CHAPTER 08 & 09
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Gerald got back home to pick up some important file that he had left. He was pa-ssing past Fiona room when he saw her there.
Looking at his watch for the time. He went into the room.
“Why are you still here? Shouldn’t you be at your summer lesson?” He asked.
“Am not going” She muttered.
“I already told you that you have no option in this Fiona. The summer lesson is a must for you and you’ve been attending it ever since you started school. So why do you keep on being stubborn about it” He asked.
“I don’t feel like it and you should stop bothering me about it cause i won’t go” Fiona replied fiercely.
“Are we going to have an argument on it again?” He asked.
“Yes we are and if you keep on forcing me to go. I will run away” Fiona threatened.
“You really are impossible” He said knowing that their conversation will only lead to an argument.
“And where is Bella?” He asked her.
The reason why he had hired a nanny for Fiona is to prevent the quarrel he has with her.
Her nanny should be the one doing this not him. He thought as he brou-ght out his phone to call Mrs Milly when he saw Fiona smiling.
Knowing her previous antics on the other nanny, he could tell that Bella disappearance is all her doing.
“What did you do to your nanny?” He asked.
“Nothing. I just made a deal with her” Fiona stated.
There were times when he wished that Fiona had been born dull. Her smart brain keep thinking of ways to get rid of all the nanny he his hired.
“What deal?” He asked.
“I told her to get me my teddy in the garage. Am sure that she didn’t succeed or better yet. Bruno must have bitten her” Fiona said talking about the dog.
Knowing how Bruno gets when ever he sees an outsider, he left her room heading to downstairs.
If she is lucky enough. She will get away from the dog, but if luck isn’t at her side it will surely make mince meat out of her but either way.
He can’t spend another money on treatment for another nanny, only to be blackmailed to getting more. He thought as he got to the door only for him to hear someone scream and in that instant.
The door opened and Bella jumped right into his arms while Bruno stood at the door way growling at her.
Arabella held onto Gerald while the dog kept on growling behind her. She felt his arms loosening around her, and immediately she tightened her arms.
“Don’t put me down! Please. I don’t want to be bitten by the dog” She said as she held him more tightly.
“You don’t have to worry. Bruno is a harmless dog” Gerald said, a bit amuse by the situation.
“Its doesn’t seem that way to me” She said, as she turned to stare at the dog which barked at her
“Take me away from here” She cried out.
Gerald carried her to his study with Bruno still trailing after them. He shut the door right on the dog face, putting Arabella at ease.
He moved her to a chair where he put her on it, before calling for the security to come take Bruno away.
“He would be taken away soon” Gerald said a-ssuring her.
“Thank you. Am sorry for the trouble” She apologised.
“I should be the one apologising. Fiona intentionally asked you to there knowing how Bruno reacts to strangers. Am glad that you are not hurt” He said as he sat on his desk starring at her.
For a while Arabella held onto the last words he said.
‘He was glad that i wasn’t hurt. Was he worried about me?’ She thought as she kept staring at him.
“If you had been hurt. You would have demanded for compensation and would have tried to take me to court just to get more money out of me” He stated, destroying every good notion Arabella had of him.
He hadn’t been worried about her but had been worried about his money.
“Am not like that!” She yelled at him.
“Really? You won’t be tempted to get money out of me when you decide to quit like the rest” He asked.
“I won’t. Your money isn’t that precious and let me tell you this, there is no way that am going to quit. So if you think that am going to do that, then you should stop thinking about it” She stated as she got up.
“I really hope so. Fiona can be very determined and from what i know, she doesn’t want you here” Gerald said.
“That’s too bad cause am here to stay and i will be staying for a long time and there is something i would like to discuss with you about Fiona” She said as she moved towards him.
“Am listening” He replied waiting her to begin.
“I heard that you’ve hardly been paying her attention. Not giving her your attention is the reason why she keeps on acting this way. Can’t you pay her more attention after all she just lost her……”
“I decide what to do with my niece. You have no say in that. All you have to do is to take care of her and I think you should start that now” He said dissmissing her.
“You really are impossible” She muttered under her breath but that didn’t go unnoticed by Gerald.
Arabella walked towards the door only to stop when she was about to open it.
“What’s wrong?”Gerald asked.
“The dog. It’s still there” Arabella said feeling scared all over again.
She had been bitten by a dog once when she was little, and have always stayed away from them but having to see one today made her relived the past.
