Behind the self-made billionaire that Roman Hendricks was, what the world never got to witness was the man who, five ago years, got abandoned by the love of his life after they had their first children. The nonexistent list of what Roman had learned to give a damn about got narrowed down to just his kids and work affairs. Asides these, nothing else mattered. Until she came along. Desperate not to get kicked out of college, Rose Turner began to search for a job to cover her bills and pay her debts. With the support of her sweet as hell boyfriend, she finally lands a babysitting job for the children of intimidating and drop-dead gorgeous business tycoon, Roman Hendricks. However, Rose knows she's ruined when everything about this demanding man invites her in more than it should. With passion comes feelings, a burning desire and one angry boyfriend.
It's nonetheless refreshing daylight in the early afternoon right center of California, Rose could be viewed inside the yellow painted cab which drove at quite an intense speed to her destination.
"Driver. Can you take it slow, please?" Her tiny sweet mellifluous voice requested over to the driver who simply nods in response.
"Yes, ma'am!"
Rose heaved out a long breath she had no fucking idea she was holding; although it was obvious and noticeable that she was still extremely nervous about the job she's striping for right now.
On the contrary, She barely had no other choice than to take down the sole path which could fetch her some reasonable amount of money she wanted for her needs. Her bills.
Shifting her eyes from the driver's perch to the cab window, she could glimpse the miscellaneous cars; ascending and descending on the highway to their fates.
The daily lives of humans sometimes are quite unforeseen but yet, anticipated.
Getting to a bustling traffic hold up, Rose snapped her eyes to the driver who groaned grudgingly with his fists slamming harshly on the car steering.
"What's going on? it's just traffic. Sir," she found herself saying to him, but it sounded more she's alleviating the quite aged man.
"I know, but I dislike traffic. But actually, I had only vented out my emotion because I have someplace particularly crucial to get on to that's why I'm seething angrily," the driver answered calmly, he swerved his head rear to lend her a quick glimpse on the pretty lady behind him.
He was captivated, mesmerized by the extreme beau the woman possessed in her stance.
"Oh," simply mouthed Rose, she gawked back to the cab window and saw a few of the people stepping out from their various cars to have a quick gaze ahead of them.
A few of them have to maintain these annoying and disappointing mugs on their countenances, it comes across everyone is sure has radical significant things to put up with one way or the other similarly like her.
She has something important to take care of too, for instance; going to the Hendricks mansion in search of a job of which she had no idea if she would be employed.
It's not like she wanted this but it was for the best, she's got some college fees to compensate and some practical bills to take care of.
Her boyfriend, Daniel. Had earlier offered several job opportunities to assist her one way other. However, she dropped off the kind gesture of the young decent man.
Specifically, she doesn't want to be a burden on someone. She solely wishes to be independent on her own just like she has always existed since she was a Lil gal.
And presently one of the intense challenges she's gonna encounter in her life is here, hovering all over her like a gum; it's only left if she would successfully pass the bridge when she eventually gets there or not.
"I'm just a few minutes away oh lord, I hope this works," the inaudible words getaways from her lips underneath her gust as she recalls how it all turned on...
A babysitting job had miraculously appeared on the internet yesternight while she scrolled desperately on her Instagram account, the assertion occurred to be posted three days ago which was slightly depressing as she had thought that the babysitting job might be taken already.
Somehow, there's a probability the young billionaire would have obtained a babysitter for his kids. Nevertheless, something striking eagerly in her mind tells her to try it out.
It was excessively persistent and here she is, adopting the route that her heart compels her to follow. She was...
"Ma'am, we have arrived!"
The broad voice drifted her snappily out of her impressions as she bucked up her head to the carrier of the tone.
"Uh? Okay!" Rose mumbled absentmindedly as she strives to gain her mentality back, her head was a Lil bit in severe disorder.
Gradually, she unlocked the door of the cab, alighting womanly out of the orifice, and jammed the door gently back to its base.
"How much is your money?" she asked, keeping ajar her black purse in an exploration of course a few dollars.
"40$ ma'am!" Came the driver's reply.
"Huh? I thought its 25$," Rose cried out, she paused for a minute to deliver a dramatic brow to the driver.
"Yeah, it is. But you see ma'am, I pursued a quicker path," the driver indicated nervously.
"I don't get your utterances, sir," Rose let out with a confusing shrug, and the driver heavily breathed out.
The young lady he hauled in his cab hadn't taken a glint of notice about his huge deed back at the traffic highway previously.
"I hadn't taken the usual path, ma'am. I put up with a shortcut leading through the boulevard that was announced to be evaded for a while. I wouldn't want to say the name cause it sounds kind of creepy and eerie to the ears," the driver revealed to Rose's instant dismay.
"What?! How could you? That was dangerous and extremely life risky. What if something had happened? Of course, I know the path, I mean... I have heard about it! How come I didn't take notice at all?" She voiced out.
A lot of criminal cases had been reported around the area; dead bodies of innocent souls being found and thieves conceding there. Gosh!
"I'm sorry, but then, you come off to lost thoughts so I didn't want to distract you from your trance," the driver apologized genuinely.
He simply executed it because the traffic was massive and he presumed it wouldn't end anytime momentarily at that time.
"Fuck!" Rose cursed with signs as she promptly rummages inside her purse, plucking out the fourth dollar he called for and handing it to the driver calmly.
"Thank you!" The driver thanked her, he made an immediate attempt to convey to her the remnant of her change. However, she shook her head in objection.
"No worries, keep it for the troubles. I don't have much but just manage this little," she said to the bewilderment of the driver.
He hurriedly thanked her wholeheartedly and blessed her before he drove off to his destination. Hmph!
Rose energetically latched her purse to its root, straighten herself up, and raised aloft grey orbs to the magnificent mansion in front of her.
"Wow!" she helplessly mugged.
