Chapter 83

The next day. Quinn came to the house to his nephew and I wondered if he left the house by six aim and what time he went to pick up his nephew,
He came way early to the house.
Junior, his nephew bonded with Moon immediately and he even made Moon ask Quing to bring him down when he ran into Quinn’s hands for a
The child acted like an adult and although it was overwhelming at times, 1 liked that he could stand up for himself even though his parents were not with him. And I was happy that he got along with Moon.
With both of them being friends, Moon would be bold andl learn how to defend himself even when I’m not there. I needed my son to be bold art. fearless and able to protect himself without sering me or Grandma Mira and the new friendship with Quirin’s intelligent nephew would make that
1 quickly called Terry after waiting for him to show up for sour hours now and from his voice, I could tell that he was still on the bed. I sighed in frustration. What a trend I have
He probably overslept from the stress of the previous day.
I asked Junior if he would love some waffles but he looked at me with an arched brow,
“Waffles are appetizers, not food that real men eat. I heard you’re a good chef from my man Quinn. He said, slightly bending his head to touch Quinn’s hand
Quinns face hardened at this but I had known him enough to know that there was nothing he could do about it. He was stuck with Junior and the earlier he got used to it, the better and quicker they would bond. But I wasn’t sure that he wanted to bond with junior.
“I love for you to make me a nice meal, one of your special meals if you can, I’d love to taste your food. I don’t believe anything my Uncle says. I’m not saying you’re not a good chef. I’m just saying, I want to taste and confirm it myself. He spoke to me but he looked at Quinn with an amusing expression like he was making fun of him but in a mature way
“My mom’s food is the best you’ll have, trust me Moon chirped with excitement but junior nodded and patted him on his shoulder as if to calm him down and tell him to let him taste it himself.
“That would be extra work for me but I’ll see what I can do for you,” I replied with a smile and turned to leave but Quinn called me back.
Please can you make that two plates?” I almost laughed at this but I smiled instead and nodded at his words.
I made some French toast with scrambled eggs, some sausages, slightly glazed sweet cherry tomatoes and some baked beans,
Junior’s eyes widened when I brought the meal.
I supposed to rat this? It’s so beautiful that I feel like I’m doing something bad eating it. He said with a cute pout and I laughed loudly.
yours for mysel
“You better eat it fast ‘cause if I finish mine before you, I’m taking yours
myself, Quinn warned with a mouthful of French toast.
Moon watted some wattles and apple slices and I gave that to him as well. Though his eyes were on the French toasts, he had been disturbing me throughout thr werk to make hum wattles and eggs for breakfast but I have been so busy.
at your judgment. Mr. Judge!” I asked with my hands behind me like a chef waiting for her judges to pass judgment.
I said before, it’s not like I doubted that you are a good cook… can I have more?” He cut himself short and we all laughed at this.
Soon after they fuushed rating. Terry anised and they were soon on their way, not before I teased him a bit for sleeping too late of course.
Theylch and I went to the restauran. It was the weekend and I knew that we would be choked that say.
After a long day at work, I got home late and Moon was already asleep Claire had put him to sleep and she had gone home too. I met Grandma Mira wati lung her favorite show, ale had been sleeping throughout the day, courtesy of the sleeping medications she took so she was wide awake. We rachanged greetings and I went straight to my ro
to my room and slumped into the bed but then it struck me, I hadn’t checked my emails in like
Lipuickly went through my email and I saw a message from who I suspected to be one of Quinut’s partners. He had told me that he would arrange a meeting with them and get back to me so it had to da it
The email came with the tide of the event which Quin mentioned when speaking to me about it, the venue and the time.
1/2
Ely tyes widened when I saw the date. “Monday?” I groaned and slumped into the bed again.
1 had barely survived the weekend, another meeting was waiting to be attended
I let the tiredness I felt take over me and I slowly drifted to dreamland.
woke up
feeling better but I needed more sleep. I went to make a hot cup of coffee so I would wake up fully and face the day.
Ighed countless times thinking about how hectic the day would be for me. I wanted this anyway and now I had to bear with the stress that with it
After breakfast. I left the house. Moon was still asleep. I wished I was in his position, where I could just sleep and wouldn’t have need to wake up.
The office was wide and pretty decent, it had modern tables and chairs and the men in question looked cool as well.
Quinn arrived shortly after I senled on my seat and the meeting commenced. I wondered if he would still be available for the project because offin hand and it was as though the men read my thoughts, they asked him if he would be able to still handle the project as they could put someone else on it and he replied with enthusiasm.
He assured them that he would be able to travel with the hand and that it wouldn’t be a problem since he had his team working with him.
I wondered if the job was worth it that much that he was willing to sacrifice his rest for, he already had the wealth and if he chose not to do the project, it wouldn’t make him go bankrupt.
It sounded to
to me like he had another reason to want to do the project.
That being none of my business, I pushed it aside and focused on the meeting and when we were done, he offered that I drive him to my restaurant. It was unlike Quinn to come for a meeting as serious as this and not bring his car or Fleur along with him but this time around, he came alone and came to meet me to drive him to the restaurant.
I was reluctant at first but then he shoved his wounded hand to the front for me to see and I remembered that he sustained the injury because of Grandma Mira, my heart softened and I opened the door for him.
