The next dayLucienne woke up early enough, she had not been able to get enough sleep, maybe due to stress or maybe it was just her not being used to this place at all.She looked over at Diana who was sleeping on the couch in the room. Even though Diana had been given a room in the mansion, she insisted on staying in the same room with her.Lucienne got off bed and took gentle steps into the bathroom, to avoid waking Diana up.Lucienne washed her face and looked at the mirror for a second, her lips pressed into a line before she quickly looked away and walked out of the bathroom.She sat by the study table, grabbed a pen and a paper and began to map out how her life would be in this mansion and how she would be getting what the Hillards needed."What are you doing?" Lucienne heard Diana's voice from behind her."Nothing much" she replied but Diana was already by her side, staring at the paper on which she was writing."What's this?" Diana asked, picking up the paper." That's my plan
"Hello Nancy" Lucienne waved at the older lady who quickly gave her a big smile."It's you, Mrs. Winston.""Yes, it's me" Lucienne smiled."Hello" Nancy waved at Diana who responded with a smile and a nod."Do you need anything?" Nancy asked, taking her gaze back to her young master's wife."Yes, I just want to ask you a few questions, are you free right now?" Lucienne asked."Of course I am, you are my young master's wife, how can I not be free?""Thank you Nancy""What do you want to ask me?" Nancy asked."How long have you been working here?" Lucienne asked and Nancy raised a brow, wondering why the need to know how long she had been working here."I have been working here for eight years. Since I was 39" she replied."You are 47?""Absolutely right. Just 19 years older than young master" Nancy replied and Diana could not help but feel that there was something about Nancy giving that detail but Lucienne did not think of it."That's great, you must know some things about him then?"
Lucienne returned into the room and immediately she did, the beautiful smell of the body spray filled the nose of Diana."You smell really good" Diana noted out immediately."Yes, found a body spray in his room and I just used some of it""But you were not supposed to touch anything.... But it's fine, he can't get married over just a bit of body spray""I thought so too" Lucienne affirmed and then a phone beeped.Lucienne moved to her bed and under the pillow, pulled out her old phone. The phone she used as Lucienne Gray.She instinctively tried to open the phone with her fingerprint but it didn't open.She blinked twice and inputted her password, opening the phone.It was a mail that she had been waiting for, the mail from Winston's Corporations.She had gotten the job.A happy smile parted her lips, followed by a quick transition of her facial expression.She could not go for the job, she was not Lucienne Gray who applied for a job at Winston's Corporations, for now but Cherry who w
Lucienne looked at Damien who looked absolutely irritated."I asked, what did you use?""I... I only made green tea" she mumbled, getting slightly terrified by his face."Don't joke with me, Cherry!""I... I am not. What do you mean?" She mumbled.Damien grabbed her and made her sand straight, he leaned closer to her, closing his eyes with his face barely buried in her neck."You used the body spray!" He affirmed."I... Is this about that?" Lucienne asked."How could you use it?!""I... I... I just used a little bit of it""Don't touch my things! Isn't that a clear rule?""I... I am sorry" her eyes filled up, terrified.Damien closed his eyes shut, took in a deep breath and let out the same before opening his eyes."You have no idea what you just did""I am sorry" her voice shook."Just don't touch my things, do you understand?""Y...yes" Damien glared and stormed away, meeting Diana at the stairs."Go help your lady" he said to her and continued the walk to his room.He got into his
Damien was drying his hair with a small towel. He was in his bath robe and a suit lay on the bed, he was going to be wearing that for the day.On the floor by the bedside were his shoes.A knock came on the door and his lips formed into a small barely noticeable pout."Who is there?" He called out."It's me, young master" the familiar voice of Nancy came out clear and loud."Come in" he replied and the door opened, Nancy stepping in with a smile on her face."Good morning young master" The older lady greeted still with the smile on her face.Damien ignored the greeting like he usually did and simply proceeded to blow dry his hair."Mrs. Winston, your wife should be able to help you with little things like that" Nancy mumbled and Damien's gaze turned towards her."What are you trying to say?""I just mean... The life of a single man should be different from that of a married man but I can see no...""You're tired of working here already, Nancy?" He cut her off and she quickly pressed h
Lucienne took in a deep breath and was about to tell Diana that they should at least step into the room when a deep masculine and familiar voice called out."Cherry" Lucienne gulped down hard when she heard his voice, it was Lucas."Good morning" Diana greeted quickly with a small bow whole Lucienne tried to gather courage to face him."He doesn't know me, I am Cherry now, I am Cherry" she said to herself, in an attempt to calm herself down."Cherry" Lucas called and tapped her shoulder gently.Lucienne trembled slightly and slowly turned towards him, trying as much as possible to keep a straight face."Good morning Cherry" Lucas greeted with a smoke that Lucienne so much wanted to wipe off his face."Good... Good morning" she could not stop herself from stuttering."Are you okay? You seem a little bit shaken...""I am fine. Thank you for your concerns" she rushed her words and turned to leave but Lucas held her hand.Lucienne suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe properly,
Lucienne had skipped breakfast along with Diana and now that it was time for lunch, she was very hungry.Diana had gone out in search of her body so Lucienne was the only one home, well except for the fact that Lucas was still around.Lucienne walked to the dinning room and was glad that lunch had already been dished out.She quickly sat before the meal with a soft and glad smile on her face.She was about to dig into the meal when she heard that same familiar voice."Cherry? Sister in law?" Lucienne took in deep breaths and gulped down as Lucas sat opposite her, dropping a small box on the table."Yes, Lucas" her voice trembled but at least she did not stutter."Are you okay?" Lucas asked and she bobbed her heard in positive response."Yes, I am""You seem a little bit terrified, you do not like this place?" Lucas asked her."Uhm... I guess so" "I got you a gift" Lucas pushed the small box towards her.Lucienne raised her hands that had slipped to her sides earlier back to the tabl
Diana opened the door of the room with a mystified look on her face. Her hands were folded under her breasts, her gaze on the tiled floor."You are back" Lucienne got off the edge of the bed."Yes I am" she mumbled."So what did you find? Anything worth it?" She asked eagerly but before Diana could give a response, her stomach grumbled from hunger.She had not had anything to eat all day because she was super busy."I am super hungry""I will go get you something to eat first" Lucienne proceeded towards the door but Diana grabbed her arm, holding her back."You are the boss and I am the maid, how could I have you get me food? I will just go and get it myself" she said to Lucienne."Getting food is not that much of a big deal, is it?""I'll go get my meal myself" Diana insisted."Okay then" Lucienne gave in and returned to sitting on the bed.Diana walked out of the room.*"Where did mum say the honeymoon will be?" Damien asked as the car parked in front of his mansion."It will be at
