.......Adam's pov.......
I woke up as always, grumpy and angry. I took my bath and got ready for work. I haven't been there in a while and I plan on going today.
I stood before my mirror fixing my tie.
I know I should be worried about him but I don't want to.
I tried so much not to think of my 3 years old son, Brandon.
He's extremely sick and have been going through seizures for months now.
And it's all his stupid late mother's fault.
Only God knows what she took when she was pregnant with him and now she died leaving the little piece of burden for me.
Just a one night stand and she tried to trap me with pregnancy but too bad she died before the wedding.
She was only after my money. Am a very famous billionaire. The youngest one there is and am awfully single...
gosh!
I hate her and I hate women!
All of them!
The other gender in skirt.
They're are completely useless and devils.
I so much hate them, that I have no female staff working for me.
The chef, gardener, security men..
They're all male.
Also at my company.
Rumors go around that am gay but seriously, I don't give a damn.
Am a billionaire.
Mere rumors do not affect me and it never changes my mind set.
I have a no woman policy.
I'll kill them for sure if anyone steps into my mansion.
The door burst opened and my chef barged in.
"Sir Adam, its Brandon! Another seizure!" He cried.
"Call the fuc*ing doctor!" I rapsed.
"He's not answering his calls" he replied.
That sonofab••tch!
I rushed out to Brandon's room with the chef trailing behind me.
Brandon was on his bed shaking like he was been electrocuted.
"Get my car keys" I ordered and the chef rushed out.
.......Kira's pov.....
I attended to a little boy who sat on the hospital bed.
"Hold still Zach" I said calling him by his name.
He winced as I bound the open wound by his arm.
It's another not so good day at Princeton Hospital. I'm a pediatrician. The youngest one in this hospital.
I woke up this morning to learn that my fellow doctors had been rushed to a camp site where lots of children were on their summer break.
There was an earthquake and I don't know how bad it is yet.
Am the only pediatrician available at the hospital.
Am trying to be as fast as I could to finish up with my patients and go join them.
Am always eager to help people in need and hurt. I just can't help it.
The boy smiled a bit.
"Doctor Kira, your hands are so soft" the little boy remarked giggling.
I chuckled.
"Tell me Zach, what happened?" I asked anxiously.
"I tripped and fell down...a sharp blade cut me" he said looking sad.
I smiled.
"Be more careful next time. Are your parents outside?" I asked and he nodded.
"Alright. I'll be done soon".
Suddenly, I heard quite a commotion.
What's going on?
A nurse ran into the room.
"Kira! there's an urgent case! It's Adam Norman's son" she rapsed.
"Adam Norman? The billionaire... Can't he wait till am done with Zach?" I asked speechless.
"His son is having a seizure!!!" She yelled and I flinched.
I grabbed my stethoscope and raced to the lobby. I ran into the ward to meet the owner of the hospital and few nurses around.
I saw him at the end of the room. I felt butterflies dance around in my tummy.
He's so gorgeous.
I've seen alot of magazines with his photo and he's practically the talk of the day.
But I don't like the fact he's gay...is he?
"Get the fuc*ing doctor!!" He yelled and I somehow jerked back to reality.
The boy was on the bed shaking like he was convulsing.
Oh my God.
"We have just one doctor available...Doctor Kira!" The owner of the hospital, Doctor Nathan called.
I rushed in.
"Yes sir!" I replied in a haste.
I noticed Mr Adam stepped away from me.
Is he allergic to me or something?
Mr Nathan cleared his throat.
"Attend to the little boy..." He didn't finish his statement and mr Adam barked.
"No! Don't you dare lay your filthy finger on him!" He yelled at me and I flinched.
......Kira's pov.......
Everyone flinched and I wasn't an exception.
What...what did he just say?
"Mr Adam...your son needs help" Mr Nathan stuttered but it made mr Adam look angry the more.
"I want a male doctor to attend to my son! Is that too hard to find!?" He rapsed and I scoffed.
I hate people that tried to think less of the female gender.
"Mr Adam, am sorry to interrupt but I think I should let you know that am the only available pediatrician in this hospital right this moment, so let me do my job!" I dished to the body and placed the stethoscope on his chest listening to his fast heartbeat.
"Am going to sue this hospital!" Mr Adam threatened and stormed out of the room.
I sighed.
"I need to inject him. I'll go get the drugs" I yelled and ran out.
......Adam's pov.....
I clenched my fist and sat on a bench with grit teeth.
How dare that lady?
Who does she think she is??
I'm going to deal with her for making a fool out of me.
Am going to deal with her.
.....Kira's pov......
I revived the little boy and he laid on the bed his eyes closed.
He's so beautiful and have that slight resemblance of his father.
It's so hurting to see a little kid feeling so much pain and health problems.
I held his little hand and rubbed it.
He opened his eyes slowly and glanced at me.
He looked at the ceiling.
"Am I at the hospital?" He asked, his voice so low and tender.
Aww.
"Yes, you are. How are you feeling?" I asked him and he didn't answer immediately.
"Fine. But I'll still be sick again" he muttered smartly as his eyes glued to the ceiling.
"Don't worry sweetheart, you'll be fine" I said and a tear slid down his cheek.
My eyes widened.
I was gob smacked.
What's making him cry?
Does his father hit him??
"What's wrong baby? Can you tell me?" I asked concerned and he sniffed.
"Daddy hates me" he replied and cleaned his tears with his hands.
I gasped.
Oh, the poor boy..
I sat beside him on the bed and pulled him into a hug.
He held on tight to me.
