"I have my ways" he said.
"Can you please come in let's talk?"
He said and l nod.
I followed behind him.
Woooow! This place is paradise.
My goodness! Look at the interiors they are amazing.
We got to the largest living room have ever seen.
Fuck! This place is beautiful.
The living room is bigger than my f*****g hell of a house.
"Sit! He said and l took a seat.
"Here! Take it" he said and handed me a glass of wine.
"Thanks" l said.
"Thank you Daniella for saving my life, l will forever be grateful.
Am sorry l left the other day without saying goodbye.
I was traced and my father instructed l should be brought home immediately.
"How were you traced?"
"This" he said and pointed at his necklace.
It's not just any necklace there is a tracker on it.
"Oh! It's good you are safe."
"What job do you have for me?"
"Please be my personal nurse." He said
"What! I yelled in surprise.
"I will take responsibility for your college fees and pay you monthly."
"But l don't know how to treat a person" l lied.
"From what l know you studied nursing in college."
"Please Daniella."
"You are Connor Braxton there are lot of professional nurses who will kill to touch you why me?
Why do you have to choose me? A drop out.
Am sorry l will have to decline your request."
"We are two different persons l can't work for you am sorry l will leave now."
"Daniella! He called.
"Think about it" he said and l nod.
Hours later, l got to my apartment.
I took of my dress quickly and hurriedly prepared dinner for mom.
I kept thinking about Connor's proposal.
Why me?
I put the food in a flask walk out of the room and shut the door behind me.
On my way to the hospital l met Ariel.
Daniella! She squealed excitedly on seeing me.
"Ariel! Where are you heading?
"To your place."
"Oh! Am on my way to the hospital you can come with me."
"I have good news."
"Is it about the job?"
"No it's about my mother Connor sent his brother to pay for my mother's treatment my mother is currently at the VIP section and she is properly taken care of ."
"Woooow! Am happy am so happy for you Daniella."
"Who is this Connor?"
"My f*****g goodness! Don't tell me l didn't tell you."
"No you didn't, who is he?"
"Connor Braxton l saved him few weeks ago."
"Connor Braxton the second heir of the Braxtons the third generation family, the ones that have the largest conglomeration in the whole of the US?"
"Yes!
"And you also met his brother?"
"Yes!
"My goodness! Am speechless."
"You mean you met Wyatt Braxton and Connor Braxton in person?"
"Yes!
"Oh my God! That's amazing l heard Connor is more handsome in real life is it true?"
"Yes he is more handsome but Wyatt is also handsome they are both handsome."
"You met with two great personalities."
"You must feel honored."
"Yeah yeah whatever."
"So about the job?"
"Well the person turns out to be Connor."
"My God! Am happy for you sweetie so what job did he offer?"
"He wants me to be his personal nurse."
"Woooow! That's good many girls will kill to be in your shoes."
"But l declined."
"What! Are you crazy?"
"He promised to pay for your college fees remember."
"Seriously Daniella, you are acting dumb right now opportunity they say come but once."
"Don't throw away this huge opportunity girlfriend."
"Why me?
"Why me?
"That shouldn't bother you, you have to go back there and tell him you accept the job."
"You need it Daniella, you need to go to college and be successful you have your mother to take care of and you still have to investigate the murder of your father."
"If you do not become successful you can't achieve anything.
In this world the rich are most respected.
"Thanks Ariel l will think about it."
I just got back from the hospital mother's health is improving am very happy.
I entered the kitchen to get some food to eat.
I heard a knock at the door.
"Who is there? Coming! I said and rushed to open the door.
I opened the door and gasped in surprise.
Wyatt what is he doing here?
"Good evening" l greeted.
"Can l come in?" He asked.
"Oh! Yes come in " l stuttered.
"How did you know this place? I asked.
"I have my ways."
That's the same thing Connor said.
what's with this rich folks?
"I came for a reason."
"Am listening."
"I want you to be my fiancee for two months."
"What!
What! I exclaimed and stared at him wide eyed.
"I promise to sponsor you in college, buy you a house in Canada your dream country, and build a hospital in your name as Soon as you graduate from college."
"I brought documents we can sign an agreement."
"How did you know my dream country is canada?"
"That does not matter, Please l need your help as the first heir am supposed to present my fiancee on my twenty fifth birthday which is coming in a month time."
"It's getting late already can you please leave l will need time to think about this."
"Alright! See you soon" he said and left.
My f*****g goodness! How did l get myself in this mess?
What do they take me for some kinda gold digging w***e.
Two brothers one needs me as his personal nurse and the other wants me to be his fiancee how interesting.
This is crazy but as tempting as it is l will pass l need to talk to Ariel.
Ever since l haven't gotten a new phone.
Her mother will definitely scold me for not visiting for so long.
Shared on w******p by Martino
It's late already.
