Hunter's POV
"Are you okay, Mr.Divenson?" I can hear Calixto's voice behind me as I stared at the scenery below; my office was on the top floor of the Divenson building that is why the view of my office always fascinates me, especially at night, the glittering of lights made me feel relax even though how tired I am during the day. It is the same with our mansion. The Divenson mansion is on top of a hill and so far away from the busy metropolis, and during night time we can see the beautiful city lights.
"Why do you ask me that kind of question, Calixto?" I asked as I turn around to look at him.
"I noticed you are not in the mood today, you were so grumpy this morning, and even until now, I can tell there is something that bothering you," Cal said, and I realized he really knows me.
"Yeah, you are right, Cal, I am angry, and I want to punch someone," I replied, and I can see the stunned expression on his face, and I wanted to laugh because I can tell he was afraid of me, and it seems he thought I am going to hit him.
"Who made you so furious, Sir?" He asked softly, and I know I need to tell someone or else I will lose my mind, and I know I can trust Calixto because he knew almost all my secrets, and I am confident that I can trust him.
"Relax, Calixto, even though so many times you disappoint me but never in my life that I want to punch you." I said, and I can see that he relaxed himself.
"My brother, Parker, almost hurt Maddie, and I am so angry with him that he disrespected me; I couldn't believe my brother will do this to me, Cal." I said and let out a heavy sighed, and I can see how his facial expression changed, and he looked so worried now, and sometimes I thought Calixto is Madeline's father and not Frank.
"Really? How's Maddie? Is she hurt?" He asked me.
"No, she is fine, Cal, I was very thankful that I arrived on time to save her, and if not, I couldn't forgive myself." I said, and he smiled widely at me.
"I am glad you are now showing your true feelings for Madeline." He said, and I can't stop myself from scowling, and this time I can't tell Cal how I feel for Maddie because even me is not sure of myself. I know I am trying my best to stay away from her as possible, but I can never stop my heart from feeling this way towards Madeline. I can't deny she makes me feel so much alive, and I want to take a chance on her.
"Cal, I told you to stop believing that I will fall for Madeline because it will never happen. I can tell you like Maddie for me, but you know the drill because you are the only person who knew about the actual reason why Ms. Brownwood is staying in our mansion." I declared.
"If that is the case, why did you picked her up yourself in Magnolia Village when you can order me to fetch Madeline, and if you don't care about her, how could you explain to me why do you need to stay overnight in the Villa that you bought in Magnolia Village?" He responded, and I gave him a hard stare.
"Do you want me to fire you, Calixto?" I asked.
"On what grounds? Because you realized what I have said were all true?" He asked, and I know he feels so confident that I won't fire him.
"I don't need any grounds to fire you because I am your boss, and I can pay you a good amount of money." I declared, and he cocked his head.
"For how many times you told me you would fire me, but it never happens because you need me, Mr. Divenson, but you don't need to worry because all your secrets are safe with me." He answered, and I can't stop myself from shaking my head.
"You better get back to your table now, Cal." I said, and he excused himself and got outside my office. Calixto was right after what happened. I felt so worried about Madeline's safety, and I am glad Roman informed me that Gina is in Divenson mansion already, or I will never feel at ease. I cancel my last appointment of the day. After all, I want to arrive at the estate before dinner because I want to see Madeline. I told my dad that I want Parker to stay in one of our properties in the city, and he can only come back on our wedding day. I threatened Parker if he will not follow my request, I will not hesitate to file a case against him.
I did not expect that when I arrived at the mansion, I can witness that my dear mother said mean words to Madeline and also my sister Charlotte. I felt so disappointed that it was not only Parker who made Maddie's stay in our mansion miserable, almost all of them, and now I can tell only my little sister welcomed Maddie genuinely in our home. And I realized I was not the only reason why Madeline ran away. They never treated her nicely, and I can tell my father was also doing the same because I can see the hatred in his eyes as he stared at Maddie's beautiful face. I didn't listen to my mom's plea as we leave in the mansion, and I felt so glad that I decided to eat our dinner in the city because I make Lily so delighted.
"Lily, tonight is your night because you welcome Madeline into our home warmly, and I felt so happy about it. That is why your wish is my command." I said to my sister as we eat our dinner, and her face lit up, and she asked me immediately if we could watch a movie, and I can't say no to her.
Days passed, and I felt relieved that Charlotte stayed in Kaye's house and my father is busy with his new business ventures. I know he still wants to run the mining company, but after what happened, he realized he would not touch our mining business, and he asked me to finance his new business, and I can't say no. He told me we should give my brother a chance to run the new company, which I wanted for a long time. It is about time for Parker to show his abilities, and I know my brother has potential, but right now, I am still furious with him, and I know it will take a long time before I can finally forgive him. Even though I evicted him from the house, he still reports to his office every day.
It is Saturday, and I already informed Gina she can have her day off during weekends, and I can tell she left the mansion early because I didn't see her car in the garage during my early jog this morning. I changed my fitness attire into casual shorts and a t-shirt, and before I can get outside my room, I heard a loud knock, and I am surprised to see my sister standing in front of my door with her hands on her hips, and she looks so mad at me.
"Good morning to you, Lily!" I greeted her, and I can tell she is upset with me by looking at her face.
"Do you know what day is today is?" She asked.
"Yes, it is Saturday, and why do you ask, my dear?" I replied, and I can't stop my curiosity.
"Hunter, how could you forget?" She asked.
"About what?" I asked in return, and she stomped her feet, and she looked so adorable right now.
"We will go fishing with Madeline!" She exclaimed.
"Oh, I am sorry, Lily, you know I am a busy person, and I forgot to tell my secretary to put it on my calendar so she could remind me.
"Hunter, I am your sister, and Madeline is your fiancee, and you don't need to put us in your calendar because we are a family member, not one of your clients, and don't make a promise if you can't keep it because it will make you a bad person." She said and turned her heels away from me, and I am controlling my laughter because I don't what her to hear me laughing at her because of the way she talks. Lily is remarkable.
"Hey, Lily, wait up, please!" I yelled, and I am glad she stopped walking, but she didn't turn her head to look at me, and I can tell my sister hates
me right now. I move closer to her, and I put my hands on her shoulders, and I slowly turn her around so she will be face to face with me.
"I only said, I forgot about the fishing thing because of my busy schedule, but I didn't say we could not go, and it is still very early, Lily, kindly go to Madeline's room and tell her we will go fishing." I said, and she smiled widely at me, and turned around, and ran in the hallways in going to Maddie's room. I prepare the fishing equipments that we need including our food.
"Hey!" I said the moment I picked them at Maddie's room, and I can't stop myself from staring at Madeline's beautiful face.
"Hi, good morning, Hunter." Maddie replied, and even her voice sounds beautiful to my ears, and I can tell she feels conscious as I continue to give her my intense stares.
"It is indeed a beautiful morning, Madeline." I said in more than a whisper because I can't control the racing of my heart when Madeline is looking at me the same way I am staring at her.
"Hunter, stop gazing at Madeline's face, we need to go now before the sun will go up." Lily said, and that is the time I stop looking at Maddie, and I can tell I blushed. But it didn't stop me from holding Madeline's hand, and I can feel the electricity that travels from my fingertips to my toes.. And I felt so excited to spend my entire day with Madeline and Lily, and I will try my best to make this fishing day extra special, and I realized I want to spend time alone with Madeline when I caught her stealing glances at me, and I can tell she feels the same way too.
