Love Hurts

Chapter 6

"Yes, Mr. Wilson is Mr. Arthur's uncle, don't be ridiculous," she hit my shoulder.

"Ouch, that hurts, "I tried to massage it, "you must know a lot about their family"

She flipped her hair back like she was on a runway or something," I Know a lot about everyone's background, I work in HR"

"Oh, that's true, but what does Mr. Wilson do?" I looked at her and she shook her head, "you don't know?"

"I don't, just here and there, he lives a quiet life ever since Arthur's father died a few years back," her face turned cold.

"Wait, you mean the owner of this company is dead?"

"Yes, he died in a car accident, brake failure or something," she said brushing it off.

I'm sure something is weird about this, my phone rang in my pocket. I picked it up.

"Yes?-you are downstairs already?, alright I'm on my way," I hang up the phone and turned to Ella," I would be right back"

I excused myself and rushed down to meet Ben.

"How's your day going?"

"Not bad, just that I'm confused about some things," I said picking up the food Ben brought.

"Like what?"

"Mr. Wilson is Arthur's uncle,"

A wave of shock flashed through Ben's face," why would he want to kill his nephew?"

"He didn't say kill, he said spy," I corrected him," and I heard he's a gay," a sharp gasp escaped from his mouth.

"He would be mean and cold to girls, I don't want him to give you too much work"

"Don't worry, I would be fine, thanks for the food"

Arthur's POV

"Mom, I would try and take my drugs," I groaned, trying to hide the drugs.

She chuckled," I can see the behind you"

Well, my mom might be a little clingy but sweet I have a problem with my eye making it difficult for me to see things. I've been on drugs for months and it's improving but I want to go a day without the drugs.

"Mom, can I just skip today?"

"No you can't, and one more thing, your uncle is coming down here today and he would be here any minute"

Yeah, I understood, my uncle sucks. He acts like a living-dead around my mom and me. Maybe it's because of my dad's death that made him that way.

"Mom can't he come some other time, I have unfinished business at the office and_"

"No need, son it won't take too much of your time," I heard a familiar voice from behind me.

My same old uncle was was cold and uncool. My mom's face lit up immediately after she saw him. I stood there watching the two greet each other cheerfully-it was my mom that was cheerful- my mom excused herself leaving me with my uncle.

He walked up to me with a frown on his face," you've grown so big since I saw you last"

"I'm sure you saw me two days ago at the office," I rolled my eyes and he laughed.

"I love smart kids, let's chat for a while," he sat down in front of me, placing one leg on the other.

"How is work? I heard your PA died last week," he continued.

"I'm sure you are here not to talk about that, probably to tell me something new," I raised a brow at him.

He smiled and straightened his shoulder, "you are right Arthur, I have a new offer for you"

I kept quiet and he continued,

"A new PA, Rose Prescott, I assigned her already, what do you think?"

He must be joking, he didn't even ask me if I needed a PA or not. He jumps like a rabbit into my life and leaves the same way.

"And why are you telling me now?"

He cleared his throat," well, I thought you would need_"

"Oh, cut it, I get it already if that's all you want to tell me," I paused and looked at him," you may take you your

"I will, but promise you would be nice to her"

"That's my decision to make, I would see you later," I walked out of the room leaving him to his thoughts.
