His Nanny Mate By Eve Above Story

Chapter 156: In His Pocket

Moana

I felt utterly shocked after my conversation with Olivia. At first, I thought that there was no way that she really was Ella’s biological mother, because Ella’s biological mother was supposed to be dead. But the resemblance was uncanny, and she even knew things that no one else knew, such as Edrick’s drinking problem. And the way that she cried when she talked about Ella… It was too real. She didn’t seem to be faking it, and if she was, then she was a hell of a good actress.

But even then, I still didn’t know if I could trust Olivia enough to fully believe her. There was always a possibility that she was lying and wasn’t Ella’s biological mother, but was instead somehow related to Michael or Kelly. That would explain why she knew so much about Edrick and Ella, and why she called Edrick so much late at night. Maybe Michael or someone else wanted her to bother Edrick and lie to me to get me to leave. I had no way of knowing at this point.

Either way, as I took Ella home that day after training I decided to just pretend for a moment that Olivia was telling the truth. If I assumed that Olivia really was Ella’s biological mother, then that meant that this entire situation was potentially more sinister than I originally thought.

I couldn’t help but worry that my baby would be ripped away from me in the same way that Ella was ripped away from Olivia. Would Edrick really do that to me, after everything that happened between us? I thought that there was a chance that we were mates, but now I wasn’t so sure.

entirely sure if I could trust Olivia or not. Maybe some of what she told me was right, but not all of it. I wouldn’t know until I had the perspective from Edrick’s side of the story, and as I took Ella up the elevator and sent her to her room to get washed up for dinner, I wondered when or if I could ask Edrick about all of this. Maybe he could offer some better insight on it.

He had cleared out a drawer in his dresser since I had been sleeping in there again, where I kept a few clothes and some toiletries so that I wouldn’t always need to run back and forth between my room and his room for basic things. I always liked to have the tooth nearby, especially when I was sleeping, so I wound up keeping the tooth in that drawer as well. Now that Edrick knew about it, I wasn’t worried about keeping the tooth a secret anymore so
