His Crazy Maid

Chapter 35 Face behind the mask



Then, he slowly placed his hand on the mask and before he could open it, someone barged in.

“The hell, what are you trying to do?. Disclose your identity to a mere stupid girl?. Seriously!, the boss must not hear of this.”the guy that came in said.

“Rico…”the mask man tried to call.

“Oi!, take her outta this place!”the Rico guy said and two men came in and went to Annie.

One grabbing her left arm and another grabbing the right.

The pulled her up.

Annie scoffed.

What’s going on?.

She glanced back at the man with mask.

He relaxed back on his chair and crossed his arms over his chest.

Woah!.

“You bimbo!”Annie yelled angrily.

“Stupid, Bimbo aren’t men!. That just makes you a Bimbo!”

And they took her out.

**

Annie barged inside the house angrily and went to her room.

She slumped on her bed and ruffled her hair.

Geez.

~Next morning~

Annie entered Boyd’s office with a frown on her face.

She greeted him between gritted teeth and Boyd raised his brows.

“How now, sweet potato?”he asked.

Annie frown deepened the more.

“Will you like me to read your schedule to you?”she asked.

Boyd stood up and walked to her.

“Did someone hurt you?, tell me, who is it?. I will have my bouncers go there and trash him up.”

Annie sighed softly.

“Nothing…. really.”she said and softened her look.

Boyd gazed at her.

“I don’t trust you. I will make my findings.”he replied and went back to seat down.

“One of our shareholders invited me to his party this night and I want you to be my escort.”Boyd started.

“Sorry, I don’t have time.”

Now, it was Boyd’s turn to frown.

“Sorry?, I am your boss and anything I tell you is final. Quit that cold attitude you putting on!. It spoils your sweet face.”

“But..”

“No, little Ann. Don’t you trust me?. Tell me anything if at all you have anything to say.”

Annie shook her head.

“Nope. Okay. I will go to the party with you.

**

“Alright, I understand.. but, isn’t this a little bit too tight?, it brings out all my shapes and I hate that.. beside, it’s such a skimpy one, I really hate it.”Annie complained to Boyd after wearing the red dress he got for her.

“I don’t think so.”Boyd pressed his lips together.

Annie scoffed.

“No, I certainly can’t wear this…”Annie shook her head.

“But, please, the party might have started already and getting another dress will cost some time, won’t it?. Mr Brown wouldn’t like it at all if we get there late.”Boyd pleaded.

Annie sighed softly and brushed her hair back.

“Fine… ugggg, I feel so uncomfortable already!”

“Sorry, burger, please manage.”Boyd said.

“Alright, let’s go.”Annie replied.

They both walked out of the company.

**

The mask man looked out at them from the black car and slowly, he balled his hand into a fist.

“Okay, I promise, I will really tell the boss if you keep doing this. What you did last night was outrageous, thank God Cindy informed me right on time. You can’t fall in love. I mean, you aren’t in love, are you?. It weakens, dummy!.”Rico expounded.

“A little respect, Rico. I’m still your boss even if the seniority is not that much.”

Came the thick reply of the man in mask.

Rico scoffed and threw his face away.

The man glanced at both Annie and Boyd as they both walked towards Boyd’s car and looked away.

“And, fall in love, you say?. Fall in love my foot!”

He groped the engine and drove away.

..~~..

A loud music was coming out from the hall.

“And just what I hate the most, music!.”Boyd said.

Annie turned to look at him.

“Who in the world hate music?”Annie scoffed.

“Well, in the world exist me that hate it.”Boyd rolled his eyes with a smile.

Annie also smiled and looked away.

They both entered the hall and Boyd suddenly took Annie’s right arm in his.

“What?”Annie scoffed.

“Get your….”

“Oh, if it isn’t the almighty man in town, Boyd Brick!”a man exclaimed as he walked over to them with a huge smile plastered on his face.

Boyd only offered a small smile.

“I’m surprised you really came. How have life been to you?”the man asked now standing in front of them.

“Well, just a little good. You?”

“If yours that’s making money every blessed minutes is little good then mine will be as bad as hell!.”the man joked.

Boyd laughed loudly.

“Come on, I’m sure it’s not that bad.”

