CHAAPTER THIRTY TWO
MIA’S POV
After breastfeeding my baby, I was heading downstairs to have a fresh breath because I had been sitting inside the room for a whole month.
When I got to the sitting room, I saw Alex and his ex-girlfriend arguing. I stood on the stairs listening to all they were saying until Bryan started crying, which made them look in my direction.
Ella called me baby mama and a bitch, she doesn’t know I’m married to Alex because we had a small wedding.
I also heard she was coming to stay in the mansion. I’m going to avoid her the best I can, because I’m very sure she is here for trouble.
While I was still breastfeeding Bryan, Mark came into the house. He didn’t bother to greet me or my baby, he just followed Alex to his office. After a while, they came downstairs, and Alex told me that he wanted to see me.
“Mia, I want to see you. Let’s go to my office to talk better,” Alex said.
“You don’t have to tell me anything, I heard everything, and I’m ok with it as long as she doesn’t cross her line and she doesn’t look for my trouble, because if she does, I’m ready to give her back at any fuckin time,” I uttered, with my lips a little bit upturned, as Alex just opened his mouth, unable to talk.
Mark noticed the tension in the room and decided to ease the tension.
After playing with Bryan Little, Mark bid me goodbye.
After that incident that happened earlier today, Alex has been giving me the silent treatment, which I don’t really care about, all I care about is my little bunnies.
NEXT DAY
I was breastfeeding Bryan when I heard a commotion going on in the passage to our room. I stood up from the rocky chair to check on what was going on.
“Alex didn’t tell any of you to clean up a room for me.” I heard the most annoying voice that I didn’t wish to hear early in the morning.
“So what is the work of a maid in the house when I can’t order you around? You can clean an ordinary room for me,” Ella said.
“You are not our boss. I don’t recognise you as the boss’s wife, the boss’s friend, or even the boss himself. So you won’t listen to anything you are telling us because we don’t know you and you aren’t paying our salary.” One of the maids announced, obviously angry by her statement.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Ella laughed like a witch and landed a slap on the maid’s face. After she did that, I was forced to talk.
“Do you have to do that, Ella? You should have just called your baby daddy and informed him that no room was cleaned up for you instead of physically abusing the poor maid who wasn’t given any instructions by her boss,” I intervened.
“Wow!!! Hello. So you are also talking, you don’t have the right to tell me what to do, I can do anything I like. So far, I’m in my man’s house,” she responded sarcastically. I scoffed and entered my room.
I don’t even want to know what happened next, for all I care, she is not my visitor, she is Alex’s visitor, so that is none of my business.
After an hour, I heard Alex’s voice. She must have called him, I thought.
He came into our room, greeted us, and carried Bryan before sending for the head maid.
“You don’t speak rudely to any of my visitors, do you understand?” He cautioned the maid.
“So far as you work for me, you should respect my visitors, whether you know them or not. Do you understand? Alex asked, as we were correcting the maid who talked rudely to Ella earlier.
He then instructed her to clean one of the master bathrooms for her and her son downstairs. The maid bowed and went out to do what she was sent to do.
Not quite long after the maid left, we heard a knock on the door. Alex stood up to check who was at the entrance and saw that it was Ella again.
“Ella, What else do you want? I have instructed one of the maids to clean up the master bedroom downstairs for you and your son,” Alex informed her, and she smirked.
“That is why I am here. You have the master bedroom upstairs, so why do you choose to give me the one downstairs? Is it because of this thing she pointed in my direction?” She questioned him.
This Ella of a lady is stepping on my toes, I thought.
“Ella, please respect my woman. I won’t let you rain insults on her while I am here,” Alex warned her with a stern look.
And he continued, “And for the other master room, the master room is allocated to Mia. That is Mia’s room.”
“Since she is not staying there now and she is staying in your room, why do you move her there and make the room vacant for me to stay in?” Ella made her stupid suggestion as I shook my head.
Alex looked at her and closed the door against her face, not responding to what she was saying.
He walked to me and said, “Don’t listen to anything she is saying, I’m not going to let her affect your mental health.”
“Just put your mind at rest. She is going to leave her soonest because I’m very sure I’m not the owner of the child.” He reassured me, and I nodded.
“I wonder why she came back after she left me for more than a year. She left me and went with another man four years ago, and now she has come back after four years, claiming that she has a child for me. I don’t know what happened to her husband or why she came back to California with this unnecessary drama.” He explained the incident to me, looking so sad.
“I’m going to do a DNA test to be sure if the child is for me. If the child is truly mine, I’m just going to get a house for her and her son. I know it is going to be difficult to convince her, but I will try to do it,” he said. I nodded my head.
“You will get to the root of this and address the issue properly,” I told Alex.
He was playing with his child when his phone rang. I saw the caller named a private investigator. He excused himself outside to receive the phone call, not wanting to disturb Bryan.
