Young CEO loves me novel Chapter 4

Eric McSmith was a billionaire CEO who died a few months back from heart attack. His company was popular all over the world and it was worth several billionaires of dollars.

According to the internet, he was happily married with two kids. With Kelvin McSmith being the eldest and Angelica McSmith being a year younger than him.

"Can you borrow me your phone?" Alisha who was still processing the fact about who Kelvin was asked.

"Yeah. Sure" Kelvin said and handed it to her.

"Do you mind excusing me?"

He shrugged before replying "I don't mind" and walked out of the room.

Alisha dialled her mother's number when she was sure that he was gone but there was no answer so, she tried again.

"Hello. Hello. Who is on the line?" her mother said the moment she picked up. Tears rolled down from Alisha's eyes and she slowly wiped it away with the back of her hand.

"Hello" her mother called again "Who is there?"

"It's me mom" she replied and bursted into tears.

"Alisha!?" her mother called unbelievably "Alisha, is that you?"

"Yea mom."

"Alisha!" Her mother screamed into the phone "Is that truly you?'

Alisha sighed heavily before replying "Mom, it me. I'm sorry."

"Where are you now? Are you okay?"

"I'm okay."

"Should I come and get you?"

"No. Don't worry, I will be home tomorrow."

Her mother sobbed quietly in the background for almost a minute.

"Mom, we will talk tomorrow." Alisha said slowly.

"Why can't you come home today. I can come and pick you up myself. Where are you exactly?"

"I'm fine Mom. I'm really fine. I will explain everything to you when we see each other. I'm sorry"

"It's okay. You're really going to be home tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, I promise."

Her mother heaved a sigh. "All right. Bye. I love you. And make sure to take care of yourself"

"I love you too. Bye."

She hung up the phone and slowly got out of the bed. She was trying to use this opportunity to look around the house.

She slowly stepped out of the room and took the right way, taking in how beautiful the house was. It was neatly furnished with modern things and Alisha had no idea when she mouthed 'wow'

"You love it, don't you?" Someone asked cockily behind Alisha's back and she quickly turned around. It was Kelvin and he was standing with his back to the wall and his hands folded.

"Oh my God! You scared me." she said while hitting her chest in order to calm herself down.

"Didn't mean to" Kelvin said "So, how are you feeling now?"

"Better." Alisha replied and started walking towards him "Thank you so much and here is your phone" she added as she stretched out her hand.
