Babysitting The Billionaire’s Adult Son

Mr Gordon drives inside the garage. He pulls out the key from the ignition and steps down from the car.

“Don’t get down yet, wait for me to open the door for you.” He warns.

“Welcome back home, Dear friend.” Mr Gordon grins as he walks over to the passenger side of the car and opens the door for Melanie.

“It’s nice to be back to the mansion of trouble. How nice to be back here again.” She smiles, tapping Mr Gordon’s grip on her hand.

“What trouble are you talking about? Did we trouble you in any way?” He asks, not believing he has been troubling her all along.

“Ahh, Ahh! At all, you didn’t trouble me. I’m just saying, you know.” Melanie laughs weirdly and they both walk inside the living room, hand in hand.

They halt in their tracks seeing Archie in the living room with his gaze fixed on their intertwined hands. They both pull out their hands which makes Archie roll his eyes at them.

“You know I don’t have any problems with that,” He scoffs letting his earphones slide down to his neck. “I don’t fucking have a problem with you guys holding hands.” He repeated which made the two love birds leave each other’s side.

“Can you guys at least provide food before you go out to do your love plays? Goodness! I’ve been hungry since thinking you guys are busy with some stuff not knowing this is the kind of stuff you’re both busy with.” He scoffs, dropping his pencil on the closed sketchbook.

“Ahh! Hungry,” Mr Gordon stuttered nervously. “You’re hungry, right? Okay, I will tend to that.” Mr Gordon says, dashing off to the kitchen.

‘Shit’

He curses under his breath as he enters the kitchen. He peeks at Melanie from the keyhole and he sees that she’s not following him.

Archie discreetly smiles at his father. He moves his gaze to Melanie who wouldn’t take her eyes off his father. He knows what’s going on between them but he won’t say it.

“Aunt where were you…”

“Alright, I’m going to assist him in the kitchen so that the food will be ready on time.” Melanie cut him off midway through his sentence.

Archie shakes his head negatively, watching Melanie strides inside the kitchen. “The food is going to take forever.” Archie cries out.

Melanie walks inside the kitchen and meets Mr Gordon clad in a white apron that fits his body perfectly.

“Nice apron.” Melanie fakes a cough as she moves closer to have a better look at what he was mixing inside the bowl.

“Finally off the big boy sight?” Mr Gordon smirks, breaking eggs inside the bowl.

“More like I run.” Melanie laughs and Mr Gordon chuckles at her.

“Why are you here in those heavy dresses?” He asks, putting flour inside the bowl.

“I want to help you with the cooking.” Melanie smiles moving her hair behind her ear.

“You should go and freshen up. You can come to help me after you put on something light.” He says, putting his hands on her waist.

“Okay,” Melanie nods, she smooches his cheek and dashes out of the kitchen.

“Hey, don’t stumble.” Mr Gordon grins foolishly. He picked up the bowl and started mixing it.

Melanie walks out of the kitchen and sees Archie engrossed in the sketchbook in his hand.

“What are you doing?” Melanie asks, moving closer to Archie that had his earphones fixed on both his ears.

Melanie wants to peek at what he’s drawing but Archie notices her presence and quickly hides the book behind his back.

“Let me see what you’re drawing.” Melanie stretches her hands out to him.

“No, I won’t.” Archie packs his books and rushes up the stairs.

“Hey, I have my eyes on you,” Melanie yells to his hearing.

“Same here, Aunt. I have my eyes on you two.” He stuck his tongue out at her.

“Stubborn boy.” Melanie smiles as she walks up to her room.

Getting inside, her eyes meet with the boxes of dresses that Elena and her crew brought in the morning.

“I’m yet to thank him for the dresses.” Melanie sighs and walks up to her bed.

She zips down her gown and lets it fall to her knees.

She grabs the dress and dumps it inside the laundry basket.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She strides inside the bathroom and closes the door behind her. She picks up her brush and applies toothpaste on it, as she’s brushing her teeth the thought of early at the hillock flashes to her memory and she lets out a smile.

“He’s cute.” She smiles and hides her face from the mirror.

She spat out the foam and rinsed her mouth with the tap water.

She peels off her undies and gets under the shower to have a quick bath.

She walks back to her room minutes later and walks to her closet.

She flung it open and picked out purple pants and a pink hoodie from the wardrobe.

