All Chapters of The Alpha Prince's Purchased Maid: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“No…umm…it’s fine. Thank you…” I managed to say while stuttering. The man chuckled lightly, and his voice sounded like music to my ears. The warmth of his hand around mine made my face feel hot. Without warning, he pulled me back up to my feet with ease. My heart raced madly in my chest, and I couldn’t tell if it was because he was close or because of my fall from earlier. His hand and his fingers are so beautiful…“What are you doing here?” he asked with interest. “I…I’m picking up the leaves that fell from this tree…” I replied while still confused about what was going on.Who is this man? “Why bother picking them up if more will just fall down?” he asked.Why indeed…?His face looked up at another leaf that was making its way down to the floor right to our side. My eyes followed where he was looking and rested on the falling leaf as well. When the leaf fluttered down close to us, his hand shot out and caught it. “For you…” he said as he handed me a leaf.The way he smiled so b

“I’m just doing my job…” the doctor said before her eyes glanced over at the man standing next to me. It looked like she was about to say something but then decided not to. I cocked my head slightly to the side questioningly, but she never said anything more. “You don’t have to worry about it. Just leave the cat here with me, I’ll take care of it until it can walk around like normal again,” the doctor promised me reassuringly. “Thank you so much. I was worrying how I could take care of it. Pets aren’t allowed in the maids’ quarters so…” I said apologetically before trailing off. “I completely understand. Don’t worry about it,” she said with a sweet smile. After leaving the cat with the kind doctor, we headed back outside. I felt immediately guilty on skipping out on my work to save a cat while my mind began wondering how many leaves have fallen all around the tree by now. Why did the tree have to shed so many leaves?I should get back to work now after handling so many distractio

I was quite confident before in my cooking abilities but now that the time came for me to serve him food, I was so nervous that my hands shook. Endless worries filled my mind, and I doubted if the food I had made would be good enough for him or if it would suit his tastes. After placing the food in front of him, I took a few steps back and stood to the side. “What are you doing? Sit down and eat with me,” the man said invitingly. I hesitated for a brief moment before taking the seat opposite him from the table. He must have thought that my reaction was strange because even I didn’t know why I acted like that. Since he’s not one of the masters that I was supposed to serve, I had no idea why I was starting to treat him as if he was one. He lifted a spoonful of the soup that I made up to his lips as I stared at him from across the table. My stomach felt like it was tied up in a tight knot as I waited for him to appraise the food that I made. “It tastes wonderful,” he said before he s

My heart skipped a beat again and I cursed myself silently in my head. He was quite stubborn, that was for sure. I nodded in resignation as I watched him sweep up the fallen leaves. I did my part in picking up some random leaves that had just fallen. It didn’t take long for him to finish sweeping up the leaves into neat piles while I admired his efficient movements. The leaves really just kept falling. I turned around and walked over to another that had just fallen before bending down to pick it up. “Thank…you…” I turned to thank him for his hard work before my words ended in a whisper. He was…gone. When did he leave? I looked around but couldn’t see him anywhere around anymore. Just as suddenly as he had appeared, the man seemed to have disappeared into thin air. “There you are…” a woman’s voice rang out loud and clear.I heard the sounds of soft footsteps approaching me and I turned around to see Lady Regina and Sophie walking towards me. They were probably here to see if I hav

In stark contrast to the loud crashing sound just now, everything was silent and peaceful. I tiptoed towards the door as I debated with myself whether I should open it. However, before I could make up my mind, the door swung opened with a loud slam. “Oh, it’s you…” The man from yesterday stood in front of me in the exact same look that he wore yesterday. White shirt, jeans, and sunglasses. He smiled sweetly at me as he cocked his head slightly to the side. “Hi…” I managed to say after snapping out of my state of shock. Why is he here? “Why are you here?” he asked in wonder. I was about to ask him the same thing. “I was tasked to help clean up the stables. What about you? Do you work here?” I asked. “You’re right. I do,” he replied as he strode past me and towards the horses. I turned as my eyes followed him. The horses reacted to his presence, and they suddenly appeared friendlier than before. The man reached out his hand and petted the neck of one of the horses as he smiled.