That heartless mr Adam.
Only God knows what he's doing to the poor boy.
I was starting to get emotional already.
"He doesn't hate you baby..stop crying. Am here for you. I won't leave you, alright?" I I said hoping to calm him down.
"Your hands are soft" he whispered and I smiled.
"Please...let me stay with you" he whispered again.
"But...your father" I jibed.
He kept mute and I pat his back gently.
The door opened and Mr Adam walked in.
......Adam's pov.....
I stepped into the room and saw something odd.
The annoying doctor was holding onto Brandon.
I scoffed.
Pathetic.
"Is he okay now? I have some place I want to be" I said to the doctor and she glared at me.
She stood up and walked to me like she would rip me apart any minute from now.
"Can I talk to you outside?" She asked and I just had to take a proper look from her head to toes.
"Fine" I replied and left.
I stood by the wall with my hands in my pocket.
"Your son is going through a feeling of hurt and pain. He said you hate him. You're tormenting him" she said.
I scoffed.
"And you think just by talking to me would change anything?" I asked and she folded her arms.
"If you can't take proper care of him, you hire a kind hearted nanny. Or...you take the boy to an orphanage" she jibed.
And that's where my plan comes in.
I smirked.
"What if, i hire you to stay at my mansion and take care of him. I'll pay you twice the cash you get paid here. What do you say?"
She looked suprised.
"I thought you detest women" she rolled.
I scoffed.
"Unlike you said, I love my son. And am sick and tired of him thinking I don't. So if he has you by his side, he'll have someone to take care of him" I said.
"So, what do you say?" I asked badly knowing she'd agree.
"No, I won't fall to your traps" she replied.
"Then, I'll be forced to sue this hospital"
"What?!" She gasped.
"Trust me, I have the money to that" I jibed. .
She sighed.
"Alright".
I Smirked.
.......Kira's pov......
I couldn't believe the huge outstanding building before my eyes. So magnificent and exquisite.
Mr Adam is alot wealthier than I thought.
His staff whom were all male kept staring at me repeatedly like I was the first lady they ever set their eyes on.
I followed the guard who was carrying my luggage to my room.
Brandon held onto me tightly and wouldn't let go.
He's so adorable and sweet.
He's just unlucky to have a heartless man for a father.
We went into my new room.
I gasped seeing how lovely it appeared.
Brandon left my hand and walked to the bed. He climbed on top of it and dangled his legs looking at the floor.
I took my luggage from the guard.
"Uh...it's fine. I'll take it from here" I jibed and he nodded.
He walked out of the room and shut the door gently.
I dropped my luggage at the end of the bed and unzipped it.
"Am so happy you'll be staying with us now" Brandon said cheerfully.
I smiled wryly as I brought out my clothes.
I better hurry up and help with the chores around the house.
I took Brandon's arm.
"Come on baby, let's go and help out" I said and we both left the room.
We walked down the long stairs and Brandon showed me the kitchen.
I walked in.
There were no maids.
Just an aged man by the counter peeling potatoes.
"Um...sir, can we help?" I asked and he flinched.
"No.no! Mr Adam won't like that one bit" he said nodding negatively.
"He won't know unless...you tell him. I'll just help cook the sauce, I promise" I said walking to the old man.
He must be tired.
"But..." He protested.
"Come on sir, he won't notice" I said taking some tomatoes.
He sighed.
"Alright my dear since there's no winning with you" he grouse and handed me a knife.
I smiled.
This is great!
Something to do.
I put on an apron and in no time, the preparation for the sauce was quick and active.
Adam's pov
I got home hungry and tired.
But then I remembered the little burden I had - Brandon.
He would always run to me and try to cheer me up but surprisingly, he wasn't in my room yet.
I sighed and took a bath before putting on some casual comfortable clothes.
I headed to the dinning and found my meal already there.
I sat down and devoured the whole food like I hadn't eaten in days.
Wow!
It tastes different.
I can tell.
The old chef has been cooking for me for years now and his sauce doesn't taste this nice.
The chef walked in and bowed before taking the plates.
My curiosity got the best of me.
"Did you buy a new recipe book. The food was kind of delicious" I said my cheeks turning red.
*Really? Is my food that good?*
I heard and turned.
It was the fu-k*ng doctor.
No!
Don't tell me...
"You were the one that cooked the meal?" I asked blinking.
She smiled.
"Yeah...am so glad you liked it" she replied blushing.
I sprang up to my feet and rushed out. I found myself in the toilet and I tried vomiting what I just ate.
Oh God!.
After all my years of living..
I still got to eat a food cooked by those she-devils.
I tried but the meal was right down inside of me.
"What's wrong mr Adam? Are you sick?" The witch asked standing beside me.
I got up glaring daggers at her.
"I never want to see you close to my kitchen, do you understand?!!!" I barked but she didn't flinch or move.
Huh...
Doctors.
"Am sorry I intruded. I just wanted to help the old man" she said folding her arms.
"Come with me" I ordered and walked out of the bathroom while she trailed behind me.
It's time I share this house.
Something like this never happen again.
....Kira's pov.....
We got to the living room and Adam stood far away from me.
"Now, here's how will be living in this mansion from now on. You're only allowed to be in your room and Brandon's room upstairs but down here, you can only step into the living room. You're restricted from Anyother place, got that?" He asked and I scoffed.
"Whatever" I muttered and he walked away.
To hell with what he just said.
Am sure am not a prisoner.
......Adam's pov.....
As I left the living room, I brought out my cellphone and made a call.
Let's teach our doctor a little lesson.
