A Night With Him - S01 E35

Read Story: ____________________________

“The girl is alone now,seems her dad and the nanny won’t be coming back home tonight” Marie contacted Ethan Weston secretly.

“Okay, thank you” Ethan smiled wickedly before slowly getting up beside the slee-ping carrle.

He then ti-ptoed out of the room.

**

“You

haven’t sle-pt?” Nola asked Ivory who walked into the kitchen in her nightwear, hvgging her hvge teddy bear to her che-st.

She shook her head ” I can’t”

“Why?” Nola asked, almost done with cleaning the kitchen.

She was about to go sleep with Ivory in her be-droom cause every worker here is not to be trusted.

“I’m worried” Ivory said sadly.

“I’m worried too” Nola said, she has been thinking about Irene’s mum’s health as she cleaned the kitchen.

“Come here” She consoled ivory by putting her in a hvg and ru-bbing her hair.

“Everything will be fine” She muttered.

“I don’t want to sleep alone tonight, I’m scared. I miss Irene” Ivory said.

“Of course you won’t be slee-ping alone, let me finish cleaning the kitchen and we’ll both go to my room. I’ll re-ad you interesting be-dtime stories” Nola said and Ivory nodded with a smile.

“What should i help you with?” She asked.

“I’m almost done ivory, there’s nothing left for you to do” Nola said.

“Okay Nola” Ivory said, toying with her teddy bear.

“Go sit in the dining room while i round up” Nola said, knowing she nee-ded time to think about the be-dtime stories to tell Ivory.

“Okay” ivory hopped to the dining room.

She dropped her teddy bear on the table and sli-pped her footwear off her feet.

She stood in the middle of the spacious dining room and started practicing the ballet they were taught earlier in the day.

It seems more difficult without music but being Ivory,she imagined the music pla-ying in her head and started dancing perfectly.

She so much love dancing,she can’t wait to be a grown up so she can show the world how much of a gem ballet is.

“Ivory” Someone called her but she didn’t st©pped.

She knew it wasn’t Nola, Nola would never have disturbe-d her while she’s dancing.

“Ivory” She heard again and gro-an ed before st©pping.

She saw it was one of the maids named..Marie throu-gh the name tag on her dress.

“What do you want? How dare you interrupt me?” Ivory yelled.

She knew her dad would have reprimanded her if he was here but sometimes these maids nee-ds to be yelled at.

“I’m sorry for yelling but what do you want?” Ivory asked.

“Why haven’t you gone to be-d? Go to be-d now” Marie ordered.

“Excuse me?” Ivory asked wondering why the lady had so much command in her voice. Irene who’s her nanny doesn’t even speak to her in that manner.

“Hey! You’re not my nanny and you don’t have the right to order me around, your job here is to take care of the house and not me!” Ivory said.

“Shut up little… Just go to be-d” Marie said sternly. “Now” She added.

“Are you out of your s-en-ses Marie?” Nola asked walking out of the kitchen.

Marie fumed on seeing her, she never knew Nola was in the kitchen.

“How dare you speak to Ivory that way, you’re not allowed to do that okay? You’re just a common maid here, get that into your head!” Nola warned.

“I was only trying to get her to be-d….” Marie was saying.

“By forcing her?” Nola asked.

She never liked Marie from the start.

“It’s late alre-ady” Marie said.

“You’re not supposed to order her to go to be-d in the first place okay? If you try this again, I’ll have to report you to Mr Harold” Nola said and Marie walked away angrily.

“Let’s go to be-d Ivory” Nola said and took ivory’s hand.

**

If you can’t do it, just go call on Alex.

Well, it’s not like i can’t. I’d do anything to hurt the girl,she’s so rude and spoilt but the thing is…

What?.. hurry up, Carrle mustn’t wake up…

The girl is not in her room anymore, Nola alre-ady took her to her room.

What! Why did you allow that happen?” Ethan yelled.

I wa..” Marie was saying.

You know what? You’re so dumb! Get the hell off my phone” Ethan disconnected the call angrily.

“Damn!” Marie swore.

Next Morning

“Damien just go prepare for school, I’ll be with Mum” Irene said for the umpteenth time.

“I don’t want to leave” Damien said.

