Chapter 58

Christopher woke up the next morning with a slight headache and a bit weak, he felt something on his forehead, he place his hand on his hand and retrieved it, it was a towel

' a towel, what the hell was a towel doing on his forehead ' he tried to stand up but felt something on his chest, he looked and it was Jane's hand, ' what was she doing here ' he thought

she seems to have slept off she gently removed her hands and place them gently on the bed

he sat up and took note of his surrounding,he was still in his room, he saw a bowl of water on the drawer and one of Jane's hands was inside in the water holding a towel

does that mean he had a fever overnight and she had stayed up to take care of him? she was really something else

he touched his head but he wasn't having any temperature but he still felt headache and weak

he carried Jane and place her on the bed, he covered her with a blanket and thought she looked cute, he disposed the bowl and towel,he changed his pijamas into a casual jeans and t-shirt and made his way downstairs

when he got downstairs only his mother and father were there, they were having breakfast

as soon as Maria saw him she stopped eating her food and turned to him, "how are you feeling son, how is your hand?" she asked him immediately he sat down

"mom I'm fine, and my wound has been treated" he said and at the thought of Jane who dressed the wound he couldn't help but smile but he quickly masked the smile with his cold demeanor "and I had a fever overnight, but thank God you got me a good maid, she took care of me all night" Chris explained

"oh my son, thank goodness" she said "call Mike and have him prescribe some drugs for him" she said to one of the maids standing there

"or does he need to come have a look at you" she asked

"no mom, it's not that bad, let's not trouble the doctor for no reason, he can call me if he has any question" Chris replied his mother

"and speaking of that maid, isn't she supposed to be here right now" Maria complained, she has begin to feel some sort of uneasiness toward that maid since last night, she reminds her of someone

"mum she stayed up all night taking care of me, she also needs to rest" Chris interjected

"isn't that why she's here and besides she's been paid" Maria replied

seeing that his mother was unwilling to drop it, he decided to divert the topic

"does her father still work in the company" he said not looking up

seeing that his countenance has changed, Maria decided not to pursue the matter anymore

"yes" Williams replied

"I want him out by the time I refuse the office of the president which would have been today but because the damn bitch showed up in my party, that doesn't seem to be possible" Christopher said, he was obviously angry and all his efforts in trying to curb it was proving abortive, just remembering yesterday scene makes him want kill someone

"son, I know you and Angel had an ugly past but you have to please not take it out on her Father, he had nothing wrong, and he has been by my side all these years, please understand" Williams explained trying to make him see reason

"I don't care, if you want me to take over that company, I dont want to see his face or I might just kill him with my bare hands" Christopher growled and stormed upstairs

Christopher got to his room, he knows his father was right but he didn't care, he didn't want anything to remind him of that bitch

his eyes caught sight of Jane who was still sleeping peacefully and all the anger in him vanished, this girl has an effect on him that he can't explain, and he fucking loves it

he moved closer to her and used his fingers to caress her face, she was so fucking beautiful, he just damn wants to kiss her right now, he knew she would not be waking up anytime soon, so he went to the bathroom to take his bath

he came out of the bathroom and the sleeping beauty was still asleep, he dressed up, since he wasn't going anywhere today he decided to dress casual

he heard a knock on the door

"come in" he said

Estella came into the room with a tray in his hand, it contained food, water and some drugs

Estella was going to put the tray down when she saw Jane nestled comfortably on the bed, her eyes widened with shock, ' is this girl going nuts or something '

Chris read through her thoughts "it's okay Estella, I placed her there myself she dozed up taking care of me all night, I had a fever" he said

"oh I see, but may I say something?" Estella asked

"sure you can go ahead" Chris answered and placed his hand across his chest

"I understand that you have no ill intentions and neither does she, it's just keeps happening as a randomly but it's still not right, she's your maid, your parents must not fine out about this, your mother will literally freak out, I will advice we set up a room for her in our quarters and she can always retire there anytime she can't go home" Estella said

"I totally understand you, thanks, you can check for any available room but I would prefer if it's here in the main house, I want her close, I can need her at anytime" Chris said

"do you think your mother will agree?" Estella asked worriedly

"I will talk to her about it, don't worry" he said

"alright please eat your food and take your drugs, your mother said you didn't eat during breakfast" she said

"of course, I hope they will be food for her when she wakes up" he asked

"of course, I will leave now" she said

Christopher nodded and Estella left the room
