Chapter 5 - 5: You two had kissed? (Revised)

\'There\'s an intercom next to the light switch on the wall, if you need something, don\'t hesitate to press it,\' Anders said with a friendly smile.

Daniella nodded and entered the room, before closing the door, she looked at Anders instructing a maid.

She signed and gently closed the door. Her eyes roamed around the four walls of the room and a silent gasp let out from her lips seeing how organized and neat it was.

The room was almost the same size as her studio apartment. In the center, there\'s a queen-size bed covered with cream sheets. A blanket with the same style of the pillows was on the bed.

An indescribable feeling rose in her chest when she felt the same feeling she has whenever she arrives in her apartment, the feeling that she\'s part of it like this is her home.

She rattled her head to remove the thought and walked towards the door she found to her right.

As she opened it, a medium-size clean bathroom and a bathtub have made her lips to part with excitement, her eyes shone with happiness like first time kid in the playground.

She immediately turned the water on to fill the tub and removed her clothes. She looked around the bathroom and found a blue towel on the shelves. She was about to pick it up when she heard someone knocking on the door.

She wrapped the towel around her n.a.k.e.d body and walked with heavy feet towards the door. Her face scrunched up with annoyance as she thought of a person that has the nerve to disturb her.

She opened the door, and her eyes caught Evan looking down on her. When she raised her head to look at him, she then realized how short she is.

\'What is it?\' she asked in annoyance.

\'Did I disturb you?\' he innocently asked, still face so cold as ice.

Daniella took in a deep breath and plucked her lips.

\'Disturb?\' she laughed sacastically and shook her head.

\'Are you serious?\' she continued.

Evan didn\'t respond, he just stared at her face with no emotion.

Knowing that Evan didn\'t understand her sarcasm, Daniella sighed and decided to be honest.

\'Mr. Su. You stopped me from sending that asshole to hell and now you interrupted my shower. I should have been on the plane now but no, you have to show up and stop me. Now, I am standing in front of you with a towel over my body and you, oh my god! - you\'re asking me if you\'re disturbing me?\' she suddenly burst all of her frustration. She\'s hungry and tired, all she wanted was to lay on the bed with a full stomach.

\'You seems upset Ms. Chen,\' he said in a robotic tone. And Daniella doesn\'t know whether he\'s faking it or not but his face was like a five-year-old boy looking at his mother and wondering why he\'s getting scolded.

Daniella\'s shoulder slumped in defeat, she clearly underestimated his level of understanding.

\'No, Mr. Su. What do you want,\' she cried for help in her mind, hoping for someone to take the man away from her.

\'You forgot to sign the contract,\' saying that, Evan showed her the folder she dropped earlier in the study room, he handed it to her together with a pen.

Daniella took it and signed it quickly. When she gave it back to him and looked into his eyes, she saw the confusion over his face.

\'What?\' she asked.

\'You haven\'t read everything,\' he replied.

\'No need. All I have to do is to look after that spoiled brat for a year, right? That\'s all I need to know," before he could reply, she rudely close the door and removed her towel as she ran towards the bathroom.

When Daniella closed the door, Evan\'s eyebrow creased by her attitude. He just came to check if she\'s fine with the room but after seeing her with a towel around her body, all he could say was that she needed to sign the contract.

His eyes lowered to her signature on the paper, he sighed and thought of discussing the contract to her later, after dinner. He was not sure if she had read it carefully, but the contract says, she needs to be around Selena all the time which means she needs to live with them.

His lips twitched as he thought of her behavior, wondering if she will be a good or bad influence to his niece.

Time past and the sun has finally set.

In the dining room, Evan was sitting with Selena at the long wooden rectuangle table. Maids were busy serving food while the two were sitting comfortably.

Kirby emerged from the living room with folders in his hand. He was about to speak when a vanilla scent past him.

His eyebrow creased and immediately, his head turned to the scent source. He found Daniella in a lavender knee lenght dress walking towards Evan.

\'Anders said you\'ve asked for me?\' he heard her saying casually, her voice was low and soft, enough to make anyone turn their attention at her.

\'Yes, will you please take a seat,\' Kirby heard his boss talking in a cold voice, his face was looking emotionless at Daniella.

Kirby\'s head tilted in confusion, he knows his boss as he has been on his side since he took over the company and that was seven years ago, he was just an intern back then. And to his experience, his boss was usually calm but right now, he\'s seemed to be tensed.

He was about to speak when Selena has quickly grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the table. She abruptly pushed him to sit on the chair and asked one of the maids to serve him food.

Kirby sighed in defeat, knowing Selena, she wouldn\'t allow him to leave with an empty stomach.

In the other side, Selena\'s face screwed after seeing her newly babysitter, Daniella looks so pretty in her lavender dress and that\'s enough to ruin her appetite, she\'s glad Kirby came or else she would have eaten her dinner in her room.

