"Ms Anderson, my office now" Julian said before walking back into his office.

I walk in on him swearing and cursing... Is this a right time to talk to him now....

"I need your help with something" he said once he noticed my presence and I frown at his statement.

"Am sorry but did you just say that you're in need of my help" I asked in a challenging tone.

He took a deep breath. "Ms Anderson, I am in need of your help and I want you to accompany me to Paris on a three week trip in order to convince one of our collaborators to continue working with us. I would have loved to have any other person along with me on this trip, but the man is in love with you and your personality, apparently.

My frown only deepens at his explanation "And why would this person be in love with me and my personality".

"He was in the room when I was interviewing you"He said and turn to press a button on his desk "Apparently, you showcased a lot of zeal and passion, and he is in love with people like that" He said making me cringe.

"It feels weird hearing you praise me" I said, and he chuckles. "You think I am praising you, sorry to burst your bubble baby girl , but I am not"He said as his secretary walks in handing over a file to him.

"I can't leave this country without my kid" I said making him groan. "Then take him or her along with you"He said in a duh manner.

"You can take your leave." He said and I walk out...

"This is actually going to be interesting, it will let you be able to explore different places and Kyra has always wanted to travel out of the countries and not to mention that she loves Paris" Layla said while helping me pack in order to lift my mood.

I drag my fingers along Kyra's notepad about what she wishes to do in the future. "As much as I love you staying on the positive side, you should also remember that we are going along with that dickhead. He always gives me reasons to hate him more than usual" I explained while she tries her best to zip up Kyra's luggage.

"Well if I were you, I would try and pretend that he doesn't exist even though I know that it won't really help considering the fact that you guys are going to be together for three whole weeks" She said as she finally got the box sorted out.

"Mom, am ready" Kyra said as she walks in while carrying her teddy bear.

"We will leave in the next...." I got cut off with the ringing from my phone.

"Am downstairs. You have ten minutes" The voice said before cutting off the call making me frown.

"As much as I would love to know what just happened, I have work so bye" Layla said before grabbing her purse and rushing off.

"Mom, why do you always pack on the morning when we are leaving" Kyra asked as I do a check over in case I forget anything.

"That's because am weird and I didn't know beforehand about this trip" I explained and she grins.

We walk out of the building only to be faced with Julian and his Secretary.

"That was eight minutes and sixteen seconds" He said, and I frowned.

"Number one question, how in the world do you know where I live and why do you have my number?" I asked, and he pulled his stupid smile again while his secretary opens the door to his car for Kyra.

"I have my sources, and it was actually easy to figure out" He said as he buckles Kyra in.

"My name is Kyra and you look very handsome uncle" She said while grinning at him.

"Thank you." he said politely making me frown. Julian is never polite.

The duo continue talking to each other from the time we got to the airport till we got to Paris.

"Welcome to Paris" Julian said while Kyra starts to beam at the sight.....
