The Unexpected Guest

Raymond's car stopped at Mikaela's house, and she wanted to get down but he heard her hand. "Give this to the little twins." He passed a bag to her.

"Give this to the little twins." He passed a bag to her, his eyes narrowing slightly as he watched her reaction.

"Thank you." She took it and came down, feeling a sense of unease as she wondered what was in the bag.

The maids were applying cream to Rose's wound, though Madison was more injured Rose was also a little injured.

"Ouch, don't you know it hurts you can do it more gently?" The maid blew on the cut while applying the ointment, making Rose wince in pain.

Just then, Raymond's expression darkened as he watched the maid's gentle touch.

"Is she doing it right?" he asked abruptly, his voice low and menacing.

The maid nodded hastily, her hands shaking slightly as she continued to apply the cream.

He was holding two packs of food. "Brother," I'm hungry she said, and he dismissed the maid.

"Here I got you food and snacks."

She took the bag and brought out the food, "It's really delicious, how do you know I wanted a delicious meal and even snacks?" She loaded them into her mouth.

"Eat slowly…" he grumbled.

She was still eating when Jason came in.

"My nutty little girl went to fight, who do you think you are Jackie Chan?" Jason said as he walked to them.

"Brother Jason, that f**king b*tch started it I dealt with her a lot too."

Rose would have regretted it if she had let Madison go.

"Language Teddy bear," Raymond said and Jason laughed.

"But you got wounded, Rosy." Jason joined her on the couch and wanted to join her for dinner.

"Brother J, instead of dragging my food with me why don't you go get yourself a girlfriend, you too brother." She put her food on her lap and turned away from Jason.

"I am not ready to have another bee on my neck." Rose frowned when he said that.

"I don't get what you mean by another bee…, who is the first bee?" She knew who he was referring to.

"My sweet Rosy is not a bee how can I say such a thing?" He changed his mind immediately.

"Better." Raymond watched them, he was happy she was not still sad.

Mikaela was pasting around the office, She wondered how she would manage to fulfill the promise she made to Olivia.

"Olive you are putting me in a tight spot..." She said to herself, her anxiety growing as she thought about the dinner invitation.

She turned around and saw Jason walking past the hallway, her heart skipping a beat as their eyes met briefly. She ran to him, trying to compose herself.

"Mr Evans, I heard you came to my house last two nights." She didn't know how to start the conversation, her voice barely above a whisper.

"I came to check if you and Mr Williams are okay." He wanted to continue walking, but she stopped him.

"Hmm.... can you come over for dinner at my place tonight?" She hoped he wouldn't refuse.

"And why would you invite him over to your house?" Raymond asked as he walked to them with his hands in his pockets.

"And why would the boss poke his nose in other people's business?" He turned to Mikaela. "I would be there by that time?" He asked.

"By 8 pm." He nodded.

"Sure I would be there." He pulled Raymond alone before he could say anything else.

By 7:30 Mikaela and Olivia were done preparing dinner They had made a lot, they made spicy chicken, Mac and cheese cake, pepper sauce, and much more.

"Isn't this too much for just one person?" Adrian asked, eyeing the spread of food on the table. Olivia smiled knowingly, making sure everything was perfect.

"At least we get to eat delicious food like the uncle boss boyfriend bought for us last night." Adriana's eyes lit up.

"You're always a foodie, Olivia!" Olivia chuckled. "Hey, someone's got to appreciate the finer things in life."

As they worked, the aroma of spicy chicken and mac and cheese filled the air, making their stomachs growl in anticipation.

"I hope Jason likes it," Olivia said, her brow furrowed with concern.

Adriana reassured her. "I'm sure he'll love it. You're an amazing cook, Liv."

Olivia spent the whole afternoon cleaning the entire house, since Mikaela informed her that Jason agreed to come.

They were done setting the table when the doorbell rang...

"I will get that." Mikaela went to the door, her heart racing with anticipation. As she opened the door, she was taken aback by Jason's presence, and the fact that Raymond was with him only added to her unease.

Jason saw she was looking shocked.

"He wanted to tag along right Raymond," Jason said, his eyes glinting with amusement.

"You were the one who asked me to come with you." Raymond lied, his expression innocent, but Mikaela sensed a hint of tension between them.

"Come in sir." She opened the door and shut it behind them.
