Chapter 16
"Thank you. I can't take it from you since I have the baby in my hands, but I can tell you where to put it."
"Where would you like it to go Miss?" I didn't answer the question immediately. I didn't want him to just rest it inside because if Ms. Wilson came back before I did, she will start searching my things and I didn't want her all up in my business. I didn't want to leave it out here either because the gardener might do the same things.
"My bedroom." Trusting him, I told him the direction of my bedroom.
When Abdul was gone I turn to his partner whose name I'm yet to know. "You didn't tell me your name."
He smiled showing his teeth, "Oh, sorry. I'm Wade O'Connor." He pushed out his hands for me to shake. Taking my right hands-off Henrique's back, I shook it.
"So, this business Is yours then?" The name on the truck was 'O'Connor's Moving and Rentals. If he was the boss, it explained why he was in the plaid shirt and not a business shirt like Abdul.
"It' a family business, yes." I smiled at him then look down at his hand. This was a bad habit I have to look down at a handsome man's finger to see if there is a ring.
And Bingo!
He did. He was wearing a silver or white goal wedding band. I couldn't tell the difference.
"That's great. Is there any place in the truck for me and Henrique?" I asked since I will be travelling with them to the Warehouse.
He raised his brows at me. So, I continued. "My driver's license is expired so I can't drive, and I don't even have a car. So, I was thinking I could come with you guys."
"Oh," he scratches the back of his head uncertain. "Yea, we have a seat behind the passenger seat you and the baby can sit there."
I smiled at him. "Great. How will I get back here?"
"I'll have one of the workers drop you back if that's okay?"
Abdul was coming through the door, so I quickly nod.
"Yes, let's get going."
...................
This was the first time I left the mansion since I arrived, and it was great. I got to see other parts of the town and more beautiful houses. We currently driving back to the Mansion with Ugo who insisted on giving me a tour when I told him I was from New York. It was now close to 4 pm which meant I was gone for a good 6 hours.
Turning to Ugo I said. "You sure, you won't get fired?"
He laughs, "No, I won't get fired." he assured.
"Are you sure?" I looked at the younger guy with worried eyes.
"My father can't fire me, especially since he isn't paying me."
"You're Wade's son?" I asked curiously. Wade didn't look that old, but I guess his handsomeness covered it up.
He crackled, "Hell No, that duffus is my older brother."
Ah, I see. They did look strikenly similar.
"We're here." Looking ahead, I noticed the front gate which was close.
"Okay, you can stop at the gate, I'll walk it in."
"You sure?" he said looking at me.
"Yea, It's not a problem." The only problem was I had no idea how the hell am I going to get in. I was the one to open it for the truck when I saw them through my window.
He drove up to the gate then turn around facing the direction he was coming from. I turn to him a smile. "Thanks a lot Ugo. It means a lot to me that you showed me around."
He grinned, "No problem. It's not like I had anything important to do and who would miss driving a beautiful woman around? Not me."
I smiled at the eighteen-year-old and unhook my seatbelt. I opened the passenger door and exit the car. Then I went to the back door and opened to the door.
Sleeping Henrique was in the baby car seat that Wade had insist I carry. I gently took him out of the seat. I turn my head to Ugo and smile.
"Thank you so much." I close the back door.
Ugo nod his head then drove off.
I turned around and walked to the gate with Henrique securely in my arms. I pressed the intercom that was at the side.
"Hello." Ms. Wilson voice came out through the intercom.
Thank god, she was home.
"Hey, It's me Kalliyah. Can you open the gate please?"
She muttered something, but I wasn't able hear, it seemed as if she was talking to someone else. She shut off her connection with me and the gate started to open.
I walked in then slowly walked my way up to the house.
The door was opened so I walked in. When I reach the hall, two very angry person was looking at me.
"Where the hell were you?" Alexander shouted. "You think you can run off with him, ugh?" He was in his regular attire, suit and tie and a gentleman.
I sighed as I looked between the master and his servant.
"If I wanted to run off with Henrique, I wouldn't have come back here of all places." I said truthfully. I can't believe they thought I had runway with Henrique. I didn't even bring anything with me. I left all my things and documents here.
How very foolish of them!
"Where the hell have you been? You left the house and not even a message, what do except Ms. Wilson to think?" I looked at him with my brows raised. I don't give a damn to what Ms. Wilson thinks, he of all person should know that. "I was in a very very important meeting and I had to leave because you ran away with the baby who is supposed to be your sister's and not yours."
