“This is good news Mister Jaccobich. She’s recovering fast than I expected. It’s still a week after she takes the prescription, and the lady is doing well. I guess there’s nothing to worry about,” the doctor said as he was looking at my current records. I was sitting at the side of the bed, looking at both Reign and the doctor.
The current room I was in was surrounded by blue, and even though I know who owns this room, it still doesn’t seem to sink into my brain. For the whole week, I slept here, in Reign’s room. I wonder where he slept while I was here. Reign’s room is too big, and if you look closely, everything is immaculate. Daily cleaned by the maids.
I didn’t speak because the doctor was talking to Reign. I also recovered my voice the other day, but I was still careful because my throat was still a bit sore.
“Thanks for the regular check you do for her, Doc,” Reign said, and then he looked at me.
“Where’s Thraia?” I asked when one of the maids go to my room to fetch me for lunch. It’s been a month since I was poisoned, and the doctor has left for the final check-up. He said that I don’t have to wait for another few months because the poison in my body has completely disappeared. Reign stopped Doctor Greg and asked to have lunch here first, but the doctor rejected the offer because he still had something to take care of. Speaking of Reign, I closed my eyes and giggled. I don’t know, but I started to get to know him. “She was on leave Miss,” I suddenly fixed myself. I forgot I had someone with me inside this room. I let out a deep sigh and face the maid. Fortunately, I barely turned my back on her earlier. “Why?” I asked because I didn’t know she had left. I saw her last week inside the house, but I noticed something strange about Thraia, she seems to be avoiding me, and now she was on leave without bot
“What did you say?” Reign asked in a taut manner. I looked at him, and he was giving this expression of being nervous and angry. I think it’s because of what Thraia said earlier.“I-I was the one who p-poisoned the miss, master,” Thraia repeated what she said earlier. I confusedly looked at her.“What are you saying?” I couldn’t believe what Thraia have said. I gently held her shoulders, that was constantly going up and down because she was crying endlessly.“It’s true. I’m the one who put poison on your food because I know that teriyaki is your favorite, and that’ll be the first thing you will eat inside the grand event. That was the kind of person you were,” she said without looking at me.I was stunned. I don’t know if Thraia was telling the truth or not. I remember that she didn’t eat when I invited he
“Where did Reign take Thraia?” I immediately asked Elliott when he came to my room to take me downstairs and eat. I went back to my room because I couldn’t afford to stay there in Reign’s room.It has also been three days since the day Thraia confessed. I did not have a night of proper sleep during that day, and I could see the wakefulness and swelling of the eyes on my face. I don’t know why I’m like this, maybe because Thraia was the one I wanted to be friends with for the first time in my life.“You need to go downstairs and eat lunch, Ruchee. The maids said that you eat a few mouthfuls, then sometimes, you don’t come downstairs to eat. How many days have you been like that?” Elliott said, ignoring my question. I looked at him, and there are scars on his hand and face. I only saw him again three days ago, and I also did not see his face for a month. What happened to him?
“Why can’t I know where Thraia is, and why can’t I talk to her?” I asked Elliot. We are in the dining hall eating dinner. I had no other place to go inside this house but only the dining hall, receiving area, room, and terrace.It’s been three days without seeing Reign inside this house and three days with Elliott being around with me in this house. It’s also been a month since Thraia last picked me up and taking me back to the room. I want to see and talk to her. I don’t know, but I was incredibly excited when I found out that Thraia also considered me her friend.“Because that’s what Reign said,” says Elliott, and he snorted. I haven’t carved Elliott about the information anymore because when Reign’s name is mention, I’m sure I won’t get anything out of him.I just kept eating. When we finished eating and rested, Elliot invited me

Also, I don’t want to be in a disadvantaged state with the boss,” “Relax! You are too scared of our boss, and I thought we would only take one woman. I didn’t know there was a reserve,” “This is okay. Ma’am Sharmon said that no one was in the house because she had given Jaccobich’s men sleeping pills. We didn’t expect that there was still someone awake, so we had no choice but to take them,” I heard their footsteps walking away from me. I opened my eyes because of the loud conversation, and I don’t know what they’re sayin
I felt the movement of the ship, indicating that it was departing from its current stand. I kept struggling to free my hands from the rope. It was already hurting, and I felt it would remove my skin, but I didn’t stop. I looked at the two maids I was with. I was even in pain, and my heart became tender when I saw the blood kept flowing down from the eyes of the maid who got stabbed by Sharmon. As I gritted my teeth, I clenched my fists while the anger was building inside my body. I’m not this kind of person, but when I get my hands out from being tied, I will let Sharmon experience what she did earlier, especially the feeling of being poisoned. Even if I was in her hands, I am not afraid. I didn’t stop fidgeting with my hands and hoping that I could remove it, and I didn’t fail; all of a sudden, the rope tied on my back came to lose. A smile formed on my lips when I freed my hands.
“Don’t move,” I whispered to Luna as I put a bandage on her face. She didn’t move, and I was confused why she was smiling at me; I just ignored her. When I finished bandaging Luna’s face, I immediately smiled, “It’s over,” I said, then stood up. “Can I sleep now, miss?” Luna asked. I know that she’s so tired from what happened, so I gently nodded that made her smile widened, “Thank you so much for treating my eyes, miss,” then she closed her eyes and then talked no more. I took the water basin full of blood and the medical kit. When I turned around, I saw Brielle, “Thank you so much for helping Luna, miss. And how did you know such a thing? Like medical pieces of stuff and treating something like that?” Brielle asked in astonishment. “I’m a nursing student, so I have some knowledge about treating people,” even though I haven’t had an official experience yet, at least I know something because of my passion for
“How can you be so sure?” I asked him when I heard about his answer. Suppose I will believe him, not now. I want to know Reign’s real opponent, and I don’t want to interfere, but I can’t just sit in the corner and always wait for him. Reign always helps me.“Because it was the truth,” I didn’t answer, and I can’t find the perfect words to ask him. I wondered why I’m talking with Shino right now, but all I feel is comfortable.Maybe, he looks like a chilling villain, but I admit that he was giving these good intentions, “How about Sharmon?” I asked him. Shino was staring at me, waiting to continue my words, “She almost killed me using poison and even stabbed a maid’s eye,” I continued as I tried to calm myself.“I’m sorry about my niece. She’s just like that. Sharmon has this psychological disorder, and
