Miss Secretary takes charge

Chapter 60

Recap

     Once they reached the office, Ben handed him a hamper with a wedding invitation. Henry's friend, Nolan' wedding was happening in the Europe. Though he was happy for him, he did not like the idea of leaving Julie for three days straight.

"Are you upset about something Mr. Kingston?" Ben asked him.
"Kind of, I would like to take Julie with me, but they are all my friends, she may feel left out and cant be comfortable among strangers. I also doubt if she would like to come for someone's wedding whom she did not know"
Right then Julie entered his office.
"Re-schedule all my meetings for the next three days to the upcoming week"
"Okay sir, but why? She asked.
He gestured her towards the invitation hamper.
"Wow, looks so beautiful, when are we leaving?"
Henry's eyes widened in surprise and he looked at Ben with a happy smile.

   Realisation hit Julie, so she turned around and asked,
"Unless it's an official tour, on what grounds will I come with you?"
More than a question to Henry she asked herself.
"I have an official work in Sicily, so we will combine the both"
"Okay sir" Julie could not contain the excitement in her.
"Finish of the works quickly, arrange someone to cover you up in your absence. We are leaving in an hour"
Julie rushed out since she had only limited time.

     "Do you really have any business in Sicily Mr Kingston?" Ben asked.
"Not yet, but will arrange soon" he winked with a coy smile.

     At times like this, Ben would go back in time when he was working in Kingston Manor, Ms Elena Kingston and little Henry would visit Sr Kingston every weekend. Henry would be running everywhere, playing, making noise and be naughty around his mom. After her demise, Henry's personality had completely changed, he had become so quiet and kept everything to himself. The harsh reality of life had taken away the child in him. After all these years, it was Julie, who brought the glimpses of little naughty Henry back.

     Ben was happy that Henry had finally decided to stop by and live the life, which he had forbidden himself from, as if he was not deserved to, as if he was destined to suffer.

     Ben looked at him fondly,
"Happiness suits you, Henry. Enjoy the little moments in life" he patted his shoulder and left. Whenever people around him call him 'Henry' he knew that he was still that small boy in their heart.

     Henry and Julie headed towards her apartment to get her passport. The stylist who got Julie ready for the convention centre Project proposal when Henry was sick, was waiting with a two brand-new huge travel suitcases in her apartment complex.
"Hello Harriet, accompany Julie to pack her essentials"
"Sure Mr Kingston"
Julie looked at the big luggage while walking past them,
"Whose bags are those?" She asked Harriet.
"Yours, Ms Rozana" Julie' eyes grown big in shock.
"Mine????"
"Yes, all that you have shopped this morning, I have added few and organised them with required undergarments, accessories and footwear to go with it"
"You make me feel like Kate Middleton going on a Royal Tour"
"Perhaps, everyone is a princess in their own way Ms Rozana" she remarked.

     They reached her apartment, Julie got her passport at once and filled up the handbag with all her essentials.

     "Exploring a new country with Henry excited Julie so much. Her energy was bubbling and evident, so Henry could not stop himself from asking,
"What is with all the smile and energy?"
"Because I am going to fly with The Henry Kingston on his private jet, what more can I ask for?" She said in awe looking at the warm and luxurious interior of the jet.
