Chapter 8

Sierra POV

"it's because he has a child" A familiar voice said. Lucy.

"What"the other lady responded.

"My mind went blank,I could not believe my ears.

"He is only marrying her because he needs someone to take care of his child"Lucy talked arrogantly.

"How do you know he has a child "one of them asked her.

"Does that even matter" lady two answered lady one.

"Why else do you think Lucas Luciano will marry Sierra"Lucy said arrogantly.

"That is true,her family's business is basically going bankrupt and Sierra is not even that beautiful " Lady one said.

"Maybe he likes fat girls"Lady two said.

Lucy snickered.

"He definitely doesn't like fat girls,you know,he would have gotten married to me but he said that he doesn't want me taking care of his illegitimate son " she said.

"So she is going to be just a nanny for his son"Last two said mockingly.

They all burst into laughter.

I could not hold my anger in anymore.

"She does look like a nanny"she said.

And they continued laughing.

I felt like I would explode any moment from then. So I decided to face them,let them say those shit to my face.

"Wow"I said while clapping as I opened the door "You lot have a lot to say about me"

"Well,it is my engagement ceremony so I guess it is about me"I said smiling at them.

"So you were evesdropping on our conversation "Lucy said angrily.

"Your conversation that is about me "I told her as a matter of fact "and my fiance".

"Well then, everything you heard is true, how do you feel knowing you are getting married to just to be a nanny"Lucy said trying to intimidate me.

"Funny"I laughed.

"Did he say that to you when he asked you to get out of his bed"I asked her.

The two women with her gasped.

Lucy was downright flustered.

I know a jealous person when I see one.

Lucy's behaviour today showed she was angry I am the one getting married to Lucas,which means she knows him and her talk in the restroom showed that they were sleeping with each other.

And judging by my interaction with him,he is definitely a fuck boy,he does not have the time for romance. So,she is definitely his play thing.

"How dare you speak to me like that"she demanded.

She was taken aback as I have never spoken to her like that before.

When she picks on Mia and I while we were I school,Mia does all the talking and I never say a word to her,not because I was scared of her but because if my father heard of it,he might not let me finish my education and get angry that I upset the Giovanni’s daughter.

"I will speak to you however ever I want considering that you say trash about me"I told her.

She sighed and breathed in and out and said "well,I am the one your fiance fucks and it will remain so even after your marriage"

"Well then,let me also remind you"I said moving closer to her "I am going to be his wife not you,he choose to marry me,not you,I am what her wants not you".

"I want you to always remember that and that you will always be his play thing, nothing more" I told her assertively.

She was dumbfounded.

I turned and was about to walk to the door when I remembered something.

"And also,I am not some fat pig like you called it,I am a beautifully shaped woman"I told her.

"And I am a size 14,you know,just incase you are wondering "I said while I walk away.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,I am going to kill her"I heard Lucy scream from the restroom.

I smiled to myself.

"I have been looking for you since,why did you take long in the restroom"I heard Mia say.

"Mia,he has a child "I said to her absent minded.

"What,who?"She asked.

"Lucas,he has a child"I told her.

"No,he doesn't"Mia said to me.

"Yes,he does,I heard Lucy talking about it"I told her.

"Then it must be a lie"she said.

"No, Lucy's father and the Vincent Luciano are friends,I think,so he must know and must have told his daughter or maybe Lucas told her"I said to her.

“Why would he tell her” Mia asked.

“They sleep with each other”I told her.

“Ohhhhhhh,no wonder she was angry” she said.

"Oh my gosh"she said surprised "but if he has a child your father would have told you right?

"No,he wouldn't,all my father cares about is securing this marriage, he would care less about the child"I told her.

“No wonder he told me to get pregnant for him” I said.

"At the end of the day,I am the one left to be the nanny of a child I have never met”. I said to her.

"No wonder he was willing to marry me,turns out it was to nanny his son" I said loquaciously.

"Slow down Sierra,I'm sure he has plenty of nannies to take care of his son,he surely doesn't need you to take care of his son.

I guess she's right,he definitely does not need me to care for his son.

"I guess you're right,I am just crashing out,I mean why choose to marry me and not other ladies". I said.

"I need a drink "I said "to clear my head".

"We could definitely use a drink or two "Mia said as a waiter approach us.

She took a glass of wine from him. "Thank you"she said as she drank the wine.

You can drop all of them,thank you"I said as the waiter approached me with the wine,he dropped the wine and walked off.

"Is it not too much for you Sierra"Mia said eyeing the table.

It was a total of seven glasses of wine.

"I can take it, besides I need to clear my head"I said to her drowning myself in the wine.

"Well,maybe he just needs a wife urgently or maybe he likes you"she said nudging me with her shoulder.

I chuckled.
