ALEXA’S POV

It’s been over thirty minutes now since an angry Nolan kicked me out of the room. What should I do? Call Mr. Brown and inform him about the situation? How can I tell him that his stubborn son has refused to acknowledge his call? Should I go back to the room to call him again? Perhaps a second try might work.

I turned around to take a step towards his room when the door opened, Nolan was dressed in a jean trouser and a white T-shirt which made me raise a brow.

“Took you long enough” I muttered and he glared at me. Oops! I guess he must have heard me.

“So she’s the bitch who got herself invited into your room huh?” The snarky voice of the lady who I assumed was his girlfriend met my ears and I rolled my eyes the moment I turned away from them.

“I will be right back babe” Nolan said and went back into the room.

“Listen and listen carefully” the lady without a name yet, who I would call Nolan’s girlfriend, said pulling my hair slightly which made me yelp out in pain.

“Nolan is mine. Mine! Mine alone. I could clearly see you eyeing him up but just so you know, a lowlife like you wouldn’t attract him”

“He goes for ladies with class and that is why he is with me, so I would advise you to keep your strength and focus on the thrash you can attract '' she finally left my hair and I glared at her. If looks could kill, I guess we both would have been dead by now.

“Nolan is a pig and way below my standards, don’t worry, he is yours and I don’t attract his type of thrash” I said and I walked away from her.

I was fuming, who does she think she is to say such words to me? The only reason I am tolerating her is because I promised Cody, I will wait to get this over and done with.

“Miss. Martin,” a man in a black suit called out and when I saw him standing close to a car, I knew he might be the driver Mr. Anthony had spoken about.

“I would just wait for Nolan… Mr. Nolan to arrive” I said and waited, patiently tapping my foot on the floor.

Soon later, Nolan and his Barbie girlfriend decided to grace us with their presence.

Nolan opened the door and the moment I saw Barbie stepping into the car, I couldn’t help to control my mouth as I voiced out.

“Why is she coming along? I don’t think there was a time your father mentioned she was coming” I said.

“And I am not seeking for your permission or that of my father’s to bring her along with me” he glared.

“Whatever, that ain't my business anyways” I scoffed and turned to take the front seat when he pulled me back.

“And Alexa, the next time you barge into my room again then trust me, you wouldn’t like the outcome” he warned.

“Am I understood?” He questioned in a bold tone that got goosebumps on my arm.

“Yes,” I muttered silently.

“Good” he said then got into the car, I stood for some seconds before I finally got into the car.

The arrival to the Brown’s construction inc. made me open my mouth as I stared in awe. Just how rich were these people? I glanced at the rear view mirror at the arrogant pompous ass who doesn’t know what it means to work rather than to insult people.

I caught his gaze and I instantly returned my gaze back to the buildings.

I don’t know what was making me act like this, the moment I caught his gaze the image of him naked and his hardened length came to mind.

The door opened and for the millionth time today I have been lost in my thoughts.

I quickly got out of the car and Mr. Rude and Barbie came out of the car.

Mr. Rude took up the lead and I guess he already knew where we were going so I just followed him while I admired the building at the same time.

 We arrived at the front of a door which had a boldly written Mr. Brown on the golden template that was at the top.

“Oh welcome, Alexa” Mr. Anthony said and threw a nod to his son and Barbie, since he didn’t say anything about her being present I got rested.

“I can see you and your Nanny are having a good relationship” Mr. Brown said and Nolan scoffed which made me roll my eyes.

“She is intruding on my privacy, father,” he said.

“Does she go to the bathroom with you?” He asked in which Nolan replied no.

“Does she stay in the same room with you?” He asked.

“No father”

“So then how is she intruding if I may ask?” He asked.

“In a lot of ways you wouldn’t think, first she came into my room without my permission…”

“With reasons okay, I knocked countless times but you weren’t answering the door which left me no choice than to go in” I defended, he was making it sound as if I got into the room on purpose.

“Oh will you cut the crap! That wasn’t your intention!” He yelled at me.

“Oh really? Pray tell me what it is then?” I scoffed.

“That is enough you two!” Mr. Anthony yelled, grabbing our attention.

“It’s okay babe, she’s just an attention seeking whore” Barbie said and I glanced at Mr. Anthony who shot me a pleading look.

“I have come up with a decision, in order for her to do her work efficiently and effectively, she would have to reside in the house with us,” he said.

“Wha?!”

“Hell no!”
