Babysitter for the CEO

8



Inside the elevator was his secretary. “Sir… where” “I wanna see my darling friend. You can come along and have fun if you want” Nelson said generously but his secretary shook his head. The last time he went with his boss to a friend reunion, it turned into a serious fight and later, he was turned into a punching bag though that allowed his some months off work he’d rather not go through that again no matter how much pay he’d get. “You don’t need to follow then. Just help me sign the documents on my table” said Nelson with a knowing smile. His secretary gasped and shook his head. He smiled foolishly. “Sir… i was just joking. Who wouldn’t want to follow you? You are a ..”Mr. Peters was interrupted. “Don’t praise me. I know your happiness” said Nelson in a narcissistic tone making his secretary stunned. “Happiness? This is the worst day of my life. I haven’t even written my will yet. Gosh! What am i thinking I’m still young.”Mr peter thought. The elevator opened and Nelson stepped out first and Peter followed him to the last floor. The employees stared at them for 2 seconds and faced their work. They didn’t want to be fired from this well paying job that they had. Nelson came outside and saw many cars passing and he smiled. He entered the Maybach Excelero and drove away by himself. As expected, he wouldn’t let me come along. It’s good that sir has feelings. I’m touched”thought Mr. Peter with a sigh only for his phone to ring. It was his boss and Mr. Peters’ face twisted as he answered the call. Mr. Peters: “Hello, boss” Nelson: “Peters, i think i’m pregnant, my water broke” Peters: “????? Nelson” “I’m joking. Meet me up at Theo’s cafe. Don’t be late” The line hung up and Peters began to shed non-existent tears. “Is he going to meet his girlfriend or something?”Peters thought before boarding a taxi. Meanwhile, Lisa’s father had been informed that his daughter was miraculously alive and that her savior was unconscious. “Boring!” her dad muttered before drinking coffee and at the same time reading an analysis report from the manager. “It’s almost time,” he said again before standing. He put down the analysis report and patted the creases on his suit. “I have an appointment. Jason, prepare the Rolls-Royce. I’m going incognito today” he said as he headed for the bathroom in his master bedroom. His secretary shook her head. “Going incognito in a Rolls-Royce. Now that’s more like her boss. Rich people do think differently from the poor. Such is life” she thought with a sigh and left the room to fulfill her boss’ command. At the hospital, Vanessa had woken up and was being fed noodles by Lisa while Evelyn sat at corner sulking. “Evelyn come over here” Evelyn turned her head to look at Vanessa who was still smiling. Strange! Vanessa can’t speak for now. Did she so much wanna be with her friend that she’d started hallucinating? Yeah! It must be it. “Evelyn, my best buddy. Come over here” Evelyn stood up still looking at Vanessa. “Am i going crazy?” she asked herself. Vanessa smiled at Evelyn and nodded her head making Evelyn more confused. “Evelyn don’t be scared. Come to me. I can telepath now. So let’s talk telepathically.” Evelyn looked at Vanessa and walked towards her and Lisa but Lisa was angry. “Evil lady don’t you think of coming here. I’m not letting you take my mama,” said Lisa. Vanessa patted her little head and nodded at Evelyn. “Come here, buddy”Evelyn fainted at the thought that she was going crazy. “Hey, why did you fall? Don’t you dare pretend. I’m not leaving my mama” Lisa yelled “Guards” At once, two female bodyguards came in. “She wants to steal my mama. Beat her” “Miss, she really has fainted,” said Amber one of the female guards. “So,” Lisa asked with a raised eyebrow. “Take her away,” she ordered but Vanesa rubbed Lisa’s head and smiled. “Fine! I’ll let her stay. Get one of the doctors to come to check on her.”Lisa commanded and immediately one of the guards left quickly. **

Evelyn slowly opened her eyes, and the once blurry surrounding became clear. She could see Lisa sleeping on Vanessa’s sickbed with her head on Vanessa’s lap. Vanessa was half sitting and half lying on the king-size bed, staring at the cute Lisa sleeping peacefully. “She’s such an innocent child. It’s a pity that her uncaring father has ruined her. If I had such a father, I would have taught him a lesson. Poor kid, ” Vanessa thought with a sigh as she caressed Lisa’s head. Evelyn sat up, and Vanessa turned to look at her with a smile. “Vanessa?” Evelyn called out softly in a parched voice as she adjusted a stray hair strand that was covering her eyes back to its original position. Vanessa shook her head and stared at Lisa, and then back at Evelyn. “Lisa is sleeping. Please let’s not wake her up” Evelyn’s eyes widened, and she gasped in shock, staring at Vanessa, who was still smiling. “Sorry, I made you faint from shock. Don’t faint again and let’s talk. I dunno why, but I’m capable of telepathy now and I just felt like using it since, for the time being, I can’t speak. Please do not freak out and try to reply to me… but not with your lips… I mean your mouth. See if you can reply to me with your mind.” Evelyn opened her mouth as Vanessa nodded. “I…”Evelyn was made to shut up by Vanessa shaking her head. “I don’t know what’s happening. This feels really strange,” Evelyn thought in confusion. “Yeah! It’s indeed strange and I still haven’t come to terms with it yet. I don’t know why I became mute, ” Vanessa replied to Evelyn telepathically, making her gasp. “So… we can actually speak to each other with our mouths closed and I’m also capable of telepathy?” Evelyn asked in bewilderment. “Yes! You and I can. I’ll try to connect with Lisa. But if I can’t, then it means that I can only use this means of secret communication with you.” “Then… we can still speak even when Lisa forbids me to? That’s just great!” Evelyn exclaimed telepathically. “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know that such a thing as telepathy existed, ” “So now, about the fact that you are a monied girl. Why didn’t you tell me? You know I don’t chase riches,” Vanessa asked telepathically, with a serious look. “I… I’m sorry. Very sorry!” Evelyn apologized, with her head facing the ground.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