“Mum will be fine, she won’t be glad you missed cl@sses because of her”

“You should go to school, you’ll still get to check on her when you’re back, even if you wait, you won’t be able to see her till they’re done with the surgeries and i guess it’ll take more than a day so just go to school, she’ll be fine” Harold said.

“Okay” Damien said, stepping down from the be-d.

The had sle-pt in an empty ward containing two be-ds.

Harold sle-pt in one while Irene and Damien shared one.

“Go tell my driver to take you home and drop you in school after you’re done preparing” Harold said.

His driver had went home yesternight and c@m£ back this morning.

“Huh? He should drop me in school too?” Damien asked.

“Yeah” Harold said.

Damien glanced at his sister and she shrugged.

“Thank you” Damien grinned, alre-ady imagining the look that’ll be on his everyone’s face when he steps down from the limousine.

“I should leave now” He hvgged his sister and waved to.

He beamed as he walked to the door, the conversation he had with Harold yesternight had been awesome.

Harold Marshall is even more intelligent than Damien thought he’d be, he proved himself worthy to be a role model.

He’s everything Irene had mentioned and he didn’t regret choosing to look up to him.

“Will i meet you here when I’m back from school?” Damien asked, holding the door knob.

“Of course” Harold said.

“No, he’ll be going to work” Irene said and Harold glanced at her.

“Ohh” Damien said,a bit sadly.

“Bye” He added before walking out of the door.

“I never told you i was going to work” Harold faced Irene.

“You go to work everyday and i wouldn’t allow you miss work today because of my mum”

“I own the work you’re talking about. I can decide not to go and everything will still be in place”

“I know but plea-se you can’t miss work just because of us. You did so much alre-ady” Irene said.

“Good morning Mr Harold, Irene” Doc Fern said, walking into the ward .

“Good morning”

“I know you must have felt so uncomfortable on the be-d,you should go home now and have a rest ” Doc Fern said to Harold..

“No, it’s fine” Harold said.

“Ohh…okay, the surgeries will begin once the specialists are here,so I’ll want you both to go home,clean up and probably eat before they arrive”

“Ohh..okay, i should call Eric to drive here after he drops Ivory” Harold said and Irene smiled.

They had talked to Ivory and Nola over the phone this morning and she miss the little girl overnight,she missed dressing her up for school too.

Hey Eric..” Harold said into the phone.

Good morning Mr Harold.

Good morning, drive straight to the hospital after you drop Ivory.

I dropped her alre-ady, I’ll be coming right away.

Ohh… okay.

“Do you nee-d anything before your driver arrive?” Doc Fern asked.

“No, we’re fine… Irene do you nee-d anything?” Harold asked.

“No” Irene shook her head even though she badly wanted to take water.

“I guess the young sir has gone to school” Doc Fern said.

“Yeah” Irene smiled.

“Alright then” Doc Fern said before walking out of the door.

“Eric will get here soon” Harold said to irene who was repacking her hair.

He smiled as their gazes locked.

“Why..are you being so nice to me?” Irene asked.

“You think there’s a reason?” Harold asked.

“I know you’re a philanthropist Harold but do you want anything from me… I’ll..gladly give you” Irene said.

“You will?” Harold asked.

“Yes” Irene shifted closer to him.

She has feelings for Harold and at this point she doesn’t even care if he finds out or not.

What lingers in her mind right now is if he feels the same way for her.

She had caught him stare at her several times….but that doesn’t mean he feels the same way for her too.

“What i want from you is not the reason I’m doing all these, i helped you because i wanted to, nothing attached.”

“Okay,I’m glad you really want something from me, I’ll gladly do anything for you?” Irene said.

“I like you Irene. I have feelings for you” Harold said and her heart pumped twice fas-ter.

“And i want to know if you trust me enough to put your heart in my care” Harold added and Irene felt her world spin.

She swallowed h@rd, wondering if this was a dream.

‘Yes…yes…yes’ Her mind screamed but her eyes and mouth remained pinned.

Her cheeks were almost the same colour as red roses.

“Good morning Mr Harold” The door opened.

Alex, Tom and Eric stepped in and with one glance at Irene…Alex knew what was going on.
