The Ceo’s proposal

-Do you think I am capable of deceiving you? -Bianca, of course not, and yes, I know you doubt me because I wasn’t a saint when we met. But now everything is different. You are my girl and the mother of my daughter.

Being angry was only good for others so I wouldn’t give anyone the pleasure of seeing me upset out of jealousy. I felt we were being watched so I smiled and kissed him casually, I don’t want to be reckless and get carried away by my emotions that don’t let me think and analyze what’s going on around me.

-Mrs. Bianca, young Eros, would you like something for lunch?

I can’t judge that girl, she believed in my fool of a husband who only tricked her to take her to bed, I don’t know how Eros was really like in his adolescence, but for this girl to believe him, something else must have happened, ” or maybe I’m just making silly ideas in my head”.

But, the only thing I wish is that this girl is not the same as Melissa, who by the way I’m sure must be waiting for the opportunity to do her thing when we get back. At first I thought Eros’ siblings would be a problem, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that they are very different from their older brother.

-That face is already in a better light. -said Aria, making me smile, “Wow!

-What? -said Eros smiling

-He smiled, wow. It’s just that… seeing you with a baby and a girl by your side… enjoying her company. -He laughs -If the Eros from before saw this scene, he’d say it’s not him.

I can’t help but laugh because I know he’s right, Eros has changed and I’ve witnessed that, although there’s still a bit of the ambitious Eros I knew, addicted to his work. We were having a good time as a family when we heard them arguing, when we approached the housekeeper she apologized for the inconvenience but her daughter was being insolent in trying to sit at the same table as us.

-There is nothing wrong with that. -She said annoyed. -Besides she is also with the Ainsworths and is not a member of the family. If she can do it, so can I.

-You’d better shut up Claudia. How can you buy her, she’s the heir’s wife and you’re just the housekeeper’s daughter. Don’t be stupid.

The girl was stunned, without saying anything she left so angry that she pushed the maid who came with the drinks, her mother seeing the mess she made tried to help her but ended up cutting herself with one of the pieces of glass.

I gave the baby to Eros to help her, but I noticed she was crying, I felt bad for her because she is a mother and she only wants the best for her daughter who has an unacceptable behavior, “I never gave that kind of problems to my mother.”

-Mrs. Bianca, put that down please, I will clean it up. You can hurt yourself.

-You shouldn’t worry about me, you should worry about yourself. -I look for something to bandage her wound, disinfectant and some absorbent cotton. She refuses to let me help her but I took her hand and started to clean it -You know, she reminds me of my mother. Overprotective, moody but kind and loving.

-She must feel lucky to have such a beautiful and gentle daughter.

-She actually keeps scolding me even though I’m married. -We both laughed. I can tell how much he loves his daughter. But why are you afraid to go near her?

-He noticed. -Actually we all noticed that she doesn’t approach her daughter as a mother, it’s as if she treats her as if she were someone important. -She is ashamed that her mother is a housekeeper. Her friends think she is an orphan.

-That can’t be. -How does she allow that?

-My wife is right. -How does she allow Claudia to do that to her?. -I didn’t realize Eros was in the kitchen. I appreciate you and your daughter too, but you can’t let her treat you like you’re nothing.

-What can I do? -she mumbles disappointed -Since she went to college thanks to the scholarship her father gave her… she started acting that way and I haven’t heard from her for a long time… until yesterday.

-What, how come? wasn’t she coming to see you? -She shakes her head, “It’s too much what she’s done to you.

I would never do something like that to my mother, eros looked sad for the lady, “surely she is fond of her” according to what her sister told me, she raised the trio of siblings but when they bought that place, eros’ mother sent her and her daughter when she was 7 years old, every year they would come to this place for vespers and for the 4th of July well that was until she was 12, she didn’t come back to this place until now.

-Why the drama? -She appears and when she sees her mother she makes a gesture of displeasure -Please, cover your hand, it’s disgusting.

I couldn’t tolerate her treating her mother like that, pissed off I made her close her mouth with a slap, she annoyed yells at me and tries to hit me back but I don’t let her and stop her slap.

-You, you don’t deserve to be his daughter, you think you are so much when you are nobody, not even the scholarship that my father in law gave you can change what you are, the daughter of a housekeeper that Eros loves as if she was his mother, do you think he would be with you seeing how you treat his second mother?

-Mrs. Bianca please?Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

-I pity you, you pretend to be something you are not, but you want to be. If you don’t stop being naive, nobody will notice you.

I let her go abruptly when she fits her claws on my wrist, she laughs telling me that I should worry more about the kind of husband I had married because, if he really loved me, he wouldn’t have kissed her when she undressed in front of him.