“I already called for security. They would have taken him away” Gerald said but she couldn’t belive his words.
“Would it be too much of a ha-ssle if i asked you to come check the door first” She said.
“Yes it will” He replied, as he took his seat not bothered about her again.
She moved towards the dog and began to knock. Wanting to know if it was still there, she was still knocking when the door was pulled open.
“See! There’s nothing there” Gerald said even as she stayed close to him.
“You can go back to your task now” He said and she quickly tidied her hair back, while she cleaned the sweat from her hand on her clothes.
Wanting to look prim, proper and smart when she go back to Fiona room.
“Before i forget. We will be having a guest coming over for dinner. Wear something proper” He said staring at her baggy jeans, and ugly shirt.
“Must i really be there?” She asked.
“I always have my dinner with Fiona and so she being there will also demand for your appearance. Your job is to make sure she doesn’t do something crazy” He said as he shut the door on her face before she could give a reply.
“What a jerk!” She muttered as she walked off while Gerald sat at his desk remembering the event of a minute ago.
He didn’t even realise that he was smiling as he picked up his phone to call his secretary.

Arabella went back to Fiona room and as usual she was sitting on her bed, doing whatever on her phone.
Certain luxuries had been limited from her when she was her daughter age being gifted such things at such a age. She’s meant to become a brat. She thought as she kept starring at her daughter
“So you came back in one piece” Fiona said as she stared at her
“You knew that that dog was there and you never told me about it” Arabella accused.
“Why should I? I wanted you gone but as it turns out you are here” Fiona replied.
“You really are a spoilt brat. Did anyone ever told you so?” Arabella asked.
“Yes. My uncle once told me and the maid also calls me that and I don’t care. I don’t care what you all think of me. All I want is that you leave. Just go away. I don’t need a nanny” Fiona yelled at her.
“You need one. Seeing how nau-ghty and bad you are becoming you definitely need a nanny and that nanny will be me” Arabella declared fiercely.
“Who do you think you are? You are not my mom. I hate you!” Fiona yelled as she got out of bed to walk past her into the bathroom.
Feeling hurt by her words. Arabella sat on her bed while she took her phone to see what she was watching.
It was a talk show she had been invited to. The talk show had got her telling people about herself.
Fiona clearly likes Ara the singer better than Bella the nanny and she didn’t come to her as Ara. She came as Bella. Fiona would have to accept her as Bella. Arabella tthought as she decided to give the girl time but she ended up dozing off and when she woke up it was to see that it was dark.
How long have she been sleeping. She thought as she heard a weird noise.
Not wanting to believe that it was what she was thinking. She stretched only to see a snake curled around her body.
Yelling out of fright. She got out of the bed pulling the snake away from her.
The door opened and Fiona walked into the room looking smug.
“Am glad that it woke you up” Fiona said, as she went to pick the snake up.
“Will you stop scaring me with all this” Arabella said to the little girl.
“If you want me to stop then you have to leave” Fiona said.
“Am not going to leave! So stop telling me to do that” Arabella replied.
“Then a snake around your body won’t be the only thing you get” Fiona threatened.
“You really are a pain” Arabella muttered.
“Then leave if I am a pain” Fiona yelled at her.
“This will be the last time I tell you this. I won’t leave. Get ready for dinner with your uncle. He is bringing a guest” Arabella said.
“It must be a woman” Fiona said softly.
“Whoever your uncle brings is not someone you should concern yourself with. Just put on your best clothe and come downstairs. I will also be there” Arabella informed her
“You will?” The little girl asked, as a mischievous smile lit up her face.
“I will and don’t do anything to ruin tonight dinner. Seems like the guest is someone important to your uncle” Arabella said.
“I won’t ruin it. I can promise you that” Fiona said as she went to get ready.
Arabella didn’t know why but she felt uneasy about Fiona easy acceptance.

A while later, Arabella was dressed in a gown which didn’t compliment her curves. She let her hair down as she tried to make herself look a bit different.
Afterall she had promise to make herself look presentable to any guest of Gerald.
She was heading up to Fiona a room to get her when she heard some voices downstairs.
One definitely belongs to Gerald while the other voice belonged to someone she knew well enough.
Alighting the few stairs she had climbed. She head back to the front door only to see Jenna along with John standing by the door way. Talking to Gerald.
‘Why did he invite the two people who knows me as Ara the singer to his home?’ She thought, as she kept on staring at them.
