KIMBERLY

Keila, Don't you have anything to say? I ask throwing her a glare

Well, Dad! I am sorry but I think you can get another contract; Keila speaks worsening the situation

Can you listen to her speak, Kim? I just hope this duck head of yours doesn't lead you in trouble; dad threw her a pitiful glare

Hmm Dad, a confidential contract paper is not needed if you already made an over view on the contract

The issue and reason for my panic Kim is that I haven't made an overview yet; I did not even go through it for the paper arrived yesterday after the timeline contract signing and the presentation is due for Monday

If I lose this contract, it is going to be passed to another company probably JADs or FERRATI ENTERPRISE and all two companies now belongs to one person making it a good catch for Mr. Ferrati

Though unlike the acquisition, the board members will start to whisper about me being incompetent; You know how it is...he sighs.....

Are you saying that FERRATI ENTERPISE and JADs are not one? I ask confused because there are certain papers I work on at the office having the stamp of Ferrati and others JADs so I thought it just another name the company is known for

Well JADs is the company owned by the Ferrati Family while Ferrati enterprise is owned by Jace Ferrati also known as Mr. Ferrati; Keila narrates blushing pretty hard making me more confused on what exactly is making her blush but decides to wave it aside

Is the contract a hidden or official one on net? I ignore her totally for always causing troubles she cannot fix

It is hidden on net but the info was forwarded to me this morning to help me with the contract papers; Dad explains

Hmm then you will have to forward to me the briefing which was sent to you

With the information, I think I can work out an over view and make a presentation package for the contract

I will take a leave from work on Monday that way I can make the presentation myself then we shall see how it goes but I assure you Dad that "you will not lose this contract", so can you please stop panicking? I ask concerned for his health

Oh Kim! I always wonder what good I did in my past life to have a blessing in the form of you dear; Dad pulls me into a hug breathing out his frustrations

And now I want you to always keep your calm whenever storm arises as I will never let it get an inch close to you; I smile in sheer happiness

Though my childhood with Dad was snatched away, I still believe he is still that loving Dad of mine who sacrificed his Fatherly love just to give me a comfortable life

He made the biggest sacrifice of staying away from me and now that I am back, he has nothing to worry about

After the incident earlier today, Dad forwarded the document to me then I took my bath, dressed in a very comfortable pant and crock singlet revealing my pierced belly button, allowed my long hair flowing with no restrictions then headed downstairs for breakfast

*******************

After breakfast, I sit in the sitting room upstairs with my jotting book and a pen trying to figure out Dad's issue when the gate bell rang

A few hours later, I hear the gate opening horn with Keila running out of her room all smiles straightening her hair with a very informal dress on

I never noticed the rose tattooed on her cleavages which is fully exposed at the moment

I hear people walk in but focus solely on the work I took upon myself

I am trying to put two and two together when Dad taps my shoulder telling me to take my time before heading downstairs all dressed up too

It seems like it's a business thing, but if so why is Keila dressed like a call girl when she should be Dad's representative in a home business meeting

JACE

Hi Jace! Kaila smiles bashfully while blinking her eyes looking more like a doll than human

Keila has always been onto me but she and Danny just don't relate

That won't be necessary! Welcome to my home Mr. Ferrari;

Uncle Steve speaks professionally

Spare me the formalities uncle; I finally speak with a smile which Uncle Steve found rather weird for this God son of his was everything but smiles

Keila felt her world spinning as this is the first smile of his she has ever seen

Keila, can you go put on something decent as it's a business meeting; Uncle cuts her imaginations totally not smiling

Hon! give K some space, besides the boys aren't complaining, are they? Ciara butts in walking out of the kitchen with the maids setting the table for lunch

Well then why don't we head to my office for the papers signing; Uncle turns all attention to me

Hmm if you want to go through the contract then I will leave it here and Daniel can pick it up first thing tomorrow morning; I speak in utmost seriousness

Of course not; I totally trust your business strength Jace

After all signatures are made, I kept looking around just to get a glimpse of my paradise but to no avail

Daniel notices this so he smiles in sheer joy seeing a frustrated look on my face

Uncle, I don't see Kim around! Daniel asks with a grin

Playing cupid huh?

Oh! Kim is busy upstairs; she is helping me correct a defect Keila made

But Dad, it's not like she was forced; I mean I am old enough to fix my mess

Not when you have the brain of a five years old;Uncle Steve blurts out looking displeased

Hon we have visitors! I suggest you scold Keila later;

Ciara cuts in with a huge smile

Well then we shall be on our way Uncle; I smile arising from the chair

Oh Jace! With all formalities aside, my God sons will not walk through my doors and leave without lunch; Uncle Steve smiles heading to the dinning

Of course uncle! We should have lunch as it is past lunch time at home; Danny winks looking smug

Jace! Here, sit beside me. It's t been long we talked at length!; Keila blushes red

There was never a time we talked at length Keila beside I don't enjoy sitting in that angle of a dining table as it is Daniel's favorite spot, right Danny? I smirk knowingly

Of course, that is definitely my favorite spot! He gives her a tight smile

All were seated with only one seat left which was beside Jace when Steve asked a maid to call Kim down for lunch

A minute or two later, footsteps is heard coming downstairs though all were already serving their plates

You know dinner is not going to wait for you Kim; Ciara tries playing the card of a caring mum

Well I would not be late if I am not trying to fix the not so presentable mess your dear daughter made! Kim lashes out still focused on her cell phone walking towards them

JACE

Gosh! I lost track of time on seeing my Vida, my destination; to think she pierced her belly button got me hard in my pants

Gosh how can one look so natural yet beautiful?

She isn't even putting on a freaking Bra; gosh you don't know what you do to me Kim...

KIMBERLY

Dad, I will.... I tug my phone in the short pocket grabbing a seat When I come face to face with Jace

As in Jace freaking Ferrati; the man that frequents my recent dreams and prayer points...
