The Weekend Nanny

“Domestic flight from Capitol Metropolitan to Northern Province is now ready for boarding. Priority passengers please prepare to board the plane.”The announcement was heard from the domestic airport’s PA system.The priority passengers hurriedly board the plane to take their seats.It was a 6-hour midnight flight from Capitol Metropolitan, Diamond country’s capital, to the Northern Province, the country’s most abundant territory with all the gold and diamond mines among other precious stones and gems.When Amanda North headed to her row with her four-year old son Jack, she noticed that the man in the first row is already sleeping soundly with his seat reclined all the way back.

“I haven’t introduced myself. My name is Mark Hunter. You can call me ‘Hun’ for short” Mark said in a business-like tone.“Amanda North, and you already know my son Jack” Amanda replied while handing her business card.‘Amanda North. Branch Manager – Green District. Heaven in a Spa’ Mark quickly read the business card before keeping it in his wallet.“I don’t have my business card with me now but I can give you my number” he quickly dialled Amanda’s number.“It suits you, you know” Mark remembered how concerned she was with Penny and he thought it’s her nature to take care of others.

The week went by quickly and it was time for Amanda and Jack to go back to Metropolis. She was arranging their luggage for the next day’s flight when her phone started ringing with an unfamiliar number.Thinking it might be a client, she answered without thinking then she heard a distant but familiar voice.“Young Lady” her hands immediately trembled as soon as she heard the voice.“Sorry, I think you dialled the wrong number” Amanda quickly ended the call and sat on the bed for support. She was trembling and she felt her heart stopped beating for a moment.It’s been five years when she was last called by her title. Not that she misses it, but it took her great pains to erase her past life

As soon as he enters his office, Adam West, his friend and trusted assistant immediately followed and reported the day’s itinerary while placing a sandwich in his table.“You can take this one, I’ve had breakfast already” Mark said while pushing the food tray to Adam.“…”He immediately went to the conference room to meet his business partners and after confirming the finalized the details, both parties signed the contract and shook hands.He went back to his office for the next meeting when Adam reported to him.“Boss, the representative from Dark Desires is running late and requested to move the contract signing at 11am&r

“If you know what’s best for the mother and her son, you would stay away from them” Uncle Ben smiled coldly. After working with the old Master for so long, his ice-cold temperament has rubbed off to his subordinates.“And if I don’t?” Mark was not easily intimidated. He is a Mills after all.He wouldn’t be able expand their business if he is a weakling who would back down at every threat.“Let’s just say, this is not a very good community. A single mother and her child alone in their house. Tsk tsk. Who knows what might happen?” Uncle Ben gave him a smirk.“The mother is very pretty and very young, no?” the old man was taunting him.
