Plan ahead

Betty woke up feeling excited about what had transpired between her and Phoenix last night. she went downstairs to prepare breakfast for the children before they would wake up. By the time she was done she heard footsteps she quickly set the food on the dining table.

"Good morning" their voices rang.

they settled down to eat when Phoenix walked down the stairs with a suitcase in his hands.

"Good morning Daddy" Sajan greeted

"Good morning" thank twins greeted

"Good morning sir Phoenix" Betty greeted causally and left as she could already feel the hard gaze coming from nix's stare. He sat down to join the kids and after a few minutes they were done.

"Niah....Noah" Nix called the twins

"You two would be going to school today with Sajan"

Niah's face lit up

"Really?"

He nodded.

"So go get prepared." he said handing them both a bag from his side.

They nodded with a smile plastered on their faces and left but Niah turned to nix

"Can we call you Daddy?"

Nix nodded

"Thanks daddy" she said running towards him she gave him a hug and so did noah

"Thanks Dad"

"Go get dressed" he said softly. When the twins and Sajan had left to get ready nix called for Betty

"Yes sir Phoenix"

"You go get dressed"

She raised a brow

"You'll follow me to work starting from today" he said coldly and took a sip from the glass of water from the table.

She wanted to say something but it seemed the words got caught in her throat. She bowed and left.

"Bye daddy" the kids kissed nix on the cheek as he hugged them all. He entered the car and sat besides Betty whom had been quite ever since they left the house.

"Let's go" he instructed the driver.

Betty was so lost in her thoughts she didnt even hear Nix informing her that they had arrived.

"Betty" he uttered her name snapping her from her dream land. She glanced at him with disarray evident on her face as his face remained expressionless

"We've arrived at his office ma" The driver explained to the confused Betty. She nodded and got down the car, she hurriedly followed nix behind.

Betty noticed how the girls drooled over nix as he walked in but she kept her cool knowing that she had nix had nothing to do with each other, besides the cold attitude he had disposed towards them made her heart flutter. They walked towards the elevator escaping the prying eyes of all the staffs.

Once Nix and Betty had entered the elevator, Betty saw a lady with a file in her hand walking towards them.....as if to join them

When the girl made to join them nix pulled out his hand gesturing her to stop, the elevator doors closed almost immediately after that.

Betty and nix didnt talk to each other through out the lift, when the doors opened Nix walked out first with Betty behind him.

They both walked into an office, Betty could feel her heart pulsate. Nix's face brightened with a light smile as he walked closer to Dilan who was bent busy on we paper works

"Never get to rest?" Nix said but as usual Dilan didnt mind to reply. He slowly raised his head and handed a pile of worksheet to nix

"I got a call from the hospital" he said standing up

"Can't you at least relive yourself of one.....you can't be working as a CEO and a doctor too"

"Besides I could take care of the company better than you while your away" nix said in a joking tone.

Dilan looked at nix

"I'll think about it" he said dryly

"That was unexpected" nix thought

"My secretary would take over" he said snitching the documents from him and handing them over to Betty who stop like an ice statue. She collected the papers from him and returned to her position

"You get yourself some rest" Nix tapped Dilan on the shoulders and without waiting for him to reply he left with Betty. Nix paused in his tracks

"Hope you got some plan ahead because I do" Nix said to Betty in a dry tone.

Betty felt strange.
