8 Know each other before their wedding

Felicity blushed harder as she twirl her fingers in her gown and softly nodded before replying in a soft voice "I'm okay."

"What do you say I take you out? I'm a little free at the moment, we can go look around and also get to know each other" Raymond smiled.

Katherine was on alert when she heard that "I'm sorry sir but we agreed of you just meeting her. She will still need some time before going out with you" she protested.

Raymond gave her a dangerous glare before saying in a voice surprisingly much softer and gentler than his glare "come on aunty, I just need to get to know my fiancée and I'm sure she wants to know me too."

Katherine froze when she heard 'aunty' from him, so she is his aunty now, what happened to McCarthy? "But boss..."

"It's okay Katherine. Let them get to know each other before the wedding" Mercy said.

Raymond looked at her and thought, looks like he is going to like this nanny, he smiled and then looked at Katherine with a raised eyebrow.

Katherine let out a frustrated sigh "fine" she squeezed Felicity arm "go on my dear, you go with him. You can also ask any question that you want, I'm sure he will answer" she looked at Raymond with a raised eyebrow.

Raymond frowned, is she building a trap for him? What has she told her niece to ask him? He was suddenly having a bad feeling about this but come on, what's the worst that could happen? He will just not answer anyone he doesn't want to, he thought and smiled "of course."

Felicity looked up then and looked at her aunt with a worried look but Katherine smiled "you will be fine, he won't hurt you. At least he knows he won't."

"Of course I won't hurt you Felicity" Raymond cooed "where do you want to go? The amusement park?"

Felicity looked at him with shiny green eyes, it's been long she visited the amusement park, looks she is going to like this her husband, yes like, after all, aunty Katy said she should not love him so it's like. She looked at Katherine with pleading eyes and she chuckled "fine go" she waved at her before thinking that her boss really know how to buy a girl's heart.

Felicity sprung to her feet immediately and almost got herself back in the sofa if Katherine hadn't caught her "be careful my dear" she said to her and Felicity looked at her heels frowning, how is she going to play in the amusement park with these now?

As if sensing her worries, Raymond stood up with a smile "you don't have to go in that, you can wear something more earth level so you can run around in the park."

Felicity looked at him with gratefulness in her eyes, she quickly bent over and took off her heels without even waiting for her aunt's permission. She stood on the floor with a her barefoot and gave a relieved sigh, she twirl her toes on the floor, loving the cold feeling. Beside her, she heard the deep chuckling of a man's voice and she looked to see a tall man already beside her, she looked away immediately as her cheeks turned bright red.

Katherine stood up and offered to go get her one of her slippers. She returned later to find out that Felicity was already inside the car, her eyes asked question and Mercy answered "Mr Baldwin carried her to the car."

"Oh" she said and took the slippers to her, Felicity collected it and put it on immediately while Raymond got in beside her and Morris shut the door before walking to the driver's side and got in. Katherine and Mercy watched the black Bentley sped off with worry in Katherine's eyes and smiles in Mercy's own.

"Why do I feel like Raymond Baldwin is actually gentle compared to what I have heard of him?" Mercy asked.

"Don't be fooled by that" Katherine said "he is only gentle to Felicity because he doesn't want her to back off from his plan."

"Hmm, I think he might like her. I saw the way his gaze never left her" Mercy insisted.

Katherine turned to look at her "Mercy, he is my boss and I'm telling you that whatever he did today is only to buy Felicity's heart, he is good like that with women. I just hope Felicity doesn't fall for his gentle ways."

Mercy sighed and they both looked at the direction the car left before walking back inside.

Raymond took Felicity to one of the most famous amusement park in New York. Felicity gasped at the beauty of it and ran around like the child she was, she wanted to ride everything ridable and kept pointing at anyone she see, Raymond and Morris followed behind, acting like her body guards. They first registered for her to ride the Ferries Wheel, she got in happily but when she saw that neither Raymond nor Morris got in too, her eyes teared up.

"What is she doing?" Raymond asked with a frown.

"I think she is about to cry sir" Morris answered.

"Why?" Raymond frowned "wasn't she happy about this a while ago? Does she suddenly want to change her ride?"

"I don't think that is the problem sir."

"Then what is it? Be out with it."

"I think she wants us to ride with her" Morris answered carefully.

Raymond looked at him unbelievably "I should get into that? When I was a child I didn't even ride it and you want me to ride it now?"

"It's what the lady wants sir."

Raymond looked at Felicity who was already dabbing at her eyes and looked at the man who was about to start the ride and heaved a frustrated sigh "hold it. One more ticket."

Morris was surprised, he never expected him to agree to her childish request, but whatever, he thought. Raymond collected the ticket and passed it to Morris who looked at him with confusion "what sir?"

"Well? You said she want us to join which means one is enough. You don't expect me to get in that do you?"

Morrie sighed, perhaps he concluded too fast, why will the Almighty Raymond Baldwin get in a childish ride because of a woman? He shook his head self depreciatingly and collected the ticket before getting into the ride next to Felicity whose eyes had brightened when she heard Raymond called for another ticket.

It became a rule of the day that whatever ride Felicity got in, Morris is not far behind. Raymond mainly searched for a coffee shop and sat down while he wait for them to finish their rides.
