The Billionaire's Secret Lover

"Rise and shine baby girl"

Mom stops calling me that, I am not a baby, I'm 27 mom, remember.

I know my angel that you are 27, but no matter how old you are, you will always be my little girl...

"Patricia, leave the poor girl alone " my father's voice interrupted us in the doorway, as he ventures into the room with swag, I didn't know he has, smiling

"Its because you've been calling her baby girl, that's why she has refused to marry y that she's still a baby "father said as he hugged mom to his side

" Huh!! Whatever dad, you are just jealous because mom gives me attention" I retorted back smiling and pouting at him.

" Baby lets go" he lovingly dragged mom from my room.

I took my bath, immediately my parents left my room and pack my bag. I have been doing this for the past 10 years, coming to spend some time with them, before going back to school then but now I'm going back to work. My dad remarried three years later after I left for school, I now have a loving stepmother and an overprotective younger brother even though he's just seven, he acts like an adult and I adore him so much.

"Good morning sis, mom said to tell you that breakfast is ready," he said smiling

Speaking of the devil, I smiled back and went to hug him

"Ok little devil, let's go I'm through"

We make our way to the dining table and sat down. Mom was busy dishing our food while dad was typing away on his phone once a while he glances at me. He's giving me the creep. I sat down beside my mum and begin to eat, I couldn't help but remember those times when we barely eat three square meals a day. I'm now a graduate of journalism from New York University, after graduating from the University, I was able to secure a job in one of the prestigious Media house, Melton media. Where I will be working very soon. My dad now owns a shoe company called Pandora, while my stepmom is a baker. I love my family so much I wouldn't trade them for me anything.

"Angel don't you like the food, you've not eaten anything since," mum said sadly as she looks at me.

"Come on mom, don't be sad, I love it, I was just caught up on my thought I'm sorry".

"You'll be leaving for New York tomorrow, don't forget all that we've talked about".

"Yes, Dad."

Of course, all that dad and I have ever talked about is how I'm getting old and need a man in my life, blah blah blah, but I keep telling him that there's no man for me out there.

"Stop rushing the girl, Tom, when the right time comes she will surely get married to the right man," mum said smiling immediately jumping to my defense.

The phone ringing interrupted whatever is it that I wanted to add to what mum said, standing up as I took excuse for my parents, I walk to the sitting-room to take my phone.

"Hello, beautiful damsel," I said excitedly into the phone cuz it was my bestie calling.

"Hey, baby"Lilian practically shriek into the phone as she couldn't contain her excitement.

"Please do come back fast, you know you need to help me shop for my wedding gown, I can't believe that I will be getting married," she said cheerfully.

I groan inwardly" I will make sure that I come back early," I told her and she hung up the call after asking about my family.

All these weddings things are not making me happy, don't get me wrong, I'm very happy for Lillian but sometimes I feel like life is so unfair. Why does Lillian have to have it all, while I have nothing?

Immediately I walked back to the breakfast table and sat down, I look at mum and smile, I mouthed her a quick thank you. I love the way she defends me, it makes me miss my mum more.

"Dad I will be leaving for the airport very soon, I'll be resuming work next week, I want to go and get things done before my resumption and we still have Lilian's wedding to shop for.

"Ok when shopping for the wedding make sure you also shop for a man for yourself," my dad said sarcastically to piss me off.

he keeps telling me to get a man

will make sure to shop for a man to piss

on and off until my mum stops us from it, then I went to the airport to get

Michael's office

the center of New York. Michael loves to stand at the balcony when he's less busy and stare as people move around going through their daily businesses. Someone once said that in New York you could never be lonely, due to the millions of people there, but right now Michael is more than lonely, even when he's surrounded by two loving parents, two brothers, and a soon-to-be wife.
