.

"Fine whatever, just don't get us caught" I sighed as I gave up the argument.

"I love you babe," he said and placed a kiss on my lips which brought a smile t~~~~o my face.

"I love you too"

Cody and I have been dating for three years now, well I am an orphan and Cody is like the only family that I have.

I guess I just have to believe him when he said everything was going to work out fine.

"What plans do you have?" I called out when I remembered he hadn't told me any of his plans yet.

"None yet, I just need to find a way to infiltrate the Brown's mansion. I mean if I can get in then robbing them wouldn't be difficult" he said and I nodded.

"I guess you will just have to work on one then" I sighed and rested back on the pillows.

"And that is where you come in, my love" he said and I quickly sat upright.

"What do you mean?" I asked in confusion._

ALEXA'S

Ever since Cody told me what his plans were, my mind keeps on going over the places. I mean I think his idea is crazy but what he added to it was crazier.

"Babe!!"

"Babe, come look at this!" Cody's urgent call snapped me out of my thoughts and I quickly moved to the direction I heard him calling me from.

"What is it?" I asked as I walked towards him.

"The Brown's are in need of workers. There is a vacancy up for some positions, this is what I have been waiting for" he yelled excitedly.

"So, you're going to apply?" I asked with an arched brow

"No, I can't possibly apply to be a Nanny or do any job in the Brown's mansion, it's too risky" he said and I rolled my eyes.

"Then what?" I asked.

"You. You would apply for the position of a Nanny and then provide the necessary information to us, you will be our eyes in there" he said

"What! You can't be serious" I said and looked at his face for a hint of mischief as I thought it was one of his jokes, but the expression he was wearing said he was dead serious. I don't think I can do this, I have assisted Cody and his friends a lot of times but I haven't done something like this before.

"I don't think I can do this, it's just too..." Cody placed his hands on my shoulder.

"Come on, we've discussed this already" he said and I sighed.

"I thought perhaps another idea could come up, you know but now I just can't..."

"Babe, trust me on this okay" he said and I sighed before nodding.

He did the necessary things for the application and it didn't take long before my cell phone rang

"Hello! I'm on to Miss Alexa Martin?" A female voice asked

"Yes you are, who I'm I on to?" I asked back

"You recently applied for a job as a Nanny in the Brown's mansion" she said

"Oh yes, I did ma'am" I replied

"Babe, who are you..." Cody was saying but I quickly motioned him to keep quiet using some facial expressions and then whispered

"The Anthony's" That made him smile ear to ear

"Alright, so you're expected to come for your interview in two hours, I'll text you the address, Thank you" She said and hung up just before I asked my next question

"Wow! That was rude, is that how I would be treated if I eventually got the job" I complained, and then turned to meet the expectant look in Cody's eyes

"So...did you get the job?" He asked

"Chill man! I was only called for an interview in two hours" I replied which made him frown a little, but then it was replaced by another smile almost immediately

"I know and trust that you can Ace it, you're intelligent after all" he said and pinched my shoulder playfully

"I would try my best" Was all I said and went to get prepared for the 'interview'

*****************

Knock knock

"Hello! How may I help you?" A man in his late thirties said as soon as he opened the door

"Um...I'm here for a job interview sir" I answered with a smile

"Oh! I'm guessing you're Miss Alexa Martin" he said and I nodded

"Come in and have a sit" he said pointing to the couch

"Thanks sir " I said and he smiled, he is such a nice man

"I would go and inform the boss about your arrival" he said and moved towards a door which I assumed was the study room

After few minutes he came to me and said that Mr Anthony Brown was ready to see me

I was so nervous, knowing fully well what my mission was and also because I would be meeting the Almighty Anthony Brown for the first time in my life

I knocked on the door and a Serene voice said

"Come in"

"Good morning sir" I greeted with a slight bow, though I didn't see him as his chair was facing the opposite direction

My greeting made him turn to my direction and my jaws dropped, at how incredibly good looking he was, for a man his game it was just too amazing

I was engrossed and dazed that I didn't hear him call my attention

"Miss Alexa, can you hear me?" He said in a soft tune, the least I expected

He was the exact opposite of what I had pictured in my mind

"I'm so sorry Sir....I...I..." I stuttered, not knowing the words to use in explaining myself

"So?" He cocked his perfectly shaped brows at me and I almost fainted at how perfect he was.

