Chapter Eight.
*The Next Morning*
Dexter's Pov....
I woke up with my head banging so loud, it hurts so much. I wanted to come down from the bed as I realized my leg was on something soft and hard at the same time.
I quickly removed my leg as it was a human that was on the floor. Shit! What the hell is she e doing in my room.
Or is she scared to stay in her room? What a weak girl. Wait, what happened to me yesterday, don't tell me my trauma is back, I remembered calling Melanie to my room.
She already know about it, I hope she doesn't ask more questions and she should just mind her business that way.
"Hey wake up." I used my leg to hit her back. As she turned over with her thighs being exposed, what the!!!
I watched as she opened her eyes slowly, when she saw me she quickly stood up from the floor.
"What are you doing in my room, you can't even spare me some privacy? Are you that scared?" I asked immediately she stood up.
"But sir..." She wanted to say something but she stopped.
"I'm sorry, I will just leave." She said as she turned her back wanting to leave the room
"Why did you sleep in my room yesterday?" I queried before she could step outside.
"I was just scared staying in my room." She stated.
"Don't try it again." I warned her as she just nodded. If she is scared she should go find some where else to stay. I rolled my eyes as she walked away, so annoying.
I need to go and see the doctor, it has been long I've experienced this. Why is it coming back again? The pain after 5 years is still engraved in my heart. My ex girlfriend death is still hunting me.
"I will just stay at home today, I'm not going to the chapel." I said to myself.
************
"Remove all the unimportant investors meeting in the schedule for this month. Make everything free."
"What? All investors are important and besides it's going to take long for me to do that." Melanie complained.
"Just do as I say and submit today." I added as she scoffed.
Did she just scoff Huh?
"What did you just do?" I queried.
"Sir, I wasn't employed to work on weekend, so I will just edit the schedule and send it tomorrow" She said as she excused herself.
This girl is really crossing her boundaries these days, I should remind her who the boss is.
She didn't go to the chapel today too, I guess we are on the same page.
I knew my mom was going to come here today so I should just be prepared for those pep talk of hers.
You must be wondering why I am not interested in getting married. It was a long story since 7 years ago. My mom knew about it but she doesn't want me to live with the fear of my past. She want a lady to occupy the space of my ex girlfriend in my heart.
"I'm home." I heard my mother's voice as she entered the house, I think I need to change my security pin. I think she figured out about the pin yesterday when she followed Melanie to this place.
I'm very sure she can't just barge in anytime she wants without even knocking.
"Welcome mom." I greeted her as she came to me and kissed me on my cheek.
I thought she was angry with the way I replied her yesterday, that's why I love my mom.
I wondered how she got to forget about my ex easily, I remembered how she will go shopping with her, they will spend quality time with themselves and it was actually cool. Not until she died.
I started seeing her in my dream, I was starting to get mentally ill. Anytime I can see her my heart will stop beating.
I visited the hospital for good two years, it wasn't cool at all.
My grandfather told me to get better and start managing the company, I started working at the company and I made sure to get committed to the company. My mind became preoccupied with something else.
Mrs.Corazon knew about my health, she has been my nanny since when I was little. She will be the one to help me whenever I got those attacks.
"Where's Lani?" She asked. My mother sometimes call Melanie Lani.
"She's in her room." I replied her as she touched my shoulder and went upstairs.
"She sleeps alone in her house, how will she be scared when I am with her? Something must be wrong! Or what if she's lying." My mind drifted to what happened in the morning.
Few minutes Later.
I saw my mom and Melanie coming down from the stairs. Melanie already changed her cloth as she was putting on a white crop top and a leader pant with boot bringing out all her female curves.
She's still that with messy buns hairstyle anyways.
She really looked cool with the dress, I've not seen her in this type of outfit before. She always dress corporately. I guess mom must have instigated her to put on the dress.
My mother kept in whispering some things in ear and her face was all red.
"You guys are going for shopping right?" I asked in order to be sure.
"What, are you shocked by her beauty?" My mom teased.
There is no reason for me to reply her.
"I told her to dress this way, I'm very sure guys will ask for her number once she can go out." She said.
Whatever!
"And you know what happens when she starts dating." My mom reminded as I just rolled my eyes.
It will not be hard for me to look for a new Personal Assistant.
"I will go with you guys." I said as they are looked at me with their eyes wide opened, I guess they were not expecting me to say something like that.
