  &quot;Are you happy?&quot; Dad asked me with a soft smile.
      &quot;Yes, dad. I'm very happy.&quot; And I wasn't lying this time. I'm indeed very happy. Xander has been nothing but a good husband and friend, always making me happy and my feelings for him keep intensifying everyday. My handsome crush.
      &quot;Its so obvious from her face.&quot; Micky replies while smiling at me.
      &quot;Good! I'm happy if you are, baby.&quot; He said as he wrapped me in a warm hug.
      Xander left for Germany last week on official duties and I was at home with only Maria accompanying me but yesterday, she had to leave to visit her daughter in Houston.
      Maria has a beautiful daughter, Ellen. She had just given birth to a lovely baby boy so Maria had to go over to help her take care of her baby. From the look of things, Maria might not be coming back anytime soon.
      Since I didn't wa

  Xander
      &quot;Yea, bring it in.' I moved aside as the attendant pushed my food trolley in.
      &quot;Is there anything else you need, sir?&quot; She asked giving me a sexy look. I know that look but chose to ignore it.
      &quot;No,you may leave. Thank you.&quot; I replied. She nodded giving an embarrassed smile and left. I was so hungry. I began to dish out my meal but a knock on the door interrupted.
      &quot;Come in, the door is not locked.&quot; I replied but regretted it immediately when I looked up to see who it was. Lara Jones.
      &quot;Hey, sugar.&quot; She said coming closer.
      &quot;What do you want?&quot; I asked in a bored tone.
      &quot;You.&quot; She replied whilst seductively placing her hands around my neck.
      &quot;And I know you want me too.&quot; She replied licking a spot beside my ear. If I was that man she used to know, I'd have easily sh

  Xander.
      &quot;When is my next schedule?&quot; I asked my new personal assistant who was on the other end of the line.
      &quot;Sir, you have to see the kids at the orphanage at 4pm and that will be all for the day.&quot; Thank God!
      &quot;Ok, did Bri clear her cheque?&quot;
      &quot;Who, sir?&quot;
      &quot;Bri. I mean my twin sister, miss Reynolds.&quot;
      &quot;Yes, she did. Not herself though. Her assistant, Jerry did.&quot;
      &quot;Ok, thanks. I'd be stepping out in a few. You can leave afterwards.&quot;
      &quot;Oh, thank you, sir.&quot; She replied and I ended the call.
      'It's time. Get ready. Robert will be home to pick you.' I sent the message to Nichole.
      'Ok.' She replied the message which brought a smile to my face. I really can't believe how much of good friends we've become. She is a nice girl. I find myself getting drawn to her.
