The Cocky Mr.Xavier

Chapter four

Alexandria

I woke up with a throbbing headache. What the hell happened? The last thing I remember is being shoved off the curb and into traffic, I remeber a black bently and then......nothing. Did I get hit?

I blinked a few times and looked around. Heart monitor and the smell of cleaner, yes difinetly a hospital, so I must have been hit. Shit where's Delilah she was with me. No one was around so I started hitting the call button repetedly. I got up painful as it may be and changing to find her.

"Ma'am it's good to see you awake but you shouldn't be up yet that's probably quite painful."

My head shot up and I saw a middle aged man in a white lab coat. Ah a doctor. 

"Where's my daughter? Little girl, Blonde Hair, Brown eye?" I was starting to really freak out

"Don't worry Ms an older woman came by last night and picked her up. She said she was a neighbor and sometimes took care of her."

I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. At least she's safe.

"Was she okay? Did she gets hurt at all?"

"No ma'am but I suggest you sit down before you hurt yourself anymore."

I smiled a bit and sat down. I have no idea how I'm going to afford the medical bills for this. I can't hardly afford daily living expenses as it is let alone adding probably thousands of dollars of medical expenses. I need to get out of here as soon as possible. 

"So what's the verdict then? I'm able to walk and it doesn't seem like my arms are broken"

He chuckled "Just a some cracked ribs and a couple of cuts and bruises. You got lucky. What happened might I ask?"

"Nothing really, I think someone accidently pushed me, which made me loose my footing and fall of the curb into traffic. Is the person that was in the car okay? Did they get hurt?"

The man looked at me kind of funny then shook his head laughing to himself

"No ma'am their perfectly fine. Actually he's the one that brought your daughter here and stayed with her so child services wouldn't take her. He stayed until your neighbor came by."

Oh wow that was nice of him. Hopefully he doesn't sue me for damaging his car. Lord knows I can't afford that on top of medical expenses and everything else. 

"When am I able to leave?"

"You can leave now ma'am just let me check your eyes. You may have received a minor concussion and we want to make sure you're good to go."

After a quick check for that he said I was good to go and I was out in the lobby ready to leave. I went to the desk to see how bad the expenses were going to be.

"How much am I in for ma'am?" I asked nervously

"Oh there was a man who came in with you and your daughter, he paid for everything last night."

Wait, what? This guy did that too? Who the hell is this person.

"Do you by chance know who the man was?"

"Of course I do It was William Xavier." She started looking off into the distance with this fluttery look.

That name sounds familiar but I can't remeber exactly who it was. Either way I needed to find him and thank him, also hopefully talk him out of trying to perfue any legal action. I can't afford to pay him anything let alone even afford a lawyer.

        Walking out of the hospital I took a taxi back to the apartment and was greeted at Rose's door by Deli.

"Baby I'm so glad you're okay." I squeled huggin Delilah tightly. Putting her down I went and hugged Rose.

"Thank you so much for taking care of Deli. I'm so grateful to you"

"Dear you've taken care of me for three years now, the least I can do is take care of your daughter after you get hit by a car."

I laughed sitting down on the couch next to Rose with Deli on my lap.

"Do you know the man who hit me paid for my hospital bills? I can't believe it, I've got to find him and thank him. I just hope he doesn't plan on sueing me for damages to his car."

Rose just shook her head and laughed. "Mr.Xavier I doubt would sue you and he's got money to spare, he probably didn't even batt and eyelash when paying your hospital fees."

I looked at her shocked. "Wait you know who Mr.Xavier is too?"

"Of course dear, who doesn't"

I blushed and mumbled a quiet "I don't"

"What? How do you not know who William Xavier is? He's probably the richest man under fifty in New York. Actually probably one of the richest in the nation. He owns probably half of New York and numerous companies across the globe."

I sucked in a breath, no way. I did not just get hit and damage the car of a man who is that powerful. Shit, Shit, Shit. Now I'm really hoping he doesn't try to sue me for damages. He'd probably laugh at a years worth of paycheck for me.

I looked down embarassed. "Think some homemade treats and an apology would help?"

She just looked at me shaking her head.

"Sweetie you're a curious one I'll give you that. I'm sure he'll love some treats, who wouldn't"

        For the next few days we made so many treats I probably smelled like a sweets shop. My the time we were done we had a medium size bad of rock candy, a cake beautifully decorated, some cupcakes, Some cinnamon muffins, iced crossaints and some chocolate and peanut butter brownies. The sweets basket was complete and about the size of me. I could hardly carry it but I managed. Frank was nice enough to give me the week off to recover. Today's wensday so tomorrow is thursday and I'll take the treats to his office. I looked up his address and know exactly where it is. His office is only about half a block away from my work. Rose agreed to watch Deli tomorrow so I'll have time to apolgize to him for everything and thank him for paying my hospital bills. Hopefully i'll be able to talk him out of taking legal action against me.
