A Night with Mr Arrogant (Episode 22)

Episode 22

Jackson looks at his watch and pack up his laptop. Then he stands up.

“Let’s go home” he said.

“Are you sure? Cause you still have a lot of work to do”

” Let’s. Go. Home” he said.

” Okay” I said.

He remove his jacket and hands it to me. He glares at me and I look at him confused, what have I done wrong.

“Put the damn jacket on. And next time don’t wear these pieces of cloth you call clothing!!” He said angrily.

Why is he getting angry now? His mood swings are really interesting.

I put on the jacket and I hear him whispers.

“Perfect!”

I pretend as if I didn’t hear him. I don’t want to provoke him more.

He takes my hand and leads me out of the office.

Stepping out of the elevator, we saw Bright talking with the receptionist, actually flirting with her.

“Woah, boss. Going somewhere?” He asks Jackson.

“I’m heading home” Jackson reply.

James turn to me.

” I know this guy almost killed you with boredom, right” I nod. He smiles. “Then I know just how to save you. How about I take you to a nice place, where you’ll see other cool guys”.

Jackson turnt to Bright in a flash at the mention of guys, I think I heard his neck crack.

“Or other cool girls” Bright quickly say.

“ Bright, we’re going home. I wanna see my office in a good shape tomorrow” Jackson said and without another word, he pulls me along with him.

************************

The ride from his company back to the mansion, was a long, quiet and torturing one.

Finally, we made it to the mansion. I open his car door and step out. Then we head to the main door.

There at the door post, a bouquet of flowers lay on the ground. I pick it up and look at the card to know who the flowers are for.

They might be for Jackson, you know girls are crazy when it comes to who they love.

But the card has my name on it, I smile when I know the flowers are for me.

“At least someone appreciate my charms for once” I said.

My Strict Housemaid (Episode 2)

 (Episode 2)

*AFTER SOME HOURS DRIVE*

Lucy got down from the car and took a look at her surroundings.

The house is really big and beautiful.

The driver drove off, leaving her all alone.

She walked to the front steps and raised her hand to knock.

The door opened to reveal a handsome dude, the CEO himself.

From the internet, she learnt that his name is Elvis Jonathan, he’s twenty eight years old and he’s stinkingly rich but the internet did no justice to his looks. They need to be sued!

His curly black hair complemented his round face, he has round blue eyes and an athletic build.

She actually took note of his pointed nose and full lips, long lashes, bushy eyebrows, in summary, he’s very handsome though his features were chilling and uninviting.

Too bad his looks has no effect on me. I’m sure he would have a lot of girls worshipping his feet, she silently said in his mind.

He threw his head back and studied Lucy, his cold gaze penetrating.

Lucy nearly cowered back but she stood straighter and lifted her chin to meet his gaze.

When he talked, his voice was silky and orotund voice.

“Yes? Who are you?” He curled up his lips.

“Your new maid” she said in a short tune.

He narrowed his eyes at her, she felt the need to introduce herself further.

“My name is Lucy and I was employed by your mother to be your maid” she smiled a little.

“Get out” he said in a cold manner.

Lucy raised her brow, “Make me” she replied coldly.

A Night with Mr Arrogant (Episode 21)

Episode 21

“Jackson, if you want to eat, you could have called me. Why bother adding a new rule and stop Mirabel from going to her date. That guy was such a cute guy” Bright said.

Bright saw Mirabel telling the guy who drove her here to leave, the guy was somehow heartbroken from what he saw.

He saw Jackson from his perherial view, she’s looking at Mirabel curiously, probably wondering what his response will be.

Honestly, I am too, Bright said.

“That wasn’t a date! And he wasn’t cute!” Jackson said, gripping his pen tightly.

I'm leaving” then he dash off.

Now it’s just me and the vampire, I pray he doesn’t suck my blood. And drain the life out of me.

Jackson’s harsh gaze focus on me, I begin to shift from one foot to the other. Nervously playing with my fingers.

He carries the flask and goes to a sofa in his office.

Well he has a small area that looks like a sitting room. He sits on the sofa and gestures for me to come over.

I slowly and nervously walk towards him. He gestures for me to sit down and I did.

Then he gives me a spoon, I look at him, confused.

“Let’s eat” he said.

My eyes grow wide. Eat with him? No way!

“No, sir. I’m full” I said.

He narrows his eyes at me.

“Eat!” He commands.

I scoff mentally, can’t he ask me nicely. I just pray I find his secret quickly and leave.

