Chapter 1

Estella’s pov I took a deep breath as I sighted the mansion that had been my home for two weeks now. The stately manor loomed at the end of the oak-lined drive, its stone façade draped in ivy and towers rising like a fortress against the sky.I felt the thrill of excitement whenever I thought of working for the last family I ever thought I would work for. The Mendez family. I averted my gaze to see Ezra,the family chauffeur beaming at me through the rear mirror.He was always a jolly fellow. “ Everything okay ma’m Estella?” I felt old whenever he called me that but I knew he was only being respectful. “Sure, Ezra.Just tired from prepping all night.” Last night, my assistant chef and I had an all-night prep marathon, ensuring every ingredient we could come across was portioned, labeled, and ready for service. “Ah..I’m so sorry.You don’t know?” “Know what?”I piqued up with interest. “Well I overheard Don Simon telling his bodyguard that they would be expecting a visitor

Estella’s pov I could feel the avid pressure thrumming through my veins as I tried to make sure everything was perfect tonight.I took in my surrounding .I chuckled at the sight of Heather giving out orders in a stern manner.I loved her that she showed so much zeal when it came to assisting me.I focused more on the meals I made for Ma Esmeralda but ended up vetting the full course meal by the end of a session. Tonight,Arman Mendez would be arriving and I needed to make sure the family dinner was perfect. “We have to start plating.”Heather said as she moved close to me,drinking in my face. “Sure.So we’re done making every meal?” “Yeah and the family would be back for dinner soon” Hours later,I helped to prep the dining table glad that I had successfully pulled everything through. Alda walked in firstly looking elegant as ever.She looked like she could get her own fashion line.She gave her usual snobby attitude to the maid beside her and took her seat typing away on her pho

Chapter 3

Estella’s pov Long Island had the tendency of having cold nights.I thanked the maid that cleaned up after me and watched them leave.Heather was away on a leave ,she had stated that her Father was ill and needed her attention.Heather’s mum had died from childbirth and he was all that she had. I decided to make a quick smoothie .Fruits were good for boosting energy to my knowledge and I couldn’t doubt that working as a private chef was a tiresome job. My thoughts wandered as I prepped the smoothie .I hadn’t seen Arman since the night of his arrival.It had been a week since he did so. I shouldn’t care.I thought I hated that I found myself thinking about him sometimes .I had to remain professional if I wanted this job . I almost let go of the blender I was holding when I heard someone walk in. It was 10pm and the workers knew better than loitering around late at night.I was always the last person to leave the kitchen too after a day well done. It was Simon and he looked pi

Chapter 4

Estella pov Esmeralda ,looking brighter in her countenance had called for a staff meeting stating that Don Pablo would be absent for some days due to some business activities .So there would be no need for a large preparation of meals for awhile.I could see the relief on the kitchen staff’s faces.The previous weeks had been tough with making breakfast,lunch and dinner in a large quantity hence Ma Esmeralda’s order.She had also been frequenting eating her meals with her family lately and made sure everyone was present .Well except for Arman whom I hadn’t seen ever since he got back.Simon was fair in his attendance and I couldn’t help but notice that he was back to ignoring my presence . Now I wondered why the thought of that hurt.I decided to let it be knowing that I was in no place to feel so. I understood her need to do call for a sudden meeting.I always served Esmeralda’s meals in her room when she didn’t feel like it and Alda rarely ate at home except for dinner.Simon and Arma

Chapter 5

Estella’s pov It’s been two days since my encounter with Arman and he had fulfilled his promise with his presence at breakfast today..I had just gotten back from attending to Esmeralda and was packing some fruit salad for Alda.I was surprised to see her keeping her mum company ,my opinion,she didn’t have a close relationship with either of her parents. Only if she knew I would die to have a full family like hers.I finished prepping the salad and headed back to Esmeralda’s room when I caught sight of Arman having breakfast alone in the dining room. He seemed to be much of a loner . The voice in my head screamed at me to walk away but I saw myself walking into the dining room. He looked up from his food and his face lit up when he saw me. Did my presence make him happy? I doubted ..maybe he just liked catching off end. “Good morning” “Good Morning Estella.So we meet again” “I hope you’re enjoying your meal” What was I even saying?I wasn’t meant to be here caring abo

