I thought I could hold it in a little while longer, keep pretending to like her but when she mentioned being angry with Olivia. I couldn’t hold it in anymore. Who the hell did she think she was? She couldn’t even compare to Olivia.
Yes, her grandmother died, but that was not Olivia’s fault. That was what she kept telling her as well but now she was changing and blaming her. I couldn’t accept that. I didn’t get what she wanted from Olivia.
I knew for a fact that she wanted to go and visit her. it might have been Luke or Marcus who stopped her from going there. I took out my phone and made a call to one of Luke’s men. “Mr Jones.” he answered.
“Keep an eye on the nanny, she is in the old house. Anything out of the ordinary, contact me.” I cut the call. I didn’t want to wake up when it was already too late with Lupita. If she was going to be a threat, then I would have her removed before she could do damage.
My phone vibrated in my hand and Ethan’s name flashed on the screen. Oh, now he wasn’t scared of me, the moron. “Ethan?”
“Where are you?”
“You know where I am, let’s not pretend like you are not keeping tabs on me.” silence followed, I wondered when he was going to get over that fear nonsense. “Don’t come to the office today.” I frowned.
If I didn’t go my mother was going to nag me again. She wanted me to focus on business again, I got where she was coming from, and I didn’t want her to stress or worry about me. so, I agreed to start today.
I went to Lupita to take her to the office with me, but she ruined it. “Why?”
“If you are coming then tell me in advance so I can leave.” He was at the company, something must have been wrong, or he went to update our systems. “Okay.” I cut the call.
I wasn’t going to tell him shit, he needed to get over himself and get used to having me around. I was lonely while he was busy being scared for no reason.
People like Lupita were the ones who made people like me appear to be monsters when they were the ones who brought out the monster in us. I was nice to her, but she didn’t appreciate that.
She wanted more and I couldn’t give her that. how naïve could she be to think I would even look at her when she knew exactly that my heart belonged to Olivia?
