Babysitting The Billionaire’s Adult Son

Melanie drops her phone on the bed as Mr Gordon enters her room. “I just contact the lady now, and she will be here anytime soon.” She informs him without looking his way.

“Alright,” he yawns and plunges onto the bed. “What is that?” He asks, pointing at the stuff on her bed.

“Oh,” Melanie smile and pack the stuff together so he could sleep properly. “It’s just flower studs that I’m making for the kids.” She grins and Mr Gordon just nods and closes his eyes to sleep.

“Stop stressing yourself, leave all the work for the planner.” he groans and pulls her to join him on the bed.

“Seriously, I need to do this,” Melanie whine. She gently releases his hand and moves a bit away from him.

Mr Gordon sits up and glares hard at her. “Did I pay so much money for them so that you could be helping them out?” He snaps at her and Melanie drops the flower stud in her hand.

“I didn’t stay at home so I could be playing with you, I’m doing this for Archie, not you!” She rolls her eyes.

Mr Gordon didn’t say anything, he plunge back to the bed and close his eyes to sleep. “I feel bad for not wishing him before he left the house.” she deplore while applying gum to the flower.

“It’s not too late. It’s just 10 in the morning, you can still call him.” He sneers with his eyes close.

“I’m not talking to you, stop acting pained.” She glares hard at him.

“You shouldn’t have said it if you don’t want me to hear. It’s just the two of us here.” he yawns so loudly that Melanie wonders if he didn’t have a glimpse of sleep the previous night.

“You’re sounding tired. What were you doing all night?” she ask and he hiss before tossing on the bed.

“Playing games.” He whines and Melanie shakes her head in disbelief.

“Games?! What are you? Five years old kid?” she scoffs and he pouts like a child.

“Stop pouting, you’re not a baby.” She scoffs and he arches his brows.

“Of course, I’m your baby.” he grins and she throws a pillow at him. He ducks and winks at her.

“If you know you are my baby, don’t just sleep there come help momma out,” she smirks and he stands up from the bed at once.

“Told you.” he smile, picking up a stud from the bowl. “I’m your baby.” he makes a cute face which makes Melanie laugh so hard.

“How do you even do this?” He whimpers as the flower he’s making doesn’t come out great.

Melanie stops with the one she’s making and stares at him to have a look at what he is doing. “Hey,” she raises her palm for him to stop. “Do it like this,” she informed him.

She curves the flower and puts another one at the top then apply gum at the bottom. “Now place it gently on the stud,” she instructs him.

Mr Gordon does as she said and he smiles brightly when the flower stud comes out nice. “Do you see that?” he grins and move closer to Melanie. He fixes the flower stud on her hair.

“You are so easy on the eyes. Your beauty is so arresting that I feel like committing.” he sings her praise with a soft look on his face.

Melanie feels a burning movement on her cheeks, she needs no soothsayer to tell her that she’s blushing like an idiot. “You’re so sweet,” she confesses, looking away from him.

“Only for you, honey!” Mr Gordon says with a wink.

Melanie cleared her throat before dropping the last flower stud into the bowl. It is more than enough to share with the kids. She separates the flower stud into two different bowls, girls to a side and boys to a side.

“Guess the one with more colour is for females?!” Mr Gordon ask, Melanie didn’t need to see his face before she could sense the amusement in his tone.

“Yes. Exactly!” she smiles and takes the bowls to the table.

Mr Gordon traces his eyes on her, he doesn’t blink a wink until she gets back to him, on the bed.

“I have something to say.” she cleared her throat, and Mr Gordon sat right on the bed anticipating what she has to say.

“I never knew you were observing me that much yesterday. And how you knew what I want at that moment is still a thing I’m yet to process. You sent such an amount of money to me without asking for it, yet you act as if it’s not a big deal. I didn’t have the chance to thank you yesterday because I don’t know how saw it. Thank you very much, Alfred!” She says staring at him in a way that melts his heart.

Mr Gordon takes her hand and gives it a light squeeze. “You don’t need to ask before I will know what to do for you. As a lady, you need money for a lot of things I don’t want you to be down for a second. I want you to be happy always and if money is what will make you happy, I have more than enough to share with you because I’m not joking when I said, I’m ready to do anything for you.” He moves his hand to her face and wipes a tear that’s been fighting to drop from her eyes with his thumb. He urges her to stop crying and she nods shyly.

