Today Evei is leaving for Paris, unfortunately work duties called and she had to walk the runway at Ritz Paris Hotel as a Victoria Angel. Navia had already left Saturday night to continue her final year at Brown University where she is studying Marine Biology.
Eve and I had met all of Micah girlfriends and out of all the females he had dated Navia was our favourite and Evei had suggested that the next time she visits we would go on a girls trip to Bahamas.
"Are you sure you'll be alright?" Evei says squeezing ketchup on Zendra fries.
The blue eyes four year old had arrived early Saturday morning and so far she's been nothing but an Angel. Her waist length hair was comb into two ponytails thanks to Eve.
We were having lunch at Sweet tooth diner. Where almost everything served here had a little bit of sweetness, their naturally made sauces, chicken, pastries and even the vegetable salads.
This restaurant was one of the best here but I would not recommend it to someone with diabetes. Currently we are seated on the patio of the restaurant close to the palm trees. The environment was calming and peaceful.
"I'll be just fine. I have this little one to keep my company."
Evei took a sip of her cucumber water before looking at Zendra who was hurrying to eat her fries so that she can have as piece of my bread pudding that have also become her favourite.
"You'll take care of your aunt for me right?"
Zendra look at me then at Evei, "Aunty E, is everything alright? Daddy is also sad and says mommy's on a time out."
Evei look taken back by her question, "Yes sweetie its just that-" She pause looking at me for help.
"Your mom is planning a surprise for you and your dad is sad because he didn't think of it first." Was all I could come up with.
Although her fifth birthday is still a couple of months away. I'll have to let Alaric know that we told Zen about receiving a surprise from her mother before the actually date.
I can't help thinking about what Bridget did. Did she not think of how her actions would affect her own child. She keeps underestimating Zendra, she just can't seem to understand that Zen is smart for her age and she tends to be quite the little observer. Not only that but she asks a lot of questions.
I only wished that her mother had considered her once before she did what she did.

Heather Lambert was my secretary. She was nothing like my past secretaries who practically walk in the office nude and flaunt themselves. I hired Miss Lambert two years ago when she graduated from highschool. She had been interviewed for the position of a receptionist but despite being a highschool graduate her qualifications were impeccable therefore I gave her the position of secretary.
The other reason why I hired this young woman was because she is humble. The clothes she wore was always far too big for her size and looked like they were passed down from her thirteen century ancestors. She had untamed brunette hair and wore a wide frame spectacle that was too big for her face therefore she would not cause any distractions are trouble like my past secretaries.
Currently I was wondering what was the matter with her. She was standing in my office playing with her fingers and opening her mouth as if she was gasping for breath are like she had seen a ghost.
"What's the matter Miss Lambert?" I place the pen I was using to sign some documents on my desk before giving her my attention.
"Sir- you have a visitor."
I was puzzled. Why would she look this nervous to tell me about some visitor. "Is it Mr Baxter, did something go wrong with his shipment? Is he not satisfied with the 2020 Anton G4R?"
The 2020 Anton G4R was our latest model car. I spent a year designing it and it is suppose to be launch next year but Mr Baxter, an important client had managed to persuade me in selling him the very first car.
"Of Course not Sir, he loves it-" She pause once more.
I was finding this irritating we both had work to do and here she was wasting my time by refusing to get to the point.
"Miss Lambert you are aware that I only see visitors who have an appointment are if I inform you about one of my lady friends that's going to stop by. Now if you can't tell me who the person is just dismiss them and get back to work."
"She says I should tell you her name is Fellatio Champ." She rushed out.
I begin to choke on my saliva when her words finally registered in my head.
"Sir? Sir I'm so sorry its just that she- I, I'm so sorry." She rush over my desk to knock me on the back.
How dear she come here and use that name, this woman had some serious problem. "It's fine Miss Lambert, I'm fine."
She step away from me and I straighten myself in my chair. "Tell her you're sorry but I won't be able to speak to her because I am in a very important meeting."
Miss Lambert nods before saying, "Sir what if she doesn't leave."
"Then get security to throw her out."
Miss Lambert looks more relax as she leaves the office.
Jasmine was like a plague and to make matters worst mother still like her and expect us to get back together and there was no way I'm doing that.
I need a break.
I look down on the wireless phone on my desk. Mateo had went back to New York along with Bentley and Leo is in Malibu for a week with his girlfriend. Mandy wasn't in the picture either since I had my driver drop her at the airport this morning to catch her flight to London. There was no one to distract me, are to go out so we can have a good time.
As I reach for the phone it starts ringing. "Is the situation taken care of Miss Lambert?"
"She caused a chaos, said she wasn't leaving until she sees you but two of the securities managed to remove her from the building."
"Good but make sure she leaves the premises and cancel my meeting for four o'clock with Miss Ophelia Quinn, tell her that I will make it up to her. I'll be leaving early today."
"Okay sir."
I knew it wasn't right to just drop everything and run from my problems but this business could do just fine without me being here everyday besides I need inspiration in order for business to continue being a success.
