Lucy's pov;The next morning, when I was taking Danny to kindergarten, Mercy stopped me when I was almost out the door.She had a worried look on her face but she tried to hide it behind a frown, but I saw right through it."If you really want this wrist watch I can give it to you, just don't accuse my son of theft." Mercy said to me and I shook my head."I will not take it back because Cooper has not admitted to stealing it, when he admits that he stole it I will consider taking it,besides this isn't the first time something has gone missing in my room ,it's best my boss handles this." I told her and she frowned."Why are you trying to make things difficult ,when I have already told you I will give it back to you?" Mercy asked me angrily."I am running late ,I have to drop Danny off at the kindergarten,excuse me." I told her."Lucy ,don't bring trouble to my doorsteps or you won't like what I will do to you." Mercy threatened but I ignored her and left the house and took Danny to kin
Lucy's pov;A glared at Travis who walked up to us.If only he could read the expression on my face,he would know I wasn't happy to see him."Finally I have got to meet you. Whenever I come to your house to see you, your stepmom tells me you are at work ,I didn't know you were that busy." Travis said."What do you want?" I asked in a stiff voice."I have been calling you and you refused to answer my calls, is it because of what happened on our date I thought you were the one that wanted to leave?" He asked him."Travis, I don't have time for your nonsense today just leave me alone." I told him and turned to Leo."I am sorry but I don't think…""What do you mean i should leave you alone? you have to explain this clearly to me, why aren't you answering my calls?" Travis said, interrupting me."You can clearly see I was talking to someone before you came along." I said as I turned to him and he scoffed."I just want to know why you are not answering my calls." Travis said."Hey dude, she
Lucy's pov;I just stayed in the house quietly avoiding problems, because my step family just wants to get angry by any means possible.This morning I took Danny to kindergarten and went to work. My stepmom offered to pick Danny up from kindergarten today, because after the stolen wrist watch issue, she started acting nice to me.I needed help so I took her up on her offer.After my first part time job, I came back home at eleven am and I got into my room, opened my wardrobe ,at the bottom of my luggage there was a purse I was saving money inside, I put money into my purse and smiled.I have saved a lot.I know that in a few months Danny might not want to wear a tux anymore, but I was saving money to buy it for him, even if he doesn't want a tux, I might buy something else for him for his birthday.I was saving up to buy gifts for his birthday and I have saved a lot, that I can buy anything he wants for his birthday. I put away the purse into a safe place where it has been for a whi
Lucy's pov:Finally his mother has come to his rescue."Your son stole my money,he needs to give it back!" I yelled at her."Stop shouting at me Lucy,have you started accusing my son of stealing from you again? I won't let this one go, you better shut up your mouth!" She yelled back at me."Cooper came out of my room again and you told Danny not to tell me, how can you be that evil?" I asked Mercy who clenched her fists but said nothing."Cooper, don't you know that stealing that money is more like stealing from a child! You are just plain evil, you don't belong in this house, you belong in the streets!" I yelled angrily at Cooper as I took angry breaths."That's enough Lucy,you can't stay in this house and insult my family." Mercy shouted as Flora,my step sister, came into the kitchen."What's all the yelling for?" Flora asked."Your brother stole from me,tell him to give me my money." I told Flora.Cooper just stayed silent and didn't bother saying anything, because he knew he was g
Lucy's POV;I have avoided exchanging words with my step family ,because honestly it wasn't worth it. They always steal from me and I always let it go, but they still show no remorse and continued stealing from me when I was out of the house each day, busting my ass working just so I could provide for my son.I didn't own much, so our things were fitted in two luggages. I made sure to only take the essential things I needed, the rest of it I just left it in the wardrobe. If my step family wants to take it ,it's their business.Since I know I can't do anything to them ,it was best I leave. The next morning ,my plan to leave began.The first thing I did was to take Danny to kindergarten and then I headed to Mr. Desmond's company building.He told me that he needed to interview me, so I took a cab to his company building.Upon arriving at the company building,I got to understand that Mr Desmond is actually filthy rich ,so it made me wonder why his son was going to an ordinary kindergar
Lucy's POV;The next place the driver stopped was Danny's kindergarten, where we picked up the kids and we got into the car."Miss Lucy, why are you in the car with us?" Joseph, Desmond's son asked me in confusion."Well, I will be your nanny from now on." I told him and his eyes sparkled."Really? Daddy did it, yeah!" Joseph squealed.Daddy did it?Does it mean Joseph wanted me as a nanny since."Danny, we are going to stay together from now on." Joseph told Danny who was in the back seat with him."Does your Daddy stay at home as well?" Danny asked Joseph excitedly.Danny seems fond of Desmond."Yes Danny, when my Daddy comes back from work you will see him." Joseph told Danny who smiled."Yeah." The kids cheered, they were happy with the arrangement.I guess I don't have to worry about Danny not adjusting well to the new house. I talked to him about leaving our old house yesterday. He seemed a bit sad but I was glad he was happy now.The driver was driving for a while. I haven't be
Lucy's pov;Felicia, the head maid, wasn't even looking at the muddy shoes or the muddy floor, she was apologizing to him for not being here to welcome him back.Oh !I think I would get fired ,when I haven't even stayed up to a month.Oh my big mouth."I am so sorry sir, I have been mopping the floor since morning. I was just upset that I saw mud on the floor ." I apologized immediately and he narrowed his eyes on me."Did something happen sir ?" Felicia asked after my apology, but Mr Desmond didn't reply to her. He was still staring at me...more like glaring.His glare was intense."Why is she here?" He asked Felicia through gritted teeths and I furrowed my brows in confusion.Did he seem to forget that he was the one that hired me?He should see I was working."I haven't told her about some certain rules sir, I am really sorry she has just stayed here for two weeks." Felicia informed him.Felicia was an older woman, maybe in her mid 50's so I think she has stayed here long."I see,
Lucy's POV;Joseph and Danny got tired of sitting on the blanket on the grass ,so they stood up and began blowing bubbles and chasing after it ,while I watched them with a smile on my face and Desmond was eating the snacks.I smiled happily ,as I watched them play.Danny didn't have this much fun at my Stepmom's house, because he had no one to play with at home and my stepmom was always cooking so that was the only thing she did with him when I left him in her care."You seem to have gotten wary of me, did I do something wrong?" Desmond asked me out of the blue and I frowned."No sir ,you didn't do anything wrong, I just understood that you are my boss and I shouldn't act too friendly towards you." I replied not sparing a glance at him."That's why I wanted to apologize for what happened the other day." He said as he cleared his throat."There is no need to do such a thing, I understand I crossed a line and I apologized." I replied."But it seems I got you upset since you were mopping
