Chapter 142: Chapter 142

"What!what did you do?"Leo exclaimed in pure disbelief as soon as he walked out of the mansion and found Cassy. The woman he hired as his personal assistant since he had so much to manage and couldn't do them all

"Well...it's still fine...look, ''she said nervously, showing me the half-dead car. She destroyed his beloved love. His Rolls Royce he loved among his cars and now she was talking as if it was nothing

"Are you fucking insane...I gave it to you to get something done but...you little"he was furious as he said shooting daggers at the woman who was so careless and deserved to rot in jail for damage

"Come on Leo...it's just a little mud...I can wash it off and the car will be nice and new" she remarked throwing her hands in the air as if what she was saying made sense to her ears

"You are impossible!"Leo yelled out of frustration and ran his hands in his hair. She was the worst assistant ever and now he was beginning to have second thoughts

"That's it...you are fired" he finally decided and Cassy widened her eyes in shock. She was enjoying her new job because her boss was a total dickhead

"No...no you can't fire me okay," she said shaking her head and rushing to Leo

"Let go of me you sick woman"he shouted trying to shrug her off of him but cassy was gripping hissmallr so tight that they both ended up struggling to keep each other off although cassy was pleading

"You can't fire me...I'm good with this"it was too soon to be fired Hy the hot model and she wasn't ready to loose all the privileges he gave her

"Oh yeah...then…"leo was about to say when they heard a loud scream

"What was that?"Cassy asked as she stopped struggling and looked around and Leo too had heard the voice loud and clear

"It came from the...oh damn it"he cursed as he shoved Casey away wio ended up falling down on her butt and cried out as she gathered herself up and ran after him. It was Vivienne's voice they heard hence they hurried to the garden hoping nothing happened

***

(Vivienne)

A few seconds ago everything was working just fine and in a flash I was doomed

"Ahh!"I couldn't help but scream when I reached for my face and the musk thing was stuck. I tried to peel it off but it was hurting so much that I rose from the chair nearly falling and tried to peel it off again. I was doomed because now my skin was burning to the point where I felt like I was going to die

"Vi...what the heck...oh"I heard Leo's voice and since I couldn't open my eyes I turned around blindly

"Help me...it's stuck"I cried out desperately and felt a hand on my shoulders and Leo turned me around. I guess I was facing the wrong way

"What have you done huh... what the heck is this," he said surprised too but I didn't want him to question me but to help me get rid of the thing hurting my face

"Help me...it's stuck, "I said fanning myself with my hand because my skin felt like it was being stung by a thousand bees

"Hey...stop it!"

"Cassy...Casey help me this"I heard Cassy and she seemed to have pushed Leo away because I could feel her touching my face and I was about to die from the pain

"Damn it...why did you use huh...and what's up with your hair"she said and tapped around the sides of my face as if looking for a way to to peel the thing off me

"Ouch!"I screamed when she tried to peel it and she stopped right away

"I used what you gave me, unfortunately something went wrong...can I open my eyes? ''I was desperate to see what was wrong. What I did wrong and what fate my hair was in

"Yes sweetie open your eyes"Cassy said as she dragged me away and I felt leo take my other hand

"Stop rushing her... careful sweetie"Leo said as he slipped his arm around my back and guided me down the stairs. I tried to open my eyes but I was scared to do so and once I did. I stopped walking and shrugged leo and Cassy away from me

"Tell me does it look bad?"I asked, touching the bird nest which was now my hair. I was devastated knowing while trying to do something I ruined it and saw the expressions on leo and Cassy. I knew I looked like a grim reaper

"Well...I mean...you look cute"leo said hesitantly and reached for my hair but he didn't even touch it when he withdrew his hand and scratched the back of his neck awkwardly

"Stop it Leo...come baby I'll fix this"Cassy said, shooting an angry dagger at leo and grabbing my hand. I was nervous knowing I wasn't going to be perfect for the party. My hair was already a mess and my face

"Come on..let's"Cassy started once we reached the entrance of the mansion but stopped when we saw the tall handsome man dressed in a charcoal gray suit walk out busy wearing a gold wristwatch and my heart skipped a bit as my hands immediately went up to my face hiding myself and I turned away from Victor

"What's going on?"I heard Victor ask more calmly and I was dying for the ground to open up and swallow me whole. I thought he left but what was he doing here

"Good morning sir...well...she"Cassy greeted Victor and I could tell she was nervous. Of course anyone got nervous whenever Victor was around and I was even more because I hated for him to see my ugly face and the bird's nest I called hair

