Authoress’ pov ?
Statham enterprise….
Claudia stares at her wristwatch for the hundredth time, her eyes drift off to the wall clock in her office.
A frown appear on her face as she realizes her wristwatch is correct.
“It’s past 10, why isn’t Nicklaus here yet?” She asked herself.
Claudia has been waiting for Nicklaus’s arrival, since it’s not in his nature to be late.
She got up and head out of her office, she heads towards the elevator.. steps in and push the first floor’s button.
After a few minutes, she arrives, the doors open and she step out.
“Miss Claudia, a Chinese man is looking for Mr Statham!” A male employee said.
He was on his way to Claudia’s office, but thankfully meets her here.
“A Chinese man?” Claudia wonders.
The employee nods his head. “His name is Mr Brett Yu Hakusho!”
This name doesn’t ring a bell in Claudia’s head, she knows the Chinese man that does business with them… no, he proposed business with them.
“Take me to him!”
“This way, please!”
He leads her towards the lobby, truly Claudia meets a guy sitting on a chair in the lobby.
“Miss Claudia, this is the Chinese man… Mr Yu!”
The Chinese man gets up and shakes hands with Claudia, he stares in her eyes and spoke only three words.
“He sent me!” He said.
She instantly understand what he meant, she turns to the male employee with a smile.
“You can go, I’ll take it from here!” She said.
He nods and leaves immediately, Claudia withdraws her hand and sits down.. Mr Yu also sits down.
“I don’t want to beat around the corner, why did he send you here?” She asked.
“To make your job easier for ya!”
“To make my job easier? How?”
He smirks and shrugs his shoulders.
“I don’t know…what I know is, he wants you to help me get a place in this company!”
“I can’t help you get a place, there are no openings now!”
Mr Yu gets up as his phone rings loudly in his pocket, he reaches for it and receives the call.
“Hello?”
“I told you not to spend too much time there! Don’t make people suspect your meeting!”
“Yes, sir!” He said and hangs up.
He shoves his phone back in his pocket and turns away from Claudia.
“I don’t wanna waste any time here, he said you should make it happen at all cause!”
“Does this mean our meeting today is cancelled?”
“I don’t know!” Mr Yu said and heads towards the exit.
Claudia glares at his head as he walks away, she knows it’s a very difficult job for her.. Nicklaus wouldn’t accept Mr Yu since they’re not recruiting workers now.

Statham’s Villa….
The main doors burst open and closes in a very loud bang, making Mrs Statham jump slightly on her chair.
She lifts her eyes and sees Rhoda storming in angrily.. her eyes puffy and red as if she’s been crying.
“Goodness, Rhoda, what happened?” She asked.
She drops the magazine she was reading and rushed towards her daughter.
Rhoda didn’t reply, she ignores her and rushes to her room.. closing the door in another loud bang.
“What happened to her?” Mrs Statham asked herself.
She hears Rhoda’s cries from inside in her room, she wanted to go knock and ask her what happened.
But she knows it’s just gonna be a waste of time, Rhoda won’t say a word unless she’s ready to.
“Rhoda, you can talk to me about it, you know?” She said from the living room.
Hoping Rhoda would open her doors for her, just as she had predicted.. Rhoda pushed the doors open.
Without wasting time, she rushed towards Rhoda’s room.. she sits on Rhoda’s bed.
Rhoda rest her head on her mother’s lap and cried all she wanted.. to her heart content!
“You’re lucky Bill has gone to school.. he would’ve laughed at you for crying so much!” Mrs Statham said.
Rhoda cries more when she hears her mother mention Bill.
“Mom, he’s back.. he wants to take Bill away.. he…”
She couldn’t complete her words, tears swallows them.
Mrs Statham frowns in confusion, she doesn’t seem to understand what Rhoda is talking about.
“Who wants to take Bill away?”
“His..his.. I can’t tell you!”
Mrs Statham didn’t ask any further, she simply let Rhoda continue crying.

