Chapter 5 Business

Noah's POV

All you saw when we were passing by was grass and trees. It was weird that he lives so far away from the city where he can live in one of those fancy penthouses but instead, he wants to live in the woods.

I don't blame him for that since it's more peaceful out here where the nosey atmosphere was. Another suspicion is that he lives all the way out here because he can kill off all his victims without being bothered. I need to stop watching How To Get Away With Murder.

Christiana was asleep on my shoulder while Elle was asleep on my chest. They had a rough day so they needed rest especially Elle. I knew that it was a big change for them but I want the best for them.

To come to think of it I have to reschedule Elle's doctor's appointment to another day.

Turning my head, I looked at Trevor who was talking on the phone. He kept saying Xaiver a couple of times so I'm guessing that's his name. That name sounds so familiar and I remember seeing that name somewhere.

"No, I didn't kidnap them, my Dad wanted them to stay with me since it wasn't safe for them at their house." He spoke on the phone then rolled his eyes.

The speaker said something that caused him to land his eyes on me. "That's none of your business! You don't see me all up in you and Keylan business."

That name sounds familiar also and it's aggravating that I can't think of these people. Trevor continues talking on the phone, arguing back and forth with the person like they are 10 year olds.

About 5 minutes later he finally said goodbye with a Toodles.

He looks at me then smiles. "Sorry, that was my best friend Xaiver." He chuckles, putting his phone in his blazer pocket. I'm surprised he had friends that would tolerate him.

He started to stare at my girls and I raised a brow at him. "How old is she?" He said referring to Elle that was on my lap asleep. That sounded so wrong for him to ask me that but at the same time, he looked scared by his wide eyes.

"3 years old." I stated and he nodded, looking nervous like she was going to attack him.

It looked like he wanted to ask more but the car came to a stop when we were at a gate. The driver put in a code and it opened so he could drive through the trail. No surprise to look at a huge condo. It was a beautiful place with trees scattered everywhere.

When the car came to a halt, I woke up Christiana and she woke up with hooded eyes. She grabs Elle but we didn't wake her up though. While we were getting out the car, the door was slightly open and my eyes went wide.

I thought his house was supposed to be secured for a person like him. He noticed his house door was open and he barged in the house.

We walked in the house to see a broken vase on the floor. "Stay back until I clear the house." He told us and he walked away having his security followed behind him. How can someone break into the house and he has top security everywhere?

Christiana looked at me like she just read my mind and I shrugged. People will do anything to get their hands on all these paintings and vases from his house.

Trevor came back with an angry expression on his face. He ran his fingers through his hair aggressively then looked at me. "Someone broke into my house, but I already know who it was by looking back at the cameras."

Who would break into his house?

One of his security guards came back into the room with something in his hand. "I found this on your bed, sir." He handed Trevor a note and he took it, reading it silently before shoving it back into his chest.

"I want this whole house checked!" He screams at his security and they nodded without saying Right away sir before scurrying to inform the other security's.

About an hour later me Christiana and Elle were sitting down on his nice comfortable couch while watching everyone walking back and forth in the room, checking everywhere.

Is it that serious?

I'm starting to get worried that this was a bad idea to be staying here. An intruder broke into his house without any problems. They had some skills.

Everyone started to leave and Trevor came into the room. It was awkward silence until Elle broke it. "Your hair looks messy." Elle giggles and Trevor looks taken aback by her finally speaking. She hasn't said a word since she woke up.

"Come on." He said before leaving the room with us following him. I started to eye the photos on the wall and it was one photo that caught my eye.

It was him and a man that had blonde hair with hazel eyes. His hair was a lot shorter in this photo but you could tell he had a genial smile on his face.

"Noah?" Someone said to me, cutting me off of my thoughts. My face started to flush from him calling my name. I don't know why but it just happened.

He smirks when he notices my blush face then walks towards me with taunted eyes. My heart started to beat fast from every step he took towards me. It was like I was in some trance and I didn't want to move.

When he was about to take an inch step towards me but he was caught off from Elle cried for me. "Dada!" Elle said from the room and I scurried in the room where they were at.

It was a nice room that could fit all of us because I didn't trust all of us splitting apart.

Christiana looked at me when I walked into the room. "Why does it look like you saw someone naked?" She laughed and I rolled my eyes at her.

Everyone blush easily from stupid things right?

Trevor's POV

I looked down at the paper that Nate had left on my bed. Every time I read it I just want to find him and kill him from my own bare hands.

Taking a cigarette from my pocket, I lit up and put it between my lips. This is the only thing that's helping me right now instead of going out but I don't want to leave Noah and his girls by themselves.

Especially since Nate is coming for him.