"Did you get any of those things I said?" He asked

"Forgive my manners sir, but I...I didn't, I'm really sorry" I said scratching the back of my head and he sighed

He was so patient, I myself would find whoever acted the way I did as an unserious individual and there by not suitable

"There are not many things to ask though, but why do you think you're suitable for this job?" He asked and relaxed himself on the chair maintaining a strong eye contact with me

I cleared my throat and adjusted myself on the sit

"Umm, I think I'm suitable for this job because I love children a lot and I relate well with them, when I was a little younger, I usually helped my aunt with the children in the day care she managed" I said

"Though this is my first ever job as a Nanny, but I know I can handle kids with utmost care" I added and he just stared at me for some minutes

"You weren't informed?" He suddenly asked

"Informed about what sir?" I asked with a confused look

"Before you applied for the job, didn't you see anything about the age of the 'child' you would be taking care of?" He asked making sure that he stressed the word 'child'

And that got me more confused than ever, or could it be that I was to take care of an oldie, I asked myself

But no information was given as to whom I'll be taking care of

"No sir, there was nothing related to whom I'll be Nannieng" I replied

"Alright then, you're to Nanny a twenty two years old man" he said keeping a straight face, but I couldn't help but burst into laughter

"A twenty two years old? That's ridicu...I'm sincerely sorry sir" I said seeing that he was just staring at me

"It's just that, how can twenty two years old be nannied?" I asked, feeling the urge to laugh again but I suppressed it

"Are you ready to take this job?" He asked, looking calm as ever

"Yes I am sir" I answered with a serious facial expression

"Good, but before then, can you handle him? He is jerk" He asked again

"And how old are you? You look eighteen" He added while giving me an up to down look

"I'm twenty one sir" I replied a little upset about

"I would have preferred someone older, cause like I said, he is a jerk" he said and I couldn't help but feel upset

He didn't have to say that to me though,but what can I say, I'm the one in need of a job

"I can deal with it sir, our age difference is not so much, so I think we can relate well with each other" I replied trying to convince him that I could do the job

"Alright then, I'll get back to you," he said and turned back the chair to what he was doing before I came in

"Alright Thank you sir" I said and left

CHAPTER THREE

ALEXA'S POV

"I guess you get another plan up and ready since I don't think I will be getting this job" I said to Cody and his gang.

After I returned yesterday from the Brown's mansion, I could tell my interview didn't go well. I don't want to get their hopes high since I wasn't really sure about the outcome.

"Chill babe, you are only saying this because you are not fully in support of this" Cody said and I glared at him.

I opened my mouth to give him one hundred and one reasons why I think the idea is still crazy but the ringing from my phone interrupted me.

"I will just go get this" I walked away towards the table where I placed my phone.

"Hello Miss Martin" the feminine voice from the other end of the line said

"Speaking" I replied

"Congratulations! You have gotten the job you applied for as a Nanny in the Brown's mansion, If you can resume work today, it would be great" she said, and I didn't even know if I should be happy or sad

"Um...umm...." I stuttered and turned towards Cody's direction and saw him signaling me to say yes

"Yes, yes I can resume today, I would be there in an hour" I said

"Alright, I'm Clarissa by the way, Thank you" The lady replied, she sounded friendly today unlike yesterday

"Thank you too Miss Clarissa" I said and she hung up, after saying it was her pleasure and stuff

"Babe! You're the best, I knew you could ace it" Cody said and lifted me up in joy

All I could do was smile, as they all cheered in happiness

"Let's celebrate this" Adam, Cody's right hand man said and everyone agreed

"So, now that you have successfully gotten into the mansion as an insider, you would be the one to let us know all the exits and entries in the mansion" Cody said as he sipped his drink

"Okay, that's for an easy and smooth operation" I said with a nod

"Exactly, and also, you will be the one to let us know where all the money and valuables are kept, and the places where they are security cameras and also how many security personnels are in the mansion and also, their position in the building" he added

"Wow! I have so much work to do, would I be able to get it done?" I asked and he placed his hand on my shoulder

"Babe! Trust me, nothing would go wrong, I promise" he said trying to calm me down from the tension I was feeling

I didn't know it was visible to everyone, but then, I sighed heavily

"Alright, I'll go and get ready to resume" I said and left them to keep celebrating

This was a big feat for me but I had to do it, cause of the love I have for Cody

************

"Alright babe! I'll be on my way now" I said and placed a kiss on his cheek, then made my way to the door

"Good luck babe!" He said and I smiled

I was about to knock on the door when it opened

"Oh! Good morning sir" I greeted

"Just in time Miss Martin, come in" Mr Anthony said gesturing for me to go in

"Good morning to you too" he greeted back with a warm smile

"Thank you sir" I replied and walked in

"Nolan! Nolan" He called, I assumed it was the man I was to Nanny, it still sounded funny and I almost burst out in laughter

Thank goodness I was able to maintain my self control

"What is it? You should be gone by now" I heard the guy say

'Why was he rude to his father?' I asked myself but didn't give much thought to it

"Get your ass down here" Mr. Anthony said again and he groaned in anger I guess before coming down

'My goodness! This guy is the epitome of beauty' I said to myself as I stared at him in awe, I could swear my mouth was agape as the Nolan guy chuckled when he looked my direction

"So, why did you call me?" He asked folding his arms across his chest

"Alexa, this is Nolan, he is my son" Mr Anthony said

"Hi Mr. Nolan" I greeted with a smile but he scoffed

Such a nice way of replying to a greeting

"Nolan, this is Alexa, your Nanny" Mr. Anthony said to Nolan and he burst out into a wild laughter

I was surprised as fuck but Mr. Anthony didn't look surprised, instead, he looked as though he was expecting it

"I told he was a jerk, don't mind it though" He said and all I could say was

"Oh!"

