Khan's POV

" Where the hell are you." Carter screams trough the phone.

"Relax I'm literally pulling​ up to the gate right now." I assure him while laughing at his frustration.

" Don't tell me to relax you're thirty minutes late Khan!" He says before hanging up in my ear. Well guess someones in a bad mode I think while looking​ around at the estate of my possible new home, so far I like what I'm seeing. It's about a 10 minute drive to the actual house from the gate which is a plus.

When we pull up to the house I take a second while Cedric comes around to open my door, to look at the perimeter of the estate at least what I can see from the front of the Mansion. When he opens the the door and I step out my eyes search around for Carter, when they finally land on him he has that same old smug expression on his face, which could only mean three things​ I'm about to be pissed off, annoyed, or surprised which immediately confuses me because 10 minutes ago he was just screaming and pissed off at me for being late, what is he up to now? I think as I walk up to him and our realtor.

"Glad you finally made it." Carter greets me sarcastically with a fake smile on his face, as he walks me towards three women with their back turned towards us

"Let me introduce you to our realtor Mrs. Taylor, her daughter MJ and her daughter's​ best friend Camilla."
He says with way to much excitement. I greet our realtor first then her daughter and then I turn to greet the last women and I swear my heart literally stopped when my eye land on Camilla, to say I'm surprised to see her again is and understatement, I've been keeping my distance from her since that night.

When I finally snap out if the little trance I was in I speak.

"Hello Camilla it's nice to see you again." I say uncomfortable with being in her presence after thinking about her every​ day since I seen her at my club a few days ago.

"You know him too Camilla?" The realtor asks disapprovingly. Immediately my eyes go to her in annoyance

" Yes Mrs. Taylor I met him the same time I met Mr. Brock." She responds clearly annoyed with her attitude as I am.

"Well I'm just surprised you remember them, that dinner you work at gets a lot of business you should stay focused on school and not grown men." She states in a snide tone further pissing me off and what is she talking about a dinner, I glance back at Camilla and based on her facial expression she wants me to play along with the lie so I decide to let it go.

"Mom that was very uncalled for." Her daughter gasps clearly embarrassed by her mother.

I can tell that Cam is uncomfortable so I jump in before the realtor says something to piss me off even more. "As fun as catching up has been I think it's time for you to do your job and show us the house." I instruct her in a final tone with no room for argument.

" Yes of course Mr. Khan." She says back to acting like the professional she should've been at the very beginning.

"This house better be fucking good for her sake because she is definitely pissing me the fuck off." I say after I step off to the side with Carter.

He laughs. " You just don't like the way she talked to Camilla.

" Whatever dumbass you won't think it's funny when I shot her in her fucking head for being disrespectful." I say even more livid then I was before because of the vulnerable look that appears on Camilla's face as she talks to that bitch.

"Khan calm down and think this through, how do you think Camilla would feel if you kill her best friend's​ mother in front of her" he tries to reason with me because he knows how unpredictable I could be sometimes.

"Relax I'm not stupid I wouldn't do that to Cam."

"Thank God." He says relieved

"Okay Gentleman let's take a look at your new home." She says after she finishes talking to the girls.

"Come on and make sure you at least try to keep your temper under control." He says attempting to chastise me like I'm a child

"Go eat a dick Carter, I'll do whatever the fuck I want to do." I tell him with hostility while walking towards the realtor at the front of the house. When we both reach the entrance she tells the girls to wait out side until she's finishes which vexes me, and just when I about to tell her off Carter intervene​s.

"It's fine with us if they​ tag along on the tour of the property instead of waiting​ out side." He responds trying to mediate the situation

"Thank you Mr. Brock for your consideration but they're fine with waiting outside​."

" We insist, it seems pointless to have them waiting outside in the heat when they can just accompany us." I say authoritatively

"Of course Mr. Ares."

"Well okay then​ ladies let's take a look inside." Carter says enthused

When we enter the Mansion my focus stays on Camilla the entire time while the realtor drones on about stuff like the mansion architecture and how floor to ceiling windows bring in a ton of natural lighting. Watching her take in her surroundings and the huge smile that appears on her face makes it hard for me to concentrate on what I'm actually here for. Once she's​ finished explaining the features and design of the foyer we move on the rest of the first floor then, the second and third floor.

Once we finish the tour I decide while her best friend is occupied with finding a restroom now is my perfect opportunity to talk to Camilla alone.

"I need you to distract our nosey realtor." I whisper in Carter's ear so only he can hear me

He laughs be for saying. "No problem." And walking away to wards them with me behind him and once he walks he away I approach Camilla.

"Hey can I talk to you for a second please." I say almost nervous about what I'll even say to her.

"Sure Mr Ares." She says while smiling up at me

"Please call me Khan, I was thinking​ maybe it would be a good idea to have a sit-down and talk to you about what happened with your previous manager and what could be done moving forward." I Say thinking​ of the first thing that came to mind.

"Okay, I work tomorrow I can come in a hour early so we can talk." She responds back nervously.

"Okay tomorrow it is." I say running out of things to talk about with her. She nods and turns to walk back to stand by Mrs Taylor.

"Oh one more thing what do you think about the house?" I inquire genuinely interested in her opinion

She turns back towards me with a shocked expression on her face.

"I think it's very nice and huge." She answers apprehensive

"Relax and just give me your honest opinion of the place ." I say trying to calm her nervousness

"I do think it's nice but all the windows kind of creep me out, if I lived here I would always be paranoid that someone was watching from outside." She answers honestly

"Thanks for giving me your opinion, and I definitely agree about the invasion of privacy in this place."

"Okay Gentleman so how do you like the house? Mrs Taylor says interrupting our conversation.

"I like it but the desicion is up to the boss man." Carter says smugly.

"I think you should keep looking this house isn't then one, the next let's avoid any thing with alot if windows." I state while heading to my car with everyone following behind

"Alright sir I'll get started right away on finding you another few options to take a look at." Mrs Taylor responds clearly frustrated with my decision.

"Okay ladies it was nice meeting you." Me and Carter say or goodbyes to them before heading to our own individual vehicles and pulling off in different directions to handle some last minute business.
