Sweet Revenge.

Emily sat anxiously on the chair and stared vividly at Jason Regan, her boss and her mistake. Jason was just sitting in front of the young woman, a table separating the both of them. Emily swallowed hard as Jason gave her a puzzled but chilling stare. "I'm pregnant" Emily muttered. "What did you just say lady?" Jason asked, pretending now to hear a word she spoke. "I said I'm pregnant Sir" Emily repeated. This time, she was audible. Jason chuckled at her response, "That's good my dear, congratulations" Jason said with a smile. Emily couldn't believe it, her eyes widened in disbelieve at Jason's attitude. He was trying to play dumb in this serious situation and she wasn't going to have it. "The pregnancy is yours Sir" Emily announced. Jason's broad smile disappeared in an instant. His ocean blue eyes instantly screamed of both fear and anger at the same time. "What the hell are you talking about Emily? Are you crazy?" Jason asked with a whisper. Emily looked at him, a sad smile appeared on her caramel brown face, tears began to gather on the eyelids of her small dark coloured eyes. "Sir, you remembered the night we had s*x, a month ago? I am a month pregnant, the baby inside of me is yours" Emily answered calmly. Jason looked away from her in some sort of rage. "Damn it Emily! Damn it! I thought you were a smart woman, but it seems you obviously aren't one. How could you let this happen?" Jason exclaimed. Emily immediately began to cry, Jason didn't even look at her talk more of consoling her. "I didn't know Sir, I really didn't" Emily said, admist tears. "Now listen to me young lady. If you want to keep this job, you better shut up and not tell a soul about this or else, you'll be sorry for it. It's not that I wanted sleep with you in the first place" Jason said. "So what do I do now Sir? I'm already a month pregnant" Emily asked desperately. Jason scoffed. "Just continue your life like nothing happened. I'll get back to you when I think of something. For now leave my room this instant" Jason answered, his tone was as stern as anything Emily must have heard in her lifetime. Emily stood up slowly, her legs shaking and her fingers trembling as she stood up from her seat. "I'll wait for your response Sir" Emily said, Jason waved his palm continuously, signaling her to leave. That was just the beginning, the beginning of the pains Emily would encounter in her simple life. It was a lovely Wednesday morning, the weather was beautiful and everyone seemed busy at every nook and cranny of the large mansion. This busyness extended to the surroundings of the mansion itself. "Emily can you get the sheets? You need to ensure the bed's are properly dressed, especially Mr Jason's" Mrs Smith called out. Emily rushed out of the door with a pile of sheets in both of her hands. "I'm here Mrs Smith, I'm about making the beds" Emily responded as she walked hastily up the stairs. "I trust you Emily, you always come through!" Mrs Smith answered and immediately, she turned to another maid who was hastily passing by and began to order her to take care of something. Emily continued to climb up the stairs until she had reached the last floor and began to walk down the hallway, she stopped in front of the first door in front of her and immediately pushed it open and walked straight into it. Emily was done arranging the room and making the bed. She smiled in delight to herself as she let out a sigh of relieve and wipped the bead of sweat on her forehead with the back of her palm. "Eigth room done and dusted" she said to herself proudly. But just as she was about to walk out of the room, the door flung open. A tall, handsome and well built young man stepped in. His blue eyes met hers, his pointy brown face and well chiseled jawline made Emily short of words. She just stood there, her mouth and eyes widened opened in amazement. The young man smiled sweetly at Emily but that didn't break off her trance. "Uhmmm so sorry I startled you" the young man spoke first. Immediately Emily snapped out of her daydream. "Oh, ehh sorry. But who are you?" Emily asked, after she had snapped out of her trance. The young man smiled. "I am the owner of this room" he answered sweetly. Emily's eyes widened in suprise. "I am very sorry Sir. I didn't know you had arrived already. I just finished cleaning the room and arranging the sheets, I was about leaving" Emily said as she scrambled to pick a basket in the room and leave, but just as she was about to leave the room. The young man stopped her. "Hey don't rush out like that, I'm still with you" He said. Emily turned her head to look at him, his smile warmed her heart, she immediately felt at ease. "I'm Jason, and you?" The young man asked. "I'm Emily" the maid answered shyly. Jason smiled at her and immediately, Emily's heart melted like plastic placed beside a fire, her eyes lit up with desire, she smiled back sheepishly. "You seem to be a very interesting person, but we can't talk for long because I believe you are still busy, aren't you?" Jason asked. "Uhm yes, yes I am quite busy" Emily stammered, she was short of words to express herself properly. "You can always come here when you are free, I will love to spend time with you" Jason said with a bright smile. Emily smiled and rushed out of the room after she had picked up her basket. Her heart began to pound loudly in her chest, she placed her right palm on her chest in a bid to calm herself down. She had heard of Jason Regan from the lips of other workers in the mansion but they had described the first son and heir of the "Regan Rander", one of the biggest designers brands in the world very lightly. He wasn't just handsome, he was captivating and friendlier than she had imagined. He didn't do much to win her heart, just a smile and some smooth words had already swept her off her feet. While