"Come on Dad, A Nanny, and it had to be a lady, and ugly one at that, you should have gotten a beautiful one and I would be the one following her around" he said still laughing

"Nolan! Be respectful for one in lifetime, the lady In question is standing right in front of you" Mr. Anthony cautioned but he continued

"She is freaking me out, how do you expect me to move around with a she joker, she would freak everyone out" he said, but I kept my cool

I wasn't going to let his words get to me

"I'm sorry Miss Martin, you said you could handle it, so here you are, and you just have to deal with it" Mr. Anthony said and I smiled and nodded

"And you Nolan, pull yourself together,if you try anything stupid, I would get you a bodyguard instead" He warned, but the extremely rude Nolan rolled his eyes and said

"Get your ass moving dad and let me be" and then walked away

"Hey! You don't have to be rude to your dad" I scolded, and followed behind him, it was so annoying, and I couldn't keep quiet about it

"Alexa or whatever he called you, you better shut up, and stop following me around, I know you like me, but I don't feel the same way for you, so stop forcing yourself on me" he said and paused in his steps, then turned to see my reaction

He was smiling, for God knows why

"Umm, I think it's the other way around, cause you have been smiling since you saw me, and purposely saying things to make me upset" I retorted

"And from what I know, guys do that to girls they...." I continued but he cut me off

"Stop trying to start up a conversation with me, cause your voice, it's so manly, I mean, why would a girl have such a huge and deep voice? Mine don't even sound as deep as yours" he said with creased brows

"You sure you're not a man disguised as a lady?" He asked giving me an up to down look

"Nolan, I..."

"Shh! You're making me scared, get off my face Miss ugly" he said

"Why stress so much about my looks and voice? I mean, even a blind man could clearly see that, though I'm not good looking, you still cannot be compared to me" I said and his expression changed

"Hey! I saw how you looked at me, so don't try denying the fact that I'm the cutest guy you've ever seen with that abnormally big eyes of yours" he said and was about to walk away, but he paused when I retorted nonchalantly

I acted as though his words weren't getting to me and that for sure made him really surprised and felt challenged

"Yes, I was checking you out, not because you're cute or beautiful, I was only feeling sorry for you and appreciating my looks, cause I honestly thought I was the ugliest person on earth until I met you, ish! God was really merciless when he created you" I said on and on and his jaw dropped, he could see him struggling and looking for the right words for a comeback

But his brain dictionary failed him, I smirked at him and then walked away

I needed to start my real mission immediately

"Alexa! Alexa! Ugly bitch where the fuck are you?" Nolan called

OMPHH

I bumped into someone

"Even with you mighty eyes you still can't see clearly" he said, and that's when I knew he was the one

I just rolled my eyes and asked

"What is it? I heard you calling my name" I asked

"Yes, don't you know I'm your boss? So whenever I call you, you should report to me immediately

"What do you want?" I asked

"You're such a stubborn Nanny, but then, I need you to come help me with my clothes" he said and walked away

.

.

.

"I don't want to wear the color blue, get me umm...a red one" he said and I had to return the blue t-shirt back to his closet

I have been bringing and returning his clothes for the past thirty minutes, and I knew he was doing it on purpose

"Nolan, i'm your Nanny and not your messenger, and how can you possibly wear all these clothes scattered on the bed?" I asked In frustration

"Yeah, you're right, I can't wear all these clothes, so arrange them back in the closet" he said, and put on his headset immediately, not giving me the chance to complain

"Umm! Alexa! get me a drink, a hot orange juice" he said taking off the headset

"A hot orange juice? Who drinks that? How can I even get that?" I asked, I felt like giving him a punch in that face of his

"Yes a hot orange juice, I drink it and boil the juice, that's how to get it" he said and I sighed

'What kind of a human is this, now I understand why Mr. Anthony stressed the fact that he was a jerk' I complained and went to the kitchen to do as he said

"Here is your drink" I said handing the tray to him

"Thanks dear" he said which made me arch my brows, did he just thank me

Hhh! I don't think I can ever understand this guy

I said to myself, just as I went back to the closet, he screamed

"What! How can you serve me a hot drink?" He asked

"But you...." I tried to say but he cut me off

"Why are you this wicked? You just started your job and you're already messing up" he complained

"You just said you wanted a hot orange juice, that's why I..."

"Ha-ha-ha! I love that reaction on your face, it was so real, my fans are never going to suspect it was planned" he said and brought out his cell phone

This asshole was making a video, and was going to post it, goodness! I was fed up already

"Oops! I spilled the drink, come clean it up Alexa" he said and smiled mischievously at me, all I could do was obey

When I left his bedroom, Cody called, since I was the only one in the living room, I answered it

"Hey babe! How are you doing?" He asked and I just sighed

"How's your new job going? Have you found something?" He asked again

"No I haven't, I have not been changed to look around the house, but don't worry, I'll get something soon " I said

"Alexa!" I heard Nolan call from behind and I turned sharply, my heart was pounding really hard In my chest.