"She did something and now...she looks like this"like a fool Leo betrayed me and forcefully turned me around to Victor and I was even more embarrassed that all I wanted was to kick him somewhere where it would hurt deeply that this had already happened

"Huh?" it was Victor who said more like a whisper and throwing all my pride aside I removed my hands from my face knowing he would laugh at me

"I see" he murmured when I lifted my lashes to look at him. He had a serious expression on his face

"Then get her cleaned, "Victor said, keeping his gaze on me and I was stunned he didn't laugh. At least he should laugh so I could feel better but his intense eyes made me lower my head out of shame

"Come on…"Cassy pulled me inside and I stumbled and followed her. Leo didn't come with me and I was happy

"Who told you to use that...now be still, "Cassy said as she tried to detangle my hair but it was all tangled up. I couldn't get it to fall down and that was a disaster

"It's hurting okay…just let it be, "I said, reaching for my head. Whatever she was doing was hurting and I didn't like it. She said if I lowered myself into a hot tub I'd be okay but so far I was naked in a hot tub and nothing was happening

"This is impossible...I need to get my gadgets but they are at my apartment" she said with heavy breaths and stepped away from the tub. I was irritated knowing I ruined my face and hair and I deserve to suffer

"I'll go get it...I'm sure it won't take long" she said and before I could protest she was out of the bathroom. I stayed there with my head lowered. Doing everything I could to free my hair but I was hopeless. If I continued to pull my hair then I was likely to suffer breakages hence I reached for my face and felt the pink musk and it was stuck in me. This was where I had to cry because I wasn't going to get rid of it

"I'm so stupid...so stupid," I said banging my head on the edge of the tub but even so the pain wasn't the same as the one I was going through. What sort of bad hair day was this "there's no saving me"I said with an exhale and lowered my head in the water blowing bubbles like a kid when I felt someone's presence behind. I grew alert and straightened but I didn't think much knowing it was Cassy but she came back so fast or did she find a way out of my predicament

"Did you find something...Cassy, it's okay if this can't be fixed...let's face it...I'm not going to that party tonight" I said and lifted my leg slightly out of the water and slammed it back. Water splashed on the floor and I didn't mind. Cassy didn't answer but I felt she was pouring something into my hair and whatever it was. Was soothing my scalp

"What did you get huh..."  I  said and slid down the tub, and leaned my head back. My eyes closed when I felt her fingers massaging me to my scalp. I never knew Cassy was so good with massaging. Her hands were so soft and long that I could feel my hair getting loose and I was happy as I stayed there

"You know what...I wanted to look beautiful...I don't know if I'm beautiful enough but for him...I just wanted to be the only one he looks at," I said and poured some water on myself blindly. I didn't dare open my eyes as I felt her work down the back of my neck

"But I'm being ridiculous right...he probably won't even see me... anyways what the heck... I'll just stay at home" I added knowing my wish or whatever thoughts I had were just a dream. That doctor would be there, she was pretty and I knew Victor liked being around her. It was strange how Cassy wasn't saying anything. I wanted to look at her but I chose to let her work. She was helping me hence interrupting her would be a bad idea

"Hey, can you fix my face as well...I look like a witch" I said, feeling my face. If my hair nightmare was getting fixed then she could as well as fix my face although I was scared to see the outcome

"Sure...what else"instead of Cassy's melodious soft pleasant voice. A deep husky male voice spoke which was fruity and pleasant to the ears and I froze instantly. My what raced knowing full well who that voice belonged to and immediately I moved forward placed my hand over my chest and

"You?"I exclaimed when my eyes met with Victor standing behind me. This meant it was Victor all along. But how come

"Should we move to fixing your face, Ms. Payton?" he asked with a straight face and I consciously shook my head not wanting him to be there while I was completely nude. Wasn't he ashamed of himself? What was wrong with this guy

"No...please leave"I muttered hoping he could see the situation I was in. He didn't have to come into my bathroom in the name of helping me but he didn't look like he wanted to leave either, but he leaned closer to my face and whispered in a deep masculine voice that numbed all senses in my body as my jaw dropped

"I thought you wanted to please someone...shall we get to work. maybe I can show you...what he likes"to my surprise the man who only spoke a few words said so much that I wished for him to disappear. Not just him but me as well. This was embarrassing on all levels. I was doomed to see the grin tugging at the corners of Victor's cute lips as he looked at me shamelessly.
