Helen just finished tucking Calvin to bed. Stepping out of his room and gently shutting the door, She bumped into the last person she wanted to see. Tessie Sleeves.
Helen wanted to roll her eyes badly but she was able to stop herself.
“Where are your manners? Even if my husband told you not to receive any orders from me, does that mean that I don’t deserve to be greeted in my own house?” She spat, giving Helen an ugly glare.
“Good evening, Mrs Sleeves,” Helen greeted with a small bow, then proceeded to take her leave.

THREE DAYS LATERAdam Sleeves did his possible best to ensure that he got to Chicago earlier than they all expected but that was impossible because there were a lot of things that needed his attention in Germany.But he was very glad when the three days trip came to an end. For the first time in like forever, Adam found himself very eager to return home.Whenever Adam Sleeves traveled out of the country on business trips, he was known to spend extra days or even weeks, to enjoy himself. Literally anything to keep him away from Tessie Sleeves. But it was different this time around. He couldn’t wait to get home to his kids and Kara.

“Whatever is on my body is none of your business, Mr Sleeves. You’re invading my privacy. This is not how a gentleman behaves. Please quit staring at my boobs and help yourself out of my room! The last thing I want is you being here or your wife walking in on us.”Adam didn’t seem to listen to all that came out of Helen’s mouth and neither was he affected by the glare she was giving him. He brought up his right hand and ran a finger over the small tattoo, indirectly touching her boob.Helen slapped her Boss’s hand away from her chest area and tried to escape from his hold but Adam wasn’t having it.&l

THE NEXT DAYAdam literally spent the whole day in his room. He woke up late, and on the bad side of the bed. He poured himself a glass of alcoholic drink, went over to the desk area in his room and did some work on his laptop for hours. He took a nap in between, after which he continued working.When it was almost 5 pm, Sleeves reached for his phone and decided to leave Kara a text message. He told her to get the kids ready as he would be leaving with them at 6 for Ollie’s party.Adam wasn’t one that spent so much time in the shower so he only went into the bathroom at fifteen minutes to 6 pm. He was out in no time, then started getting read

“Nervous?” Adam asked the moment he started the car engine, taking a glance at Kara who was seated beside him in the front passenger’s seat. She had desperately wanted to sit at the back with the kids but the car Adam was taking out this evening wasn’t that spacious. The back could only fit in two car seats so she had no choice but to unwillingly sit in front with him.“You could have taken one of the other cars.” She mumbled as he drove out of the mansion.“I could, but I didn’t.”“Why?” She asked immediately.

“Language, mister! My goddaughter is here.” Jessica warned her husband, knowing the reason for his reaction.For the first few seconds, Oliver didn’t know what to say. The atmosphere was getting kind of awkward so Adam came to the rescue. “I see Philip is here. We have something important to discuss with him, remember?”“Please take good care of her,” Adam said to Jessica who nodded immediately.Then Adam and Oliver took their leave.“I’m so sorry about that. My husband can be crazy at times.

Helen, Adam and his kids were literally the last set of people to leave Oliver’s home. Ollie was literally catching up with Adam while Jessica did all her best to get along with Helen. They ended up leaving Flint's mansion at almost 10 pm. Both kids had fallen asleep by the time they got home. Helen carried Anna to her room, changed her, and put her to bed while Adam did the same for Calvin.Stepping out of Anna’s room, Helen suddenly felt thirsty so she proceeded to the kitchen for bottled water. She was gently gulping down the water by the counter when she absentmindedly saw her boss walk in.Placing the almost empty bottled water on the counter, Helen felt a pair of arms protectively wrapped around her waist. From behind, She felt

“So this is the bullshit you do with this Whore??? In my kitchen? Don’t you both have any shame?”“Just shut the fuck up!” Adam said with gritted teeth. He was in no mood to deal with Tessie and he was happy that Kara still had her head on his chest, looking away from Tess.“Never!!! You’re definitely not going to hear the end of this. I know you’re a miserable pathetic soul but how in the hell would you stoop so low to fuck your staff? What sort of disgusting pleasure do you get from that?”“Been suspecting you for a while and I’m

“Nothing too special but I would rather stay here than to share the master bedroom with Tessie,” Adam said when he saw Kara taking in the surroundings.“You call this ‘nothing too special’?” She mumbled, coming to a halt a few steps away from the bedside.“As compared to the master bedroom.” He answered, standing beside her.“You were always too scared to drink. Should I give you something that will help calm your nerves?”“Yes, please.” She answered almost immediately.
