"If I let this matter out and take it to court, I can make sure that no company would take you in. You won't be employed except in some shabby places that could barely pay your everyday expenses. Do you think you would be able to survive and pay me at the same time for ten years?" Suzie paled. To think that this man who had the same blood as her dig into her past and threaten to ruin her life more. How ridiculous this is. That's right. She had indeed dark past and dark jobs. As someone who had no family or good background, the high school graduate Suzie could only take some job on the streets. When her grandmother became ill, she even took some risky jobs from illegal companies. Although she made sure she won't be involved in drugs and human trafficking, there were a lot of things that those companies had done that were against the law. When she became more experienced, that's when she only manage to take some seven days jobs that have some good standing in the industry. But like

The way to the Albrecht mansion was silent. Suzie glanced at Jonathan who was in the passenger seat. The man was probably in his late twenties. He looked dignified but polite. Perhaps, Suzie could gain information from him. "How long have you been working for the Albrecht family?" Jonathan slightly glanced at Suzie through the rearview mirror and answered, "I have been living in the Albrecht Mansion since birth. I grew up there and started working officially as soon as I could read and write. My whole life is dedicated to the Albrecht family as my previous generation did." Suzie: "...." 'What is this royalty?' A superior family was served by another family loyally as if the latter were bound by life contract. Suzie thought this kind of arrangement ended a long time ago. It's the modern era now. As someone who lived a commoner's life, Suzie doesn't understand how these wealthy families work. But this was great. This man named Jonathan must know everything in the Albrecht f

Suzie never had a childhood. With only her irresponsible grandmother as her guardian, the young Suzie had no choice but to mature early and do some trivial work so they won't starve to death.In the village where Suzie lives, a lot of families who owned huge lands needed more hands to do farm work. So even though her hands were smaller than others, she was given the 'privilege' to work. But her income was the smallest. