” You called me Dad ” I said sitting beside him.
” I did, I guess you still remember my friend Kingsley right?” He asked .
I thought for a while and then…
” Oh! Jeffrey’s father?” I beamed at mentioning his name.
I just wish he will give me a single attention one of this days.
I so much love him despite his cold attitude.
He’s not just handsome, he’s well built, most successful bachelor, he has taken over the business world at such a young age.
Isn’t he worth admiring? He’s every lady’s dream! Rich and handsome!
” Yes, he c@m£ here today ” he said and I furrowed my eyebrows.
What does that have to do with me?
” And?” I asked
” He c@m£ with a marriage proposal for his son ”
Wait! A marriage what?

Alexa’s POV
” Sir?” I called like I didn’t un-derstand what he said.
I just want to confirm he’s not pla-ying games with me.
Mr CEO is not someone to trust, why on Earth will he ask to have lunch with me all of a sudden?
That’s scary you know? Or he’s just in a good mood today!
I don’t seems to get why!
” I would love to have lunch with you Sidney, would you?”
Now he’s forwarding the question to me! How does it feel to eat when your boss is few feet away from you?
What if he disgraces me there? Or even mock me?
And can I turn him down? I am scared of being fired.
I sighed softly creasing my knuckles together.
” I uhhm, I will Sir ” I replied fidgeting with my f!ngers.
He didn’t insult me today, that’s to show it’s a good start.
” Good, get re-ady then. Till lunch ” he replied with a sly smile.
Wow! A lot has happened in 5minutes. What happened to Mr Kingsley?
” Anything else Sir?”
” No, you can leave and continue what you were doing ” he replied dismissively.
I bowed my head leaving his office, when I reached mine, I re-leased the breathe I didn’t know I was holding.
That man is just confusing, he’s been all cold since I arrived here and now, he wants me to have lunch with him.
I just hope it goes well!
I heard a knock on my door as I was about opening my l@pt©p.
It’s not yet lunch right ? The thought of it gives me mixed feelings.
” Come in ”
Oh Stella! My bad, I haven’t seen her lately! All Thanks to the boss!
” Stella ” I called smiling at her.
” Well, Good morning too Alexa ”
She replied rolling her eyes.
” I’m sorry okay, Mr Kingsley has made sure I don’t have a peaceful and free time all to myself in this company ”
I replied sincerely and she chuckled
” I can relate, you are really trying and I can’t believe you lasted more than three days ” she said in a surprise tone and I frowned.
Was she expecting me to be fired?
” Don’t get the wrong idea babe, that wasn’t what I meant. I mean none of his personal as-sistant has lasted more than three days ”
She explained as if re-ading my mind! But is he that cold?
” Well, that’s that! How are you coping with Mr Kingsley? ” She asked and I just shrugged.
” Bombarding me with loads of work, but he seems to be in a good mood today, no much work ”
” Maybe that’s towards you, I don’t know why I have this feeling that Mr Kingsley has a soft sp©t for you ” she said with a wi-nk and I scoffed.
Don’t tell me this is a female version of Andrew!
” What makes you think so?” I asked folding my arms around my me.
” Don’t give me that look, we all see that look Mr Kingsley gives you all the time. He might be acting so cold but he likes you ” she said dramatically.
” And when did you become a relationsh!pcoach? ” I asked
” Since forever babe, I nee-d to go. Got some works to do. See ya ”

★ lunch time ★
My jaw dropped as Mr Kingsley opened the door for me like a gentleman !
This attra-cted lots of his workers attention, I was shocked beyond reasonable doubt.
Like did he ….oh my God! And he acted as if he don’t care? Goodness! This is a dream that I have to wake up from.
Why didn’t we just eat here in the office? I have never seen him eat here though!
I glanced at him and he kept a smile on his face. Is this really Mr Kingsley or an imposter?
I entered into the car amidst the stares. I am as shocked as they are.
I don’t know if I should feel embarras-sed or happy. Wait, what’s there to be happy about when he’s acting all weird and acting like a sweet b©yfri£nd?
I don’t feel comfortable at all! His change of attitude is scaring me!
” Uhm Sir?” I called as he sat in the car…
” Yes Sidney” .
” Where are we going for the lunch Sir?”
” It’s a surprise, you don’t have to know ”
My days!
Mr Kingsley is surprising Me

Alexa’s POV
I sat nervously as the car continue moving to an unknown destination.
Why’s he not telling me the place when I am still going to know there?
I could see Mr Kingsley’s gaze burning the back of my head but I refused to turn back.
I don’t want any embarras-sment! I just wish we will be done with the lunch stuff and that should end immediately!
My thought went back to my kids ma-king me sigh!
They want to see their Dad! The man I don’t even know!
What am I going to do when the holiday season comes?
Did I have to continue lying to them? They will surely find out one day!
Those kids are just too smart and full of questions!
” Sidney ” I almost coll@psed the moment Mr Kingsley placed his hand on my shoulder.
Oh my goodness! What’s happening?
I shifted back nervously stylishly removing his hand.
He crease his forehead together and chuckled while I stared blankly at him.
I could have concluded that this isn’t my boss but no doubt, he’s the one.
He calls me Sidney which an imposter might not know and his voice is just same.
His attitude is ma-king me curious!
” We are here young master ”
The driver announced, that was when I noticed the car halted.
In a very beautiful restaurant, not for once in my life have I ever come across this place .
And I live in this New York City? How poor!
My face beam seeing that the place is so flourished but I frowned when there was no b©dy.
No single soul, just us!
” I reserved this place for just us, hope you like it? ”
Mr Kingsley said while I blinked my eyes in sheer disbelief.
Reserved this for us?
” Uhmm, yes, I love it”
I mean who wouldn’t, but my problem is that everything here will be very cost.
The very reason I hate rich lifestyle, if it’s my simple kind of restaurant, I will be able to afford three meals but here?
I wonder if I can buy one for myself although I am not thinking of paying.
Mr Kingsley brou-ght me here right? So he’s the one that’s gonna pay!
” Welcome Tora Kitchenette, plea-se this way ”
A waiter said and the s£dûçt!velook on her face didn’t go unnoticed.
I tried ha-rd not to crack, Mr Kingsley didn’t even spare her a glance.
He kept his face cold, he will only smile if he glance at me or our face met.
We silently followed her to a VIP seats I guess.
Mr Kingsley again took me by surprise when he took out a chair for me like a gentleman he is not.
Why’s he doing all this and I dare not ask, I can’t risk getting him angry here.
He will disgrace me to my fifth generation.
Quite alright people are not here but how about the workers?
” plea-se make your orders ” she said placing the menu in front of us not without glaring at me.
I shook my head at that, what did I do now?
Oh! Sitting with a handsome rich dude?
If only she knows he’s hell of a problem!
” Uhmm, I will go for scrambled eggs with paratha ”
I replied handing the menu back to her.
Paratha is a pakistan dish and one of my favourites.
” And you Sir?”
” Same ” he replied fli-pping the menu! Does he have to be always rude?
” Okay, it will be re-ady in thirty minutes ” she said swaying her bu-tts while leaving and I was f0rç£d to roll my eyes.
Characters everywhere!
Both Mr Kingsley and I stayed in a awkward silent for about five minutes before he decided to speak up.
” I can’t remember the last time I ate scrabbled egg ” he said staring at me with his face neutral !
Humph! It feels so awkward talking with your boss!
” You don’t like it? ” I summoned courage to ask
” Of course I do but, my mum…” He paused and his face darkened at the mention of his Mum.
” Sir? You don’t have to say it if it disturbs you, we can always change the t©pic ”
I quic-kly intercede in his thoughts before he get angry and leave me to trek back to the office.
I looked down at his hand, his knuckles turned white due to the way he was holding the table ti-ghtly.
What could have happened between him and his mother? I don’t get why he just went berserk at the mention of his mum.
” Uhmm, it’s okay Sir. I am really sorry, I shouldn’t have asked if I know it will wake something in you. I am sorry ”
I said almost in a whisper bowing my head.
I stiffened as his hand landed on mine.
” You don’t have to feel guilty about it, I ..”
Our orders arrived before he could finish his s£ntence.
He re-leased my hand and we began eating in silence!
This food is a saviour! Ah!

” Where are the kids Andrew?” I asked panicking.
I looked around like a mad woman for my kids in the restaurant.
” I saw them at that side, they won’t get lost bu-ttercu-p, why panicking?” He asked narrowing his eyes at me.
Does this look funny to him? I thought they were just here when I left to use the restroom.
I hissed loudly running to that side to look for them while my stupid best friend was laughing his as-s out.
It’s Saturday and I kept to my promise by bringing them to their favourite restaurant.
Where are they?
Every one turned back to give me a look but I don’t care, I nee-d to find my kids.
I went to the other side of the restaurant that’s meant for t©p people searching everywhere for them .
I paused and sighed when I sighted them with someone.
This kids won’t kill me before my actual time. Who did they know here?
I don’t trust rich people, what if they use them for rituals huh?
How can they comfortably stay with someone they don’t know and equally giggling?
I rushed over to them shouting their names but it seems they were immune to my calls.
What the hell?
” Emma and Evan ” I yelled the moment I c@m£ near them.
” Mummy ” they both called still laughing.
” We were telling this Uncle about you ” Evan grinned.
My eyes met with the person they’ve been with and I blinked in fright!
Mr Kingsley!
I could see his face held a shock expression before he masked it with a cold one.
I gulped nervously staring at him, what is he doing here? Isn’t this place too low for him?
He stared at me for what seems like forever with a very dark eyes that made me shiver in fear.
He glanced at the kids then at me over and over again,
Then, he angrily stormed out of the restaurant!
