***Javier originally thought that he might be thinking too much. Perhaps the woman had a lot on her mind that morning so she did not chatter with him like usual. It might be related to why she was missing last night.However, the woman did not come to visit his room after that. She did not spend the night or greeted him a 'goodnight'. The next day, she greeted him in the morning and checked his body. After doing the morning routine, she lightly massaged him and then left. She was the same as yesterday.She had been silent in those times too.After three nights, Javier realized that the woman must have been sleeping in the spare room.The time she came into the room was becoming less. She only came once in a while to water the plants. Aside from humming the song, she did not talk to him at all.Javier: "...."Javier felt annoyed.What kind of game this woman was playing?Judging by her upbeat humming, she did not look sad or bothered at all. The only thing that changed was she did no
Javier could not believe it.No, he was having a hard time accepting the truth.The woman....left him after all.She returned to the main mansion this morning. She only told him that she was leaving and locked the room.That woman was going to meet his damn parents to ask for compensation and leave him for a bit of money.It's over.The game she started was over.It was over just like that.After stopping chattering with him and spending less and less time with him, she decided to ruthlessly abandon him alone in this old cabin. Ah, she left a gift- the radio.Javier trembled in anger.He really doesn't care about this odd woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. However! She pretended to be nice and kind to him. She bothered him all day until he acquiesced to listen to her.But in the end, the woman was just playing around!Was he really that easy to bully?!He can't move at the moment but it doesn't mean he would take her insults while lying down!His anger and disappointment tha
The young maid's information was something Suzie already knew. She could summarize all this from Jonathan's report. But hearing it from the maid's mouth was still different. She could gain more information from them that Jonathan doesn't know. As expected, the negotiation would only work if Reyna would accept the terms. "Then did you hear from your Aunt that Madame is..." Suzie elongated her words waiting for the new maid to finish her own sentence. She was sure that there were some secrets of Reyna that only the maids who had been working here for a long time should know. Something that Jonathan's report doesn't cover. The young maid said that the Masters acted independently. Then there must be something going on. Like a dirty secret. As expected the new maid paled. "...You knew that too?" Suzie: "...." She doesn't know. She was just guessing. A wealthy household like this would surely have some secrets that outsider doesn't know. Suzie nodded and pretended that she knows.
Suzie heard a loud crash as soon as she arrived on the veranda. The atmosphere in the air was tense as Reyna's pretty face was distorted. "Are they not putting me in their eyes? Even Kingsley is walking all over me. This is Colton's fault. He acts so arrogantly. He is not giving me face now that he has his damn eldest son's inheritance!" Reyna's face was red with anger. She reached out her hand. "Hand me my phone." The maid ran to Reyna's room. Suzie immediately hid behind the large vase. Fortunately, the maid returned in panic and did not take notice of Suzie.Suzie's lips twitched as she watched the on-guard expression of the maid. They were obviously afraid that Reyna would vent her anger on them. Suzie was in delimma. Reyna's mood was totally bad. Did she come at the wrong time? She was thinking of whether to return with nothing or continue on when Reyna's voice sounded again. "Come here. My husband and son are not here." Reyna said on the phone with a commanding tone. Suz
Reyna harrumphed, "I am not generous to give you favors." She then called the maids behind her. "Escort her out." Before the maids could move, Suzie played her recording on the phone. Reyna's voice sounded. From the moment she started conversing with the man on the phone, to the point Reyna and the other person flirted, to the end of the call, everything was recorded. Reyna looked at the phone in shock. She wanted to get the phone from Suzie but the latter was more nimble than her. Suzie was able to avoid her. "Mother-in-law, are you trying to steal your daughter-in-law's old phone? This phone is cheap and not updated with the current trends. But it can send the recording to many emails and others accounts by default. As you see mother, your daughter-in-law loves saving things and sending them to others. Who knows if your daughter-in-law who had worked many jobs might have known some reporters who love family scandals?" Reyna looked at Suzie, horrified. "You...What are you trying
A/n: I just noticed that I keep using the wrong name. It should be Reyna Albretch not Regina Albretch. *** Reyna was wavering. Ever since she got married, she had to closely watch her reputation and not let anyone learn of her flaws. So as the Madame of the Albrecht family, she had to carefully abide by the rules and took the title of a good wife. A good wife stays at home, properly taking care of their house and properties while waiting for their husband to come home. This was a ridiculous notion that society put to her which made Reyna difficult to swallow. She was a pampered lady of the Mckenzie family. How could she be satisfied being a small fish inside a big aquarium? What she wanted was to be in the wide ocean. Having wealth, freedom, and the envy of the world. However, although she was allowed to have some fun outside, it was limited to a day. She could only spend the night outside with her husband, Colton. Playing queen in the mountain villa was nice, however, she
Javier had been anxious and lonely ever since Suzie left that morning. His anxiousness and sadness grew and turned into anger as time passed. Did she really leave him?! After acting nice and sleeping with him, she still planned to leave him in the end. But then as time passed, his anger turned into realization and understanding. As expected. No one would treat him sincerely. How could a young woman who had a promising life ahead of her be willing to marry him? How could she want to spend the rest of her life with a half-dead like him? No one wants a disabled husband who could not work or provide her with anything. He could not even reply to her small talk or protect her from harm. He was just someone who was incapable and at the mercy of others. Javier's esteem reached its lowest point. How could he ask that woman to stay with him and bear the burden of taking care of him? When in reality, they were just strangers. She was forced to stay with him in this pitiful situation
After boasting her greatest achievement to the only audience she had, Suzie started to think of the matters again.She succeeded for now, but there were many things to come. She knew that life would not go according to her plans. She had to be on guard for the upcoming unexpected and unfavorable situations.During that time, Suzie was not sure if she was able to stay by her husband's side."I'll be going out frequently by then. You will be left alone here. Although I told Reyna to tell the maids to stop coming here, I am still worried that some people are blind and come here to harm you. So I have to continue locking you up." Suzie said as she fiddle with the keys of the padlock.She doesn't want to lock him up. However, this was the only way to ensure that no one would hurt him while she was gone. Although those maids who trespassed in this room did not touch Javier, they might do so the second time they come here."But don't worry. I'll make sure your IV bag is full and you are in g
