James turned the handles of the door as he stepped in.
"Are you in?". Anne yelled from the bathroom.
"Cloth yourself with something, I'm coming in". He announced.
Anee let out a slight groan as she patiently waited for him.
He stared at her for a second through the transparent door. Letting out a soft sigh, he walked towards the and pulled it with little energy, leaving a stare at her before making his way out.
"Thank you". She yelled after he left.
Anee took a little while in the closet, in search of a perfect night wear that wasn't revealing. She walked silently into the room, hoping that James was either at sleep or changed his mind about sharing a room with her.
She let out a sigh of relief as she found him with his eyes closed, at least one of her prayers were answered. She gently lay down a blanket, preparing to sleep when his voice thundered and shook her off her feet.
"What do you think you're doing?".
"I…m, I'm creating a space to…
"I won't responsible if you catch a cold, so do yourself the favor of using the bed". He said, as he closed his eyes again.
"Bu..t, but sir, I won't catch a cold".
James didn't utter a word to her but instead closes his eyes in pretence of sleep. Anne on seeing he wasn't ready to prolong the conversation had no choice but share a bed with her boss.
The ray of sun left a reflection of light on Anne's face. She let out a soft yawn as she sat on her butt. She recalled the previous last night and jumped out of her bed, wondering where he went and how long she slept.
The doors swung open as a house staff walked in.
"Good morning ma'am. They are ready to leave". She announced.
"What!". I yelled and began to gather my stuff.
"Do you need help, ma'am?". The staff asked.
"No, no, I'm almost done". She carried her bag and made her way out of the mansion.
Her eyes caught James, who was standing beside the door with his both hands in his pocket. She had a feeling, he was waiting for her.
"Girl therapy huh?". He scoffed.
"Good morning sir". I portrayed as she got into the car.
He came in immediately after she did. Sophia, as usual, has her headset on and her iPad.
"Had so much fun sleeping huh?".
"I….I…". She stuttered.
"You were still asleep before and after the meeting". He said, interrupting her.
"Oh my goodness!". She exclaimed. "I didn't even recall that".
"Mmm". He scoffed while staring at the missed calls that popped on his screen.
"Micheal meet me at the house in thirty minutes". He said, as he dialed the number.
******
They arrived at the house exactly in thirty minutes and this left Anne wondering how he knew the exact time.
"Get the limousine ready, I have a flight to catch". James told his driver.
A young lanky man stood beside the mansion. He was dressed in a leather suit, he looked rich as well. Anne saw the astonishment as he saw her.
"Micheal". James called and walked towards him.
"Good day, Boss". The young man portrayed with his eyes still on Anne.
"Are all the documents ready?". James inquired.
"Yes Boos. I've got them all ready".
"I had a family event last night. We should leave immediately". James said while walking towards the limousine.
Micheal has been James business associate for years. They knew each other since their early days and when they had nothing. Micheal was always around James and was aware about, almost everything going on in James life.
"I saw Amanda, are you re considering taking her back?". Micheal asked immediately they got into the limousine.
"What? Hell, no! She almost ruined my life and It would only be foolish of me to let her in". James replied.
"And the other girl. Who's she?". Micheal asked with so much interests.
"Oh! Annie. She's Sophia's Nanny". James replied as he focused on his phone.
"Sophia's Nanny". Micheal murmured as he left a stare at James.
He took out his cellphone from his pocket, he typed in some letters and left a smirk on his face.
"New target: Annie, Sophia's Nanny".
Those were the words that made up the letter he sent.
****James Mansion****
Amanda sat at the entrance of the stairs, as she patiently waited for Anne.
"Look who's back". She laughed, clapping her hands. "Thought you were never going to return! And who's going to save you now? Who.
"I was only obeying instructions, ma'am. I didn't do anything wrong". Annie replied.
"Obeying instructions you say? By taking my place huh?
"I apologize ma'am".
"That can't change anything. You're leaving this house today. Go in and pack your things". She said and was about making her first step when Anne voiced out.
"I can't".
"What did you just say?". Amanda thundered.
"I'm sorry but I can't leave". Annie shruded.
"And why is that?". Amanda voiced out as she took a step back.
Amanda raised her hands against Annie to slap her but didn't go through as Annie held her hands.
"You have no right to hit me again". Anne smirked as she let go of Amanda hands as she walks away.
Amanda gasped in disbelief. She couldn't believe what had just happened.
"Rachel! Rachel!". Amanda yelled.
"Yes ma'am". Mrs Rachel ran towards her.
"Get that bitch out of my house! Throw her things out or else you loose your job". She thundered.
"I'm sorry ma'am but it's not in my power to do anything. Mr James is". Mrs Rachel responded.
"How dare you!". Amanda slapped her.
"No! No! Why would you raise your hands on her". Annie yelled from the kitchen entrance as she ran towards Mrs Rachel and pulled her from Amanda grip.
"Nobody is going to save you both today! Count yourself unlucky today". She laughed.