When Selena saw Daniella sitting next to her uncle, she slammed both of her hands on the table and angrily got up, her face reddened in pissed as she glared at Daniella.

\'Are you not my babysitter? Why are you eating with us?\' she irritably said.

Daniella just looked at her, a faint smile was on her lips. Selena stared into Daniella\'s eyes, she should feel insulted by her sneer but instead, her skin crawled after seeing her brown eyes turning into green. She gulped repeatedly, her hands started shaking in fear.

(What\'s wrong with her eyes?) she blinked twice to make sure she isn\'t seeing things but she was right, Daniella\'s eyes magically turned from brown to green.

With her voice stuttering, Selena spoke with exasperation, hiding her fear, \'What are you looking at? Didn\'t you hear me? You shall eat your dinner after your employer. You\'re getting paid to-\' she was cut off by her uncle. When she turned to Evan, she saw dark shadows underneath his eyes.

\'Selena,\' her uncler called out her name in a frigid way. She saw that he was about to continue when Daniella held Evan\'s hand, stopping him.

Daniella got up, her stomach has been grumbling after a long bath, and yet the moment she arrived in the dining area, Evan\'s cold face and a whining spoiled brat were the first things she saw.

When she sat down earlier, all she wanted was to dig in and shove all the food in her mouth but she\'s at the stranger\'s house. She can\'t act like she owned the place.

So, she patiently waited for someone to pick up the utensil and start but instead, a spoiled brat ordering her to eat later was spoiling her mood.

She\'s been saying to herself to calm and not to ruin the fease on the table by murdering this family, the last thing she wanted was to waste the food so, she decided to take a deep breath and let her whine but the girl just wouldn\'t stop.

After hearing that her dinner will to be delayed, Daniella has lost her patience.

She held Evan\'s hand to stop him from talking and decided to deal with the brat herself.

As she walked towards Selena with her stomach grumbling in hunger, Daniella took the steak knife on the table.

Her lips pressed in rage. When she had finally reached the girl\'s chair, she furiously pulled her up by grabbing her arm, hauled her petite body and hardly pinned her against the wall.

Daniella slammed one of her palms on the wall, not far from Selena\'s neck while the other – holding the knife – swirled the knife on her knuckles like she was playing with a pen.

Daniella could see the fear in Selena\'s eyes, she leaned closer to her right ear and whispered, \'Don\'t ever order me again, especially when I am hungry,\'

Selena swallowed hard, Daniella\'s voice was even colder and scarer than her uncle.

Daniella continued, \'I am stuck with you just as much you are stuck with me. So let\'s make our life easy.\'

Selena tensely nodded, she\'s afraid that if she disagrees, Daniella might slash her neck with a knife.

\'Good, now, do what I tell you and I will help you get close with Kirby, deal?\'

Daniella\'s proposal has made her heart skipped a beat, she doesn\'t know how Daniella found out about her secret crush to Kirby but just the thought of spending more time with Kirby really excites her.

\'What about uncle?\' she worriedly asked. She has been trying to get close to Kirby but, her uncle kept on ruining her plans. When all she wanted to do was just to be close to him and get to know him.

\'Don\'t worry. I\'ll handle him, so, deal?\' Daniella asked her once again.

Selena nodded and after that, Daniella gave her space. She sighed in relief, she really thought that tonight was her last day, Daniella really scared her.

\'Can I call you Auntie?\' she stuttered as she asked.

Daniella irritatedly looked at her, a line appreared in between her eyebrows.

\'Do I look like someone who would marry your uncle\' Daniella suddenly shouted at her, pointing a finger at Evan.

\'Well, I have another uncle,\' Selena whispered.

\'We can talk about it later but, no, don\'t call me Auntie even if I marry your uncle - the other uncle ok?\'

Selena

obediently nodded, thinking that maybe, her father\'s cousin could be used to distract her new babysitter

After that, she saw Daniella\'s expression softened, then she decided to ask about the knife.

\'Were you really planning to use that knife on me if I don\'t agree with you?\'

Daniella looked at her, seems to be puzzled by her question.

\'This Knife?\' Daniella asking to confirm, lifting the knife in the air.

\'Oh! I don\'t have a knife for my steak. Oh my! Did you think I will stab you?\' there was a silent gasp of surprise let out from Daniella\'s mouth, but Selena could see that it was fake.

\'Don\'t worry darling, I don\'t want to ruin my steak by murdering you. Anyway, will you please change your clothes? Your body must have been sweating under that snake-skin dress.\'

Selena lowered her sight to her dress, she\'s wearing a tight mini dress, it was made from the skin of snakes and Daniella was right, her body was indeed sweating under her dress, specifically her legs.

\'But, I like this dress,\' she replied.

Daniella\'s face went flat, annoyed by her reply.

