Chapter 6

Amelia's POV

After that day, I tried my best not to face Nathan. Though I felt his gaze on me but feigned totally ignorant of that. I stopped walking at night even if I was awake till late being unable to fall asleep.

So when I got to know they were shifting to their resort, I felt relieved thinking I wouldn't have to face Nathan for now for few days.

Though I felt somewhat sad but I found something good also. Mom was right. Nathan wasn't of my league just. And besides, he was getting married. I shouldn't have such immoral thoughts for someone who was going to be someone else's in few days.

But my destiny really chose not to do any favour and go easy on me.

We were also asked to accompany them to the resort and on top of this, I instantly got turned into someone's personal maid. Not just someone but Katrina, the would-be bride of Nathan.

What luck I got! I wondered

I was told to follow her wherever she went. She was about to get out for shopping with Nathan and I had to follow her.

It wasn't like I could do anything but had to follow them.

I got out of the resort following them all silently. When they were about to enter into a car, I got thinking what should I do.

As they didn't say anything, I thought I need to get in the car too and touched the door of the backseat but got stopped as Katrina got uttering, "Hey, you maid, where do you think you are getting into?"

I took a step back and was about to say something but got cut off before that as Katrina got uttering throwing some money on my face, "Get a taxi and follow us."

More than hurt, I got shocked. I found Nathan giving her a shocked look also. He tried to get uttering, "But Katrina, Amelia can" but in between she again spoke up, "Amelia? Who is this?"

I managed to utter, "It's me."

Giving me a shocked look, she again turned to Nathan as she spoke up, "You really remembered her name! Anyways, I don't think it's necessary. Now let's go, baby. We are getting late."

And then turned to me and uttered, "And you, what are you waiting for? Don't dream to get in this car. Go, get a taxi."

She got into the car. Nathan glanced at me and finding nothing to do, I bent down to collect the money which was thrown at my face, which was now on the ground.

A tear rolled down my cheek. But I immediately got it wiped off and forwarded to get a taxi. Nathan got into the car already.

Getting into a taxi, I asked the driver to follow the Lamborghini in front of us.

When the car stopped in front of a multi-storied building and they got down, I also got down from my taxi.

Paying the driver, I followed them. Katrina kept shopping and the number of bags in my hands kept going higher.

But one thing shocked me that, Katrina totally ignored Nathan's choice for the things as she uttered when he chose a floral dress of peach colour for the last time, "Not this one, baby. It's so cheap and classless. What happened to your choice, Nathan?" only to get him all silent.

The dress was really beautiful and when I saw the price, I got shocked.

Is this price cheap!

It's of $50,000.

I turned to the bags of my hands and wondered how much would be the price of all these.

Right then I got called, "Hey maid, here"

Uttering under my breath, "Another bag!", I forwarded towards her.

I was having troubles to carry all the bags. Seeing that, Nathan asked to give him some but I politely refused, "It's okay."

But by the time her shopping was done, I seriously couldn't walk with all those bags. This time without asking, Nathan took some of the bags almost forcefully though I kept refusing.

But when he casted an angry look at me, I couldn't deny him anymore.

Katrina almost got shouting, "Nathan, what are you doing? It's her job. Let her do it."

Nathan got uttering with a little bit of anger, "Can't you see she is having troubles to walk with all these bags?"

"It's her job, Nathan. She gets money for this."

I didn't want them to get themselves to argue on this silly matter and got forward, "It's okay, Mr Edward. I can carry them." and was about to take the bags from him but he uttered still looking at Katrina, "She is also a human though." and without looking at me, he got out of the shopping mall with those bags in hands.

Katrina was fuming in anger as she glared at me. I didn't dare to get uttering anything.

I just kept my head down and followed her when she got out of the shopping mall when she was finally done with glaring at me.

Like before I thought of getting a taxi and didn't go towards the car. When I was about to get into a taxi, Katrina spoke up, "Hey you, maid. Put my things in this car first then you go. Who knows you might steal something from those or just run away with all of those expensive things!"

Did she just suspect me as a thief!

I got all shocked at this. I kept blinking my eyes to control my tears from coming out as I put the bags on their precious Lamborghini. I looked at the driving seat and found Nathan leaning against the seat, his eyes were closed. I didn't know whether he heard Katrina saying that.

When I was done, I got into my taxi. Following their car, I reached the resort and carried all the bags to Katrina's room.

I was about to leave but she uttered, "Bring me a coffee and some snacks. And I like my coffee cool with one cube of sugar."

Nodding at her, I left from there and forwarded towards the kitchen. I got all startled seeing Nathan there. He looked all angry and was searching for something.

Being somewhat confused, I asked him, "Sir, are you searching for something?"

Getting all startled, he turned to me. Soon the angry look turned to a blank one as he kept staring at me for a few moments.

Then without uttering anything, he left from there. Letting out a sigh, I entered the kitchen and made the coffee.

Then I left it to get cool and prepared some snacks. By the time, the coffee got somewhat cool. I was about to leave the kitchen but got bumped into someone and emptied the coffee cup on his chest.

The person hissed in annoyance.

I turned to him as I uttered, "I am really sorry."

The person was Nathan's father, Jackson. The very next moment, I felt my cheek was burning as a tight slap fell on my cheek.

"You useless shit, can't you even see? Look what you did to my expensive dress. Do you even the price of this dress? Even if you work for all your life, you won't be able to buy something like this, you know? Bloody worthless people."

He left after yelling at me and a drop of tear got out of my eyes involuntarily. Before I could react to that, I heard Katrina's shout, "Hey maid, my coffee?"

I immediately made the coffee again and forwarded to her room. Giving her the coffee, I got back to the kitchen and cleaned it.

I was just thankful that Mom wasn't around. Otherwise, she would be more hurt. Completing my work, I forwarded for the room which was given for us. It was outside of the resort and near the beach.

Thinking of the happenings, tears again made their way automatically. Absentmindedly, I again got bumped to someone. Being afraid of getting another slap, I immediately closed my eyes as I got uttering, "I am sorry. Please don't hit me."

As expected I didn't get a slap rather I felt a soft touch on my cheek. With a jerk, I opened my eyes only to find Nathan standing in front of me. His one hand was on my bruised cheek. I got a step back as he got uttering, "What happened?"

I averted my gaze and saying, "Nothing.", I left from there...