She walks back to the bed and lets the towel fall to the ground. She dresses quickly and rushes out of her room.

Getting to the kitchen, she meets Mr Gordon seated on the counter. She walks to him and he lifts her to sit beside him.

“You smell nice.” Mr Gordon smiles as he dips his face in her neck, taking in her sweet smell.

“Ha ha,” Melanie laughs, rubbing his hair. “You need to freshen up too. I will take up the cooking from here so go on and fresh up.” Melanie says, pulling his head up.

“Alright, I will be back.” he pecks her forehead before jumping down from the counter.

He walks out of the kitchen and meets Archie ascending the stairs. “Please help your Aunt with the serving.” He says to Archie and pats him lightly on his back.

Archie smirks when his father is out of sight. “Wow, indeed, love can change people.” he shakes his head and walks inside the kitchen.

“What should I help you with?” He asks Melanie as he walks inside the kitchen.

Melanie turned to him in surprise. “Why are you here?” She asks, stopping with what she’s doing.

“He asks me to help you with the serving.” Archie shrugs his shoulders, he walks to the counter and picks up fries from the plate.

“You seem to be in a good mood, anything you want to tell me?” Archie asks with an obvious smirk.

“I have always been like this, just don’t go there.” Melanie turns her back on him, smiling widely as she remembers what happened when they were on the hillock.

“Okay,” Archie laughs and Melanie wonders what he’s thinking.

After dinner, Melanie walks up to her room to have a good nap.

She walks to her room and snuck under the duvet. She rolls the duvet over her body, ready to have a good sleep when her phone makes a beep.

She picks up her phone and it is a message from Mr Gordon.

She jumps down from the bed and slides her foot inside the flip-flop before running out of her room.

‘Why am I so excited to watch the waterfall with him?’ She shakes her head and increases her steps.

She gets outside and sees Mr Gordon from afar, his back is facing her. For the first time, Melanie wants to rush to him and hug him from the back.

She walks quietly to his back.

“What do you think about the offer? Do you want to work there?” Mr Gordon asks Melanie to let the idea of hugging him from the back slide as he’s already aware of her presence.

“Yes, I want to do it.” She smiles, joining him in waterfall gazing.

“Since you’re part of the family working at the company will slowly draw you to the organisation. Are you ready to face them?” Mr Gordon asks, his tone seems serious and so is the look on his face.

“Yes, I’m aware of that,” Melanie gulps down the lump in her throat. “But since you’ll be there, I’ll be safe,” Melanie assured him with a charming smile.

“You are so cute.” Mr Gordon pinch her nose. “Thanks for believing in me.” He smiles and pulls her to himself. He wraps his arms around her chest, pulling her until her back hits his hard chest.

“Are you okay with it?” Melanie suddenly asks and he nods.

“Hmm,” He mumbles, sniffing in her scents. One habit he recently developed is sniffing her sweet smell.

She smells like a peach and he happens to love the scent.

“Will you escort me to the company tomorrow?” Melanie asks, she’s a little bit nervous at the thought of going alone.

“Yes, I will take you there.” Mr Gordon says with a sniff on her shoulder.

“Which of the compounds do you think he’s taking me to?” Melanie asks, she’s not sure if she has any idea of the location.

“The one that deals with fashion,” Mr Gordon chuckles and Melanie wonders what’s making him laugh. “Since you’re as beautiful as a goddess I believe you’ll do well in the organisation.” He sniffs her scent and suddenly stops.

“What?” Melanie asks with eyes half closed. She notices he stops sniffing her scent and she wonders why. She has suddenly derived relaxation in the act.

“The organisation is filled with handsome young lads… you can’t fall in love with any of them right?” He suddenly seems serious and Melanie mumbles half asleep.

“Hmm hmm,” She mumbles and he smiles at what she says.

Minutes later, Mr Gordon releases Melanie from the back hug and she falls back into his arms.

“She’s sleeping already!” He chuckles and lifts her in his arms, taking her inside the house in bridal style.

He groans as he carries her up the stairs but he wouldn’t stop smiling while staring at her face.

They get to her room and he takes her inside. He carefully drops her on the bed and covers her up with the duvet.

“Good night, sweetheart!” He smiles and switches off the light as he walks out of her room.

“I love you,” Melanie mumbles in her sleep as she turns on the bed.