Tomorrow morning l will go meet Ariel and explain things to her l really need someone to talk to.
That's the reason l like her.
She is different.
Other girls in this situation will gladly accept the offer.
Who wouldn't want to work for the Braxtons.
Am liking her even more.
And for Wyatt l never told him about Daniella.
How did he get to find out and why did he lie to her?
I need to confront him.
The door opens and here comes the devil.
"Hey babe" she said and pecked me on the cheeks.
Aww gross! I thought.
"Brielle! Why are here? I asked irritated by her presence.
"Am your future wife so l have every right to be here" she replied.
Brielle is the daughter of my mother's best friend.
Her mother is the owner of trott.
One of the companies that is held high esteemed in the US.
She is just a b***h who wants attention.
My mother has been forcing her on me and she isn't helping matters.
Always clingy.
I hate clingy women.
"As you can see am busy so you are not welcomed please leave" l said sternly.
"Am not going anywhere" she said and sat on the swivel chair opposite my desk typing away on her phone and a chewing bubble gum.
"Stop it b***h, where are your manners don't you see am trying to concentrate here" l said angrily.
For f**k sake those she have to chew it out that loud.
"Your called me a b***h?" She asked with a face that made me want to laugh at her.
"Am going to tell Aunt." She said and l chuckled.
"Just get lost will you?" I retorted.
Hump! She said and stomped her feet on the floor hissed stomped out of the office and banged the door hard.
I can't believe mom wants me to get married to a mad woman a pyschopath.
I took my phone and called the receptionist.
"Why did you allow that b***h into my office?"
"Am sorry sir, she forced her way in before l could call am truly sorry" she said from the other end.
"Whatever" l said and hung up.
She just succeeded in spoiling my mood.
The telephone rang again.
Yes!
"Sir your brother is here to see you."
" Do you have to call me first? Let him in" l said and ended the call.
The door creaked open and Wyatt walked in.
Well he is here at the right time.
Hey brother! I said.
"How are you doing?" He asked.
"Am good! as you can see" l replied and he settled on the couch in the office.
"I just came to see how you are fairing and don't forget my birthday is around the corner."
"Yes l can't forget something that important."
"Wyatt! How do you know Daniella Abby and why did you lie to her?
How did you know l was saved by her l don't remember mentioning it to you."
He looked at me and was somehow taken aback by my sudden question.
"Well l just wanted to show appreciation to the person that saved my beloved brother.
Am sorry l lied.l found out from one of the people that brought you home.
He told me the place they found you and l did some investigation and found out it was her.
I just wanted to thank her on your behalf.
"Oh! It's okay l knew you had your reasons."
"So have you gotten a fiancee yet, you are supposed to present your fiancee on your twenty fifth birthday."
"Yeah l haven't found one but l was thinking of bringing Daniella Abby and introduce her to dad and mom as my fiancee" he said and my face turned pale.
"It's there a problem Connor?" He asked.
No! Am good l lied.
Oh no this can't be happening!
I watched as his face turned pale.
This is exactly what l wanted.
I knew he likes Daniella.
That's why am bent on making her mine.
I had planned to murder whosoever that saved him but when l found out he likes her already l had to stop and plan things out she will be my tool in eliminating him.
I can't bear to complete with him am the first son and I will be the only heir no matter what.
Am going to eliminate him in a way they won't even trace it to me.
I know our mother doesn't trust me.
His mother precisely.
That's why am being cautious but he is dumb to see through me.
"Connor you okay!" I asked again.
"Yeah! Yeah! Am fine, l was actually thinking of something" He replied and forced a smile.
"Oh yeah! I knew he was thinking about his proposal to Daniella, l bet am going to beat him to it."
"If you don't mind, l will get going l have some business to attend to" l said and got up and straighten my shirt.
"It's fine thanks for the visit" He said and smiled faintly.
I have to see Daniella.
I can't let her be my brothers fiancee.
I have always agreed with Wyatt in everything but l think l can't just let go this time.
The telephone rang again.
"Hello sir! Mrs Braxton is here to see you"
"Do you have to call me first you are so annoying" l said and dropped the call.
The door opened and my mother walked in.
"Good day mom! I greeted and pecked her on her cheek."
She settled on the seat quietly.
This is unusual for her.
Why is she being quiet?
"Mom what's with the silent mode" l asked and she flared up.
This isn't good.
"Really! Silent mood, well your stupidity has rendered me speechless" she yelled.
"Seriously mom! When are you going to stop pestering me? I asked angrily
Is it because Brielle told you l told her to get lost? I meant it when l told her to get lost because she is irritating."
"Connor are you really my son?
Why are you so carefree and disobedient? You are the direct opposite of me."
"Say whatever you want mother am already used to it."
"Wyatt birthday is coming up what her your plans" she asked.
"What plans?"