He looks at me, as if waiting for me to start eating. Immediately I start eating, he does too.

After we finish eating, I pack up the flask and stand up.

“Thanks, sir. But I think I should be going back now”

” No” he said.

” No? ”

” No, stay” he said.

What’s wrong with him. Why is he using short words?

“But sir, I have a lot of chores waiting for me”

“I said, stay. We’ll go home together” he said and walks to his chair.

He sits down and begin to type on his laptop…

“Then what am I supposed to be doing here?” I asked.

He pause and raise his head to look at me. He smirk and points towards my pocket.

“Play games on your phone”

A Night with Mr Arrogant "Episode 20"

EPISODE 20

Just then we arrive at Jackson’s floor. We step out and walk to Jackson’s office.
We were getting close to Jackson’s office, when Bright wraps his arm around my waist.

Bright opened the door and they step in, Jackson is going through some files when we step in, so he didn’t see them.

Bright clears his throat and Jackson raises his head, his eyes zero on Bright arm wrapping around Mirabel’s waist and his gaze harden.

“Bright, what are you doing here?” He asked through gritt teeth.

Yes, baby that’s it get angry and claim her quickly, he muttered.
“I’m your PA and also your best, best most favorite friend in the whole world. Where else do you expect me to be?” Bright asked.

Jackson eyes move to Mirabel's exposing body parts. He stands up and remove his jacket, walks up to them and remove Bright's arm from Mirabel’s waist, throwing him a killer glare. 

He puts the jacket around Mirabel’s shoulder, and Bright bit his tongue to stop himself from laughing.The jacket is actually a dress for Mirabel.
The jacket could almost reach her knees. Jackson walk back to his chair.

“Jackson, if you want to eat, you could have called me. Why bother adding a new rule and stop Mirabel from going to her date. That guy was such a cute guy” Bright said.

Bright saw Mirabel telling the guy who drove her here to leave, the guy was somehow heartbroken from what he saw. He also saw Jackson from his perherial view, she’s looking at Mirabel curiously, probably wondering what his response will be. Honestly, I am too, Bright said.

“That wasn’t a date! And he wasn’t cute!” Jackson said, gripping his pen tightly. He is clearly jealous.

Bright don’t know why Jackson still won’t accept his true feelings.

Bright looked at the jacket around Mirabel's shoulder , and he couldn’t hold back his laughter so he burst out laughing..I wonder why Bright is laughing. I dare not laugh too even if I wanted to, I’m scared of what Jackson would do.

“Oh my gosh! You’re too short, the jacket look funny on you. Come on, take it off” he said.

The jacket is actually a dress for Mirabel. The jacket could almost reach her knees.

Jackson walk back to his chair.

“Jackson, if you want to eat, you could have called me. Why bother adding a new rule and stop Mirabel from going to her date. That guy was such a cute guy” Bright said.

A Night with Mr Arrogant (Episode 19)

Episode 19

I quickly turn and rush out of the office. I made it back to Victor in no time.

I approach Victor with a nervous smile, and clear my throat.

“So, are we good to go?” Victor asked me.

“About that… I think we’ll have to raincheck. I have an unfinished business here”

Victor sigh and pinch the bridge of his nose. Then he nod.

“Tomorrow then?” He asked.

“I’m not sure, but I’ll call you when I’m free” I said.

“Ok. I’ll be expecting your call”

He entered his car and drove off. I turn back and enter the building.

Just when I’m about to step in the elevator, I see Bright running towards me, making signs for me to hold the elevator door for him.

He enters the elevator with me and press 59th button.

“Mirabel, you’re looking good” he said.

“Really? Thanks” I reply.

“I guess you’re here to drop Jackson's lunch”

“Yes. Right, do you know about the new rule?” I asked.

He furrows his brows at me.

” What new rule?” He asks back.

“The one that states I must have lunch with Jackson every day”.

He has a confused expression on, but recognition suddenly flash in his face.

And he breaks into a grin.

“Yeah. I know about it" he said.

Just then we arrive at Jackson’s floor. We step out and walk to Jackson’s office.

We were getting close to Jackson’s office, when Bright wraps his arm around my waist.

I look at him feeling confused as to why he suddenly wrap his arm around me.

He just laughs and say, “play along”

I’m so going to irk Jackson today. I wanna see how long he’s gonna hold up, untill he accept his feelings, he said in a low tune.

