Waking up in Jerry's house was amazing. Last night ended very well and I was so happy. I just laid in bed dreamily thinking about all Jerry said last night... he even mentioned that he wanted to marry me! I had never thought of that before till now.
*knock knock*
"Who's there?" I was brought back from my little daydream by the door sound. Shortly after Hannah's little head popped out through the door.
"Princess? Come on in." I said and sat up
"I wanted to know if you were up, besides I wanted to ask if u could take me to school today? Daddy is already rushing me whenever he takes me." She said and jumped on my bed beside me. She was already dressed up in her little uniform and a flower headband fixed firmly on her crown.
"Sure! Lemme go freshen up." I said and quickly made my way to the bathroom to brush and bath.
*********
"What's going on?!" Jerry asked noticing me walking out holding Hannah's hand.
"She's taking me to school." Hannah chorused with a smile as I smiled back.
"So you don't want me to take you?" Jerry asked again this time with a little smug look on his face. He pretended to be hurt and made me want to giggle a bit.
"No! You always drive like you want to get us killed." Hannah yelled with a laugh shortly after.
For someone this young, she had a really matured way of speaking.
"So keys?" I asked stretching my hands out to him. He looked at me and grumbling reached into his pocket murmuring some words I couldn't quite deduce. He brought out a bunch and tossed one to me.
"That's the keys to the Mercedes. Drive my baby carefully unless you'll be sleeping back in the hospital tonight." He joked and I couldn't hold back the laughter as I hit him playfully and walked out with Hannah beside me.
"See you later ode." I said and this time I had no regret of my last word... he was an "ode" my "ode "
"Meet me at the office once you're done. Work starts immediately." He ordered fixing his gaze on me like he did when I still worked for him.
"You're not my boss... yet." I laughed and got into the car with Hannah before driving off.
I dropped Hannah off at school with most of her school teachers asking if I was her step mom or something... I personally did not like the word step mom so I just told them to address me as her aunty for now. I wasn't planning on rushing anything.
I drove to Jerry's company and most of the staff were very surprised to see me again. I made my way to the elevator and went up to Jerry's office.
I tried checking Tolu in his little office but he was nowhere there in fact the room was sorta empty like he had moved or something.
"Oh you're finally here!" Jerry calls out from my back as I turn to look at him. He was dressed differently from back at home.
"Where's Tolu? Don't tell me you fired him!" I asked as I followed behind him to his office.
"Fired him?" He asked rhetorically... "I promoted him to your office." He said and faked a laugh to me.
"So if he's working where I worked, where do you now expect me to work?" I was a little bit confused since there was not really much I could do besides accounting and calculations.
"You're no longer gonna be my assistant." He made a dramatic stop and raised a brow jokingly.. I couldn't really understand what he was trying to do or say but I was really in no mood for jokes.
"Guy talk! Don't be playing jokes with me." One thing I hated was games and all... I could be really impatient at times.
"God you have to ruin everything fun. Ode." Did he just call me "ode "? I let out a huge laugh... he didn't even get the right pronunciation of it.
"You're now be business partner! I thought about it last night, it wouldn't be nice if my girlfriend was my assistant so Yh we'll work side by side. Look around the office, it's now our office."
I looked around the office carefully and noticed it now had two desk set up beside each other and my name tag was on top of the other desk with the name "Director" of the company on it.
"Oh my. But hold up, what of your dad? What did he say?" I asked because I knew his dad wasn't entirely fond of me.
"Don't worry about that old man. I've bought part of his shares so I currently own 60% of the company shares while the board owns 20% he only has 20% now." He said and walked closer to me. "So, do you like it?"
I thought about it not knowing what to say... of course I loved it.. I just never felt it could be possible, me a director of a company this successful.
"Of course I love it!" I said and jumped to hug him as he took a quick spin before dropping me back to the ground.
"Hello sir." Someone called out as I turn to see who it was. Omg it was Tolu and damn he was looking better than I remembered.
"Tolu! Wow you look amazing."
"Thelma!" He exclaimed but quickly stopped as he took a quick glance at Jerry. "I mean Ma."
I let out a huge laugh. "Ma? Come on don't call me that. Call me Thelma. Don't let this little bully scare you." I said and hit Jerry gently as he scorned at me.
"I have the company records here with me." Tolu said and passes the files to Jerry as he made a last wave to me and excused himself leaving I and Jerry alone.
"So wanna start work... partner?" Jerry said and made a little wink.
"Of course... partner." I said as we both let out a laugh and made our way to our seats to begin working on the advancement of the company.
