Chapter 3 Tiffany steps out of the cab as she kepts running her eyes around her outfit. Since she didn't have much time to go home and freshen up, Laurene decides to lend her one of her gowns. The dress fitted her perfectly except, it was a little too tight for her since, she was more fleshy than Laurene. Tiffany hurriedly paid off the cab driver before ringing the doorbell. After a few seconds, the gate was opened by a man dressed in a blue and black uniform. Seems, he's the gate man. Tiffany thought and proceeded to greet him but then, he beat her to it. "Are you miss Tiffany? The new nanny?" The older man asks, staring intensely at her. Tiffany wondered how he knew her for a while but then, she remembered his boss must have informed him of her coming. " Yes I am, sir." "Alright, Please come inside." He says and opens the gate wide for her to step in. " Please go in and ring the bell." He instructed her. Tiffany nods and walks towards the direction he'd pointed at. After a while, she was ushered to the living room by a maid and there, she saw a blue haired man seated on the couch with a baby on his arms. His gaze was actually placed on the little baby and when he finally raised his head to her direction, Tiffany had almost lost her footing. "You're Tiffany, right?" His cold voice sent a shiver down her spine. She felt this man was just too handsome to be among the humans. " Y…yes I'm Tiffany." She finds herself stuttering at his intense gaze. Those hazel eyes of his were doing something she just couldn't fathom to her body. "You are one minute late but, I'd let this slide else, you'd have been fired this very minute!" He said making Tiffany get goosebumps on her skin. She has never met someone this handsome, cold and terrifying. "Th..Thank you sir." Tiffany managed to get a hold of her racing heart. "Your job here is to take good care of my Son. If he gets hurt, you'd have to pay for it! Your monthly payment is $200,000 and here is an advance payment of $100,000. I need a good job done; and you have to be living here at my house." He explains and each of his words were like him spiting out fire to Tiffany. Tiffany could feel her mouth watering at the amount of money she'd be receiving. She hurriedly collects the envelope containing the advance payment from Gerald assistant who was earlier standing behind him. "If you do have any questions, ask now." Clerk said to Tiffany who was staring blankly at the envelope placed on her hands. "Uhm, must I have to be living here?" Tiffany finally finds her voice. She was afraid these were strangers and secondly, she was afraid of leaving Amila on her own at home. "How are you supposed to take care of my kid if you don't live here?" Gerald scoffs as he tries not to raise his voice at her knowing his son was having his nap. "I'm paying you hugely so you'd have all the time to take good care of my son." Tiffany plans on opposing again but then, she remembered no other job would pay her such a huge amount of money. " There's no problem sir, I'll do it." "Good! Since your bag isn't here, you'd have to go get it once I'm back from work. For now, come carry him and the chief maid would show you to your room and that of my son." Gerald said. Tiffany immediately strides towards him as he places the child in her arms. His hands that rubbed against hers, had almost made her jump at the spark she felt. She had managed to reframe her actions by remembering his earlier warning of his child not getting hurt. Tiffany gaze lingers at the baby's face. He looked so handsome just like his father. The baby is an exact photocopy of Gerald and Tiffany felt happy she could stare at him all day in replacement of his father. Gerald gaze lingered on his son for a while before he proceeded towards the exit door with Clerk behind him carrying his suitcase. Immediately, the chief maid known as Ms, Mariam walks to Tiffany. "Hello, child. I'm Ms.Mariam and I'm the chief maid here. Come on let me show you to your room and that of little boss." Ms. Mariam said with a nice smile on her face. " Thanks Ms. Mariam, I'm Tiffany and I'm glad to work in same place as you." Tiffany said as she felt this sudden likeness toward Ms. Mariam. "Oh child, you're welcome. I'm sure you'd have a nice time working here. Mr. Gerald doesn't have a problem if you doesn't step on his toes. Since you are his son's nanny, I have to be very careful not to hurt his son to avoid his wrath." Ms. Mariam said as they were taking the stairs upstairs. "I understand perfectly Ms. Mariam. Uhm Ms. Mariam, do you have an idea if the baby has eaten? And what's his name?''Tiffany asks, remembering she'd forgotten to ask Gerald. "Yes, he has eaten and his name is Jake." Ms. Mariam said and at this moment, they arrived at the room Tiffany would be staying in. " This is your room and the opposite room belongs to Jake. As his nanny, you need to be very close to him just in case he needs your attention." Ms. Mariam said and Tiffany nodded . " I understand, Ms. Mariam." She said with an appreciative smile on her face. "Alright then, I think that's all for now. If you need anything for yourself or the baby, do not exitate to reach out to me, okay?" Ms. Mariam asked in a loving manner. " I'll Ms. Mariam." Tiffany said and the chief maid immediately walked out. Tiffany steps inside her new room with the baby in her arms. She was surprised to find him staring intensely at her.
