Chapter 1

"Work for me"

"What! Are you serious?" She asked, her eyeballs pulling out of their socket as she stared wide at him.

He was just standing not so far from her, his beautiful cologne scent filling her nostrils. His dark eyeballs gazing through hers with an arrogant look on his face.

"Are you in or not Miss? I won't ask twice" He said and she scoffed.

"You smashed my phone on the floor with your stupid car and all you've got to say is work for me?!" She yelled.

"A new phone? Is that what you want?" He asked and she hissed.

"What does he take me for? Cheap?"

☆Flashback☆

The road was sloppy and wet as a result of the rain that fell last night. Tessa had just come down from a taxi cab. She was really desperate for job at that moment that forgot where her phone was.

"Wait, my phone!" Her eyes widened when she turned and her eyes landed on a latest brand new iphone 15.

She almost rushed to pick it and that was when the devil's car smashed it.

"My baby!!!!!" She screamed, almost running mad immediately. The person in the car stopped abruptly when he heard her scream and he suddenly came down.

She walked angrily to him and pushed his chest.

"How dare you?! Do you know how much I bought that phone! Do you know how much I payed for the screen guard?" She shouted but he just there without any expression on his face.

"Incase you don't know who you're talking to I'm the CEO of Flynn's Holdings and you're blocking my way" He replied, referring to a building just behind them. That was when Tessa turned to look at the building she was just about entering.

FLYNN'S HOLDINGS.

"Huh?" She quickly covered her mouth, her cheeks flushed in embarrassment. She just embraced herself in front of him. The CEO.

"Work for me" That was what he brought up next.

"What! Are you serious?"

**SOME HOURS LATER

The beeping of the smashed phone and the screams from the alarm was enough to wake a normal human being up but, not Tessa Thompson.

Her loud snores filled her room with her legs being thrown in the air. Her phone kept beeping repeatedly but, that didn't stop her snores.

The door flew open, and Natalie, Tessa's best friend, walked in angrily with Kelly her pet dog.

"Tessa!!!!

That was when, Tessa remembered she has a job to do. She hastily ran out of bed, rushing straight into the bathroom.

"You came back home and just fell asleep, how did your job hunting went?" Natalie scoffed.

"Please don't ask me that" Tessa shot going to have a quickie shower.

"Okay" Natalie scoffed , playing with Kelly as she left the room.

Soon, She was done with her bath. Putting on a plain jean and a shirt plus a fur jacket, she grabbed her handbag before zooming out of her room.

"Hi Kelly!" She smiled when Kelly ran towards her.

"So, going to meet your one time crush? Hayes Flynn" Nathalie asked from behind and Tessa rolled her eyes.

"He isn't my crush Nat! He's a brat! But my newest boss!" She drawed and Nathalie snickered.

"Anyway...gotta go, bye!" Tessa exclaimed, rushing out of the apartment.

"Wait, you haven't... Oh she's gone!"

✮FLYNN'S HOLDINGS✮

Tessa ran all the way into the building, she didn't even mind the receptionist calling her. All she needs to do was accept Hayes's offer. She needs the money anyways.

She was still walking hastily when she ran into a guy in the elevator. She nearly bumped into him.

"Ouch."

"Watch it miss" The guy snapped at her, pressing the few buttons. Tessa raised her head to look at whoever it was, her eyes widened when she saw a figure just like that of Hayes. Just the same height, even his eyes and face looks exactly like him.

"Stop staring at me or else you're gonna fall" He cut in and she scoffed, turning to the other side.

"Just as arrogant as Hayes Flynn" She muttered and he chuckled as he turned to her, his one hand in his pocket.

"Do you know I'm his younger brother?" He whispered to her, much closer to her.

"Huh?!!!" She shouted, going far from him and he chuckled again.

The elevator opened and he stepped out. Tessa made to go out too, and that's when he turned back to look at her.

"You're sexy bitch" He winked naughtily at her before walking out of her sight. She didn't see him again.

"Me? Bitch? Who the fuck..."

"Please no swearing words" A voice spoke from the floor and Tessa turned to see a teen lady holding piles of books looking like documents in her hands.

"Um..."

"Follow me" The lady instructed, walking away, Tessa followed.

"Gosh Tessa! You talk and swear too much!" She muttered and smacked her head.

The lady turned to a door and knocked gently on it.

"Sir" She called.

