Dear Diary

Chapter 20 - Cooper

I just finalized a meeting with Anthony Lockwood and our big client. We both sit in Tony's office, shaping our latest program.

Tony pours 2 cups of his coffee from his overtly expensive coffee machine and puts one in front of me.

"Thanks." I take it and drink it. "This is good."

"Sumatra Gayo Coffee. I got it from Christian Hall. He went to Indonesia with his wife just because he wanted to spoil her." He chuckles.

I chuckle too. I know Christian Hall's wife is Tony's best friend. The power couple Hollywood is their status nowadays.

"You want some for your girlfriend's family. I heard George Sterling is a big fan of coffee."

"Oh, you have more?"

He nods. "I'll send it to you tomorrow so you can gain brownie point from Stasia's family."

I chuckle. "Thanks, Dad."

He laughs too. "Things going well with your daughter?"

I nod. "Good thing Jemima understands me well. She stops injecting negative thoughts to Billy after I threatened her about her lavish life."

Tony shakes his head. "Your ex-wife is really something."

"I know. She didn't even want to help anything about Billy at Charity's wedding next week. Not even a goddamn chat to the nanny. I was planning to fly Billy's nanny, the one we used whenever we both were busy, or when Jemima needs her so called me-time in the middle of the day. But because Jemima kept conveniently forgot to tell her, she has her plan on that day."

"Huh? So, no nanny for Billy?"

I shake my head and sigh. "Still trying to figure it out who will take care of Billy in the morning. I'm going to be very busy that day. So does Ana in the morning and afternoon. Charity's gown will be modified for the evening reception." Charity and I has no other family. Our parents both are only child.

Tony caresses his whisker. "She is trying to sabotage your time."

I roll my eyes. "You tell me."

"Let me ask Amy to call our nanny. We sometimes called her for help. She is a little bit old but a nice woman."

I shrug. "I don't mind. I just need her to help Billy with her dress. And to accompany her when I have my duty for the wedding. Ana will be busy too on that day with Charity."

Tony nods. "Yeah, she definitely can do that." He types something on his phone.

I sigh and save our details about the new program. "I'll send this to our programming team. They will come back to you next week since I won't be here the whole week."

"Sure. I'll see you in Maui then. Amy can't wait to have some fresh air, it's going to be Skylar first time to Maui too!"

"Oh Skylar is coming? I thought you asked your mom to take care of her."

He shrugs. "Amy said we can bring her. Breastfeeding and all."

I chuckle and nod. From the look, I think Tony also don't want to separate with baby Skylar. "I hope you guys will have lots of fun."

Tony's phone pings. "Amy will send the nanny's number to you. She is available." He grins.

"Thank God for Amy!"

I'm still in my office. I have to finish all my works for a week in 2 days before I fly to Maui. So it means, I have to stay late in the office and have my dinner here too.
