Chapter 85: Chapter 85

(Vivienne)

"Sweetie...you need to take care of yourself."I stood there as I watched Leo and Kyan do all sorts of things to me. Already they asked me if I was feeling any pains or if I needed anything

"Take this...if you feel awful just drink this"Kyan shoved a bottle in my hand and I shifted my eyes to it and there was clear liquid.

"What's this?"I asked, showing him the bottle and Kyan smiled as he draped his arm on my shoulder and blinked cutely at me. I moved away shrugging him off and he stumbled back and ended up laughing

"It's water okay...what do you think it is," he said still laughing and I nearly slapped him hard but my hand was suspended midair when I glanced up and saw Victor descending the stairs. I was mesmerized by how he was looking. In a million years I didn't know of any man who would pull off any black outfit as Victor did. He was exceptionally good looking and the way he was fighting to wear his watch without looking where he was going made him appear extra hot. we were twinning since I was wearing black as well

I giggled mentally as he reached down but headed straight to the living room. I didn't stop looking at him until he disappeared and when I turned my attention back to Kyan and Leo. I found d the staring at me with confused expressions

"What?"I asked with a frown as I lowered to pick up the phone I kept down and Leo glanced at Kyan and both stared at each other then back to me

"Nothing...I guess I should come with you" Leo said with chuckles, winked at me playfully, and walked away heading to the living room. I was stunned and confused not understanding the meaning behind the little wink and the sarcastic chuckle. I turned to Kyan and he was grinning like some cat

"Kyan...what's going on?"I asked with a deadly expression but he was backing away still smiling like a kid. I didn't like the give of their smile hence I lunged at him but he ran away and like a fool I ran after him towards the living room

"Stop chasing me!"Kyan kept on shouting but I was already in pursuit and before he could touch me, I came to a sudden halt realizing that a pregnant lady was not supposed to be acting like some teenager.

"Excuse me," I said with a low bow and retreated away from there "phew," I said as I wiped my forehead even when there was no sweat. Victor was scary, his gaze, his presence made my knees weak sometimes but I couldn't help it. He was just perfect and mysterious

"And why are you running around huh"it was Monica who I met on my way to my bedroom and like an innocent girl I stopped and smiled

"Hey Monica...so very soon Vic and I will be going...hope you miss me," I said, still smiling at her and skipping away from there. I left her standing there knowing she was fuming in anger. I smiled as I looked around for Tiny. With so much happening around I didn't even find time to play with him

"Hey boy...where are you?"I wasn't going to leave without him, I was taking him with me. Leo told me Victor was going on a business trip. He had some conference to attend. I failed to understand why I had to come with him. I was just his Surrogate. I asked Leo if Beverley was coming as well but I was told Victor was taking Jason instead

"Come here sweetie," I said with giggles when I entered Victor's room and found the lazy puppy snuggling in his bed. It was so small and adorable that I jumped on the bed startling it as it shifted away from me scared but once it opened its small brown eyes. I guessed it recognized me

"Here, here...see how you are all better, "I said as I cradled it in my arms and played with its ears. It made cute sounds and licked my hand. I giggled as I moved it uplifting it in the air so it could stretch its small body and it did

"You are so adorable...I love you so much. '' I said with cheers and snuggled it to my chest, its fur was so silky and smooth and fluffy. It smelled so delightful like some bath soap and different fragrances I saw Julia bathing it with

"Come let's go...it's time," I said as I dragged my body off the bed and just as I was about to set my feet down. The bedroom door opened and Julia peeked in. I nearly jumped up thinking it was Victor but I exhaled in relief seeing Julia

"Sir is already in the car...he's waiting for you," she said with a smile and I rose to my feet and held the puppy in my arms, and walked to the door

"I'm taking him"I simply said kissing its ears and Julia seemed surprised

"Umm...sir...are you sure?" she asked nervously and I understood her because Victor was a grumpy man. If I was going with him then I had to bring my little companion with me. He was cute hence I nodded at her as we walked back to the stairs

