Maria POV

“Mommy!” Nicole screamed as soon as she walked into the house.

“I'm right here princess,” I yelled back from the kitchen as I added sauce to the chicken.

I could hear the sound of her tiny feet running towards the kitchen.

“Where is Emily?” I asked, tears blurring my vision as the knife sliced through the onion.

“She is coming” she said, climbing the stool that was made just for her to reach the kitchen counter.

I placed a kiss on her forehead as soon as she succeeded in climbing the

    Maria's POV The knock on the changing room door came three times, fast, the kind of knock that never means good news."Maria Bennett," Evelyn, a fellow house keeper's voice, cut in through the door before I'd even reached it, "Madame wants you in her office. Now."My hands stilled over the buttons of my uniform. The smell of bleach and lavender detergent hung thick in the small room, mixing with the tang of sweat from a twelve hour shift, and for a second I couldn't move, my body remembering something my mind hadn't caught up to yet."Did I do something wrong?" I asked through the door, my voice steadier than I felt."Just come," She said, and her footsteps faded down the corridor before I could ask anything else.Sarah looked up from her locker, a half eaten granola bar in her hand. "You look like you've seen a ghost.""I might have," I muttered, grabbing my cardigan off the hook.The walk to Madame Elena's office felt longer than it had any right to be. My shoes squeaked against th

    Alex’s POVMorning light spilled through the blinds of my office, but I hadn’t slept enough to appreciate it. I’d spent half the night staring at the ceiling, turning that child’s name over in my head until it stopped sounding like a word and started sounding like an accusation.Nicole Bennett.I rubbed a hand over my jaw, the stubble rough against my palm, I reached for the coffee Mark had left on my desk an hour ago. It's cold now but I drank it anyway.A knock sounded, and Mark stepped in before I answered, which told me whatever he had, he was in a hurry to hand it off.“You look like you didn’t go home,” I said, not looking up.“I didn’t, sir. I mean Mr. Alex.” He caught himself and set a folder on my desk like it might bite him.“Tell me you found something.”“Some of it.” He hesitated, and hesitation from Mark was never a good sign. “There’s no birth certificate on file listing a father. Just Maria Bennett, single mother, and the child, Nicole Bennett, born five years ago this

    Alex POV“Mr. Alex, the meeting starts in five minutes.” Mark came into my office to inform me.“Are the files ready?”“Whenever you need them Sir.”“Good. I will join you in the boardroom soon.”My phone rang, and it was my father again.After the party last night, he almost blew up my phone. He needs to learn that my life is not a business strategy or one of his contracts that he can manipulate at will.I glanced at my watch and it was already time for the meeting. I tucked my shirt in and stepped out of my office. “Go.. good morning Sir” Mr Edmond, one of my employees lowered his head as he greeted.“You look pale Mr Edmond, did you perhaps see a ghost?”“I didn't sir,” he said under his breath.“Hm. Have you corrected your reports?”“Yes sir”“One more mistake and you are off the project.”“Understood sir”He rushed into the conference room, as if his life depended on it, well, it actually did.I stepped into the room after him and a heavy silence followed. Conversation died, lau

    Alex's POV “Get the plane ready, we are flying back to London.” I handed Mark my briefcase and stepped into the car.“On it Mr Alex,” he replied.I took a deep breath as I leaned against the car seat. After hours of negotiations, we finally reached an agreement, and the contract was signed. “Any news on Daniel?” I asked.“He will be attending the party”“Good,” I closed my eyes and let the cool air kiss my skin. “He has no choice anyway.”“Drive. We don't have all day.” The soft hum of the engine filled the air as the city blurred past the tinted window. “Any information on that little girl?”“Not yet Mr. Alex, I'm working on it.”“Clearly you are running behind Mark,” I voice hardened. “You know I hate being kept in the dark.”I need to know what exactly the relationship is between Maria and that girl and why she looks like me.“It will be ready soon Mr. Alex.”“No excuses, get it done.”When we arrived the plane was already being prepared for departure.“Welcome Sir,” the pilot

    Maria's POV Finally done,” I exhaled sharply, with beads of sweat lining my forehead and strands of hair glued to my face. I definitely need a massage after this.I spent hours cleaning the second floor. If exhaustion has another name, it would be mine. Sarah and I were left to clean out forty-five rooms because the third person called out sick, at this point I was sure the management wanted us to collapse on the job.“Are you done?” I asked Sarah as soon as she stepped out of the room.“The last one,” she replied out of breath.I offered her my support, even though I needed it right now. “Let's do it together then.”We spent less than ten minutes cleaning up.We stood at the entrance of the room and admired our work, the bed was neatly spread, the floor was sparkling clean, and the smell of orange fragrance filled our nostrils.“We make such a good team,” Sarah grinned.“We sure do and I'm about to pass out.”She laughed. “Come on, let's freshen up.”I searched my uniform pockets fo
