Play your cards right

Kylie walked out of the elevator with a bag in her hands, yawning she walked at a steady pace towards her apartment...typing in the passcode to her apart her gaze flicked toward the flat opposite hers and she sighed.

She had not seen him for two weeks now after that incident, she wondered if he moved out or did she accidentally kill him that night....shaking her head she returned her attention to her apartment and step in, locking the door behind her.

She looked at how messy her apartment was and sighed in defeat, for weeks now Julie had been staying and kept messing up her space without cleaning....kicking her way through the dirt on the floor she walked into her room the only neat place left in the house and fell straight on the bed.

She was so tired!!!

After taking a shower, she didn't feel like eating anything anymore after drowning two bowls of ice cream.....when she was done putting on her clothes, she heard the ring sound from the door and walked out toward the door....opening the door, she could not find anyone but drifting her eyes to the floor she saw a basket closed and tired with a ribbon.

Picking up the basket, she walked into her flat...this had been the norm for almost a week and a half now...she received a basket every day of weird things which were her favorite though, like chocolate, milk, spicy chicken pork ordered from her favorite restaurant and most of the ice cream.

Opening the basket, she wondered what was in it today...she was surprised to see a mini white teddy bear and a box of French fries, cuddling the warm teddy she smiled in satisfaction and hugged it to sleep after munching on the French fries.

After Kylie had Picked up the basket and walked back inside, the person who was hiding in the shadows walked out...his face was covered with a mask and he was putting on an all-black from his head to his toe, he smiled through the mask and walked into the elevator.

Smith Mansion📌📌📌

Nathan walked into the mansion with exactly a second left to complete thirty minutes, he pushed the door open before the head maid could and strode inside the living room with a gloomy gaze, he wondered why that old man had called him.

Getting to the living room, he couldn't find anyone..and that's when the head maid walked to him and said

" they are in the dining room young master" the maid mumbled bowing her and walking after Nathan who was striding toward the dining room.

Hannah who was busy eating with an unsatisfied expression on her face, smiled when she saw her son...walking up to him she held onto him and started talking

" Nathan my dear, welcome home darling how have you been?? " Hannah asked holding tightly to her son's hand.

" Am fine mom and you? " Nathan asked with a dotting expression on his face looking at his mother, only three people could make him smile one was his mother, the other his sister, and the last was his wife.

" I'm fine Nathan, come on...come and eat, " Hannah said as she dragged him towards the dining table.

Nathan nodded his head in acknowledgment of his grandfather and his father andesites mom...dinner was filled with a lot of chatter between his siblings who couldn't stop teasing each other.

After dinner, Nathan and his grandpa went up to his study room....he poured out tea for his grandpa from the kettle and handed it to his grandpa which his grandpa accepted with a satisfied smile, pouring it out for himself...he dropped the kettle and took a sip of his tea.

Daniel looked at his grandson with a smile on his face and muttered " you are wondering why I called you right?? " and Nathan nodded.

" Well tomorrow is Old Man Ross's wife's birthday and I was invited, so I want you to tag along with me," Daniel said and took a sip from his wine, looking at the confused expression on Nathan's face...Daniel sighed and muttered

" Remember, the old man whose granddaughter you are busy trying to get married to....it's her grandma's birthday tomorrow and you are coming along with me "

Nathan gazed at his grandpa and nodded his head in understanding, " when did you start monitoring all my moves " he asked eyeing his grandpa

" After the night at the club, I guess, " Daniel said with a shrug of his shoulders... " if you want to get married to her, make it snappy before some other man proposes to her " he added with a generous smile.

" No man will ever dare convert what's mine, never " Nathan muttered clenching his fist.

" Well, remember to play your cards right then," Daniel said without a care in the world and dropped his cup....standing up, and walking out of the study " also remember to prepare a suitable gift " he added before leaving.

" play my cards right, what the hell does he mean by that " Nathan wondered as he stood up on his feet and also walked out of the study room.

He couldn't comprehend what his grandpa said to him, he can't simply understand what the hell that old man was trying to say.

Nathan climbed down the stairs, walking toward the door when his mother called out to him...

" Yes mom "

" can't you stay the night it's already late as it is, please, " Hannah said with a pleading gaze looking at her son.

" But mom, you know I can't," Nathan said with an expressionless gaze.

" Please just stay for the night, " Hannah said with pouting lips and a pleading gaze.

Nathan sighed looking at his wristwatch, it was past 10 pm anyway and he couldn't see her anymore....so he could stay only for today...nodding his head at his mom, he climbed up the stairs with his mom.