Emily smiled to herself, she heard a loud yell. "Emily where on earth are you?!" The voice called out. Emily instantly snapped out of her fantasy again. "I'm coming ma'am!" Rosalind answered as she ran down the stairs. It was about 7:00pm in the evening and the Regan's just finished a sumptuous dinner. The dinner was in honor of Jason, who had been in the United kingdom for close to two years, handling the family's business over there. Every family member which comprised of Regan's two very young sisters, his mother and his father had decided to retire for the night, it was a long day and they needed rest, along with the maids and workers in the house. Emily quickly finished her chores and snuck out of the kitchen calmly. She made her way up the stairs and soon in front of Jason's door. Emily knocked gently on the door and in about thirty seconds, the door swung open with Jason standing at the door. He was topless and immediately Emily set her eyes on him, she gasped. Jason smiled, "Come in, I'll put a shirt on" He said. Emily walked calmly into the room and shut it behind her. Jason put on a tee-shirt. The Room was so big and fanciful, it seemed more like a living room than a bedroom. "Let's seat on the sofa, we would be more comfortable there" Jason suggested. Emily nodded in agreement and the two walked to the sofa and sat on it. Emily was at one end while Jason was at the other end. "Would you like to have anything? I got drinks and snacks you know" Jason offered, Emily smiled and shook her head. "No Sir that wouldn't be necessary, I'm okay" Emily protested. "No I insist, feel free, you are here as my guest, not as a maid, so feel free" Jason said calmly. "Alright sir, I'll have some shortbreads and fruit juice" Emily finally accepted. "Right choice Emily, but stop calling me Sir, you are my guest and it sounds weird coming from you" Jason said with a smile. Emily nodded and he left her and walked into one of the rooms in the large room. After about a few minutes he came back but this time, he had a tray in his hands. He placed the snacks in front of Emily and she smiled shyly. "Thank you so much Sir" Emily said. "Hey, remember you promised not to call me Sir, you are not a maid right now remember?" Jason said softly. "Alright, I wouldn't do that again, I mean it" Emily said, throwing her hands in the arm. The two laughed about it briefly. "So tell me a little bit about yourself" Jason said as he positioned himself well enough to hear everything Emily had to say. Emily smiled, "Well, there is nothing much to know. I Lost My parents at a very young age, I was brought up by my mother's sister, she gave me the best she could in life, always treated me like her own. When I turned twenty one, I decided to look for a job in other to take care of my aunt who became quite ill for up to a year now. That's pretty much everything about me I guess" Emily said calmly. Jason sighed heavily after he heard her story. "I'm so sorry about everything" He said. "Nah it's fine, I'm fine" Emily responded with a warm smile on her face. "You are one brave young lady you know" Jason said. "Waw really? You think so?" Emily asked in glee, Jason smiled at her. "Yes I am very certain about that" Jason answered with a nod. "Thanks, I really appreciate that" Emily said softly. "That's okay. So, do you have any dreams or probably aspirations you wish to accomplish?" Jason asked, he looked keenly into Emily's eyes while he asked the question. Emily was not just flattered, she felt grateful and somewhat surprised. No one had ever asked her that question before, except her aunt. "I always wanted to be a fashion designer, although I couldn't go to fashion school, I still haven't given up on that dream. Someday, it will all work out out, when I have enough savings to get myself there" Emily said. Jason's eyes lit up when he heard what Emily had just said. "Wow, that's incredible!" Jason said with a smile on his face, Emily blushed a little. "You think so?" Emily asked shyly. "I know so. You don't often see a lot of women who passed the through what you have passed through but are still hopeful and working towards their dreams. And your dreams are fantastic" Jason said. Emily looked at him, this was the first time she was ever this close to a guy and having a meaningful conversation with him, she didn't just get carried away by his looks this time, his concern about her and what she wanted was what cemented everything, she was falling for him harder than she initially thought she would. "Now let me ask, do you know how to create any designs of your own?" Jason asked. "Well yes, I got some drawings in my room back at home, whenever I get home, I'll pick them up and show them to you" Emily answered. "That's great. But you know what? I'll like you to work with me in the evenings. I could teach you a lot about fashion designing from creating your own designs and making those designs into beautiful collections" Jason said, Emily's eyes widened in suprise, she couldn't believe what she had just heard. "Wait, you mean, you'll teach me?" Emily asked, she wanted to be sure of what she heard. "Yes of course I will, you seem like a really talented lady, so I should help you, besides, I really like you" Jason said sweetly. Emily couldn't contend with the joy that filled her heart. Emily immediately sprang up from her seat and jumped for joy. "Thanks Jason, thanks for the opportunity, I wouldn't let you down, I promise" Emily said in excitement, Jason smiled at her. "It's okay my dear, just work hard and everything will be fine between us" he said. "I promise, I'll work hard, I really will!" Emily exclaimed. "Now sit down and finish your snacks, we are still discussing remember?" Jason asked sweetly. Emily smiled at him and sat down again. They continued to laugh and further discuss into the night.
