Chapter 20: Lost.

Stacey.

    It took all the will power in me not to kiss him last night, just what was wrong with me? I wondered as I sat in my car, flushed and disheartened.

There was no changing his mind, he had already determined what to do in his mind, all I could do was sit and watch as what I had built crumbles like a sand house.

" Mom, are you alright? " I heard Edna ask.

The fact that she had no idea what was going on yet made me delighted, as I knew she would blame herself, like I currently did.

"Yeah, I am alright, " I smiled.

"But you look tired and you have bags under your eyes and you have been coming home late and tired, you don't sleep at night either, is something wrong at the company? Or are you sick? " she questioned.

I sometimes hated the fact that she was smarter than most kid her age, as she got to notice what they wouldn't notice and she never hesitated to question me on it.

I shook my head, "no baby, Mom is alright, I am just tired, but I will be fine, I have just been busy that's it, "

"Are... You sure? " she queried, raising a brow.

"Hm hm, thank you, " I said, kissing her forehead, " if you have any problem at school or if anyone says a rumor about you, don't hesitate to leave the place and your teacher call me so I can deal with it with the kids parents, don't try to deal with it yourself, worthless people are not worth your time, okay? "

" yes Mum, " she nodded, smiling.

"That's my girl, now hurry up before the gate is closed, "

She nodded, alighting the car, it was my first time her dropping her at school in three months now.

"Have fun, " I added.

"Yes Mom, bye" She waved at me then headed to the gate.

I watched her till she reached the gate of her school, hoping she didn't have a tough day at school as I would at the office.

I closed my eyes and leaned back against the car seat, upon thinking of the words I was about yo convey to my workers, an headache had built up in my head.

Mia would be angered once she finds out, which was why I sent her to China in the disguise of having an event I must attend there.

I would be done before she realized what I had done.

Letting in a deep breath, I opened my eyes and turned on the ignition of my car, hopeless and in tears.

No matter how hard it tried suppressing it, hatred burned in me for Mr Arman, I knew I was being a selfish bitch with that thought,  yet I still couldn't help it.

He was after all the reason for my headache and stress.

Arriving at my company, I pulled over by the driveway and alighted from my car, for a few seconds there, I stared at the tall building standing before me, something I had never done since I acquired the building.
