Deal with the CEO

CHAPTER ONE (1)

"Can get me that toy?" Anna asked Lyon and he got up "I'll be back" he promised and he left the room to get the toy Anna dropped by mistake.

He bent down to check if the toy was under the chair and he sighted baby Jerry playing with the toy. Lyon is right years old, Anna is five, and baby Jerry clocked one a month ago. Lyon got up to approach baby Jerry.

He couldn't collect the toy from baby Jerry because they will only make him cry, so he wanted to play with him a little before returning to Anna who was waiting for him in the room.

He looked back and he saw Miss. Adams spilling liquids around the house. Lyon is young but he is very smart. Everyone around him always clarified to him that 'he was too smart for his.

Lyon recognized the scent immediately and it was fuel. He only could not understand why Miss. Adams sprinkled gas around the house so he decided to ask her.

"Is that gas?" Lyon asked and when she heard his voice she shook in fear, when she turned to him, she looked shocked like she had just been caught doing a bad thing. Was she doing a bad thing? Lyon had the urge you call his mother.

"It's not gas dearie ...it just smells like gas" she explained and Lyon stood beside the brown couch in his brown boy pants, white T-shirt, and blue vest. His hand rested on his pocket as he stared at her quizzically ...a cleaning agent that seated like gas.

"It's nothing to worry about, when I'm done ...I'll clean it all up and you would even realize this house smelled like as," She said with a smile. Lyon decided to shrug it off.

Mrs. Adams works at Anna's house as a maid. She's been there for a long time and she is nice so she couldn't harm them.

"Okay," Lyon said and he beamed "Lyon!" She called and he halted on his way to the room. "Could you please take Jerry out to play?" She asked Lyon looked outside and it seemed extremely cold out there. "But it's freezing out there," he said. Stating an obvious fact.

" Just go to that firehouse there and stay there. With him for a few minutes ...he enjoys things like that" She explained. " Okay, let me get Anna then," Lyon said "No!" She shouted and it scared Lyon and baby Jerry started crying.

He had known Mrs.Adams for a few months and this was the first time she acted so strange and suspicious ...he couldn't just get off Gus's chest, he was getting scared so he dropped baby Jerry and brought out his phone from his pocket.

He realized his phone had been recording so he turned it off...he dialed his mom and she didn't pick up after several dials. He called Anna's mother after three futile dials to his mother.

Anna's mother didn't do any different ad she also didn't pick up the call so he respected calling his nanny who also served the role of his second mother. Except for the fact that she respected him a lot, regardless of his age, and also referred to him as 'young master' with a slight bow.

She has been there to witness his eight years of life and Lyon still had vague memories of her laughing when he ran to her with a lollipop in his right hand when he was just 4.

He called her Madam. Kelly is a nice woman who treated him like he was her son.

"Hello," he said over the phone after she picked at the first dial "What's the wrong young master?" She asked after sensing the shake in his voice.

Lyon wasn't surprised at how accurate her guessing was ... which was that ... something was going on.

Madam. Kelly has known him since birth, it was only normal for her to understand everything about him and his reactions also.

"The maid at Anna's house is acting strange" H stated, " What do you mean young master?" She asked, " She's sprinkling gas around the house, I would have contacted the police but I don't want it to seem like a prank if my suspicion turned out to be false but she kept acting suspicious..."

"She was more scared when she saw me and then she told me to go out with her son ..." Lyon rambled on.

He only did that whenever he was genuinely petrified and this scared Madam Kelly.

She knew Lyon was extremely smart and his suspicions always had at least seventy percent accuracy so she couldn't ignore his words.

She had to do something and what she was going to do confused her. She had no idea of what you do but she knew she had to him first.

"Call your mother" she suggested as she got out of her apron. She took a key from the wall that was filled with keys to several exotic cars.

She lived in the house with Lyon's mother and she was close to her a little bit. Her husband didn't stay very much at home due to business meetings and trips, so she was employed to assist her.

She was the only one that had access to this room apart from the owners of the house. "I've tried her number severally but she didn't pick it up" Lyon explained " Call her friend" she added and Lyon sighed " Same reply" he replied.

"I'm on my way there. Where are you ?" She asked as she got to the garage. She pressed the remote and the car unlocked. She got into the black car.