My Strict Housemaid (Episode 1)

Episode 1

Elvis woke up to sound of his phone ringing.
“Yes??” he said into the phone, his voice heavy with sleep.
”It’s your mother” the voice said calmly over the phone.
”What?” he replied.
”No greetings?”
”Get straight to the point or I hang up”
”Fine, I employed a maid for you to assist with your house cleaning” she said.
”I don’t need one” he replied gruffly, annoyed with the fact that she dared employed one without my knowledge.

You can say Elvis and his mum doesn't have the best relationship. Well it’s all her fault, if she hadn’t disrupted his wedding, called his wife to be a fraudster and got her arrested, things would still be normal.
It’s nice to know that Mara was found guilty of whatever accused her of and she was given life imprisonment but mum shouldn’t have disrupted the wedding that way!

”Are you there?” She asked.
”I don’t need a maid, I’m perfectly okay, I don’t know why you care” he said.
”She’s coming and that’s final” she replied sternly

”I SAID I DON’T WANT ONE!” he shouted but she had hung up.
Ugh……….
He threw the phone at the wall in anger, this woman should stop interfering in my life!
He stood up and head to the bathroom, there’s no use trying to sleep again. She has successfully made my day begin badly, he murmured.

He showered and dressed, preparing for the day ahead.
His home phone rang, only a few people know the number.
He went over and answered.

”Yes?”

”You have a meeting with Sky company in exactly one hour and thirty minutes sir” his PA voice came through the phone.
” Okay Pat, I’ll be there very soon” he hung up and knotted his tie, looking at the mirror.

***********************

Lucy woke up very early and pack every bit of her luggages.
She picked a short fleyed skirt to wear, a crop top and black sandals.
She packed her hair in a ponytail, applied little makeup.
Mum always told me that first impression lasts longer, she said to herself.
She rolled her luggages out to the next compound where her boss lives and went to bade them goodbye.
“We’ll miss you Lucy, you’re really the best” His wife hugged her.
“It’s really nice working with you ma’am” she smiled and hugged other family members.

A car hooted outside.

“My ride is here” she announced and baded them farewell again.
“Are you really going?” One of my soon to be old colleagues asked.
“Yeah why?” she narrowed her eyes.
“Nothing. Wish you a good journey ahead, we won’t miss you though”.
Lucy scoffed and walked to her ride.
She put in her luggages and sat, just before she closed the car door, she replied him.
“Guess what, I won’t miss you too. We’re even then” she slammed the door and sat back in the car. This is going to be a long ride.

AFTER SOME HOURS DRIVE
Lucy got down from the car and took a look at her surroundings.
The house is really big and beautiful.
The driver drove off, leaving her all alone.
She walked to the front steps and raised her hand to knock.

A Night with Mr Arrogant "Episode 18

EPISODE 18

I open the door and step in. My mouth hung open at the sight, it’s marvelous. I look around in awe.

“Are you just gonna stand there or you are gonna come in?” I hear Jackson’s voice ask.

I wake up from my Dreamland and walk in. I look at Jackson sitting on his big swivel chair, he looks even more intimidating sitting on it.

I raise the flask up and plastered a very wide fake smile on my face .

“I brought your lunch, sir” I said.

“Put it on the table” he said.

I put it on the table and turn to leave, but his voice stop me from moving an inch.

“And where are you going?”

“I’m going back to the mansion” I answered.

He pause and studies me for a moment.

“Really?” I nod my head. “Then who is that guy waiting for you outside?”

I bite my lower lip, thinking of what to say.

“I asked you a question” he said.

I guess there’s no need to lie, it’ll be better if I just say the truth.

“Actually, I want to have lunch with him” I said.

I see his jaw clenched. He looks at me from head to toe, then shakes his head in disapproval.

” Well, you can’t have lunch with him” he said glaring at my expose stomach.

” Why? I’m free now!” I said.

” You’re not free. I just added a new rule, you must have lunch with me every day” he said.

My mouth hang open. I stare at him in disbelief. Is he for real?

“But sir…”

“No buts. Now come and sit down let’s eat”

I open my mouth and close it again, I really don’t know what to say. Why is working for him so hard?

“Then what about my friend outside?” I asked.

He looks into his laptop and back to me.

“I’ll tell someone to send him back” he said.

“No, no. I’ll tell him myself” I said.

He keeps quiet for a moment and think about it.

“You have only ten minutes”

“Ten minutes?” I asked. Doesn’t he know how slow the elevator ride is?

” Your time starts now!”

I quickly turn and rush out of the office. I made it back to Victor in no time.

I approach Victor with a nervous smile, and clear my throat.