"Linda, come in" A hoarse voice was heard from inside and Tessa's throat itched.

"Hayes Flynn?" She thought.

"Follow me" Linda said and Tessa obliged, following her inside.

Right there she saw Hayes Flynn, working on his laptop. He seems so engrossed in whatever he was doing cus he wasn't sparing them any glance.

"Someone came in sir" Linda spoke again and that was when he raised his head from his laptop.

His eyes net with Tessa's and he slowly clenched his fist. The lady who insulted him back there. He didn't believe she would actually turn on to his proposal.

"Leave us Linda" He said.. Linda bowed before going outside, giving them some privacy.

Hayes stood up from his swivel chair, inserting his hands in his pocket as he went to stand in front of her. He's tall and huge but she was quite an average with a tiny figure making her look cute.

"So you've got the mind to step into my company... What if I arrest you for entrance?" A smirk crept up on his lips as he said those words.

"Then... Then , I'll arrest you for also smashing my new phone" She replied and he bit his lips.

"I like you already. You're brave." He whispered..

"Well Sir, I'm here to accept whatever proposal you have for me"

Hayes sighed loudly, dropping his hands from his pocket. He went to stand beside the window, gazing through the colourful atmosphere.

"Be my sons Nanny for six weeks" He replied.

"Why? You couldn't even ask me if I want it? Nor a please would do" She rolled her eyes at him.

"Please? When you badly need the job Miss Tessa Thompson?"

"Whatever"

"Accept or nah?"

"I accept... Just for six weeks" She nodded with a smile.

"Good! Now your job starts now... Here's my home address, my two boys are gonna be coming back from school soon and I need you to take good proper care of them... One of them is allergic to peppers especially chilly peppers" He instructed, handing her a small card.

She stared at the card in her hands and back at him.

"But how do I know which one is allergic?" She questioned.

"You'll know. They are both smart" Be replied, walking to sit back on his chair.

Hi mescanamezu on 08997655686 to be added on story land

"Start now!" He added.

"Yes sir" She replied, rushing outside. He chuckled when he saw the way she ran outside.

"She hasn't seen anything yet..." He mumbled under his breath, before concentrating back on his laptop.

✮HAYES'S MANSION✮

Tessa didn't need a taxi cab since Hayes prepared everything like he had known she'd come back to him. He actually instructed one of his personal drivers to bring her to his place.

"Thanks" Tessa smiled when she came out from the car.

"My pleasure miss Thompson" The driver smiled back and Tessa chuckled, shaking her head as she walked into the house.

She mouthed a big wow when her eyes met the cool colourful walls of the house, the frames on the wall giving it more dazzling and alluring looks.

"How can an arrogant jerk be living in this kind of house?"

She didn't know when she walked to a frame and started touching them one by one. One was a picture of a cute baby boy and the other was another cute boy. Her eyes went to another and she saw the guy who she bumped into at the company.

"He is really Hayes Flynn's brother" She gasped, touching the picture. Her eyes moved to the next one and there he was. He was just a teen then, he wasn't even smiling. He was wearing a cold look on his face.

"He isn't even smiling... What a goat" She scoffed.

"Are you going to stand there forever?" A voice was heard. Tessa flinched and almost broke the frame but she held it quickly before slowly turning.

Her eyes landed on two young hotties. They were glaring hard at her with a cold expression. Just like Hayes, they took after their father.

"Um... Hi" She smiled awkwardly, returning the frame back to it's position.

The one looking quite older scoffed, walking upstairs to his room.

"Hi" The younger one greeted, walking away too.

"Oh .. He didn't tell me they were also rude" She muttered.

"Oh, guys. I'll be your new Nanny from now on but you can both call me Tessa" She addressed.

The one on the stairs heading to his room stopped to look at her.

"We didn't tell our dad we were in need of a nanny? Besides, if we need a nanny we will look for a more beautiful and chubby one not the one looking like a tin can of sardine standing in front of us" He replied, glaring hard at her.

"What! I'm a tin can of sardine?! Boys, I'm more older than you so you should learn how to speak nice to me" She shunned him immediately.

"Tin can" The second boy mocked and Tessa shot dagger eyes at him.

"I thought Nanny's are supposed to be kind but why are you so angry?" The older one asked again.

"Oh my goodness! I'll go make something for you guys while you both have your bath" She replied, ignoring them till she got to the kitchen.