Madam Kelly didn't recognize the brands of cars but she knew it was worth millions of dollars and the same applies to the remaining cars in the garage.

"I'm at the firehouse in front of the main house" Lyon replied seeing him staring at baby Jerry whose tears and wails had reduced.

"Stay right there young master. No matter what happens, don't leave there. I'll come to get you and your mom. Nothing will happen " She said and Lyon didn't reply.

" What Happened?" Madam Kelly asked and Lyon whimpered " I'm scared " he confessed and Madam Kelly increased her pace with the car. She had to get to him fast.

"You'll be fine Lyon, you're a strong and smart boy," She said and Lyon decided to stay strong and he heard a voice.

"Lyon !" The voice screamed and he instantly recognized the voice. It felt like time stopped.

Everywhere was quiet, the building and trees were all gone. He was standing in the center of the desert and the voice yelled at him "Lyon!".

He felt choked. His breath hitched and he managed to whisper "Anna".

Madam Kelly noticed the silence coming from him and she wanted to know if he was fine "Lyon" she called "Lyon" she repeated and there was no reply. She pressed on the brakes again.

Something could have happened. She called the police immediately.

Lyon turned back to where the voice was coming from and he fell to his knees in shock. The house was on fire. His thoughts were shattered and they came together slowly.

"M...o...m" he stuttered "Mom is there " he shouted and Madam Kelly heard it as she was still on the phone all. "What happened? Lyon!" She called and Lyon didn't notice she called his name for the first time.

He didn't know what to do as tears flowed down his eyes. "Don't leave there Lyon, what's happening?" Madam Kelly asked

His reaction scared her. She was oblivious to the flames that had enveloped the house.

"Fire" he whispered "The ...house is on fire," Lyon said and baby Jerry burst into another session of tears which didn't bother Lyon.

"Lyon!" Anna called again and he realized she was in the fire, she was looking for him.

"Lyon, don't leave" Madam Kelly warned but Lyon ignored her and ran out of the firehouse after ensuring the safety of baby Jerry. There wasn't any fire in the fireplace so the gas wouldn't affect it.

Lyon rushed to the storage took beside the firehouse and grabbed the fire extinguisher. He carried it and he ran to the house.

He sprayed the entrance as he ran inside. He sprayed as he ran and the fire was reducing but it was still much.

"Lyon!" Anna called again and Lyon turned to see the little girl standing afar from him. He was relieved to find our she's fire. He approached and almost immediately, he sighted the wood that detached from the ceiling with fire on the tip, falling, and it was directed at Anna's head.

Lyon ran immediately and he pushed her away. 'Ouch,' he yelled in pain when he leaned against a burning wood. He got up and sprayed the living room immediately.

The place was dark already. His shoulder burnt and Lyon ignored the immense pain he was feeling as he held Anna's hand and left to rescue their parents.

"Anna, go out," he said and they moved. He wanted to make sure she was safe and the only way to not worry was if she left.

"I don't want to" she replied. "Baby Jerry is out there, go," he said. He was aware that she cared for baby Jerry a lot and she held his hand one last time before running out of the house.

Lyon walked as he sprayed the extinguisher around the house, he got to the second living room upstairs and he raised the door knob.

He tried again and the door didn't open. The door was locked and there was a fire In the house. He pushed the door with his tiny hands and it had no effect.

He had an idea instantly. He used the fire extinguisher to shatter the glass of the door. He raised the extinguisher and it didn't go that far.

He rushed to get a stool. He stood on it and stretched his hand through the shattered part of the door. He reached for the lock and it opened immediately.

He got in and he sprayed the extinguisher everywhere. The fire was down but they weren't. Anna's mother already lost consciousness and his mother was barely alive as she struggled to breathe.

He called 911 immediately to explain the situation and he rushed to grab his mother's hands. She told him how much she loved him, she told him you do things that'll make her proud and she told him to. look after Anna.

Lyon didn't understand why she spoke in such a manner. When she lost consciousness and he couldn't hear her breathing anymore ...He screamed

He heard sirens and they rushed in with strollers and wheeled the women out.

Lyon ran after his mother and when he got outside, M adam Kelly was there already. She pulled the young boy into a hug.

The little boy couldn't accept that his mother was gone and the only thing he could do to express his pain was to cry in her arms.

He fainted shortly after that.
