Edward’s pov
It took everything in me not to ignore Aiden’s call to grab the most perfect tits I’ve come across and suck them hard before releasing my sexual frustration in uhhh…. I sighed realizing I didn’t even know her name.No woman has ever got my body as hard as she has in years and I wanted nothing more than to bury myself deep in her.Work sure called at the wrong time but work comes first always. Some troubles needs fixing and that took the whole night again. Good thing there’s someone to look after…“Uncle!” My little niece ran towards me as soon as I got inside, I carried her up and noticed she was looking so happy.“The smile is big Lily.” I pointed out and she nodded, she looked around before placing her tiny hand beside my ears,“The nanny is leaving” she wispered“What? But why?” I asked her“I don’t know” she shrugged avoiding my eyes“Lily?” I called“Uncle!” She called back“This is your fifth nanny in two weeks, what did you do this time?” Asked with a cocked eyebrow“Nothing!” She said poutingI placed down and called for the nanny, she came out and indeed she was with her things.“Where are you going nanny?” I asked calmly knowing that my little she-devil had done some trick to make her leave on her own.“I really have to leave my Howard, it’s an emergency” that is what they all say“You really can’t stay?” I asked“I can’t sir, I’m really sorry” she said looking downI looked to Lily’s direction and she threw her face to the celling. Sighing tiredly,I called her.“Lily. Tell the butler to get your nanny’s pay” I instructed“No sir you don’t have to pay me, I’ve only worked for three days” the poor woman said“Don’t worry about it ma’am” I told herLily got the pay and the woman left, she was about to sneak out when i caught her by the waist and sat her on the dining table.“Now tell me young lady, what did you do?” I asked feigning a stern look“It was really her decision to leave, I only told her she had like my mom’s hair and I always feel emotionally hurt looking at her face” she said nonchalantly“Jesus Lily! Your mom is a blonde.” I almost yelled“Well she believed it, didn’t she?” She smiled mischievously“You didn’t tell her your mother is late did you?” I question looking into her eyes“Would she have felt so bad?” She stated nonchalantlyI couldn’t help the smile looking at her smart head.“You know it’s really wrong to say she’s dead when she’s not right?” I tried talking to her“Well she isn’t here right? It’s makes no difference” she said sadly“you little rascal! Come here” I said pulling her in a tight hug.I took Lily in after the death of my brother three years ago, his wife left after a month of his death, she said she couldn’t become a single mother at such a young age. She left Lily with us and moved to London. I loved Lily like my very own since her birth and it took me nothing to now assume the position of a father in her life.Lily turned seven a month ago and has rejected every nanny since then, in her words, she is old enough to look after herself and do not need any any adult involved in any areas of her life. She wanted to be like me that isn’t babysitted all the time. So she finds tricks to make her nannies leave. I can’t be with her all the time so I kept on hiring Nannies hoping she would accept one and stopped being stubborn but there’s not been any success with that.“Uncle you smell odd and your hair is almost like a bird nest” Lily suddenly said while trying her best not burst out with laughter.“I will go take my bath now” I told her and rushed upstairs to wash this sexy stranger off me. My phone rang halfway the stairs,“Hi Anold” I said into the phone“Edward, where have you been?you’re needed here right now” he said“It can’t wait?” I asked“Not sure, why?” He questioned“Because Lily sent her nanny away this morning” I said“Boss baby at it again” he chuckled“Well the GLK clients wants out” he said sadly“What? Why?” I asked“No clue, you need to be here as soon as possible, you can bring Lily, I will look after her” he said“okay man, help me find another babysitter please” I said ending the call“Lily? Get ready, we’re going to the office together” I yelled out for her to hear.“Yayyyy!!” I head her shout out with excitement.~~~~The meeting with the clients didn’t go well, they claim not to know the reason their boss wanted to pull out of their contract with us so I made a call directly to the man and he insisted on fixing a one on one meeting. I need to fly to London by tomorrow evening. This contract is worth billions and I can’t let the company suffer such loss. Traveling to London isn’t the issue but what I’m going to do with Lily.>>>The next day<<<Fortunately, Anold found someone from his girlfriend’s co-worker and I have to meet her today. I already pleaded with Lilly to behave until I return from London and thankfully she agreed.“She’s here” the maid came to inform me of the nanny’s arrival“Let her in please” I told her“You know this is unnecessary right?” Lily asked for the nth time“you need someone to look after you Lily” I responded“I don’t, I could go to your office while you’re gone and help you work” she reasoned making me laugh“Good afternoon Mr Howar….” The voice slurred making me look up.My eyes grew wide as I stare at the woman who gave me one of the best sex of my life.“Are you the babysitter?” I asked surprised“Yes” she hesitated before answeringNow why is a woman like her coming to babysit a child?“Lily, go to your room so I can talk to our guest” I said with a fake smile“Okay uncle” she said and made her way upstairs. I waited until she was gone before talking to the lady in front of me.“Why are you here?” I asked angrily“Trust me, I had no idea this was your house or you were the one needing a nanny” she said honestly“It’s doesn’t matter who’s child, why are you offering to look after a child?” I asked harshly. The hurt in her eyes at the realization of what I meant pinched my heart but I was right.“You have no right to judge me Mr Howard” she said blinking“I’m not judging you ….” I said realizing that I didn’t even know her name.“What’s your name?” I asked“Katherine” she said“I’m Edward Howard” I said forwarding my hand for a handshake“Don’t you think I’m not worthy of your handshake?” She asked sarcastically.“I’m sorry Katherine, but I can’t let my little niece be babysitted by someone that works in a club and …” i said feeling bad for hurting her“Please, I really need this job Mr Howard” she pleaded but I couldn’t bring myself to associate Lily with a woman that fucks around like that. Call it judging but I have to be responsible for my niece.