“I have something to give you, I hope it’s not too small for you,” she says then pick up the box from the nightstand and places it in his palm. “I hope you don’t mind that I got something cheap for you.” she smile nervously.

Mr Gordon opens the box and a beautiful smile creeps up his face. “Thank you very much, Mel.” he smiles and then picks out the earrings. It’s so beautiful that he feels like crying. No one has ever given him a present before and he feels so much.

“Did you like it?” She asks, staring at his face in amusement.

“It’s very beautiful. Thanks for getting me a gift.” he smiles and pulls her in for a hug.

Just then, there comes a beep on the door which indicates that someone is outside by the gate. “I will check…”

“No, I will go check who it is and I’m very sure it’s the lady we are expecting.” she stands up from the bed. She slides her feet inside the flip-flop and rushes out of her room.

Later that evening.

The event planner and her apprentice are downstairs, welcoming the kids from Archie’s school to the decorated living room. All the couches had been moved, leaving them on the party table. No one would know the sitting room is that big and spacious.

Melanie is inside her room, fixing her hair when she hears a soft knock on the door. “Yes. Enter!” she says, in between her closed mouth.

The door twists open and someone steps in. A girl walks in with a shopping bag in her hand.

“Good day, ma’am.” the girl greeted her warmly. Melanie stared at her face for a while. “Yeah, welcome. Sorry, do I know you?” she asks the girl who wouldn’t stop smiling at her hair.

“Mr Gordon ask me to deliver this bag to you,” she says and hands over the bag to her. After checking for a while, Melanie couldn’t say anything in front of the girl. She dismisses her and the poor girl smiles before exiting the room.

Melanie gasp for breath as soon as the girl left. She doesn’t know if she’s seeing right or if he sent this so much jewellery for her.

Jade bracelet, diamond necklace and a lot of silver earrings.

She picks up her phone and sends a text to Alfred to meet her in her room for a brief chat. She vows not to pick anything from the box until he arrived.

Mr Gordon walks in and stops right on his spot when he caught a glimpse of Melanie in a silver sleeveless gown that has a slit from the front and the slit stops right on the skull.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Mel!” he exclaims in shock, he moves closer to her and stops right in front of her. Checking her out in the tantalising dress she is putting on. “You look drop-dead gorgeous.” his eyes sparkle almost getting blind by her shin. She looks so tempting and it’s not his fault for feeling that way.

“Thank you!” Melanie smile. Her gaze moves to the bag on the table and he traces his gaze to the direction her eyes go.

“Please don’t reject it, all these things are nothing, really?!” he groans.

Melanie sigh then smuggle into his arms. “Thank you.” she sniffs. Mr Gordon releases her from the hug and stares at her face.

“You don’t have to tear up. If I were you, I wouldn’t do anything to ruin my makeup.” He teases and she hit him lightly on his chest.

Melanie pick up a pair of silver earrings and wear them on her piercing. She fixes the jade bracelet and she smiles at how beautiful it makes her hand look.

“You’re so alluring as a cup of wine that I wouldn’t mind having a sip.” He smiles while checking out her every move.

“Keep on dreaming.” she rolls her eyes and slides her foot inside a pair of gold heels. She looks like the model that she is and the jewellery that she is putting on makes her more beautiful.

She grabs her gold purse and makes to head towards the door when her eyes caught a glimpse of the earrings Mr Gordon is wearing.

It’s the earrings she bought for him and she feels happy for buying him something that brings beauty to his sexy ears. “You’re not looking bad either.” She gulps down the sudden urge to grab his face and kiss the living daylight out of his lips.

“Is that all you have to say?” He leans down and plants a peck on her lips. Thank God she’s not wearing coloured lipstick, else he would have stained his lips.

“Maybe you just understand what I want,” she says, moving a strand of hair behind her ear.

“Let’s go. The kids are here,” he says and grabs her hand. He intertwined their fingers and walk her out of her room.

Mr Gordon walk them downstairs to where the school kids and other people that had to leave their comfort zone to celebrate his son’s birthday were. He isn’t sure if Archie would want it bigger than that since he has never celebrated his birthday before. Mr Gordon make the event very small and cosy for him

After everyone has settled down to welcome the celebrant, there comes a rustling sound of footsteps and everyone knows who the person is. They all went hush as the light in the living go off on its own.

Everyone remains silent as the door twists open.
