“I'll meet you downstairs for breakfast.” I smiled.
“Charlotte, can you do my hair?” she asked.
“You bet. How do you want me to do it?”
“I want a French braid.”
Shit.
“I'm afraid I don't know how to do a French braid, but I'll learn. I promise. How about a regular braid for today?”
“Okay.”
After braiding her hair, we went downstairs.
“Morning.” Ashton smiled. “Charlotte, this is Sylvia. Sylvia, this is Eloise's new nanny, Charlotte.”
“It's a pleasure to meet you, Charlotte.” Sylvia smiled.
“You too, Sylvia.”
“I have to get to the office. Have a good day at school, sweetheart.” He walked over and kissed Eloise's head.
I bit my bottom lip as I watched him walk out of the kitchen, dressed in his designer suit and Italian loafers. Damn, he was sexy.
After Dominic returned from dropping Ashton off at the office, Eloise and I climbed into the back of the Escalade. When we reached the school, I climbed out and grabbed Eloise's hand.
“There's my teacher.” She pointed.
“Your teacher is a man?” I asked.
“Good morning, Miss Cross. How are you today?” her teacher asked.
“Morning, Mr. Sullivan. This is my new nanny, Charlotte.”
“Hello, Charlotte. It's nice to meet you.” He extended his hand.
I would admit that Eloise's teacher was hot. Damn. I never had teachers who looked like that when I was in school.
The bell rang, and Eloise let go of my hand when she saw Kelsey.
“Have a good day!” I shouted.
She turned and gave a small wave.
“Are you the new nanny?” A young woman walked over.
“Yes. I'm Charlotte.” I smiled.
“It's nice to meet you. I'm Millie. We, nannies, take the children to the park after school if you'd like to bring Eloise and join us.”
“Sure. Sounds fun.” I smiled.
I climbed back into the Escalade and shut the door.
“Mr. Cross just called. He needs me to drive him to a meeting. I can drop you off somewhere after.”
“That's fine. Can we make a Starbucks run first? Please, Dominic? There's one right down the street.”
