Chapter nine

Present day

Victoria Philip

"Dad soon I will be back in newyork. I promise. I just need to settle something here." I said to my dad through the phone as I was also signing important documents and paperwork my secretary left on my desk.

"You know I miss you so much darling. I not getting younger anymore. I'm now regretting why I sent you to London,you don't visit me only when I visit you we get to see. It's been ten years Victoria." he spoke sadly, his voice not as strong as it was before.

" Dad you are the strongest man I know. I promise I will be back soon . There's also someone I will like you to meet. So I will be in newyork next week. "

" Don't tell me it a new fiancee. I'm tried of meeting different fiancee Victoria anytime I come visit, you need to stop playing men and settle down. " I'm not playing men, I'm just having a good time with them and vice versa.

"Dad it's not just anyone it's my Greek billoniare fiancee. I need him to get a very big contract dad. So when I introduce him to you , I need you to act like his going to be my husband and make him feel  welcome into the family. "

" Victoria you don't need his connection or anybody else's. You are practically the most powerful women in the world and world richest person so I don't believe that. Tell me the real reason you want to introduce him to the media as your fiancee. " My father was too smart for my liking.

" Sorry Dad , I can't hear you... network bad. I love you ! See you soon. " I cut the call.

I couldn't tell my father that the real reason I want to introduce my fling to him as my boyfriend it's because of Noah Williams. Yes after ten fucking years I hadn't gotten over that asshole.  I have been reading newyork times magazine and his face was always on the head line. I just found out he his getting married and I want to stop the wedding as Victoria philp. No I wasn't in love with him. I was in hate with him.

"Get my jet ready we are flying to newyork tomorrow morning. And also get Andrew on the phone tell him I will pick him up by five in the morning. Tell him we are going to newyork. " I said to my male secretary."

Andrew was a fling I meet in two months ago at a club. He actually owned the club. He was Greek billoniare and also has a face of a Greek god.

But not as handsome as noah fucking Williams.

I stood up from my chair looking at my expensive wrist watch to check the time. It's was past seven and I was already finished for the day. Since today was going to be my last day here, the documents to signed were very much and important for further business dealings.

I will be going to newyork tomorrow I had to put my personal assistant in charge for the time being until I'm back.

I was going to return to newyork as Victoria Philip the spoilt princess. Not as Victoria John the nerd.

I walked to my car and made my way to my penthouse. I owned this luscious house ,it's was a thirty five story building with in me in it. I have been living here with my son for the past nine years ever since I found out I was pregnant. My father didn't know about this place when he visits,he had his own house in London which he stays in.

No one new about my not even my father. He was the surprise I told my father about.

My son has never step out of this building before. He has always been homeschooled right from the beginning. Like I said I owned the whole  building so I had a school for only him arrange here, sport equipment, game center and all other equipment a child needs. Even a playing ground were he plays alone.

Truthfully I was ashamed of having a son at the age of nineteen especially with Noah fucking Williams been the father. I found out I was pregnant when I got to London about a month. I took all the burden alone without any help.

I thought at the beginning i was feeling home sick or something until I went to the hospital and find out I was two weeks pregnant. I nearly had an abortion but later decided against it.. not to hurt myself ,I didn't really cared if the child made it or not. I never cared for my baby, I never breastfeeded him, change his diaper or anything of that sort. I hired different nannies to do those things and after a year I fire them with a good amount of money to keep their mouths shut.

I didn't want them getting too attached to him and vice versa. Even though I never truly acted like a mother to him doesn't mean he should look for another mother. I gave birth to him not them.

"Xavier come here, mother has something to tell you." He left his video games which he love so much and came to me but keep a huge distance between us. We don't have normal mother and son relationship.. with I been the real cause.

"We are going to newyork." I told him boringly waiting for reaction.

"Does that mean I get to see the real world. " He said trying to hide his happiness from me.

" Yes not for long though, you will still be stuck in your grandfather's house,then we will be back to London and then I will be sending you to a boarding school."

" I have a grandpa. " He ignored my last words and asked about his grandfather.

" Yes now go and arrange your things and stop asking stupid questions. " He left to his room to do what I ask him to do.

Another reason why I wasn't close to my son was because of the uncanny resemblance he has with his father. Once Noah Williams sees him ,he would definitely know he was the father. Why couldn't Xavier resemble me,I couldn't stand to look at his face anymore.

I was a bad mother and it's wasn't at all my fault it was all his father's . His father was to blame for ruining my life and that of his,  For making me not truly loving and caring for him how a mother was supposed to.
