Chapter 27

 

 

Davina’s Pov:-

 

I hate myself for being stuck in a situation where I could do nothing but cry, I hate myself for signing those damn contract papers and I hate Arthur for everything he did. I hate him from the bottom of my heart and I wish I never met him. 

 

If anything happens to April I will not be able to forgive myself, I have to find her, I can’t handle the thought of something happening to her. I strolled towards the main door and walked out of the mansion. I looked around, but she was nowhere in my sight, “Oh god!” I said in frustration when I didn’t find her in the garden. 

 

I began looking everywhere for her but couldn’t find her, I bit my lower lip while pushing my hair back. “Where are you, April?” I asked and began strolling towards the main gate. 

 

“Miss. Ellis,” I heard Coop calling me from behind, I stopped and turned around to see him walking towards me hurriedly. 

 

“We found her,” He said while smiling in relief,  I sighed in relief while tears rolled down my cheeks. 

 

“Please take me to her,” I said while pleading him with my eyes, he nodded his head and gestured to follow him. 

 

As I waited for him standing near the water fountain, he stopped the car in front of me, I quickly climbed in the car and he drove us out of the mansion. Just a few blocks away from the mansion, I could see a black SUV and two men dressed in black suits standing aside from the road, outside a closed park. One of them was holding a child, and I immediately recognised who the child was. 

 

Tears rolled my cheeks when I saw her, “April,” I whispered as Coop stopped the car in front of them.   

 

As soon as he stopped the car, I opened the door and rushed to her, the bodyguard handed her to me and I hugged her while letting my tears flow down my eyes. I kissed her cheek and looked at her face, I could see a thin line of tear stains on her face indicating that she cried. 

 

“Are you okay?” I asked while pushing her hair back, she nodded her head and stared at me. 

 

As the cold breeze hit me, I quickly climbed inside the car while thanking the bodyguards for finding her. Coop immediately drove us back to the mansion, he opened the door for me and I got out of it. As I was making my way back to my room, I saw Arthur watching me, standing in the middle of the stairs. 

 

I slowed down, while looking at him but didn’t stop, I walked past him while ignoring his blank stare and my handprint on his cheek. I marched straight to my room and closed the door as I stepped inside the room. 

 

While placing her on the bed, I removed the backpack she was wearing and placed it on the couch. I climbed on to the bed and sat beside her, I pulled the blanket over her and looked at her innocent face. She was just staring at me without saying anything, I don’t want to ask her why she left because I know why she did that, but the look on her face clearly indicated to me that she was expecting me to ask her that. 

 

I smiled at her while stroking her soft curly hair, “I want you to promise me something, April!” I said while smiling at her. She didn’t say anything, just stared at me, but I continued, “I want you to promise me...no matter what happens... you should not leave me nor this mansion” I asked while extending my hand towards her, her innocent eyes moved to my palm and back to me.   

 

She slowly nodded her head and placed her small palm on mine, “Promise,” she said in her adorable voice. I smiled at her while kissing her knuckles, “Good girl,” I said while pulling her towards me. 

 

***

I woke up feeling sun rays falling on my face while blinking my eyes. I glanced down at April, who was sleeping peacefully in my arms. She looks adorable while sleeping, I always loved to be with children, they bring out the best in you and makes you forget all your worries. I wish to have my own kids in the future if I ever fall in love and marry someone, but I know it won’t happen any soon. 

 

I sighed and got up from the bed without waking her up, I did my morning routines and got dressed. I walked towards the still sleeping April and placed a kiss on her forehead before walking out the room closing the door behind. I strolled into the kitchen and saw the butler putting everything in the trolley, he turned around and began moving it out of the kitchen. 

 

“Is it for Arthur?” I asked while stopping him,

 

“Yes, mam” he replied, I smiled at him, “Let me take it,” I said while taking it from him. He just nodded his head and walked back to the kitchen. I made my way to his room, after whatever happened yesterday. I don’t want to talk to him or even look at him, but I have no other choice. I’m basically living in his house and I have signed the contract willingly. I can’t ignore him even if he does awful things to me. 

 

I knocked on the door and waited for him to reply, “Come in,” came his deep voice from the other side. I took a deep breath and pushed the door open, As I stepped inside the room, I saw him standing on his balcony and looking outside. 

 

I pushed the trolley towards the sitting area at the balcony and began placing everything down. After I set his breakfast, I moved back “Your breakfast,” I said while staring down at my feet. I could feel his gaze on me, but I didn’t look up at him. 

 

I saw his feet moving, which made my heart beat rapidly against my ribcage, He walked towards me and stared down at me, Calm down, Davina, Don’t look at him, I chatted inside my head and just stared at his feet and didn’t allow myself to look at his eyes. I was feeling nervous all of a sudden under his gaze, I swallowed hard and try to control myself.
