Chapter 8 First Day Isn't Going Well

  • "How dare you do such a cruel thing Ethan?" Catherine yelled barging into Ethan's living room even when the guards tried to stop her.
  • "The only cruel thing in this room is you. What the hell are you doing in my house and how dare you yell at me at my own house!" Ethan asked, equally pissed.
  • "How dare you try to employ a thief and a slut as my daughter's nanny!"
  • "Should that bother you? A slut gave birth to her remember" Ethan taunted.
  • Catherine swallowed hard, the words pricing through her heart.
  • "Oh please spare me that Ethan! No matter what might have happened between us, Arin is my daughter and I have every right to decide who will be in her life and who shouldn't! How can you pick up a random street girl you knew nothing about to be my daughter's Nanny.! What good morals will she teach and provide for her?"
  • "Perhaps if your mum had taught you morals,you won't have ended up in my brother's house" Ethan said, sipping his drink.
  • "Are you crazy?Don't drag my mum into this sh*t Ethan!" Catherine asked angrily.
  • "I'm not but i think you sound like the crazy one" Ethan said.
  • "Arinna is my daughter Ethan! I don't care what you think or say, I carried her in my womb and I did the pushing not you! I decide what happens in her life and as I said, that girl is not going to be my daughter's nanny! I'll employ the nanny myself and if you drag it with me I promise to take this to court" Catherine threatened and Ethan laughed loud.
  • "Court? Have you forgotten you lost the right over Arin six years ago. Do you even care about her? Remember you chose money and man over her in court. You chose $50.6 million dollars and my brother over your daughter Catherine are you even a mother? And you came here to drag having morals or not with me"Ethan said,still angered over the past incident.
  • Catherine swallowed hard again, glaring at Ethan. He looked so much better than he was five years ago before they both separated.
  • She won't deny the fact that she still loves him.
  • He keeps growing handsome each passing day.
  • She missed him and she suddenly feel like hugging him.
  • She missed his hug.
  • She missed being in his arms.
  • She missed having him rid her.
  • But she needed money, No one could have resisted.
  • "I'm ready if you want to take it to court but you know I'll always win ,you'll only stain your reputation" Ethan said.
  • "Ethan yo..." Catherine was saying.
  • "Leave my house this minute, i don't want to see you in my house except on your visitation days, which is only on Saturdays okay?" Ethan said clearly.
  • "Should i order my bodyguards to push you out the way you ordered your bodyguards to push me and your daughter out five years ago ?" Ethan asked.
  • Catherine took one last glance at him before slowly walking out of the house but Ethan stopped her.
  • "Do say hi to my brother,Morgan your husband".
  • Catherine rolled her eyes and walked out of the house.
  • _
  • "Dad" Arin called loudly from upstairs.
  • "Yes princess" Ethan replied quickly pouring the wine in his glass cup on the floor.
  • "What's with the shout? And why won't the maids let me out a minutes ago" She whined.
  • "I'm sorry, it was a maid who accidentally poured my wine off" Ethan said and sighed knowing Arin is coming to bombard him with questions.
  • Arin stared at her father suspectively but didn't say any more word.
  • **Next morning.
  • Irish was putting on a simple blue shirt tucked into a black pencil skirt, with blue flip flops, she had seen the outfit on her closet and loved it.
  • Her hair was packed in her favorite style, a simple ponytail with tendrils framing her face.
  • She had woke up with a start, Her boss Ethan as while as the maids hadn't disturbed her for once yesterday. And like Ethan had told her,
  • Her jobs starts today....
  • ___
  • Irish find her way down the stairs where she met Ethan and his daughter's gaze fixed on the wall clock.
  • "Good morning" She said about to bow but quickly got hold of her head.
  • "Dad! She's Here, Look who finally decided to climb down" Arin smiled, happily sliding her feet into her bunny footwear.
  • "Ohh ... Good morning" Ethan replied.
  • "We thought you left yesterday but Dad said you didn't, I wanted to come spend some time with you in your room before you can be my nanny, but Dad insist I let you be" Arin said, her tongue moving faster than people's of her age.
  • "Oh... I'm sorry about that, I just don't know what to be doing if I walk out of my room". Irish smiled.
  • "It's fine" Ethan said .
  • "Have you gone through my rules booklet? It wasn't really much right?" Arin blinked waiting eagerly for one word she wished to hear.
  • "Yes,I did. Yesterday night" Irish said.
  • "And?" She asked eagerly.
  • "Uhmmm, The rules are not hard and I think I can cope" Irish said..
  • "So does that make you now my Nanny? Officially?" Arin asked expectantly and Irish nodded.
  • "Yay!" Arin giggled and Irish smiled and didn't notice how Ethan's face had lightened up.
  • She really like the kid.
  • "Welcome to my world Irish" Arin said excitedly.
  • "Thank you" Irish smiled.
  • "So you're now officially My daughter's Nanny,what I'm about to say is already in Arin's booklet but I'll say it anyways ... You're not allowed to yell at her,hit her or make her cry. Once you do any of that,just know you're fired" Ethan said.
  • "I won't do that" Irish said.
  • "Okay. And please try as much as possible to keep to her rules, she doesn't like her rules being disregarded, You are also allowed to go on week breaks, like visit home" Ethan said.
  • "Okay" Irish said and forced her self not to wear a pale face about the last word "Visiting home" she wished she had a home to visit, oh yeah! She had a home... A home she can't Visit.
  • "And i don't think there'll be problem between you two, you seem to like each other already"Ethan said.
  • His daughter had never been this excited when a new nanny resumes, or is it because it's been long she had a nanny?
  • She had been talking about Irish since yesterday and kept insisting on going to her room, but Ethan doesn't want her to disturb Irish. She hadn't started the work yet so she should get some rest and time to decide if she can do it or not.
  • The lady is beautiful plus she dresses nicely and decently too and she speaks fluently.
  • "So, I'll be in my room now" Ethan said, picking his phone, he walked over to Arin and pecked her.
  • He got on his feet and was about heading to his room when one of his female workers walked in, stopping him.
  • "What?" Ethan asked.
  • "Mrs Catherine is here" The worker said.
  • "What the fvck! Tell the guards to fvcking throw her out this minute!" The tone of Ethan's voice suddenly changed from being calm to what Irish couldn't tell.
  • Irish blinked severally in confusion as how Ethan's voice can change in a sec, Irish bent to console Arin when she saw the little girl had started crying.
  • Ethan cursed at Catherine before walking out of the room, not sparing any gaze at Irish not Arin. His expression was ... Mvd!
  • Arin cry grew louder and the confused Irish bent over to console her. She remembered the first rule.
  • *Don't use swearing words on me*
  • Damn! Irish became more confused, Is she crying because her father used the swearing words near her? Or because of the name Catherine?
  • Arghhh! First day isn't going well*.