\'Selena, I am your babysitter, not your pimp so change your clothes before I slash it with my steak knife and let Kirby see your undeveloped body,\' Daniella\'s threatening voice has shivered Selena\'s body. She took a step back and rushed out of the room to change her clothes but even though she had left the dining area, she could still hear Daniella\'s voice, saying, \'Throw that snake dress. Don\'t wear clothes made from animals. Understood?\'

Selena stopped from walking and turned to face the living room, aside from here, there was no one around but since the door in the dining room was opened, she was able to hear Daniella\'s voice.

\'What do you want me to wear? Leaves?\' she sarcatically replied. She likes wearing clothes from animals, they are comfortable and in-style.

\'Sure, be like Eve\'

Selena just shook her head by Daniella\'s reply. She would have had liked her if it\'s not for her attitude. Daniella was acting too manly for her as if she was not a lady.

She decided to change her clothes, she doesn\'t want to miss the oppurtunity to dine with Kirby tonight.

After some time, Selena had come back. She sat on the chair she had earlier and looked at Daniella, the woman was eating her steak, and seems like she\'s enjoying it.

When she turned to her uncle, the man was busy tapping on his phone, his utensils were on the plate, pointing at 3\' o clock, indicating that he had finished the food.

\'Mr. Su, people are still eating. Please put your phone down, it\'s rude,\' Selena wanted to laugh when Daniella has suddenly scolded her uncle.

\'It\'s a business. I need to reply,\' her uncle replied back.

Selena just pressed her lips, preventing herself from laughing. Her hands picked up the utensils and start cutting her – now cold steak.

\'Then answer it outside. Do you want Selena to use her phone while eating?\'

Evan sighed and put his phone back into his pocket.

\'Fine. Are you happy?\'

\'Very.\'

Selena was skeptical by her uncle\'s reply. Her great grandparents have been trying to stop him from using his phone during dinner but her uncle wouldn\'t listen to them and somehow her newly-hired babysitter was able to tame her beast-coldhearted uncle.

In the other side, Daniella was pissed by Evan\'s rudeness. She was rude herself but when it comes to food, she wants everyone to focus and enjoy it. She stayed with the nuns for some years before moving to London, and at the convent, she was taught to cherish the food and appreciate every crumb of the bread, piece of rice and drop of water. So, when she saw Evan leaving a chunk of meat, she could not help but be pissed.

(Rich people huh!) she sighed and turned to Selena, the girl was timidly eating her food. Selena\'s gradual stares at Kirby didn\'t escape her sight, her head shook, astounded by the view.

When Selena looked into her eyes, Daniella winked at her, remembering the promised she made earlier.

She quickly finished up her food and wiped her mouth, then she turned at Kirby, the man has just finished his food.

\'So, Kirby, how long have you been working with Evan?\' she curiosly asked.

\'Since I was fifteen so around seven years. I used to help my dad since he was the head of the Financial and one day, Evan saw me and decided to take me as his assistant\' Kirby politely replied.

\'Oh! So you\'re what, 22?\' she asked, confirming his age.

\'Yes,\'

\'You have a girlfriend?\' Daniella straightforwardly asked.

Kirby almost choked on his water by Daniella\'s frank manners. He put the glass back on the table and looked at her, eyes were confused.

\'No,\' he evetually said.

He heard Selena laughing by his side, he turned with his eyebrows creasing in perplexity.

\'Oh! you\'re just like your boss then,\' Daniella blurted without consideration.

Evan - who has been queit waiting for everyone to finish their food, suddenly turned to Daniella, expression remained cold.

\'Who said I don\'t have a girlfriend?\' he irritably asked.

Daniella looked at him with a flat face, \'Well, first, you don\'t know how to open a door for a lady. Second, you don\'t have a woman photo in your study room and lastly, you\'re too cold,\' the last words were almost a whisper, which only Evan could hear.

Evan stayed staring at Daniella, eyes narrowing in frustration, wondering if she\'s pissing him off in purpose so he would cancel the contract and continue with her previous plan.

Then, he sneered, alluring eyes were staring at her, drowning her.

\'I know what you are trying to do, and it\'s not going to work. Look, I am not interested in women like you. I am just skeptical why would you have a hidden knife on her leg,\' he was leaning to her direction, whispering those words which only Daniella could hear.

Daniella\'s narrowed eyes turned from her last piece of steak to Evan, \'Mr. Su, not all women is interested in you. You will never be my type,\' she sized him up and rolled her eyes on him.

Evan smirked, with the same low tone, he replied, \'Really?\'

\'Yes,\' she replied.

\'Well, you can say what you want Ms. Chen, but the kiss we shared-\'

\'Hey! You kissed me first!\' Daniella shouted, cutting him out. And the moment those words had let out from her lips, all the people in the dining, including the maids who were busy filling the water in the glass – have had their eyes swelled in shock, staring at her.

Out of nowhere, Selena\'s voice broke the deafening quietness in the dining room.

\'You two had kissed?\'
