One Hundred and Eighteen - Missing Files!

"You're such a f****** loser, even your own husband didn't want you in his business, sticky fingers" The slut mocked Mel, as I walked in to see Gerard in the middle of the slut and Mel, refereeing their brawl.

"Mel" I called to get her attention, "you already won, forget her" i winked, "we'll return another day" I said, watching Gerard pull a angry Mel backwards.

With a gym bag, on my shoulder and two pair of shoes in my hand, which Amelia was quick to question me about.

"What you you have there?" she asks, coming towards me while nanny Pierce, jaws started clenching nervously.

Frowning at her, "what?" I asked, with a smirk.

Pointing to the gym bag in my hand, "there" Amelia tried to take the bag and I quickly nod to Gerard who was instantly beside me.

Glancing around the apartment from where I stood, "I'm sorry" I look at a nervous nanny Pierce, "whose apartment is this again?" even though I addressed nanny Pierce, I gave Amelia a smug look.

The apartment was silent, I went to hug nanny Pierce, "I'll see you tomorrow" I promise, sliding the key into her hand and she smiles, nodding.

"Ladies" I smiled, faking a confidence, I didn't feel, "take care," I turned to hustle out, because I don't want her to question me about the contents of my gym bag.

"Hey" I spun around hearing Gerard's exclamation, wondering who he was talking to, only to seen his hands on Mel's shoulder, tugging her backwards.

Chuckling, "oh, I guess you haven't heard what your lover, Gomez did to your boyfriend" Mel laughs dryly, as the slut's eyes widen in surprise. Allowing Gerard to pull her out, Mel giggles, walking out, sending a wink my way.

I did not expect her to find out this way! Darn you Mel! "sorry" I wave, following Gerard and Mel out the front door.

I was just anxious to leave with my bag of files nanny Pierce allowed me to have. My main concern now, how would Amelia react to the missing files from my doctor.

Sitting silently in the back seat of Gerard's vehicle. I opened my phone and started composing a legal letter, to my therapist, in forming her, that if my medical files are released to anyone without my consent she will be sued. I also informed her, that from today onwards, she's prohibited from discussing me with anyone!

Pressing send, I await the email to highlight send, before closing my phone and turning to a nervous Mel.

Realizing that she finally had my attention, "I'm so sorry for losing it. back there" Mel apologises.

Shrugging, I met Gerard's smirk in the rearview mirror.

"Well just her expression alone was satisfying to behold" I chuckle. "Now, I hope Adian or Basil isn't upset" I responded.

Crossing her fingers, "let's keep our fingers cross" Mel sighs.

"Let's" I agreed as Gerard pulls into the underground carpark, parking alongside Adian's SUV.

When Gerard turns off the engine, the three of us eyed each other before exiting the vehicle, Mel taking the grocery bags and me with my gym bag, handbag and shoe in hand.

Mel was definitely nervous because of her confrontation with the slut but the slut had it coming, as far as I am concern. The only thing I'm weary about, is Adian's reaction, if this information wasn't made public yet!.

The ride up the elevator was a quiet one only the irritating tapping sound of Mel's shoe can be heard.

The three of us walked into the quiet empty kitchen.

Placing the bags on the counter, Mel waked off to the room she shares with Basil.

I opened a bag on the counter, double checking it, before turning to Gerard. "This is yours" I smile "and thank you for today." I tell him.

Taking the bag from me, "thank you and, I guess tomorrow, it's on to another adventure." he chuckles, waving, he walks out the front door.

I followed him, securing the door and punching in the alarm before returning to the empty kitchen.

My thoughts on nanny Pierce, I decided to call her.

Nanny: "Hailey, I was just speaking about you" she started, confusing me. "I had some files locked away in my room, do you have any idea where it went?" he asked.

Frowning, what's going on?

Unsure of how she expected me to respond, "I have to go. I'll call you tomorrow" I said avoiding the conversation.

Maybe it's Amelia! Maybe she's upset about the missing files.

"God please protect nanny Pierce" I whispered softly.

I took the bag and went to a room downstairs that is meant to be a servants quarters and locking the door, I opened the bags and pulled out the files.

There were thick files from Dr. Jenkins office over the years.

There were other files, with newspaper clippings but with little time, I secures the gym bag in a closet and left the room, to see the kitchen is still empty.

After the day we have hard, I wonder what kind mood Adian is in.

I sat at the kitchen counter, why do I encounter problems everyday? Is this what being and adult is all about?

I have so much to tell Adian, especially about the good news Carol Barnsfield gave me.

Excited, I hop of the stool smiling, ready to meet Adian, running out of the kitchen, bumping straight into him. My smile disappearing at his stone cold expression.

What the hell did I do now?

Smiling, "hey" I greeted Adian, unable to hide my surprise of suddenly bumping into him. I stood looking up at him, clad in a black jeans and a black T-shirt, with a black sports jacket in his hand.

Frowning, I stared at him, "uh, you're going out?" I observed, hoping I'm wrong, but I'm not.

Ignoring me, he walks towards the key rack on the wall and takes down a set of keys.
