Chapter 61: Chapter 61

Triffany open her eyes when she felt a kiss on her forehead, she immediately closed it again cause of the bright light that came in through the window.

Carlos noticed the and put his hands up to shade the bright sunray. "You can open your eyes now darling." He said softly and she gently open her eyes.

She smiled when she saw his hands was still held up, shading the sunray, Carlos was being so sweet to her and it was very lovely.

"How was your night dear?" He asked her.

Triffany just look at him, he had made her tired yesterday, that she didn't realise when she fell asleep, and it was already morning now.

He smiled when she did not answer, he tilt his head to a side. "Is there something on my face?" He asked her seeing she was still staring at him.

With the sunray coming in through the window and on his face, Carlos was looking too handsome that she couldn't take her eyes off him.

How can he be this handsome? She kept asking herself. She.smiled and shook her head. "No." She responded.

"Then, why are you staring?" He asked, looking into her bright eyes.

Triffany looked away shy, she was not ready to tell him how handsome he looks. Immediately she saw the time she jerk up. "Oh no!"

Carlos sat up and looked at her. "What's wrong?"

"I am going to be late for work." She climb down from the bed and was about to hurry to the bathroom but Carlos was fast enough to catch her hands.

"Triff." He called out as she turned her face to him. "Today is for us."

Triffany look puzzled as she doesn't understand what he mean by that, Carlos knew that she was puzzled and then he continued.

"We aren't going to the company today." He told her and pulled her close to him, holding her around her waist.

"Carlos this is not a time to jock around. You're the boss in your company, but I still have to report to my new department." She reminded him, she.had just been transferred to his command still have a lot to do.

Carlos smile, and tuck the loose strand of her hair behind her ears. "May I remind you that you are my wife and also, you're going to work alongside me."

Triffany was more confused. "What do mean?" She blinks as she studied his eyes. "Work alongside you?"

Carlos nods and put her on his laps. "Yes. You are going to be my closest assistant." Tiffany raised her brow as he went on to explain. "You will always be by my side, go to any business trip with me too."

She could see the seriousness on his face. "Carlos, I don't think am cut off for that, I am just learning to be an editor and publisher...whereas I can't cover all those.."

Before she could finish Carlos shut her up with a kiss. "I will fill you in on that later, and whereas your job is not so difficult."

"Carlos I don't want that, I want to work in a department with others and gain more experience." Triffany said seriously.

"I am not stopping you from working and also I would love you to stay at home while I make the money for us, but I know you want to work that's why I want you to."

Triffany rolls her eyes and was about to say something else but he cuts her off. "Your desk is already being set inside my office." He told her and she furrow her brow.

This man was going to do all these things on his on without telling her, this was not what she want. "Carlos..."

"Don't protest Triff." He said softly. "I don't want us to argue." He exhaled softly. "Please, you will love it and also you will gain more experience working next to me." He said with a cunning smile on his lips.

"You're teasing me again." She said and pinched his arm softly.

Carlos put his head on her chest. "Let's not argue Triffany, I want to spend time with you today."

Triffany smile when he was not watching her, Carlos do act like a kid at times and she loves him this way. She have decided to let his domineering attitude go for now.

At second thought she smiled with an evil look on her face. "Carlos.." She called out and he looks up at her face and she grins.

"What?"

"If you want me to work by your side as you want then, there is a condition." She lifts the corner of her lips as Carlos sat up looking into her eyes and wondering what she was planning this time.

Tiffany smile, she won't let him have his way always, she raised her brow and bite down her lips and Carlos eyes darkened.

Carlos sat on the chair in his office staring at his phone with an unhappy gaze.

Triffany''s condition was that he go to the office today, while she have an alone time outing, since she will be watched by him from tomorrow.

He has decided to make her his closest assistant, this means staying in the office with him, going to business trips with him, charity and even having lunch with him. She loves it but also she would love a little freedom today.

Carlos had tried calling her but she was ignoring in his calls, and he couldn't concentrate in work. He doesn't know her whereabouts and she had refused to tell him.

Meanwhile Triffany was enjoying her favourite TV show at her cousins apartment, with a big bowl of popcorn and ice cream.

Nick just watched her with his hands on his chin. "Triffany seriously?" He said for the second time and Triffany looked at him.

"Yes, I have to have a little freedom before all the sticking together like a clue." Triffany told him with a smile.

Nick shook his head. "And this is what you call freedom? Watching some silly TV show.." Nick hates the TV show and would prefer to play game than it.

Triffany closed her eyes and exhaled softly. "And what is your definition of freedom." She looked at him. "Playing some silly game?"

"Don't call my games silly!" Nick said furiously.

"Then do the same. Don't call my favourite TV show silly!" She retort.

"Hey please, can you both not start again, you both are matured." Allison said as she joined Triffany on the sofa.

"Allison please tell Nick I don't have time for his childish bickering." Triffany told Allison.

"Allison please tell Triffany, that she is the childish one." Nick said.

"Allison please tell Nick that I am still his senior cousin and also married." Triffany said.

"Allison, please tell Triffany that one can still be married and act childish, and that I am older than her with a year." Nick said.

