102 Successful Mission
The zoo had built quite an impressive display of animal statues with a beautiful display of flowers and plants. It was the perfect spot to take a memorable photo for anyone’s trip to the zoo.
“I’ll take the photo for you, Sir,” the nanny quickly offered.
“Thanks,” Adrian replied kindly before handing her his phone.
“Come this way, Millie. Let’s take a photo together,” I said as I offered her my hand.
Millie hesitated a little before placing her smaller hand into mine. Her hand felt soft, and I thought that she was extremely cute. I helped her over to a status of a tiger because she liked tigers. Adrian came to stand next to me before wrapping an arm around my waist and pulled me slightly closer to him.
“Please look this way,” the nanny said as she waved at us to focus on the camera.
“Smile!” I told Millie.
We all put on our best smiles while the nanny took multiple photos of us. I was quite certain that the photos would turn out great, and hopefully, we would look like a family. I had to say that the day progressed smoothly all thanks to Millie being on her best behavior. My life could have been very different had she had been such a difficult child. Then again, I might just break off the contract because I didn’t like dealing with snobby children. No one does, right?
“What about a photo with just you and your father?” I suggested brightly.

“Do you want Adrian to carry you?” I asked suggestively.
“Yes...” Millie mumbled.
I turned to smile at Adrian who sighed a little before giving in. He lifted little Millie into his arms and posed for their photo to be taken. The two looked picture perfect together and Millie was all smiles. She really loves him. Adrian is so lucky to have such a darling daughter like Millie.
“Can we take a photo together?” Adrian turned to ask me once he had placed Millie back on her feet.
“Me?” I asked, a little surprised.
“Of course. Who else?” Adrian teased before pulling on my wrist.
“Umm...ok...” I mumbled as he quickly pulled me to his side.
“Look this way!” the nanny said. Millie was already standing at her side.
I stood next to Adrian before he placed his arm around my waist and pull me even closer. He smiled down at me before we both turned to smile at the camera. Then his arm pushed me further closer to him.
“Adrian...” I whispered.
“Come closer...” he said as he urged me even closer.
We were so close that I had to put a hand on his chest. I smiled one of my best smiles at the camera as the nanny took photos of us.
“Thank you...” I thanked her when we were done.
“Mille, are you tired?” the nanny asked.
Millie shook her head but even I could tell that Millie was very tired. It looked like she was ready to fall asleep where she was standing. The nanny quickly noticed that too and scooped Millie up into her arms.
“We should head back. I think Millie’s had her fill of zoo animals for the day,” Adrian quickly agreed.
Millie looked a little dissatisfied that we were going home earlier than planned but when we got back to the car, she fell asleep in no time at all.
“I guess she really was tired...” I whispered as I glanced at her adorable sleeping face.
“She’s tired, miss. She walked a lot, and she was excited all day...” the nanny replied.
I laughed softly before turning back in my seat to focus my attention on the handsome man sitting right next to me. Adrian still held my hand, and I was still comforted by his touch.
“Are you sleepy? You can take a nap, you know?” Adrian suggested tenderly.
“Hmm...a little...” I admitted.
“You can lean your head on my shoulder,” Adrian offered kindly.

His body felt so warm and when he reached out his hand to stroke my hair softly, my eyelids started to feel heavy and soon my eyes had drifted closed.

Adrian woke me up from my pleasant slumber when we arrived back at his mansion. I can’t believe that I truly fell asleep at his invitation. Does this count as sleeping on the job, I wondered.
“Good morning...” Adrian said teasingly.
“Morning...” I replied lazily.
It wasn’t morning though. By the time we arrived back at the mansion, it was very late in the afternoon and evening was fast approaching. Millie had just woken up too and she seems very sleepy and disorientated. The nanny saved the day once again by carrying her into the mansion while she was still drowsy from sleep.
“I’ll take Millie to her bedroom. She probably needs more sleep. I wish that I could shower her first because she’s so sweaty but...” the nanny said very quickly.
She must love Millie quite a lot because she took care of the girl so well. I smiled at her as she quickly excused herself.
“Thank you, Elena,” Millie said softly.
I reached out a hand to stroke her soft brown hair. She’s so adorable but our little angel has lost almost all of her energy.
“You’re welcome, dear. Have a good nap,” I replied sweetly before waving my hand at her.
“Ok...” she mumbled.
The nanny took Millie up the stairs, and I continued waving to her. As she disappeared from sight, I felt like my mission for the day had come to a decently successful end. First family outing ticked.
“I glad today went smoothly. Honestly, I was very nervous about how it would turn out at first,” I confessed truthfully to Adrian.