Anastasia’s pov ?
After we left the hospital, Klaus didn’t utter any word to me..
Even when I tried to start a conversation, he simply turned away from me and look out the window.
So, the ride home was long and silent!
Finally, we’re home, he heads upstairs angrily.. he ignored Jerry who was asking what he’ll prepare for breakfast.
“Don’t cook, Jerry, I want to take him somewhere!” I told Jerry.
He nods, I head upstairs to meet Klaus before he does something stupid.
I open the door and step into our room, Klaus is sitting on a sofa in front of the TV in our room.
In fact, it’s the same sofa where I did a lap dance for him.. seeing him sitting on the sofa made my mind race back.
*Anastasia! Your man is angry, stay focus!* I scold myself mentally.
Shaking that thought off my head, I take slow steps towards him.. his eyes watching my every move.
“Klaus, are you angry?” I asked the most stupidest question ever.
He glares at me.
“You tell me!” He replies lowly.
I chuckle and stop in front of him, I sit on his laps.. putting my legs on both sides..
“I’m sorry, I just didn’t want you to fight with him…”
“I didn’t wanna fight with him, I wanted to beat him up!” He corrects me.
I rolled my eyes, his ego is too big…
But with the way he came at doctor Hemsworth, I believe he would’ve beat him up.. since he won’t give doctor Hemsworth any chance to fight back!
“Klaus, I know Rhoda is your sister and you want to uphold justice for her…”
He scoffs and look away from me, I grab his face in my hands and turns his face back to me.
I make sure he stare in my eyes as I speak!
“… but this is between your sister and doctor Hemsworth, after all he doesn’t look like a player….”
“Are you trying to defend him?!” He narrows his eyes.
“No, no, I’m not but.. I saw the look in his eyes, he’s innocent of Rhoda’s accusation… ”
“So my sister is lying?!”
“I didn’t say that, I just…. ”
I cut myself off, if I continue to talk about this matter with him, we’ll just keep going in circles!
It’s better I change the topic.. after all, doctor Hemsworth isn’t here.. neither is Rhoda, it’s no use talking about it.
“Let’s forget about them, now take a deep breath my darling!” I told him.
He frowns at me, but before he could complain..I speak..
“I want to get the bath ready for you.. you should take a warm bath and rest…”
“I don’t want to rest, I want to make out!” He said bluntly.
He’s pouting like a spoiled baby right now, which makes him look so cute.
“We’ll have all the time to make out after you rest…”
My fingers traces the dark circles under his eyes.
“… look at all these dark circles under your eyes, they make you look ugly!”
He frowns and touches them.
“Really?”
“Yeah, which is why you must rest.. then when you wake up later, you can have me all to yourself.. you can do whatever you want to me!”
“I wanna spend today with you, I wanna have you wrap up in my arms!”
Hmm, I don’t wanna have sex with him today, I still slightly sore from last time.
“Well, I know of another way we can spend today together!”
“Other than making love, I’m not interested!”
Wait, I thought he’s allergic to women.. since when did he become a sx add.ict?
Or is Marcus the one teaching him?
“Freshen up, I wanna take you on a date!”
“You wanna take me on a date?” He asked.. sounding surprised.
“Yes!”
“I only know of men taking their women on dates.. I haven’t heard a woman taking her man on a date!” He said.
Really? I see a lot of people do it! Where did this guy come from, a cave?
Oh! I forgot! He’s kinda a caveman since he doesn’t associates much with women.
Rhoda’s words replays in my head *Help me cure Nicklaus.. help him get over his allergies of women!*
I wonder if he’ll become a cheating fiance when he’s cured.
“Anastasia Lopez!” He barks.
I flinches out of my train of thoughts, I give him a light chuckle.
“You spaced out!”
“Go get ready, I’m picking you up in 20!” I said.
He frowns.
“You’re picking me up?”
I rolled my eyeballs, can’t he tell I’m doing a roleplay?
“Guys say that to their dates, so, I’m saying it to you too!”
“But do you need to pick me up? Aren’t we in the same house?” He asked.
I scoffed and grab his hand, I pulled him up with all my might and push him towards the bathroom.
“Go freshen up and stop asking too much questions!”
He stops right outside the door of the bathroom and turn to me with another frown.
“Can you at least tell me where we are going?”
I sighed..*Anastasia, don’t get angry! Don’t get angry!* I calm myself.
“I’m taking you to a five stars hotel” I said and push him into the bathroom and slam the door shut.
Phew! Klaus is so difficult to handle sometimes!

“Is this the five stars hotel?!” Klaus asked as he look around in disgust.
I smiled and nod my head.
“Yeah.. after you taste the food here, you’ll rate them five stars!”
