Chapter 54
Hunter’s POV
His eyes beamed when he realized who she was, I’m not surprised I expected him to react in a worse way.
Aha!
“Yes, your assistant that’s the name I saw in Google while searching for you,”
“Bro your assistant! Telling your mom about this means war, now I understand,”
Hmm…
“But bro, why your assistant?”
“The heart choose what to love not considering whether an assistant, maid or CEO,”
His brow crinkled up and eyes opened wide in amaze.
“Are you the one sounding like this?”
“I’m as much as I hate to admit it I love her,”
“It is obvious you do, I noticed from your countenance change, yesterday at the bar when I mentioned her,”
“You did.”
“Yes I did, and my suspicion is confirmed, you really love her,”
“I have never hear you voice out your love for any woman.”
He chuckled softly.
“Yes bro, I love this girl,”
“You know it’s not going to be an easy one with your mom and Alexis‘ parent, and you might end up putting the poor girl in trouble,”
“Exactly bro, I know how my mother can be dramatic and she will go extra miles to punish whoever goes against her will,”
“I really I’m not scared of what my mom will do to me and I don’t mind losing the company, but I don’t want to put Eden in any trouble,”
“Do you love her this much?”
“Bro, I love her,”
“What about Alexis,”
“I don’t love Alexis, at least not to the extent of marriage,”
“Huhh…bro this is going to be a difficult one,”
“But let’s take it one step at a time plus you should be taking it easy with mom, whatever turns out to be the case I will always

“You’re welcome man.”
I really wish things could be easier than they are, but it seems like it will be more difficult than I thought.
“Son!”
Anty Elena walked into the room and found us sitting in silence
“H_hey Anty,” I stuttered.
“Hello ma’am.” Andrew greeted.
“Welcome back to the country.”
“Thank you ma,”
“What is wrong with my favorite,”
“Anty apparently your favorite is in love,” Andrew winked playfully.
Her shoulders dropped and her brows raised up in surprise.
“Shh..keep it calm let no one hear
“Who is she?”
“He will give you the rest of the information,”
Andrew knew how Anty Elena is very soft and understanding that is why he didn’t hesitate to tell her the truth.
“My assistant,”
“Hmph!” She caught her breath and furrowed her brows in concentration.
A chill pricked my skin
“Yes Anty, I love my assistant,
She exhaled deeply, this is a difficult one,”
“Of all the other ladies out there, why your assistant?”
“My heart choose her,”
“The fact that she is just an assistant, a daughter of a nobody, with no known family name, will make things difficult with your mom,”
Anthony and myself nodded in agreement with what she said.
“Anty, right now I don’t care what anyone will say not even my mom’s opinion is going to stop me from been with the woman I love,”
“I have never seen you like this, but you cannot continue to go about it with anger, you know how you mother is very headed, so calm down and i will suggest you keep your relationship with the assistant a secret for now,”
“You might be ready to face your mother’s drama I’m sure the poor girl isn’t so for her sake stay calm and this information should not get to your mom and you should avoid the press from getting suspicion of you both”
“Whatever the case may turn out to be, your happiness and peace of mind is our priority and should be your priority too,” a

grin played at the corner of her mouth.
Her words were very comforting and a sense of calm settled over me.
“Thank you Anty,”
“You’re welcome,”
“Let me go and talk to your mother, you should just relax and be calm,” Anty Elena said and left the room.
“So after we departed at the bar yesterday you went to Eden’s place, huh?!”
“Yes, I did,”
“Don’t tell me you slept in her apartment,”
Η
“Does it matter where I choose to spend the night?”
“No, who dares to question an adult, a grown man at that, why he slept in his lover’s apartment?” He winked and smirked naughtily.
“This room has not changed a bit, everything is still on the position I have known them to be,”
“So what is stopping the company from starting?”
“I will be taking an interview session tomorrow with a few of the applicants I have..”
We were talking about Andrew’s logistics company when Alexis walked into the room.
“Hello Alexis,
“Andrew, hi,”
“Hello baby,”
“HI”
“I have a meeting with the event planner,”
“My birthday is in few days, I will not condone any mistakes or disappointment from them, so I have to make sure everything goes well by following up on all steps all the way,”
“You need rest, you have been working yourself up for the sake of birthday.”
“I will rest once everything goes well,”
“Andrew, I will send you the invite to my birthday, it’s in few days, better get yourself a girlfriend before then,”
“But if you fail to get a girlfriend, I can hook you up with someone,” she winked playfully
“I don’t think there will be a need for that,” he said with smiles tugged on his lips.
“Okay, I know how you used to be around women, let me not let the cat out of the bag yet until we meet again,” she teased
him.
Andrew has been the shy one when it comes to women right from the start. He is rather more comfortable in being a secret admirer and lover to women than to make his intentions known physically. I have told him countless times that he is just scared of rejection.

But as he became older he developed the gall to face his fears.
“So guys,
let me get going before I miss my meeting.”
“Bye baby,” she kissed me and left.
“Bye Andrew,
e you around,”

“Bye Alexis, drive safe,”
“Thanks,” she said, and left swinging her car key in the air.
Andrew’s phone beeped.
“Yo! bro I have to go,
“Hope it’s well?”
“Yea, Is just someone that will want to partner with me, he ask if we can meet up in one of the nearby restaurant,”
“Oh! Okay, it’s a good one,”
“Let me go and hear what he has to say, is not just anyhow person I want,”
Yea, you have to be careful in choosing you partners because, your partners will have a major role in the growth and development of the company,”
“Exactly, I have turned down like five people already,”
“Let me come with you, it getting late,”
“Okay, let’s go at least you will help some…”
“I didn’t say I was going to the meeting with you, I dropped Eden at her sister’s place I think i will just go and pick her up
from there,”
“You are now her cab man driving her around New York,”
“With all pleasure bro,”
We went down stairs and Anty Elena was living already too.
“You guys are living too?”
“Yes Anty,”
“Good bye,”
We all waved each other goodbye.
“Hunter,” mom called just when I was about to stop out.
“I will be expecting a wedding date in two weeks,”
