CHAPTER 4. A NIGHT WITH THE BILLIONAIRE'S SON.

The next day, I didn't have to go to work. I rested at home, helped my mom with the house chores, walked my brother to school, then I spent the rest of the day sleeping and reading.

I woke up the next morning earlier than expected. I prepared my brother for school and thereafter, I went to the mansion. The security man unlocked the gate for me as usual. “You're too early today” He spoke as he checked his wristwatch.

“I know. I'm just trying to make up for the other day” I responded, walking away.

Nathan and Noah were still in bed when I walked in. I didn't bother them. I looked around, the house was a bit disordered. I did some cleaning and mopping, then I went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Nathan was the first to wake up.

“Good morning” I greeted.

“Good morning” he yawned, rubbing his eyes. His hair looked messy and swollen eyes, but he still managed to look gorgeous.

“By the way, can you please make that delicious spaghetti of yours again?” Nathan asked.

“Bianca is coming over this afternoon, and she begged me to ask you prepare it once again” he quickly added.

I tried to recall who Bianca was, then it dawned to me that he was referring to his girlfriend. I felt the urge to ask him if they were still together, but I let it side anyway.

“Sure, I mean, it's my job” I responded, then he mouthed a “thank you” and walked away.

I made spaghetti for lunch as ordered. We waited patiently for Bianca to arrive before we started eating.

“I'm sorry for being late” Bianca apologized as soon she stepped into the dinning table.

“It's okay babe. We just had to wait for you before we started eating” Nathan said as she went over to sit beside Nathan, then she brushed a kiss on his lips.

“Can we just start eating already and save the kissing and smooching for later?” Noah pleaded as everyone laughed.

The rest of the lunch continued in silence, but I would randomly stare at Nathan. They were doing the couple's things of feeding off each other and all that. Noah, on the other hand, didn't care that much as he was engrossed with his phone.

As for the rest of the day, there wasn't much to do. I spoke to my mom for a while, then I decided to finish my book. Everyone was minding their businesses; Nathan and Bianca spent time together in his room, Noah was still busy with his phone and I assumed he was texting his boyfriend or something, while me, on the other hand, sat on the couch reading.

“Let's go swimming, guys” Bianca suggested. She was always the first to recommend something fun to do whenever the house was boring. She was already wearing a bikini while Nathan stood next to her. Her hair tied in a messy ponytail, her skin looked flawless, and she was effortlessly beautiful.

“A minute!” Noah dropped his phone and got up, then he walked to his room.

“How about you, Liliana? You should join us, it is always fun” Bianca asked.

“I can't swim please, but I'll come watch you guys” I babbled. She shrugged then walked away.

I sat on a bench watching them. They seemed to be having a good time. Noah swam to me and asked why I didn't want to join them.

“I can't swim, and I'm scared of drowning” that was my response.

Then, he offered to teach me, but I declined his offer.

“C'mon girl! Please” Bianca pleaded.

“I don't have a bikini”

Bianca got out of the water, dried her hair with a towel, went back inside and came outside minutes later with a bikini. She cornered me on one side, far away from the boys, and handed me the bikini. I quickly undressed and wore the bikini.

“Wow… Green looks so good on you”

“Thank you” I smiled.

We walked back to the boys. Nathan's eyes met mine, I looked away shyly, but he still continued to stare at me that I began to feel embarrassed.

After minutes of training and practice, I was beginning to get the whole swimming process. It was fun and lively, but all through, Nathan didn't speak to me, I was beginning to wonder if we were good. I watched him as he got out of the pool and sat on the bench.

Bianca's phone rang, then she got out of the pool to get the phone, but since Nathan was sitting next to it, he stretched a hand to grab it. His facial expression switched to a frown when he saw the caller. She rushed to him and got the phone from him and stared at the caller too for a while.

“I can explain, babe” She said as she held his hands, but he jerked them off.

“All these while, you're still seeing Elvis behind my back?” He glowered at her.

“I'm sorry, I can explain. Just let me”

“Have you been sleeping around with Elvis again?” Nathan asked. She looked down. She didn't say a word.

“I thought as much” and with that, he walked back inside while she followed him.

"Don't they ever get tired of quarreling and fighting?” I whispered to Noah.

“I don't know. Well, I am used to their fighting” Noah replied nonchalantly.

I was still drying my hair when Bianca came to me and informed me she'll be leaving.

Throughout the day, Nathan locked himself inside his room and refused to come out. Noah tried to talk him out of the room to at least even eat, but Nathan ignored him.

“How often does this happen?” I asked Noah calmly. I was beginning to feel sorry for Nathan.

“Often… These people have been together for almost a year, and she keeps hurting my brother.” Noah paused for a while.

“He doesn't listen. He's so blindfolded by her love, and she keeps hurting him. I've talked to my brother about leaving her ass, but he wouldn't listen to me” He continued.

“Ohh”

It was already time to leave for home, but I still had to prepare dinner before leaving anyway. Nathan hadn't left his room since that incident, and I was worried already. I watched Noah eat in silence, but the dinning table was incomplete with Nathan.

After dinner, I knocked on Nathan's door with a tray of food.

“Go away, Liliana!” He yelled from inside.

“No. You know the reason your mom employed me here, right?” I responded, but there was no reply.

“To take care of you. Please let me do my job," I spoke softly.

Minutes later of waiting patiently, he finally opened the door, he looked so sad. I walked in and placed the tray on the bed. His room smelt of liquor, obviously he's been drinking too much.

“My head hurts a lot” He laid back on the bed. I placed a hand on his neck to check his temperature.

“Holy cow!” I exclaimed.

I ran back to the kitchen, got some water into a basin and a clean towel, then I helped him pull off his shirt as I slowly laid his back on the bed, so he was staring at the ceiling.

Furthermore, I carefully mopped his body slowly, he was already shivering. This was the first time I was this close to his face. I paused for a while, staring at his gorgeous face, and I wondered why Bianca would cheat on someone like Nathan.

Afterward, I got up and took a painkiller from his drawer, popped it open and handed it alongside a glass of water to him to swallow, then he ate his dinner.

“Alright, the headache should subside in no time. I will be going home, it's already late” I said as I got up.

“Don't go, please. Stay with me tonight” Nathan begged. He grabbed my hand, I flinched.

“Please!” He pleaded again. I inhaled in and out as I thought for a while before I agreed, then I contacted my mom, informing her I'll be spending the night at Nathan's.
