Chapter 7

Addy lives in a penthouse on the top floor of a twenty-story building with his own private elevator and parking garage. His house a three-bed apartment with a private swimming pool and gym. He moved out of his family house two years ago to one of his properties since his mother would not stop talking about him getting a girlfriend and settling down. And she is always trying to set him up on dates with some of her friends' daughters. He was getting frustrated when he finally made up his mind, he remembered his mother crying the day he moved out and insisted their house help, Aunty Flo, to follow him. she was also his nanny when he was a baby, so she knows everything he likes and doesn't like. Despite that, his mother still comes to his house to visit every week. Addy is not bothered about that since he is her only child.

Since the entire building was his, he gave Aunty Flo and the other maids including his driver the floor before his penthouse, with the access to enter his apartment anytime as long as they don't disturb him when he's working or sleeping.

The driver got to the build and the security guard let them through the gate

"Are you staying over?"

"No my fiancee is waiting for me, I told her I will be home tonight" Leo replied. Leo just got engaged to his three years long girlfriend last month, and they just started living together about a week ago. Leo was always staying over at Addy's place, cos it is easier to stay at his and it is closer to their office than his own house.

"I just think it is too late to be driving yourself, as your friend and boss I'm only concerned," Addy said

"Aww you know you can be cute sometimes, only if people can see this side of you," Leo said teasing him.

Addy gave him a look that made him zip his mouth and giggled.

As they got down the car, Leo walked to where he always parked his car and Addy was on his way to his elevator

"Hey Addy, I have a surprise for you later, I'm sure you would be glad," Leo said in a friendly tone

"Goodnight boss" he continued

Addy shook his head and wonder if his friend can ever behave normal, he nodded that he acknowledges Leo.

Leo got in his car and drove home.

As soon as Addy goes into his penthouse, he was straight to have a quick shower.

As he lay in bed, he couldn't help but think of Eva Williams. He thought 'Let me see if I can search her up' as he took his phone and began searching, he didn't find out much about her private life, everything he saw was related to her business, so he decides to sleep for the night and in the morning, he would ask Leo to do more research. If anyone could dig up someone's past he can definitely count on Leo, he is like a detective.

Meanwhile, when Leo got home, he found out his fiancee was fast asleep in their bedroom, he didn't want to wake her up with his small movements and decides to sleep in one of the guest's room. After he had his shower, he opened his laptop and began to collect information on Eva Williams's past, which includes her education status, her relationship with her parent, her relationship with her brother, her grandparents, and other members of the family. He got all his information with the help of his hacker friend Zee

"Thanks, man, really appreciate it, I've wired some money into your account" Leo thanked his friend over the phone

"No worries dude, let me know when you need my assistant, and thanks for the cash" Zee replied

As he ends the call he went through all the information he has gathered said

"who would have thought she had given birth with her stature, but dang she has gone through a lot in her little years, I wish her happiness in life"

As he was scrolling he found someone interesting associated with Miss Williams

'Oh wow, who would have thought I would be seeing you again very soon Lilian Warens'

Lilian, Eva's secretary was Leo's first love and ex-girlfriend, he cheated on her and left her in shambles, that was when he was a playboy but not anymore. He lost her contact after their breakup and he has always wanted to apologize for his behaviour and disrespect towards her, even though he has moved on he would still love to apologize hopefully she has forgiven him or will forgive him.

He organized all the files and decide to send it to Addy's email in the morning. After finishing everything, he went to the master room to join his partner in bed.
