That morning Eryk and two of the staff at Fragrant Potion were enjoying coffee on the balcony. Each of them was cracking jokes while holding a coffee cup in their hands. That's what Eryk and his subordinate staff did when Kent had not yet arrived at the office. Not long after, the arrival of their boss's black metallic car caught the attention of the two women standing with him."Wow, you see, Marice, my Hot Widower is here," Lidya said with a big smile, like a teenage girl seeing her favorite guy.All the employees in the company were crazy about Oliver Kent's charm. The age lines that appeared on the man's face did not diminish his good looks at all. Instead of reducing, the age streaks on the man's face added to his good looks.Instantly, the woman named Marice threw a look of protest at her partner while shaking her head quickly."No, no, no! That handsome widower is mine!" Eryk, who was stung by jealousy, snorted in annoyance. He even coughed as he was about to ask the two women
Kent scrutinized the girl's beautiful face. His attention was drawn to the luscious lips he had kissed before. Instantly his blood rippled and spread throughout his body. Seeing that the girl was asleep, Kent could have taken advantage of the situation. But he soon realized, there was something else he had to do. He placed a peck on the top of Lucia's head before finally placing the girl's body on the bed. "Keep an eye on that girl. I have other things to take care of." Kent commanded the three maids who were on the corridor terrace of the servant room. Their lips couldn't stop talking about the poor girl."Yes, sir," the three maids replied in unison.When Kent had gone away, the three maids entered and sat down around the sleeping Lucia."What else did Lord Eryk do to her?" Janne looked questioningly at Matilda, for it was she who had escorted Lucia to the room. "I don't know either. There was an argument and Lucia was crying. It is possible that. Sir Eryk abused her again." Mati
A few minutes ago...The sound of a knock on the door from outside the room made Lisa who was spurring her movements on Eryk's body stop. The couple then turned towards the source of the sound with sour faces because they were disturbed. "Ignore it, Darling, let's continue," Eryk pulled Lisa's arm to hold her away, to continue their hot activities. But she turned her head with a look of protest."I hate it when your servants are always interrupting," Lisa replied as she released Eryk's hold on her arm. Looking at Lisa who was trying hard to turn on her bed that night, Eryk smiled with satisfaction. He then nodded softly to let her meet someone outside the door.Lisa roughly pulled back the blanket to cover her naked body. Grumbling, the woman opened the door and let out a scathing diatribe to the person on the other side of the door."You can deliver food for us later! Don't the servants here know what privacy is?"Lisa's lips parted as soon as she saw the girl standing at the door
After a few days at Fragrant Potion, Lucia began to adapt to her new work environment. The young girl had already adapted to regulate her every expression and heartbeat whenever she had to deal with the figure of Oliver Kent. It was hard and excruciating, but the girl chose to endure. Finding a job is never easy.Lucia took wide strides as she arrived at the courtyard of the hospital where Henry was being treated. A perfect smile graced her beautiful face. She wanted to see her father immediately. If there's a saying that family is home, then home for Lucia means meeting Henry.The sound of the cell phone made Lucia stop her steps. Remembering that her father was lying weakly on a sickbed, Lucia quickly pulled out her cell phone from her bag. Her eyes widened when she saw the hospital's phone number on the screen.She quickly picked up the phone."Hello?" greeted Lucia nervously. The girl placed one free hand in front of her chest. Preparing in case what the person on the other side o
Lucia and Kent worked in silence. Occasionally Lucia stole a glance at Kent. The girl's blood rushed, her heart pumping hard. Up close, the age lines on the man's face seemed to add to the charismatic air of Oliver Kent Silverlake. 'Hah, Mr. Silverlake. So cool, calm, and soothing.' Lucia whispered. Lucia unconsciously stared at the man, while her hands and feet worked in harmony while moving the mop. 'Wake up, Lucia. That man is even more worthy of being your uncle!' Kent, who felt ignored, finally turned to the only girl in the room with him. "Stop looking at me like that, Lucia. Do you find anything strange about this handsome face, hmm?" said the man as he flashed a smile, while one of his forefingers was pointed at her face. That made Lucia's heart beat even more uncontrollably. "Ah, not at all, sir," said Lucia with a gasp, as she returned her attention to the motion of the mop wiping the floor.'Damn! Should have kept your eyes open, Lucia!' Lucia cursed herself, as Kent la
"You idiot, you're supposed to use your eyes when you walk!" screeched Eryk, turning his gaze from the phone screen to the person he had just collided with. The man's face hardened, his eyes turning red. For a moment, his eyes narrowed to look at the girl who was still sitting on the floor, to make sure that this time his vision was not wrong. He hoped that the girl in front of him just happened to look like Lucia."Ah, sorry sir," said Lucia who now chose to look down and get up.Upon hearing the girl's voice, Eryk's jaw instantly hardened. His one hand holding the cell phone clenched into a fist as if to crush the flat object. Eryk's other hand swung in the air, about to shower Lucia's face with slaps. But Via's words gave the girl Lucia a chance to escape. "Come with me, Miss," Via, who could read the tension between the two, then tried to keep Lucia away from Eryk's fury. The tall woman then pulled on one of Lucia's arms, so that Lucia could break eye contact with Eryk who conti