Arman’s pov “Oh yes ,Arman.God I’ve missed you so much”Sasha moaned out loudly as I pumped into her from behind.I liked the way she said my name but I was trying my best to release to the thought of Estella being the one under my torture instead. I pulled out and slipped it again before giving her my usual last simultaneous strokes and slaps on her ass.She chuckled and moved backwards.I placed my cock on her butt as I released relishing the feeling ,she jiggled her ass in a teasing manner and moved away . “You know I don’t mind that you ghost me often because when you get in touch,you always make it up to me”she said and entered the bathroom. I smiled at her statement and moved to peel the condom off my cock.I joined her in the bathroom ,letting myself to get a good image of her fat ass.She was so sexy and that’s why I couldn’t let go .Latina girls might be the end of me. I hadn’t got time to get into a relationship ever since I left home .I put my time into opening my own ri

Chapter 7

Estella’s pov A week had graduated to a month of Boss Pablo not returning.I could feel the tension in the air with Simon and Arman having a no show for a long time.I watched Alda prostrate to give her mum a peck .Somehow I wished I could relate to having that.Mother’s love. My foster parents were fair in the way the treated my foster siblings and I .They had adopted three kids and I was the youngest.Portia was my closest sibling until she slept with my ex boyfriend and we had a beef up till this day.After our parents died,I fled before the foster agency could locate me.Matt was my other foster sibling but I haven’t heard from him ever since I ran away in an attempt to flee from the foster agency.He was a good one too ,always sneaking cookies for me late at night because our mum rarely allowed us to eat much sugar.It was a bitter sweet moment. It was a tough one dealing with my life all by myself.I started a job at a bar,saved a lot and rented my first apartment.It wasn’t easy but

Chapter 8

Arman’s pov I hung up on Simon and moved to dress up for the day.He called to let me know that papa wanted an urgent meeting.I made sure to check up on mama and Alda .Estella,lacing my mind even when I tried hard not to think about her. It’s been two days since I raised my voice on her and I knew I shouldn’t have. Few minutes later,I was on my way to the garage with my personal bodyguard and right hand man,Fabio. “First we Head to the winery and then we also need to visit papa”I said,nodding to his greeting. He nodded in understanding. I paused in my tracks when I overheard a familiar voice from the garden .I moved to have a better view to see it was Estella talking to a trio of maids. She stopped talking upon noticing me and dismissed them quickly. I gestured for my bodyguard to give us a minute . She gave a pout and folded her hands “I thought you never wanted to set your eyes on me again” I laughed shortly amazed at her being dramatic. “You need to chill off.

Chapter 9

Estella’s pov I laughed as Heather gave me details about her experience with her father while on leave. “Sometimes I feel like he’s never going get used to the idea of me getting married someday”she said softly. It was past 5am and we were in our sleeping quarters prepping for the start of our day. “Come on.You’re lucky to have a parent and one that cares about you so much”I almost wished I had taken back my words as soon as I said it. I could see the pity in her eyes.She looked away and searched for something else to say. “That’s by the way.So tell me all about it..how has work been?” I shrugged wearing my apron. “Good.Actually less stressful since Boss Pablo won’t be around for awhile and ma Esmeralda loves having her meals privately “ “And?” “And what?” “Oh please.I know you’ve been in contact with Simon an Arman.I overhead the maids saying so” “Well I work for them?” “And I know they hardly take notice of their workers.I had a crush on Simon but he never t

Arman’s pov“You know we have to tell mum that everything is okay hence us coming back home “Simon said as the chauffeur drove into the compound of our home.“Sure”I said and looked out of the car window to see the queue of workers waiting for our return.I poised my stature as I stepped out of the car sighting Estella at the end of the queue.She gave me a quick smile and looked downwards in respect.“Hey mama”I said as I moved to take my mama’s outstretched hands in cue with Simon.“Welcome home “she said in a pleased tone.I turned to see Estella staring but she was quick to look away.“I made sure they cooked your favorites.”“Oh mum that wasn’t necessary “Simon said.“Well I can’t wait to have some because I’m famished”He gave me an amused look shaking his head.An hour later ,I found myself watching Estella as she ordered the maids to do their respective works.It was like she was the only thing I could look at in the room.Her hair was tossed back in a rough bun and I almost w
