Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 75 - Seventy-five : Keep Him Company.

Maya's POV

It was still hard to imagine my boyfriend Andrew was someone who would flash his genitals in public - at lest he wasn't that lewd the time we were dating.

The case was the hottest trending news on social media and the court have convicted him for indecent exposure.

Though my ex-boyfriend Andrew which is currently the defendant raised lack of intent as a defense but the numerous evidence heaped against him didn't give him a surviving chance.

Finally the court imposed a fine of one thousand dollars, alongside a three hours community service for a month.

I knew most of his friends who had mocked me after our breakup would try to chat me up so I knowingly didn't open any of my chats ; they could go to hell for all I care.

But my mouth twitched, wasn't Nik a little bit extreme this time ? Though at first it was hard to believe but the way evidence kept piling after the other, told me strings were being pulled from behind.

No one else had promised me revenge aside from him and truthfully I had forgotten all about that ; swept it under the carpet.

I shivered and wrapped myself with my arms, Nik could really bear a grudge.I wouldn't even dare to cross him, I had learnt my lesson the hard way : someone willing to lock me up for supposed forty million dollars fraud was not to be trifled with - I still haven't forgotten that.

My gaze was torn from the script I was currently studying when Izzy strolled into the living room and sat on the other end of the sofa I was sitting on.

She gave me a dirty look when I wouldn't stop staring at her " What?! " She spat " Do you think I came here to play another prank? I came down to eat, haven't had my breakfast yet, understand? " She raised her chin, giving me a defiant look .

I tsked and shook my head " Who said anything? aren't you the one defending your purpose? "

She glowered at me but I continued nevertheless " Besides, your reputation precedes you "

Izzy chokes "Y-you! "

I raised my chin " Why? does it infuriates you? then try being good for once " I concluded and went back to my script while she snorts and looked away.

I hardly took a breath when the doorbell rang and next thing I knew Annabelle was running into my arms and I carried her off her feet , though that took a lot of groaning and effort - the girl weighed quite a lot even though she did not look it.

"My little pumpkin " I said pinching her cheek and she let out a gurgle of laughter. What an adorable kid! If only Izzy could be half as adorable as her.

"What am I even talking about? " I scoffed in my head. If Isabelle could be as cute and adorable as Anabelle then that means the kingdom of Atlantis has reappeared on land.

"How are you doing, Aunty Maya ?" She asked with a concerned face as I put her down .

I smiled " This aunt of yours is doing well "

Annabelle turns towards Izzy " Hi Izzy " She greeted and waved her hand at her, but the young lady in question scrunches up her nose in disgust and looks away.

I massaged my temple, this girl !

But as usual Annabelle didn't mind and rushed towards her and sat down beside her but Izzy put up a hand saying,

"Three metres away "

But Annabelle didn't listen at all and instead engulfed her in a tight hug , surprising me as well.

Has Annabelle gotten over her phobia of Izzy?

But Izzy pushed her away " Touch me again and I'll make sure that barbie pink manicured fingers of yours are chopped off one after the other and used for my birthday cake decoration, how yummy " She emphasized and

licked her lips .

This time the threat was effective cause Anabelle became as silent as a hound at fault and gave her some space but just as I was about to scold Izzy, my phone vibrated with a message.

I opened it only to discover it was from Cecil and she was asking if it was okay to send her son over to my place, she had an emergency.

I stared at the two girls having a staring contest and smiled, they would definitely keep him company and so I replied her,

"Fine, you can send him over. Your kid is in safe hands, trust me "

I turned around in time to see the once quiet Annabelle asking Isabelle " Hey Izzy, what do you like the most? "

But Isabelle gave her a ridiculous look and raised a brow " Why? You want to take it from me? "

I watched Annabelle go red in the face and stutter "N-no, of course not.. I-m just curious because I want to help Y-you out "

Izzy gave her a sweet smile that never did reach her eyes "Oh Annabelle, how sweet of you " She said in a singsong before all smiles vanished from her face as if it had never being there at the first place.

"Trust me, anything I need; I take it, and anything I don't have ; I take it. So thanks for your unappreciated concern dear cousin "

"Manners young lady" I warned when I couldn't stand her sharp-tongue anymore, the girl really needs to be taught how to be nice.

"No, it's okay " Annabelle defended her

So I faced this sweet but dumb girl " Anytime Izzy says something insulting , you stand up for yourself, you hear me? "

She nodded and swallowed nervously which wasn't surprising considering this was my first time of being strict with her, Izzy was normally the one who takes the heat.

As if on cue, the doorbell rang and I hurried to open it while the girls stared at me in curiosity, it was obvious they weren't expecting any visitor.

"Hi Cecil " I welcomed and dropped a peck on both cheeks as she did the same.

"I'm so sorry to bother you but I have an emergency and I can't leave Pedro at home all by himself and - "

"It's okay, I totally understand . Besides Pedro is a nice boy and I've got kids inside who would keep him company " I explained and took Pedro from her.

"Thanks love, you're a life saver " She complimented me with a grateful smile and then squat down to ruffle Pedro's hair saying

"Be a good kid, mama's gonna be back soon "

But Pedro eyes me before returning his gaze to his mom and pouts his lips " Stop it mom, you're embarrassing me "

"Really? " Cecil's face lit up in amusement before she laughs "My son is all grown up "

She then stood and waved at me " I'll see you guys later "

I waved back " Good luck " She left and I welcomed Pedro into the house

"You don't have to be sad cause Isabelle and Anabelle are here and I'm sure they would keep you..... " I trailed off the moment we reached the living room cause the way the girls were staring at us; if eyes were bullet then we would be long dead.

Suddenly they stiffened and for a while nobody says anything until Annabelle screamed.
