#6

"Grandpa, what are you doing here?" I asked Grandpa with worry. He was the grandpa I helped out the other day.

I was worried about what Brent might do to him. Especially since Brent has changed a lot now. It wouldn't be surprising if he hurt someone else, just like what he did to me, even though I was once a part of his life.

"I'm fine, but what kind of clothes are you wearing? Tell me, who made you wear that! Was it Brent?!" he shouted angrily. Grandpa was surprising he was so brave, and it turned out he could be scary, too.

"Grandpa..." A soft voice came out of my mouth.

"That Brent really. I ordered him to bring you here so you could live here, too. And then, this is all he does." My eyes widened almost fully at what I heard. Do he and Brent know each other? My brain started to wonder now.

"Grandpa, what are you saying? I don't really understand what you are mentioning. I am confused," I said, feeling spaced out.

"My child, Bella, go change your clothes and wait for me here. I'm just going to go to my naughty grandson." I could still see how clutch his fists were.

"Huh?" I asked blankly again, but he didn't answer me anymore and completely left with his fists clenched.

I was left here alone in disbelief. What grandson? Did he call Brent his grandson? But before, I didn't know Brent had a Grandpa here. How stupid of me I didn't know anything even though I became Brent's wife.

I hurried back to my room. I just gasped while thinking about it. I looked for my clothes; good thing I brought an extra pair.

However, Brent might just get angry if I show myself to him right now. His anger at me earlier was intense. But Grandpa is also my boss, so I can't not follow his orders. It looks like I'm trapped now.

All I wanted was to be happy and be with my child. And then the situation would end up like this.

"Bella, you're being called!" Someone shouted, looks like it was a maid. I almost jumped out of my skin in shock.

"Okay, I'm going," I calmly replied to her.

I couldn't hear her anymore. She probably left. I quickly changed my clothes until I was done. I went out of the room again to head there. However, I am still not used to this house. I don't know much about this place yet.

"What is wrong with you! Who told you to make her your maid!" I heard this right away even though I was still a bit far. Grandpa was extremely angry.

"Grandpa, what else is she supposed to do here? Make her life better? What is she, lucky? Besides, that's just how she'll pay it back. Nothing is free nowadays. That's why she's not living here for free!" Even though I wasn't facing him, his words hurt a lot.

"Brent, do you hear yourself! Just don't talk like that. You weren't like that before, right? But ever since you lost your wife, you became like this!" My knees felt weak from what I heard.

It hurts I was the reason why he changed.

"Grandpa stop please! I already have Bella, I'm with her now so there is no space for other women in my life! So can you please stop forcing me on a woman I don't like! You just met her anyway, right? What did she feed you to make you like this!" Brent shouted again. This is the first time I heard Brent become like this to someone, and to his Grandpa at that.

"Stop! Because I feel like Bella is not the one you are with! Brent, this is all I will tell you. You cannot treat Bella like a servant because she is the one who saved my life. She is a good person, and besides, she is more deserving of you!"

I was about to walk away to leave. But, I bumped into a maid. That caused a noise in our spot. Oh no, Brent might do something to me.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," I said with my low voice..

"I'll be leaving now," I said in a soft voice as well.

"Are you listening to our conversation!" Brent shouted.
