✨Episode 14✨

Skylar’s POV

I’ve been really busy since morning. Work is just so hectic today.

Ahh! It’s time for me to give Sir Andrian his coffee. Thank goodness I still have about 10 minutes so I can make the coffee and take it to his office.

I made the coffee and went to his office.

“Sir, your PA is here” his secretary said through the intercom

“You can go in” she said to me after she dropped the call

I opened the door and went in. My eyes met with that of Zoey but I looked away and focused on sir Andrian.

“This is your coffee sir” I said placing it gently on the table and turned around to leave

“Skylar, how are you doing?” Audrey said into the phone

She had actually called when I went to give the boss his coffee so I had to call her back.

“I’m good. You?”

“I don’t really know. Where are you right now?”

“I’m at work. Is something wrong?”

“I think so. I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen to you today. You have to be extra careful today.

If not for your sake, do it for my sake and Ella’s sake please”

“I’ve heard you Audrey even though I’m kind of scared”

“You don’t have to be scared Skylar. I’ve always known you to be a strong girl. Everything will be fine, okay?”

“Thank you Audrey. You’re the best”

“Yeah, I know. I’ve got to go now, call me when you get home”

“Ayy captain” I replied and we both giggled before I ended the call

Andrian’s POV

When Skylar came into my office, I wanted to talk to her but Zoey will think otherwise so I just decided to let her be.

I don’t know why I’ve been kind of missing her since morning. I was working on different documents but she filled my thoughts.

I think going out with Zoey will be the best thing to do.

“Let’s go Zoey” I said ignoring what she was wearing

I just hope it’s not what I’m thinking. If she has started developing feelings for me, she better gets rid of it before it’s too late.

We went to a classy restaurant and ordered for food.

“Andrian, when are you going to get married” Zoey suddenly asked making me almost choke on my drink

“Are you planning to kill me?”

“No, why would I?” she said with an eye roll

“Then why did you ask that question?”

“Because I’m curious to know who will be the lucky woman”

“Do you plan to annoy me this afternoon? Why will you talk about getting married?”

“You will need to will your properties to someone and there’s no way that would happen if you don’t get married and have your own child”

“I can will my properties to Avery. She’s definitely going to get married so she will be able to pass it on to her children but as for me, I’m not getting married”

“But….. ”

“No buts Zoey. Let’s eat our lunch please”

“Fine then”

“So…. Let’s talk about you. Have you found someone you want to spend the rest of your life with?” I asked making her drop her cutleries

“Yeah I think so but sadly, the person doesn’t notice my feelings or maybe he’s just pretending”

I had a feeling she was talking about me but I decided not to dwell on the thought.

“That must be really sad”

“If you were in my shoe Andrian, what would you have done?”

“I would have moved on of course” I answered quickly

At least if she’s referring to me, I should seize this opportunity to get her mind off me.

“What if you really love the person and don’t want to loose him?” she asked again

“Hmm!! Well…. I might just let the person know how I feel but if he doesn’t feel the same way for me, I will let him be. You don’t force someone to love you”

“Thank you. Let’s finish our lunch” she rushed her words

*Sighs*

Mason’s POV

“Is the job done?” I said into the phone

“Yes boss”

“Good. She will come out anytime soon. All you have to do is pretend to be a taxi driver, sedate her and bring her to the mansion”

“Alright boss”

Skylar Brandon, I will finally get to have a taste of you.

Skylar’s POV

I finished the last work I had to do for the day and prepared to go home.

I picked my bag and other important things before going out to meet the driver as usual.

“How was work today Skylar?” he asked smiling at me

“It was fine but a bit stressful. How was yours?”

“It was fine too. We will continue our discussion in the car. Let’s leave”

“Sure”

We got into the car and he tried igniting the car but then he noticed something was wrong.

He got down to check only to discover that all the tyres were busted.

“Skylar, we can’t take this car today. I don’t know what happened but the tyres are not in a good shape. Let me go talk to the boss if he will give us another car”

“Okay” I answered tiredly and got down from the car

I just want to go home and rest but who the hell am I kidding? That mean boss of mine won’t let me sit until I cook dinner.

Few minutes later, the driver came out of Andrian’s office with a smile. Ahh! At last!

“The boss has permitted us to take the second car, let’s go”

We walked to where the car was packed but sadly, the tyres were busted. Am I supposed to be suspicious of this? I guess not!

The driver went to meet Andrian again but this time around, he came out with a sad face.

“Sir Andrian said you should take a cab”

“Ohh ….” I said dejectedly

Wait! I have money on me, what do I do?

“Is something wrong Skylar?” the driver asked concerned

“Well you see, I thought there was no need for me to bring any money along with me so right now, I don’t know how I will get home” I said sadly

“You don’t have to be sad about it. Here, have it” he said stretching some money to me

“But…. ”

“No buts Skylar. I don’t think anyone has ever been as nice as you are to me so please just accept the money”

“Thank you so much. I promise to repay you someday”

“You don’t have to. Now hurry home”

I bade him farewell and went out to get a cab.

It didn’t take too long before a cab pulled up in front of me. Wow! So fast.

“Where are you headed ma’am?”

I told him where I was headed being careful not to mention Andrian’s mansion.

“Get in ma’am”

I got in and saw a guy at the front seat with one other guy at the back seat.

Without giving it much thoughts, I got in and minded my business. I took out my phone and started playing games with it and within few minutes, I got carried away.

I raised my head to check where we had gotten to but almost immediately, a napkin covered my nose and I drifted into unconsciousness.