Allison who had heard enough raised her hands up. "Can you two please just stop!" She looked at the both of them.

They were both glaring at each other and Allison wonder if they were twin instead of cousins, or were they swore cousins. She snigger and they both look at her.

"What's funny?" Nick and Triffany asked her at a time.

Allison shook her head. "Nothing." She paused. "Why don't we all spend time our time outing?" Allison asked.

"That will be a good idea, but what happens when someone who attract troubles tag along?" Nick said while looking at Triffany, indirectly referring to her as trouble.

"Jeez! Nick will you just stop." Allison yell at him.

"Allison just ignore him, his attitude will never change, he always act like an assault that's why he have no lady as his girlfriend, I keep wondering who will date him." Triffany shook her head, feeling pity for him.

"Triffany watch what you say." Nick said furiously.

"Why?" Triffany folds her arm. "That's the truth, you act like an asshole."

Nick three a pillow at her and she did the same and soon they started a pillow fight and Allison had to step far away from them.

She watched them and couldn't believe her elder brother and elder cousin will still act like a kid.

She shook her head and left for the kitchen to prepare lunch, knowing that when they were done, they will reconcile and even play game together.

Carlos stood by the French window in his office, looking outside the busy street, he saw two couples holding their hands and walking together.

He sighed, he wanted to spend the whole day with Triffany, with her telling him all she want to do with a man she will marry, but she has suddenly left him alone.

He really needs to know his wife, he knew all this won't do, he had married Triffany without a proper date and it was time for him to make her happy and spoil her with his love.

He won't leave it to chance any more. He pressed the extension button and Felicity came inside.

"Felicity I need a full report on the construction site and also how Directors Vincent is coming up with the upcoming projects."

"Okay sir, I will get you the full details in two hours time." Felicity responded.

"Alright, tell Philip to see me in my office right now." Carlos told her and sat down on his desk as she left after giving him a little bow.

He flip through documents, going through them before he heard a knock on the office door and Philip stepped in.

"Sir, you sent for me." Philip said politely.

"Have a set." Carlos pointed at the chair and then joined Philip. "Give a full details on the project at Canada."

"Okay sir." Philip explained it to him, telling how good it had been going with the co operation with the Canadian investors and site managers.

"Alright." Carlos hands him a new file. "I want all these to be processed in two days time, and you should keep reporting to me daily."

"Okay sir." Philip said and stood up and left the office as Felicity came in with what Carlos requested.

Carlos went through it and put them down on his desk." What is my next schedule?"" Carlos asked her.

"None sir." Felicity responded. Carlos was not suppose to come to the office today, since there was no schedule, but he was forced to by Triffany.

You should go to the office today, alone, while I spend an alone time, and you don't have to call me.

That was what Triffany had told him, that was her condition.

Carlos closed his eyes gently, now just being away from her was like he had not seen her for eternity.

"Felicity, keep my schedule free for two weeks, also Triffany's." Carlos told her and she looked at him. "You may leave now."

"Okay sir." Felicity bow and left the office.

Carlos stood by the window again, it was past five, and yet he had not heard from Triffany and it bothers him.

He knew at the moment that he can no longer do this. He picked up his coat and left the office, got into the elevator and head straight to the parking lot.

He got into the car and Shanne Cole drove off.

Triffany was chatting with Nick and Allison when they head a knock on the door. "Nick are you expecting anyone?" Triffany asked him.

"No." Nick shook his head.

"I will get it." Allison stood up and head to the door. She shut it back immediately she opened it and ran to where Nick and Triffany was.

"Who was that?" Nick asked her.

"You won't believe who is out there." Allison said with excitement in her eyes.

"Allison, let the person in." Nick told her.

"It's Carlos Zack!" Allison said out loud and Triffany looked up surprised as she checked the time and then sighed.

Nick shook his head and went to get the door himself. He opened it and let Carlos in. "Welcome." Nick said stiffly.

Triffany snigger when she saw how Nick acted, jeez, Carlos really have a way of intimidating people, even the almighty Nick.

"Hi." Allison waved him with a goofy smile on her lips. Triffany shook her head, Allison must have been spelled by this man too.

This was the effect her husband have on people, he was so handsome, how can someone be this dazzling?

And he was wearing that well tailored navy blue suit that always makes him stands out.

She looked up at Carlos who was staring down at her. More especially he loves her, and she smiled.

Carlos rolled his eyes and she frown, why was he rolling his eyes, is he not here to see her.

"Let's go Triffany, I came to pick you up." Carlos told her with a cunning smile on his lips.

She was holding a large bowl of chips and was seeing a movie and he knew she had been having a lot of fun while torturing him.

Triffany looked at her cousin that were still staring at Carlos, she knew if she doesn't go with him now, her cousins will keep acting like a Zombie.

"Alright." She puts down the bowl of chips and picked up her bag as she straighten her dress.

She don't even want to imagine how he knew she was here, it just seems to be the only place she knew and perhaps he had also known.

"Allison, Nick, I will see you both later." She told them and they nod, still looking at Carlos which made her rolled her eyes.

Her cousins were unbelievable!

Carlos told them goodbye and left the apartment with Triffany.
