Lucy's pov;Desmond began to laugh at Tim's words and I wondered what could be so funny?Tim was obviously pissed at Desmond for getting involved in this, Tim is just stupid he doesn't know how to take no for an answer.I just hope this doesn't lead into a bigger argument because that was what I wanted to avoid in every possible way but it can't be helped, some people need to be put in their place."Are you even listening to yourself?" Desmond asked him."Do you know him?" Desmond asked me and I shook my head.I noticed he didn't want to call my name so that Tim won't know what my name is, he is a really cautious guy.No wonder his company is doing this well."No, I don't know him. I have told him I wasn't interested in whatever he had to say and he doesn't want to listen to me." I replied to Desmond's question as I glared at Tim."Did you hear the lady, why are you still standing in front of me like a man that lost his way ,won't you leave?" Desmond asked Tim and Tim scoffed."Look d

Desmond's POVWeekends are the best time of the week for me, I workout in the morning and then rest for the rest of the day.We were sitting in the living room, I was going through the messages on my phone, checking which ones I have to mark important ,so I could remember them tomorrow and which ones that were not important, so I could delete it , because I had many people that sent me messages asking me for money or help.It's a good thing I had a work phone and a personal phone, if not I would have deleted all the messages on my phone by now.My secretary handles some of the messages but I like handling the rest.Joseph, my son , came and stood in front of me and I looked up from my phone and looked at him curiously."Joseph,what do you want?" I asked him and he entangled his hand together in front of him.I knew that pose, he wanted to ask me for something."So Daddy, I thought about where we should go today and I think we should go and have a family dinner, with Miss Lucy and Dann

Lucy's POVI smiled at Desmond's suggestion to sue my step family for stealing from me. I know I have considered it,but right now I don't think it's worth wasting my energy on.They can eat the money they stole from me and it will choke them."I don't think there's any need for that, I have moved on ,I just don't want to see their faces ever again." I said as I took a gulp from my bottle of orange juice."Okay." He said.I suddenly remembered crazy Helen and decided to ask him about her, because I don't know her deal."That's right I wanted to ask you about Helen, who is she?" I asked him.Even though I didn't want to pry into his personal life,I was still curious.The thought of him dating someone, left a tight feeling in my chest.I don't know why I feel at peace, knowing that Desmond is single and I don't think he is looking for anyone to date right now."Oh right Helen, you told me she might have followed you to a cafe, you know I told you she's my ex-girlfriend right?" He asked

Lucy's povMercy, my stepmom has bad timing.What does she want now?I thought she had given up ,when she saw I wasn't willing to help her.I didn't want answer her call , because I knew that whatsoever she had to say was unreasonable,but she called back three more times so I decided to answer her call, i wondering what could be so important that she was calling me this way."Lucy, so you finally decided to answer the call?" She asked me in a loud voice."Mercy, please just say what you want and hang up." I told her."Can't I call my daughter from time to time, to ask how she is faring?" Mercy asked me and I cringed at the word daughter.Mercy my step mum never regards me as a daughter, but a step daughter ,so I know she was up to something."Mercy, you have only one daughter, you have told me that many times, don't start saying things that aren't true." I reminded her."I have two…." Mercy tried to say."Just tell me what you want." I cut her off, I was already angry because of Andre

Lucy's POVDesmond refused to say anything after his son said he wished to have me as a mum.I honestly didn't know what to reply and I thought that Desmond would get involved, but he just kept quiet and stared at us."Oh Joseph,don't worry, I will always be here when you need me,okay?" I asked Joseph.I think that was the answer that Joseph needed ,because he jumped up in happiness."Yes, I want to draw you as well." Joseph said happily."Then go and get your drawing materials, so you can draw me." I told Danny and Joseph and they ran to get it.I decided to steal a glance at Desmond, because he had been awfully quiet.Our eyes met, he was clearly just staring at me without saying a word, I looked away and he stood up and headed upstairs to his room without saying a word to me.I wondered if I actually did something wrong ,because I didn't actually reply to Joseph's question.Joseph and Danny each drew a family picture and coloured it, they showed me the picture ,a man and a woman an