They both giggled cutely, running upstairs to their room.

Five minutes later, they came back downstairs now changed in a casual clothes. They went to the dining room to see two plates of fried rice and chicken waiting for them.

"Seems like she's quite fast" The younger one shrugged, taking his seat.

"She isn't Nathan.. if it was me I'll only spend two minutes making us lunch" The older one said proudly.

"Like you can even on the gas cooker" Nathan scoffed, rolling his eyes.

"Whatever"

The older one was about eating when an idea came into his head.

"Wait Nathaniel, let's add small pepper to our food" He smirked creepily.

"No way! We both know I'm allergic to peppers!" Nathan replied and he groaned.

"C'mon Nathan, we both don't like the new Nanny dad got for us and just like how we chased out the previous one, we're gonna chase her away too" He whispered, mischievously.

"Why is it supposed to be me and not you Liam?" Nathan asked.

"Because it'll be more fun" He replied. Nathan sighed when Liam slowly tiptoed into the kitchen.

Soon, Liam ran back to the dining room with a cup full of grounded chilly peppers, he poured it on Nathan's food and his too before dropping it.

"Now eat" He smiled and Nathan nodded. Little by little, He ate from his food gently, and his eyes bulged out when his body began itching him.

"Ahh!! Liam what did you do?!!!" He screamed in pains and Liam quickly covered his mouth.

"Shush! She would know!" Liam snapped at him but then Nathan kept shouting.

"My body!! Ahhh!!!"

Tessa ran straight into the dinning room , panting heavily from upstairs. Her eyes widened when she saw red marks on Nathan's body. The allergies are starting to take place.

"Younger one!!!" She shouted, rushing to him.

"He's Nathan and not younger one!" Liam almost snapped at her.

"What.. What's happening to him?" She asked, feeling nervous.

"You poured too much pepper in our food! Thought dad would have instructed you not to!" Nathan shouted at her and Tessa's eyes bulged out.

"No!! I swear I didn't put too much pepper. I made sure I tasted it before serving it to you guys" Tessa started freaking out.

She surely don't wanna loose her job.

"I'm calling dad!" Liam shouted rudely. He brought out his phone from his pocket and dialled Hayes's line.

"Please don't! I swear I didn't put too much pepper!" She kept shouting.

"Hello dad" Liam voice came up and Hates answered over the phone.

The screams of Nathan's voice could be heard and Hayes almost went mad. He doesn't joke when it comes to his son's.

"What's going on Liam?! What's happening!!" He shouted over the phone.

"The new Nanny you gave to us actually put too much pepper into our food and it's affecting Nathan right now dad" Liam lied, smirking arrogantly at Tessa.

"Wait! I didn't!" Tessa tried defending herself but it was too late because Liam hung up already.

"Dad is coming" He said.

"Please somebody do something!!?" Nathan screamed. His body was starting to turn red, his throat itching him severely and he couldn't stop scratching.

Tessa made to touch him but he shoved her away.

"Don't touch me!!!" He shouted at her, and Tessa jumped crazily in the air

"Eee! I'm finished ooo!! I didn't do anything wrong!!!"

Minutes later, Hayes bursted into the house, he ran straight into the dinning room, rushing to carry Nathan.

"Nathan! Nathan! What happened?" He shouted, Nathan could barely opened his eyes talk more of his mouth.

"She did this!" Liam pointed at Tessa who started crying immediately and Hayes turned to her.

His eyes went bloodshot as he stared at her with so much anger running through his veins.

"You!! I fucking only asked you to do one thing, take good care of them! How dare you!!!?" He yelled at her and she shivered.

"I.. I didn't do anything." Her lips quiver in fear, voice shaky.

"l Swear to god if anything happens to Nathan, I'll break you into pieces!" He thundered, rushing out of the room with his son.

"We hate you!" Liam snapped at her, he gave her a funny look before running after them.

"What have I done to deserve this?!"

She ran after them till they got outside. Hayes dropped the unconscious Nathan inside the car already and made to turn to the other door to drive when he saw her standing there.

"I dare you open this door and I'll blind your eyes" He threatened angrily and Tessa swallowed.

"I'm his Nanny, at least let me know how he is doing pls" Tessa replied, she touched the car door and made to go in.

Hayes swiftly pulled off one of his shoes and stoned it at her, hitting her on the forehead, closer to her eyes.

"O my god!!" She shouted multiple times