“Fine! If you choose to judge me then feel free, you’re the reason I lost my job in the first place” she said almost in tears“I’m sorry about that Katherine and I’m willing to pay you for the troubles with your job but not this job please” I reasoned with her but she instead glared hard at me.“ I don’t want your money asshole!” She said and walked out.“Kath…” I tried calling out to her but the ringing of my cell phone cut me off“Yes Anold?” I answered“You don’t plan on getting the clients more angry right” he asked“What are you talking about?” I asked“If you leave now, you will be five minutes late to the meeting” he saidFuck I lost track of time.I dropped the phone without bothering to hang up the call. I ran outside in search of Katherine.“Where’s the woman that was just here?” I asked my gatekeeper“She left already sir” he responded. I dashed out of the gate and saw her walking away.“Katherine!” I called getting her attention“What is it?” She asked harshly“ I need you to babysit her for a few days ” I said“Huh? You want a whore to babysit your niece?” She asked hurt evident in her voice“I didn’t call you that” I defended , and grabbed her arm“Oh please, just let me go” she said“Three days! Just look after her for three days and I will pay you five hundred dollars” I offered hoping she would agree, I need to be on way immediately and I can’t let Lily stay on her own, she might decide to try cooking to prove she is big enough and end up hurting herself.“Fine, but on one condition, you will have to pay me a hundred and fifty first. I need to pay for my brother’s treatment” she said in a sad tone“I will pay you in full but you need to start now” i said“Now?” She asked with wide eyes“I have to be in London In less than 8 hours”I immediately strapped in my seatbelt as instructed and looked up at Edward. I guess I was expecting some sort of motivational or reassuring speech, but doesn’t a person have to have a heart before that could happen? Yeah and he obviously doesn’t have one.My luck had to be this bad? First time on a private jet and it was going to crash? Edward was indifferent though, he just there across me staring me with a questioning look.I already gave up any hope of getting any word from him until he spoke calmly.“The call is just for safety caution.It’s probably just fog” he said in the most calming tone I’ve ever heard from him “How on earth are you this relaxed?” I asked him surprised “Because I know it’s nothing, he can’t see ahead doesn’t mean there's something there or at least enough to crash us…” he explained His words brought me calm, I was beginning to relax and believe nothing was going to happen until he spoke again.“And even if there is going to be a crash, Arthur got it. He’s
“Good. So we met in college, dated for a while, lost contact and only reconnected at the reunion last year” he explained “I didn’t go to some fancy college tho, I attended community college” Edward was beyond shocked , he stared at me like he was waiting for me to say it was a joke.I just gave him a ‘duh‘ look when he wasn’t talking “Are you serious?” He asked “Yes I am. Why? is that good enough? Too low for you?” I asked angrily. I was really offended. It wasn’t easy to get my associate degree, I struggled to get across and graduate, took several loans despite the low tuition. I was still in on student loan and one dick head just sat there looking horrified just because he was born into a silver spoon.“Fuck!” He exclaimed lowlyOh if looks could kill. Edward Howard would have been a dead man that instant.“Take me back to LA” I demanded not wanting to say another word.“What do you mean?” “Take me back to LA, you can go ahead and find a graduate from Harvey Mudd College” “Tha
“Can I kiss you?” My ears are definitely playing tricks on me right? How can someone say that all of a sudden? But I couldn’t step back, my feet refused to move. Being so close to him and feeling his right breath on my neck felt Like some type of jinxing and guess what? It’s was so working!Comfortably getting lost in his icy blue eyes, I let him come close. From such proximity all I could say is that God definitely cheated because how could one man be this perfect? His perfect looking lips were seconds away from mine and I couldn’t wait to get a taste. Just like the night I first met him. I could literally feel his lips touching mine when the door suddenly bursts open, fuck!!I wished I could scream at the cockblock, a girl I remember meeting on my first day here, Ama or whatever she said her name was.“Sorry!, Mr Howard I was just resuming back to work” she said almost immediately “It’s okay Ameera, get to work now ” Edward responded in his usual cold tone She rushed off to th

CHAPTER 18Katherine’s pov A knock at my door woke me up but I was too tired to even raise a finger so I lay still but the knock persisted, followed by Lily’s tiny voice calling out to me. I checked the bedside clock and it was 4:45, what could be the problem? Why is Lily up at this hour? I rushed to open the door immediately. “Oh finally!” She rolled her eyes. What?! “Lily, are you okay?” I asked ignoring her attitude “Yes I am, why do you look so worried?” She asked while making herself comfortable under my blanket “Well maybe because you’re banging my door in the middle of the night?” I answered “It’s technically morning Katherine” she said, patting beside her, signaling for me to come to bed in my own room and bed ? “That’s not the point young lady, you scared me” I said joining her anyway “I’m sorry but not sorry” “What does that even mean?” “Well, I didn’t mean to scare you but it feels weirdly good for someone that is not my uncle to worry for me” she explain
Chapter 17The tension in the air was already suffocating, I kept wondering why a man he just acknowledged as dad would be so cold towards him. The coldness and judgment in his eyes as he seized me up didn’t surprise me but to his own son too?He wouldn’t be the first person to assume I was a whore at first glance especially at the club house, I always found it amusing how being poor was enough reason to be seen in that light. The thought of leaving to my room to give them some privacy crossed my mind but that would only make the grumpy man feel he was right or worsen the whole issue so instead I sat quietly looking everywhere but at them until ‘MARRIAGE!’“Because I already have a fiancée… that’s her over there” My head moved at an unhealthy speed towards the Howards only to realize that Edward was pointing in my direction. I looked behind me for a second wondering if there was an invisible person there.“Katherine baby, please come down here” he said with a cheeky smile. my ears
