chapter 47

"mummy are you crying, did I say something wrong?" Christopher asked confused

Jane didn't know what to say, she just hugged him

"no baby, am not crying, I love you okay?" Jane whispered

"I love you too mummy" Chris said back

"come here Chris, allow your mother to go to work, your mummy needs to go to work so she can get money to buy you a lot of crayons so you can draw more" Mrs has been observing the mother and son conversation, she felt extremely sad to see Jane so helpless so she had to come in for her

"really mummy is going to buy me lots of crayon?" Chris asked grinning

"yes of course I will buy you as much as you want" Jane said and rose to her feet

"you should get going now so you don't get there late" Mrs Whitney reminded her

even though she was really reluctant to go, she didn't have a choice, she needs to work

"okay then I will get going, bye baby" Jane said

"bye mummy" Chris happily said

she muttered a thanks to Mrs Whitney and quickly ran out of the house

she got to the mansion at exactly 11:55 in the morning, she pratically ran from the gate to the main house

she got into the kitchen and it was a really busy scene, everyone was busy cutting, slicing and all sort of things

"good thing you are back, it's almost time for lunch, you should start preparing Mr Christopher's lunch" Estella said

"do I have to do that" she frowned, just the thought makes her want to cry, she still she haven't gotten over the scare he gave her this mornings, he was such a jerk now she has to make and serve him lunch

"of course you have to, isn't that why you are here?" Mrs Whitney gave her a glare and signaled for her to get started"

she turned and was about to leave the kitchen

"and when do you think you are going?" Estella asked

"I need to ask him what he wants to eat for lunch, I wouldn't want to prepare what he's going to reject" Jane pouted

"hmm that's good you should go"

Jane went into his room but didn't find him there, she didn't where else to look when she was about to go ask Estella when she saw the door to the study slightly open, he must be there she thought

she knocked but nobody answered, she knocked again but still no answer she pushed the door slightly and poked her inside and found out that he was inside

she went inside but he didn't seem to notice her, he was sitting so elegantly on the chair, and he looked deep in thought

even though he was not smiling he still looked so handsome and irresistible, she wonders how many girlfriends he must have

he was looking at something in a case, definitely not a earing, probably a necklace or bracelet, or was it a ring

is he going to propose to his girlfriend at the party tomorrow, she wanted to take a closer look at it when he suddenly looked up and their eyes locked

they looked into each other's eyes for what seems like forever, when Jane realized herself she quickly stepped back and cleared her throat and Chris quickly locked the box and placed it in the drawer

"good afternoon sir" she greeted

Chris didn't answer her at first, he hated it when people barge in on him like that, does she have a death sentence or what

he was going to say something when her green dress caught his attention

gosh she looks so beautiful and pure, her eyes were not tied up too like yesterday, and his dick screamed at the sight of her, he quickly suppressed the thought, there was no way he could feel attracted to her or any woman for that matter

"why did you come in like that without knocking?" he asked coldly without even looking at her

Jane swallowed hard and thought to herself ' he's still in a bad mood, well I better get used to this '

"well I knocked like twice but you were not answering me" she explained

"is that so, so what do you want?" Chris asked

"I just wanted to know what you want for lunch so I will prepare it as it's almost lunch time" Jane explained

"oh, that just make anything" Chris replied

"uhmm, anything?" she asked suprised

"yes anything you can leave now, and let me know when the designer comes I will be in my room"

"alright sir" she said and left the study

she got into the kitchen and felt even more confused now what was she supposed to cook now, well she will just do anything

Jane finished preparing the food and made her way to his room, she knocked and after hearing something like ' come in ', she went in

she saw expecting to see him on his bed, but he was by the corridor painting, he paints, is there anything he can't do?

it reminded her of her son, he loves to paint too and and come to think of it they both bear the same name

"you paint?" she couldn't help but say

Christopher looked up at her, and she felt a bit intimidated, she must have offended him again

"I'm so sorry sir, I just got a bit carried away" she was trying to explain when Chris cut her

"you like paintings?" Chris asked her, his voice was soft and warm, Jane felt a bit relaxed and answered

"well not exactly but the most important person in my life does, so I have no choice than to love it"

"oh I see, a he or she?" Chris asked her

"uhnn" she asked back not getting what he was saying

"is the person a he or a she?"

"oh that's, a he"

Chris just nodded

"you can drop the food and go" he said in his usual cold voice

Jane was a bit startled but quickly recovered, she dropped the food and left the room.