Chapter Nine. Three Months With My Cute Boss. Chapter Nine. Dexter's Pov. I don't know what made me to say I was going to follow her outside, am I crazy? To be honest to find another P.A that is as hardworking as her is really rare. This is the first time I will be seeing her dressing like that anyways. "Do you mean it? Why do you want to follow us?" My mom asked as I just rolled my eyes. I'm very sure my mom must be surprised by what I just said, I hope she doesn't think about another thing. "I'm coming I will go and change." I told them so as to wait for me. "Your face looks swollen and you look tired, what is wrong dear?" I heard my mother asking Melanie as I walked up the stairs, I hope she doesn't tell my mom that she slept in my room. ******** I was driving already, my mom insisted she was going to sit at the backseat while Melanie should sit with me at the front, it was not really a long journey and it didn't take long before we reached the boutique. It was a unisex
Chapter Ten. Dexter's Pov. It is in the evening already and Melanie isn't back, my mom was damn worried. "She will come back home." I assured her. The way she is pacing around is really bothering me. It was then I heard a car screeching at the front of our house, who could that be? I'm not expecting visitor also. My mom rushed out with the hope thinking she was Melanie while I followed her. It wasn't Melanie... A young guy came out from the car. I don't think I know this guy anywhere!!! Who is he? She was disappointed as it occurs to be a young guy, looks as if he came to see us. He walked towards us it was then I realized he really came to see us. "Are you Mr.Dexter?" He asked immediately he got closer to me. "Yes I am, what happened?" I asked when he said he was looking for me. "Miss Melanie is in the hospital right now. She wanted you to know so I had to..." He was talking before my mom interrupted. "Which hospital? And what happened to her?" My mom asked panicking He t
Chapter 11 Melanie's Pov. After waking up earlier, I saw the cute guy walking into my room. I guess he was the one who saved me. "Thank you very much." I said to him. "You don't have to thank me." He said placing the fruit on the desk that was beside me. "You are welcome." He said with a smile. He looked so cute, and he is gentle and understanding. I can't judge his behavior easily anyways, I just me him. "Please can you do me a favor?" I asked immediately. "Sure," He replied and I was so happy. He didn't even hear what I want to ask him first. "Please can you go to this place, and help me tell them I am at the hospital." I begged him as I told him the location. "Okay, I will." He assured me. I told him the resident name and my name also, that will really help. "Take care darling." He said as he walked out of the room. Wait, did he just call me darling? I can't remember when a male person called me such a sweet name last except from Dexter grand father, he is always find if
Chapter 12. Dexter's Pov. It's Monday already, I remembered the words my mom told me yesterday, I never wanted her to know that I saw Elizabeth in my dream again. I don't want her to be worried about me anymore. The smell of Melanie's food hit my nose, it smelled so nice as ever. I haven't bath yet, I brushed my teeth as I went downstairs to devour whatever she cooked. She was already dressed, I thought she is going to stay at home since she got admitted to the hospital yesterday, woah! She is really strong. She asked for her phone, to be honest...I trashed it, I wonder how a person will be collecting a huge amount of money and still be using a phone for three years. Is she not ashamed. The phone is already cracked on the screen and it is not okay anymore, I wonder how she is using a phone like that anyways. The psychologist should arrive anytime from now. It wasn't long before the psychologist arrived anyways. It's in the evening already and Melanie isn't around, not as if I c
Chapter 13. Melanie's Pov. I searched the trash bin as I looked for my phone I hope I will be able to find it. Just two trash cam left. I am really tired, I didn't even know when the tears start coming out from my eyes. I already missed two months of my period just because of stress. I hope this will end very soon. "Found it!!!" I muttered to myself when I saw the phone in the third can. I walked back inside I tried switching on the phone but it wasn't working. Then I plugged it and it didn't on, it was then I bursted into tears. Am I really crying because of the phone? I am just fed up, I should go and use my anti depressants. Then I remembered the doctor telling me they found a lot in my blood stream. Yeah, I have been taking overdose lately. I walked through the hallway as I planned on going to my room, I heard him whimpering as I wondered what was going on. It sounded as if he was in pain. I opened the door to his room as I met him holding to his chest tightly. I quick
Chapter 14. Dexter's Pov. I woke up with my head banging loudly, I remembered the dream that I had as I rubbed my head in frustration. Shit! I really miss Elizabeth but I wonder why this is happening to me again. I installed a bug in the room already, I need to check it to confirm if she didn't enter my room this time around. The time is 7am, she should be awake already. I stood up from the bed as I went to where the bug was, I removed the memory card as I placed it the the card reader then connected it to my laptop. Went to my desk as I placed the laptop on it started watching. I kept on watching but I didn't see anything, I played it 4x so that it will be more faster. I can't waste my time staring at myself while I was sleeping. "Wait." I paused immediately as I saw myself grumbling on the bed, seems like it was here I started having the dream. It wasn't long before I saw Melanie, she came inside. I thought she will not be able to enter my room after I scolded her the other
Chapter 15. The Next Day. DEXTER'S POINT OF VIEW "How could you allow her to sleep in the sitting room?" My mom shouted at me in my room. Can't she sleep there? "Even the maids have beds they sleep on." She added. "She said she was going to sleep there not like I forced her to do it." I said replying her. "Good morning Eveth, is anything wrong?" Melanie asked entering the room. "You are awake already, hope your body part isn't paining you." Eveth asked she she rushed towards her since she was still at the door entrance and touching different part of her body. "I'm sorry he did this to you." She begged as I scoffed. "It was supposed to be a secret but I didn't know you were going to wake up this early, please don't tell Mr.Abrah about it." She pleaded. She is now acting like the pitiful person. "Everyone is at home, you guys should be careful." My mom said. "It's not as if something is going on between us, why are you behaving this way?" I asked. It was then Melanie look
Chapter 16. Melanie's Pov. "He's really heartless." He couldn't even help me to get my towel. I really hate him. He must have gone out already, I came out of the bathroom as I went to get my towel myself. It wasn't long before I finished and I went to meet them in the dining. They were all sitting already. "Good morning sir," I greeted grandfather and Eveth brother that was sitting there. The only seat left was the one beside Dexter, why can't Eveth seat beside him? "We should call your parents over one of these day to come for dinner." Grandfather said referring to me. "That would be too much sir." I said smiling as he just scoffed. "Nothing is too much for you my darling." He replied as they all bursted into laughter. "So, are you guys planning to get married?" Sophia asked. Sophia is Eveth sister. "We are not dating." Dexter said hitting the table. "You don't do that in front of your elders." Grandfather corrected. "Can I correct something?" Dexter asked the whole peo
