Bride For Rent novel Chapter 57

Four years later, Katherine was in her office when a reminder went off in her phone. She stopped going through the document in her hand and picked up her phone, when she saw the note in the reminder, she immediately dropped the phone and her writing pen. She took of her reading glasses and arranged her desk neatly. Piling up the documents in one side on the desk.

Katherine stood up and put on her jacket, she grabbed her phone, her handbag and her car key. She rushed out of the office in quick strides that was surprising with her heels. When she got to the elevator, she saw Raymond walking out of it on call and she immediately took the stairs. She can't afford him seeing her now.

Even though they had became quite closer with the years, something's are not in her power to decide. She came out from the stairway on the next floor and took the elevator.

She rushed to her car and immediately got in, she ignited the car while dropping her handbag on the passenger's seat, she was so giddy and happy.

"Ha, at last" she whispered with a happy smile as she steered her car out of the underground parking lot. Minutes later, she pulled over in front of the airport and checked her time, damn, she was already ten minutes late.

She jumped out of the car and inside the airport she ran, her eyes searching frantically at the faces of people swarming around her. She was walking in heavy steps, hoping and praying she wasn't too late. Her eyes looking everywhere she saw a being.

"Grandaunt!" a cute little voice called to her and she turned, she will know that voice anywhere. A sweet smile appeared on her lips as she watched the cute little legs running towards her. She went down on her knees with her arms opened wide as they came slamming into her. Her hold tightened on them as she laughed heartily.

"Oh my darlings, I have missed you" she said before she started kissing them all over their faces "muah, muah, muah, oh my honeys. Come one, give me a kiss."

Two little mouths touched each side of her cheeks and she grinned. Oh, her lonely days are over.

"Ha, thank goodness it's you Katherine, this two won't give me a heart attack" Mercy said as she panted heavily, she glared at the two little munchkins who were now laughing at her, "how many times will I tell you to stop running off like that?"

"Sorry nanny Mercy" they both chanted in their cute little voices.

Katherine smiled then and faced the little ones, "you should take it easy on old Mercy here. You don't want her looking for you everywhere and it's your first time here. You can't afford to get lost."

"Sorry grandaunt, it's all Sofie's fault, she was the one who started running first and I had to follow her to make sure she is okay" said a cute, handsome little boy with brunette hair and light gray eyes. His lips were thin, pinkish and added a spark of beauty to his sweet little face. He was grinning at the little girl who was pouting for being blamed for their naughtiness.

"You are lying. You were the one that said you want us to find grandaunt first" Sofia, the little girl with honey gold hair and big emerald green eyes. She had a small pouting lips that made her so adorable that one will want to kiss her at sight. Her cheeks were chubby that one will want to give it a pinch because of how soft they looked. She looked so adorable and cute. She was pouting now and pointing her finger to her elder brother who is about two inches taller than her and grinning.

"Don't listen to her grandaunt, she is lying" he turned to say to Katherine immediately.

Katherine chuckled, "alright, alright. No need to keep throwing blames. Maybe you should-" she was interrupted by a lady dressed in skinny jeans with a long coat. Her honey gold hair was left flying on her shoulders, she was wearing sunglasses and high heels. She was dragging a trolley of luggage behind her and was smiling as she approached closer.

"I told you they ran away because they might have seen Aunty Katy nanny Mercy" she said as stopped and looked at the little ones, "I will deal with you two when we get home" the two children pouted and stared at their feet. The lady chuckled before looking at Katherine, her chuckle blossoming into a beautiful smile, "Aunt Katy" she hugged the older woman tightly who also hugged her back.

"Oh my dear, I can't believe you finally decided to come back" Katherine smiled.

"I'm done with school, what else will I be doing there? Beside I know you are missing these two devils."

"Em, no, not really. Eh, I-I just wanted to em, ask you something."

"Really? What's that?"

"Actually, I just want to know when you will be going to Florida, you know. There is something I want you to give to her for me."

"Oh. Em, I don't really know yet. I will let you know when I decide."

"Okay, thanks. I hope you are okay?"

"Yea I'm fine."

"Alright then. Take care of yourself."

"Thanks, see you tomorrow."

He hung up and looked around the office before leaving for his own.
