Undeniable Attraction novel Chapter 21

SHAYAN'S POV

The next week I decided to ask Kel for a nanny or someone who could stay with Evie during the week. I dropped her off at Rosie's every day and I felt like I was bothering her since they were preparing for the wedding. Kel was at the pool area making a phone call and he raised his eyebrows questioningly as he saw me. I told him I'd wait till the call ends, I was thinking he'd end the call immediately, I ended up waiting for ten minutes.

"So what do you want to say?" he asks

"I was wondering if I could get a nanny for Evie and maybe get the helps back. "

"Then what are you going to be doing? " he coldly asked

"I'm working Kel. There's no time to clean and cook. "

"Then map out time. I'm paying you after all. I'd see to the nanny."

"Are you his maid?" Evie asked coming out of nowhere

"Evie, you don't chip in when others are talking," I warned

"She's my wife Evie, she has to do these things."

"But she says there's no time. Do you want your wife working all the time? "

"Evie leave us, please. " I begged

"No. Nice tactic West. They resume on Monday. " so he's thinking I planned this?

"Evie what did I tell you? Can you at least listen to me for once?" I asked as soon as Kel left

"He does not like you, why did he marry you then? " she curiously asked

"Who told you he doesn't like me? He's just stressed, it's work. " I said in his defence but she didn't look convinced

"Do you like him? " she asked again

"Evie. " I exclaimed. "You're asking questions I can't answer."

"It's just a yes or no," she said innocently. "You used to tell me everything before."

She sounded like she was going to cry now. " I'm sorry Evie, I'd tell you soon okay. "

I carried her to the room promising her a movie then went to the kitchen to get popcorn and ice cream. Kel was seated on one of the stools eating chips while doing something on his phone.

"Is that why you brought her here? To cause trouble?" he coldly asked

"No. I brought her here for the reasons I explained earlier. I'm sorry that she's causing trouble. You don't have to bother about the helps, I'd manage."

"I already told her I'd get them, I'd have to do that," he said and I nodded

I took what I came for and Evie ran in. "I've been waiting for you. The movie is about to start."

"Okay let's go," I said taking the popcorn and ice cream

"Do you want to join us?" she politely asked and he rudely replied saying no and I think it hurt her a bit.