Dear Daddy,

Since you didn't hear about my little warning I said that I was watching you. I heard that you're with some little slut that isn't me. It would be a shame that something happened to him. You told me all these lies that you loved me and I really believed you. But I do feel like you love me and it's hard for you to admit it. I'm showing you the ways of my love and you keep testing my patience. As for your slut he's a goner. -Nate.

I crumpled the piece of paper in my hands then threw it at the door. All this shit happening right now is too much for me to handle.

My father wanted him to stay with me because he wanted to speak to him about something. I know my Dad and he just wants something out of Noah to put a good image on me.

I'm trying to figure out how and the hell he got in my condo without the alarm going off? That makes me scared that he is capable of doing anything. I'm going to install more advanced security to make sure this doesn't happen again.

I'm not the best person that everyone likes right now but I just don't take care of what people think of me.

Would you have someone to be smiley all the time even though deep down they are broken inside? I don't want to be that person that has to be perky and smiling all the time even though I do that.

That's my way of showing that I don't want to kill myself tomorrow.

It was a shock that the beauty has a child. That child looked like a devil when she was looking at me with her blue eyes. She might kill me in my sleep. A grown ass man that is scared of a 3 year old. I never liked kids and kids never liked me for some reason.

His twin is a beautiful woman but I shouldn't step my boundaries by even thinking about her. It looked like he wanted to slit my throat by even giving her a glance and I understand that.

I could tell Noah really cared about his girls and he would do anything to protect them. That's why he was so hesitating to stay with me. I wouldn't stay with myself also by how fucked up I am.

Leaning back in my office chair, I finally got up from my seat then left the room. I heard mummers coming from the room they were all staying in.

"What if he tries to kill us?" I heard the beauty say. I frown that he would even think that I would kill them. Something is wrong with me but I'm not a psychopath.

"You watch too many episodes of how to get away with murder it's just ridiculous." I heard his twin huff in annoyance. "Besides he seems like a nice man, you're just too paranoid to look at it."

"He's the reason why we're in this freaking mess! We could have all been at home right now." I heard him say in frustration. I frowned once again then left the door, going into my own room.

I looked over at Noah and his daughter and he was playing with her, teaching her colors in Spanish and she understood what he was saying. Surprisingly the devil was smart which she can plot on me in advance to kill me.

"What is color for red in Spanish?" He asked her and she sat there and thought about it. "Rojo!" She said in excitement and everyone clapped for her. So what does she know about her colors in Spanish?

I know my numbers in Spanish from 1 to 10 and that's a big accomplishment for someone like me.

The car came to a halt and my security opened the door for us. "Good morning Mr. Kingston." Henry greeted me and I gave him a nod for his presence.

They followed me into the building where everyone was greeting me as I passed them by. "Good morning sir your father told me to inform you that he would like to see you when you arrive." Melna, the front desk lady stated and I thank her, pressing the elevator button.

"Wow, your father's company is running so successful. I always wonder what it will feel like to run one." Christiana said amazed then saddens at the thought.

Before I could answer her statement the door opened up to my father's floor. I told them to wait here in the lobby and they sat down in the chairs by his door. Pushing the door open, I walked into his office where he was looking down at some papers. He looks up when he notices my presence.

"I'm here, your majesty." I bow then sat down in front of his desk. He ignored my dramatic entrance.

"You did what I told you to do?" He asks me without greeting me.

"Hello, Trevor, how are you doing? I'm great Dad thanks for asking." I talked to myself and I looked at my Dad who looked like he wasn't in the mood for me.

"Yes Dad I did what you told me to do and they are outside in the lobby."

"They?" He asks me with a raised brow.

"Yes, they. He has a daughter and a twin sister." I told him and he leans back in his seat, taking all this information I told him. I could tell he was thinking really hard about this.

"That's great! The media will think you love kids." He said getting up from his seat. I looked at him with a confused expression.

"But what does this have to do with me?" He walks around me with an evil grin, putting his hands on my shoulder. "Glad that you asked your son. You're going to fake a relationship with Noah to help your image for the future."

He knows that I don't do that relationship shit. I knew he wanted something out of Noah. "Dad, he is not the type of person to do something like this. Trust me I know. I have already tried and he threatened me several times plus everyone knows I don't do relationships."

"That's the point! It will come as a shocker to the world that Trevor Kingston has finally settled down. You both are already trending that boost down Xaiver and Keylan's trend."

I hate that he's just using us for his precious company. His biggest one is in California where he wants me to take over in the future. I do want to step to intake in my Dad's legacy when he passes it on to me.

"What does Noah get out of this?" I asked and he smirks knowing money has got something to do with it.

"Fine but you're explaining everything so he won't murder me. He's a feisty little one." He nodded and told me to send only Noah in.

Noah walks in and he eyes everything that was surrounding him. His eyes landed on my Dad which he looked scared of. My Dad gave Noah a warm smile. "Have a seat Noah." He points to the seat beside me.

"Let's talk business shall we?"