The man smiled and turned to Annie and she gave him one of her fake smile.

“Good evening.”

“Evening, little cutie. Who is this young lady, Boyd?, your fianceè?”

“Huh?….. uhhhhh….”

“Nope!, sir. Certainly not!. I’m his P. A.”Annie spoke up.

Boyd turned to look at her.

There seems to be this glint of sadness in his eyes.

The man looked at how they had their arm in arm and looked up at them.

“You’re sure she’s just your P. A?”

Annie smiled nervously and quickly removed her hand from Larry’s

“But, anyway, I’m glad you’re good. I will see you around, Brick.”the man said and walked away.

Now, Boyd was literally cursing him in his mind

Annie stopped a roving waiter and took a glass of wine from the tray.

She sipped a little out of it and stared around.

“Now, I felt this is really where u should be… like, this place isn’t meant for someone like me.”

She said while looking at the other ladies looking all beautiful and exquisite.

“Why would you even think that?”Boyd hissed.

Annie faced him.

“You sound angry, what’s wrong?”

“Angry my foot!”Boyd rolled his eyes.

“Now, you really seem really angry.”Annie taunted.

Boyd took his face away and Annie went to stood before him.

“Tell me, Mr Boyd, are your really angry?”she asked and folded her arms.

Seeing her flushed red face but cute, Boyd didn’t know when he let’s out a smile.

Annie also smiled and patted his cheek.

Boyd felt his entire intestines went out of his stomach when she did that

He felt a rush of adrenaline and several butterflies were now flying in his stomach.

Her hand on his cheek felt so good

A murmur broke out from the people and their attention were centered in the door way.

Annie turned her gaze there also and saw #the five wealthy guys coming in.

The ones from the other night.

“Nay….. guess what, fellas?. It’s my lollipop, looking more lolly…”Parker said when he set his eyes on Annie.

“I will sure have a taste of this lolly one day… one day…”Keeton said between gritted teeth.

Alberto glanced at Keeton and scoffed.

“Stop it already. Must you have a taste of every girl?, when did you become girls taster?”

“My thoughts exactly!.”Carlton said.

“Don’t push it, Keeton. Boyd seems very much interested in her.”Herald said.

But Keeton only got more infuriated.

Annie turned away from the men and back to Boyd.

“I can’t stay out late. I’m getting out of here the next 20s.”

“Twenty minutes?. But we just came here..”

“I didn’t say you should follow me..”Annie replied and looked away.

Boyd stared at her and a small scoff escaped his lips.

Just what is this girl doing to him.

°•°

“So, I will like to call on the host of today’s party….”

“Alright. Time up. Gotta go, boss..”Annie said.

“They’re just calling on Mr Brown.. can’t you at least wait a little bit so I can drop you off at your house?”Boyd said.

Annie shook her head.

“Don’t worry.”Annie sighed.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Boydnnodded reluctantly.

“Should I escort you out?”

“No. I will be fine, really.”

He breathed out a sigh then nodded.

Annie walked out of the hall.

She saw a cab right away.

*

She alighted from the cab and settled the man and he drove away.

Annie walked to the gate but suddenly glanced beside her side and she saw a figure.

A familiar one!.

The shadow moved into the corner and Annie left the gate and started walking to the corner.

She got there and saw him walking away.

“Wait!”she said.

He stopped walking but didn’t turn to look at her.

“Do I know you?. Why did you keep appearing in front of me.”she asked.

And then, she heard a thick chuckle followed by…

“You really wish.”

Annie walked and stood ten inches away from him.

“I have a feeling i know you.”

“You bimbo, you’re just knowing that?”

He continued walking away.

“Stop!, please.”she pleaded.

He stopped walking and now, he turned around to face her.

“If you don’t tell me who you are, I will kill myself. Show your damn face to me!”

“You sure you won’t freak out if you see my ugly face?”

“I won’t!.”

“I promise.”she added with a light sob.

“On one condition tho.”

“What’s it, what’s the condition?”she asked impatiently.

“You must never tell a living of my existence else….”

“Else?”

“I punish you.”

“I will go with it!”Annie said without thinking.

“For you, bimbo.”he said with soft sjgh then pulled off the mask slowly from his face.
