Claudia

Claudia ran into the magnificent building with a document on her right hand. She climb the staircase without caring about her safety. she was unable to use the elevator because she was not a tenant and her deceitful aunt won't bother to help .

She received a call this morning from her aunt, telling her to hurry down to her place and claudia did that because every minute late cause a loss from her income.she ran through the hallway and stopped at the front of a door.she patted her hair quickly and straighten up her about rumpled sleeve before knocking.

"Come in" she heard a lazy voice from the inside which was no other than her aunt.she nervously pushed the door and shut it the moment she was inside.

"Good morning auntie"

"You should be thankful you came on time. I just got a call from a colleague that there's a special job which needs a quick response and the pay is sumptuous" the lady who was sitting on the milky coloured couch said greedily.

The apartment was a portable one and it was close to her aunt's workplace that's why she had rented it, leaving her terrible children for claudia.

After saying all the dos and don'ts the lady looked at the girl enviously. If her children could be just like her it would have been wonderful, but no? they were so prideful and always behave ladylike just as she had taught them.

"I'll go and prepare for it…"

"don't prepare, just go now" Mrs harry said, a bit infuriated. "but my brother's teacher told me to visit the school today tha…" "shut up you idiot,go out there and make money for me or do you want your father to go back to where he has been?" Mrs harry said while raising her eyebrows at the girl.

"No no no… I'll do so now" Claudia said as a deep pain course through her heart.she have been living with this woman for the past five years and she have suffered hell all along. her family wouldn't be in this situation if not her father who made a deal with one of those bigwigs and later lead to the crumbling of his company.

Her younger brother who was thirteen have not been doing well in his studies. she sometimes receive calls from his teachers. for her, she was always running here and there just to please her auntie and het husband.

She walked down the staircase with a heavy heart. stumbling on someone who was heading to her direction, she quickly said sorry and came out of the building.

she hailed a cab and left. Afterwards, she went to her office to get her instrument for the job.

Claudia studied medicine and graduated with a good result. unfortunately,her duvious aunt forced her to become a psychologist using her power and position and had the table turned. After she dropped by and collected her materials she headed for the address that was sent on sms from her aunt.

"Young lady I can't trespass this area, I'm just a cab driver. this place is where wealthy people live." the man said honestly. Claudia swallowed and paid the driver then she stepped out of the car. the place was actually another world to her, the surrounding and buildings were speaking money. she walked into the area and continued her search for the address on her phone. No one to ask for directions.the place seems quiet and it instilled fear inside her.

After over thirty minutes of walking, she finally saw a middle aged man watering beautiful flowers outside a huge black gate. she hurriedly walk to him and greeted "good day sir". the man turned from his work and saw a young lady behind him.she seems to be walking for a long time as her face was covered with sweat.

"how can I help you" the man said without a change of expression "sir,I am looking for this address, would you mind pointing a direction" she showed the man the address.

sigh, this girl did not know this place. the man thought "young lady, this is the mansion on the address" he said. claudia grinned foolishly "ahh…, really?" "yes, I'm the butler please do come in" the man said and walked to the gate. Claudia was stunned for a moment before she followed the man.the pressed some buttons on the side of the huge gate and it opened slowly. Claudia was taken aback,this place is very guarded she thought.

Claudia was awestrucked when she went inside. An eye catching mansion stood boldly with the white paint adorning it.the atmosphere was refreshing, the green garden and flowers were pleasant to the eyes especially for someone like her. all through her years of working as a psychologist,the mansions she have seen was nothing compared to this palace.

The middle aged man saw the girl was surprised by what she's seeing.l and he was satisfied.

Inside the mansion was breathtaking as well, the expensive and exotic things in the living room could feed her whole family for the rest of their life. A man who was in a well tailored black suit walked to them as the butler whispered to him and he looked at the girl with a sinister smile.Claudia was taken aback,she looked behind her and back to the twos at her front, what are they whispering to each other? she thought. Both men looked at her and she stared at her phone, maybe she got the wrong address. The man stood at her front with the dangerous smile still playing on his lip, "Ms bradford nice to have you here" he said flatly.claudia eyes widened, she was definitely in the right address. "My name is Raymond, current assistant of the Dustin corporation".
