BILLIONAIRE’S SECRETARY

“Wow, we finally made it without losing our way,” Nicole said as she hopped out of the car and glanced at the exquisite mansion.

And at that moment I was so speechless as I started imagining what having an alluring house like this would be like, though I have always wanted to have a home like this with an interlock.

As my imagination about the alluring house began to go deeper, I was brought back to reality by Nicole, who was bringing out my box from the back seat.

“Tina, you have to hurry up, so you would not be late, you just have ten minutes remaining,” Nicole cautioned me as she started walking towards the mansion, and the box made some annoying noise on the interlock as I followed behind her.

Every corner of the mansion was so exquisite and well designed, which showed that they were taken complete care of.

“Nicole, I cannot help but admire the beauty of this mansion, it is so alluring,” I said as sparks of admiration appeared in my eyes.

“Yeah, me too, but no.. this house is not alluring, it is bewitching,” Nicole said as I stared at her with bewilderment.

As we began to approach the building, I could see that the mansion was a four-story duplex that had a combination of dark red and beautiful purple colored paint, and with that, I would call it the home of a villain. But I was not sure I described it well because even though my boss acted like the devil, that does not mean his house would be described as the home of a villain.

No sound was heard as we walked towards the house, not even the sounds that houses make like air conditioning, furnaces, stairwell creaking, or the refrigerator cycling on. I thought I was the only one who noticed it, but Nicole asked me, and with that, I knew she was also trying to understand the surroundings of the house.

As I continued to look around, I saw a big swimming pool at one end and, at the other end, a tennis pitch.

“Tina” Nicole called me.

“I am all ears,” I replied hesitatingly.

“Why isn’t any sound coming out of the house? It is dead silent like no one lives there,” Nicole asked as she moved closer to where I was like she was scared.

There was nothing but a silence that seemed to have been thickening since we entered the building.

“Nicole, I can not possibly answer that because this is where the address stated and the map also did the same, so do not be scared,” I answered and also assured her at the same time as she nodded her head in approval.

As we approached, I remembered that I had to bid Nicole farewell so she could go back safely and on time because of the traffic.

“Nicole, I think I can manage from here, you have to be home on time, and you can only do that if you leave here now. I would not want you to get stuck in traffic,” I said to her with concern in my heart.

I was going to miss her.

Like seriously, I was going to miss her a lot.

“But I wanted to help you unpack,” Nicole said, but no, I could not let her in because it was my first time coming here and that boss of mine is a demon.

“Nicole, I would have loved it for you to help me with that, but you know, you remember how I described him, Nicole, please, that man has nothing good to talk about and I am not ready to separate any fight.” I said this plainly because I knew that Nicole would not take such an insult and she would not go down without a fight.

“If you say so, then I will leave, but remember to call me once you settle in okay,” she said, and I was so glad she accepted the offer of going home without quarreling.

“Sure, I will,” I said.

“Do not be so glad that I just accepted to go home, in fact, I am ready for any argument, but I am going home because I want you to get in there if possible a minute before 7 p. m.” Nicole defended herself as I smiled happily.

Nicole was really the best thing I had in my life.

“Okay, I love you so much,” I said as I hugged her immediately, and she hugged me back.

“I will miss you too,” Nicole said.

“Okay, good bye, you have to go now,” I said to her as I released myself from the hug and collected the box she was holding.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“I will go now, but take care of yourself, bye,” Nicole said, and I waved at her as she headed back towards the car and I continued walking towards the mansion.

As I walked, I began to notice the house very well.

Nicole was actually right, this house is really bewitching.

According to what my eyes calculated, it was a ten-acre plot of land that had a scrub and a little garden at one end with lemon, guava, banana, and avocado trees that were fully loaded with ripe fruits.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the main entrance of the house. It was a very large door that could accommodate twenty to twenty-five people passing through at the same time.

It had a perfectly designed eight-foot-long door that looked like a caved image of a lion, painted black, with a shiny white golden knob in the exact middle, which was so tempting that you would be definitely tempted to turn those handles.

I was also tempted to open the door, and without a second thought, I turned the handle, and it opened so widely that what I saw was a hall that led to a large sitting room. The walls were designed with mirrors, and I took my first step into the house as I saw my reflection everywhere, even on the black tiles.
