Tracy dished the already cooked food, waving the thought of poisoning it aside that was forming inside her head.
She cautiously took it to the dining room, only to find her boss seated there already with his head facing down.She cleared her throat announcing her presence.He shot her a cold glare before sitting up.Tracy felt her heart beat accelerated, her hands suddenly turned sweaty. She has never been this nervous neither as she been as scared as this.She quietly placed the food down and turned to leave but he called her back."Have a taste" Cole said grumpily not trusting her enough.Tracy fixed a cool expression as she stuff the food in her mouth. She shrugged munching the food quietly." You're excused" he bluntly said.Tracy strode out of the dining room making her way to her own room.She got inside and closed the door with a click.Once inside, she let out a sigh of relief thanking God she had resisted the urge of poisoning him.She bounced on her king sized bed resting her gaze on the ceiling.Her mind wander to what he'd thought of her food since she had hurriedly cooked the food, she wasn't so sure it'd be so so tasty neither was she expecting the worse.Her stomach suddenly made a grumble noise followed by a deep yawn reminding her she hadn't eaten anything since she had left her home hastily.She decided to freshen up before going down to the kitchen to fix something for herself.She lazily stood up heading to the bathroom when she realized she didn't had an extra clothing." Damn" she growled angrily cursing her boss under her breathe.What had he expected her to put on since she had absolutely come with no clothing. He had stated it clear during the contract signing that she wasn't leaving the mansion not without his approval.She opened the door of her wardrobe expecting to find some clothes but to her dismay there was none.She slammed the door furiously."Damn him" she growled once again. She wasn't used to being bossed all around but since this was the only option to attain her sister's revenge she just had to endure."Maybe I should put a call through to Jacqueline" she thought.She picked her bag searching for her phone but she was interrupted by sudden knock at her door.She sprang to her feet alarmed, her heart beat incessantly.Her palm turned sweaty as she turned the door knob open.Straighting her posture."hi, Jerome" she greeted waving her right hand up, she felt relieved that it wasn't her grumpy boss."Hello" Jerome greeted back smiling." Uhmm" he stammered for a while. " Master Cole said you should placed down your order for your clothing and all other things you'd be needing". He announced stretching out a notepad and pen to her."Thanks" Tracy replied collecting the notepad and pen from him."He said to be quick about that" Jerome added glancing at his wrist watch.She quickly wrote down her orders, contemplating on writing her undies.After much thought she scribbled it down embarrassingly.She went through her lists again before handing it back to Jerome.Thanking him once again before closing the doorThey were done with dinner and was about going when a lady accidentally poured wine on Tracy dress. She had apologized and had offered to clean her up in the female restroom, Cole had objected to it insisting she clean up in his car but Tracy had agreed to it saying she couldn't come out all wet and smelly so she had to go clean up. Inasmuch as Cole wasn't comfortable with the idea he didn't argue with her so he let her have way deciding to wait patiently for her since he couldn't accompany her to a female restroom.Tracy and the lady had just gotten to the restroom when the lady started sobbing." I'm sorry, I hadn't meant to drench you, I'm just so broken" she sobs cleaning Tracy up."It's okay, Don't cry everything is going to be fine" Tracy assured her wiping her tears with her thumb."Of all day....he decided to break up with me on my birthday" The lady continued sobbing loudly this time.What a heartless fellow. Tracy thought. Couldn't he have waited or perhaps used another day
They finally arrived at the fancy restaurant that's lavishly decorated, combined with the low lighting making the atmosphere romantic, the fresh flowers, taste full artwork, candle light and classical music wasn't an exception.Cole led her to a table that was decorated with linen, table cloths and napkins. She sat down still scanning her eyes through the restaurant. She has never been to such an amazing place before neither had she seen one aside from books and television.Oh, no wonder he had sent her the dress, she'd have been looking stupid if she had dressed plainly to such a place.She wasn't less excited that he had urged her to remove the morflar.She snapped out of her thought when the waiter requested for her order. She wrote down her order and was suprised when Cole ordered for the same thing."Thanks for bringing me here" she appreciated breaking the awkward silence that had filled their table." The dress suits you" he complimented ignoring her appreciation.Her face sudd
Inside her room, Tracy took her time with the preparation of her supposed date. She sat up straight facing her mirror cleaning her face with a clenser and other sort of facials. She wasn't a fan of makeup so she didn't bother applying some. She likes her face being smooth and flawless, free from makeup be it light or heavy.She was almost done when she heard a sudden knock at her door. She stood up still clad with her robe, she adjusted it then walked to the door opening it."Master Cole said to deliver this package to you" Jerome said handing her a box."Oh!"she gawped collecting it from him." He's waiting outside in his car, Meet him there when you're done" he announced not waiting for her reply then left abruptly.Tracy took the package inside closing her door.As curious as she was to open the package,she laid it on her bed opening it carefully till what was present inside came in view.Tracy could not help but gasp at the sight before her. The Vermillion red satin gown with the
Tracy woke up feeling so weak, she stretched her arm and yawned.She opened one sleepy eye wondering why had her alarm didn't wake her up, she was sure It didn't rang. She had gotten used to being awoke by her alarm. She stretched her leg and almost screamed out, something was on her legs; her lap.No, it isn't something but someone; she could feel the exchange of gases that permeate through one's nose and the soft snores. Someone was sleeping on her lap!.She sat up rubbing her sleepy eyes wanting to be sure of her assumption as she stared at the sleeping figure before her."Master Cole?" She gasped.What was he doing in her room? She thought as her eyes Scan through the room, then it dawned on her that it wasn't her room but his.What then was she doing in his room. She thought again, For all she knew she couldn't remember going to his room. How then did she get here. she pondered."Oh!" She recalled having slept in that cold room he had ordered for her to be Locked in. How she ende

Chapter 20Tipsy, but not drunk he stood up and staggered to the door turning it open. He almost froze.The sight before him tore him to pieces.Jerome was carrying her in his arms and she looks somewhat half dead, her eyes had become puffy and her once white-creamy face had become pale and red."You're excused" he whispered to Jerome as he carried her away from him, closing the door behind him. He placed her gently on his bed sitting beside her, her body was so cold. he lifted his hand and touched her forehead, it was hot burning from fever."Damn it!" He growled.He contemplated on if he should leave her and meet Brenda in the kitchen or patiently wait beside her and await Brenda. He stood up deciding to run down to the kitchen before her fever worsen. He opened the door and dashed out of his room heading to the kitchen.In what seemed like seconds, he finally got there. He met Brenda still preparing it."Are you done" he questioned.Brenda flinched and turned to face him, she was s
