ALYSSA’S POV. “I’m not throwing it out sir, it's just kind of stressful and I can’t do it. I’m sorry, sir.” I stood up to leave, but the next words he said made me halt. “Miss Brown, the pay is double your pay here, and it’s not that stressful. You only need to dress the child up for school, feed the child take the child to school, pick the child up, and feed the child lunch and dinner before a bedtime story then once she falls asleep you’re free to go home and come back the next day before coming to the office.” He said desperately like he was the person in need of help. The pay is good and when he mentioned the ‘child’ in all sentences, I thought the ‘child’ doesn’t have a gender. Finally, I knew it was a girl, I stared at him before replying. “You said the pay is twice my pay here,” I asked again for a better confirmation. “Affirmative.” I did a little thinking, the job is not that bad. It’s just taking care of a child, so it’s not that scary, and I need the money to help my

XAVIER’S POV. After Alyssa left the office, I was bored and felt empty, so I decided to watch the CCTV footage from the mansion and as I clicked my laptop on, I saw Alyssa in the living chatting away with Mary, smiling and laughing like they’ve been friends for ages when they just met today. My baby walked downstairs in a cute yellow jumpsuit, smiling happily as she saw Alyssa. O..... Kay, she’s smiling does that means she likes Alyssa as her Nanny, I just pray she likes Aly so she could stay forever. ‘Who wouldn’t like Aly, she’s a charmer’ my mind taunted, and I definitely agreed. She’s a charmer indeed. After a long, boring day, I checked out of my office and went to the car park. I entered the car and drove home, I was late I know, and I’m getting an earful from Chelse when I get home, that’s if she’s still awake. I purposely stayed late so that I wouldn’t meet Alyssa and I left the office when I saw her bade goodbye to both Chelsea and Mary and walked out of the gate.

XAVIER’S POV. I woke up and still felt love me sleeping. Damn you, Ben, I got down from my bed and entered my bathroom. I took a nice cool shower to wake up my sleepy eyes, and it did work, after my bath I walked into my walk in closet and picked a nice blue tux to wear before going downstairs when I was sure Alyssa had already left. “Good morning sir.” Mary greeted, and I nodded then went to the dining for my breakfast. “What time did the Nanny come?” I asked as the chef placed my food on the table. “She came at six thirty, sir and they left before eight.” Mary replied, and I nodded. I ate my food peacefully and made to stand, but the noise from upstairs drew my attention. I faced Mary and asked, “what’s going on?” She shook her head and I sighed as I climbed the stairs and the noise led me to Ben’s room. I entered into the room and met a sober Ben holding his head as he puked his gust out in the toilet. “Good to see you again, Ben.” I said sarc

ALYSSA’S POV. The day dragged slowly and after a long boring day; it was time to go pick Chelsea from school. I entered the already waiting Bentley and Chris drove straight to the school. “Nanny Lyssa.” Chelsea squealed as she saw me. She hugged me tightly with a huge smile on her face. “Hey baby, how are you?” “I’m fine and you.” “I’m fine. Let’s go home.” I helped her into the car. I also climbed in. Chris exchange some words and free greeting from Chelsea as he drives home. Throughout her bath, Chelsea kept me busy with her non-stood chatting about her friends and teachers. “Baby, what do you want for lunch?” I asked, going through the food stuff. “The same cupcakes, those delicious ones.” She yelled excitedly, and I laughed. “Sure, let’s get to work.” We got to the kitchen, and it surprised me to see a chef, an actual chef. He was preparing lunch, and I felt bad. “Good afternoon, sir.” I greeted, and he turned swiftly. “Oh, hello dear.” He said, and I can hear a

ALYSSA’S POV. I stepped down from the cab and saw a familiar figure sitting on the ground crying. I walked towards the figure and squat down. “Hey, are you okay?” I asked as I touched her shoulder. She raised her head up, and I could see trails of tears on her face. “What’s wrong?” I asked again, and she sniffed. “I’ve s…something to tell you, Alyssa.” She said and sniffed again. “Go on.” I urged. She cleaned her face before looking at me. “It’s about Frank.” I paused and listened to what she was saying. I was angry, shocked, and happy. I didn’t know Frank could do such a thing to a young innocent girl. “Don’t worry, I will talk to him, although we’re not on good terms, but I’ll make sure to talk some sense into him, okay.” She nodded and wiped her tears. “Don’t cry again.” I stood up and picked her with me. “You need to go inside and rest, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.” I hugged her and watched as she entered their apartment. What on earth is wrong with Fra