I didn't know what to wear but Monica was going about wearing something elegant. She even went as far as packing the clothes I was supposed to take saying my dressing mattered especially if I was to appear in public with him

"You look pretty madam...I love your jumpsuit"Julia complimented me for the hundredth time since I wore the black jumpsuit. I was a little uncomfortable because it was more of an off-shoulder one, it was a little loose to the lower part which made it more comfortable. I decided to let my hair down just as Monica had said. Leo and Kyan couldn't stop clicking pics like I was some celebrity

"Bye baby…we'll miss you" it was Leo and Kyan who hugged me Immediately I reached downstairs

"Come on guys... Victor will get upset"I whined pushing them off me. It was enough hugging for one day. It wasn't like I was leaving the country when we were just going to Oxford just close to London

"Fine but call me every night...and remember to trouble my brother"kyan added as he let go of me

"Yes princess...he's a lot grumpy but I'm…"

"Enough okay...now bye boys" I cut Leo off, not sure why they were going to put some ideas in my head. I held the puppy carefully and walked towards the door with Julia and two other female servants following. It was in the evening but soon night would engulf the sky hence I sighed as I walked to the car parked by the entrance to the mansion. I didn't even know what to do but when the driver saw me. He opened the door to the backseat and I smiled at him and walked as fast as I could

Every time I had to ride at the back seat with Victor and now I reached the open door and peeked inside only to see Victor already seated to the left side busy on his phone like most times

'grumpy man'

I said mentally and carefully put the puppy in first, he felt our presence, and like so Greek god he glanced at me and I felt nervous, not sure if he would allow me to take his little puppy

"Sir...he's going to be lonely...I'm sure he would like to leave the house and see new places" I said immediately I settled down and the door closed. He didn't say anything but looked at the puppy snuggling in my arms then shifted his eyes back to his phone

Of course, he was so grumpy and thinking about it. I didn't know what would happen where we were going. I just hoped I got some privacy even if he left me alone I was fine.

The car started moving, I relaxed and played with the puppy while stealing glances at Victor. I wondered what he did on his phone, did he play games, and looked at business stuff. I wanted to know what he thought about everything.

Did he ever get bored, seeing he was already a boring man? I shook my head getting rid of bad thoughts knowing I had to do something about Victor. At least he needed to learn to have fun since we were going away from home. I guess I could use my situation to make him leave his comfort zone and try something new

"Sir...have you ever tasted food in the streets?"I blurted out the question not sure if he would answer and to my surprise, he did without even looking at me

"No" he simply said and I frowned.

"Why?"I asked, sounding a little irritated with his reply. I knew he was born with a silver spoon but even in college, didn't he ever hang out with people who were not on the same level as him

"Unhealthy" he replied and my eyes widened in shock. He was so rude that I had to teach him a lesson

"But the food tastes nice... especially because you don't have to eat it with fancy forks or knives"I lashed out, turning to face him. The driver did his job as he drove the car carefully when I turned to deal with the grumpy man

"Ms. Payton, are you planning on feeding my child unhealthy food," he asked in a serious tone as he turned to look at me. I was not happy and he saw how angry my facial expression was. Even my breathing was not a happy one

"It's healthy and I want that... the baby and I want some of that spicy street food... it's delicious" I whined and I saw how his eyes widened for a while but soon maintained his aura as if he wasn't affected by my outburst

"Ms. Payton I can hire as many chefs from all over the world to make your food but...no street foods... certainly not healthy" he simply said and turned back to his phone. I wanted to smack his head to loosen up and live a little.

It was fun walking in the streets without bodyguards and without wearing some fancy suits. it was fun getting soaked in the rain and playing in the snow with the person you cared about, eating cone ice cream and taking a walk at the park.

I wondered if he did that, ever

"We'll see about that" I muttered to myself and sat back in the original position crossing my arms over my chest angrily and shifted my eyes to the window. I'd teach him to have fun the Vivienne way.

Just like that, we reached where his private jet was, I didn't know we were taking his jet. I didn't even know he had one which was silly of me.
