Destined To Be

Chapter 26

Harry's POV

"Aditi, I've done a background check on her, personally." I sigh as I look at Aditi.

"Harry, that's not the point. The point is that I can't leave her alone." She whines as she stomps her leg.

"Why?" I ask her as I hold her shoulders, making her look at me.

"I...She..." She's at a loss for words as she stutters and looks at me, hoping I'll understand what she's trying to tell me.

"Babe, she'll be safe. I promise. We'll be gone for hours and I need you to be there. If Rose comes, she'll distract you and you won't be able to concentrate. Plus it'll be really tiring for her." I explain gently.

"Fine." She huffs as she crosses her arms at her chest, "Then I will be needing full access to the security cameras, the numbers of all the security guards and the number and complete details of the new nanny." She demands.

"I'll give you everything you need." I smile as she finally agrees, "Rose will be safe, don't worry."

"How many days is the shoot for?" She questions.

"Just three days." I reply with a shrug.

I stand off the couch, and walk towards the kitchen counter where I had left the contract papers on. I grab the three stapled sheet and the blue pen.

"You'll have to sign this." I say as I walk back over and sit back down next to her.

She takes the paper from my hands and reads through the contract. Her eyebrows farrowing as she flips the pages.

"Woah...Harry, this is too much. $500 per hour to choreograph a song?" She asks incredulously.

"It's not that much. It's a standard choreographer fee." I shrug.

"So how many hours am I working?" She asks.

"Well, we'll be there for three days. The shoot will go on for 8 to 10 hours." I explain.

"Wait...so I'll be making $4,500 per day. That's too much!" She says with a surprise.

"Well, the director requested for you personally." I say proudly.

But she narrows her eyes at me, "Did the director request or did you?"

I bite the inside of my cheeks to stop myself from smiling. Of course I recommended the director, Ben Winston, who also happens to be a dear friend of mine. He was looking for someone new and didn't have time for auditions, so I naturally recommended Aditi's name.

"He did." I lie, and she just nods her head.

"When are we leaving?" She asks as she puts the paper on the table and starts signing the sheets.

"Tonight." I say, bracing myself.

"Tonight!" She exclaims as she jumps up in her place, "Tonight? And you tell me now?!" She looks at me with disappointing.

"Well, Ben and I spoke about it just today morning." I shrug.

Aditi shakes her head and massages her temples, "What time is the flight?"

"At 10." I reply.

"Okay, so we leave two hours before, at 8. It's 4 now." She mumbles, clearly looking stressed, "What time is the new nanny coming?"

"Maybe by 6." I say and she nods her head.

"I should get the packing done, before the nanny comes so then I can interview her." She says in a very bossy tone.
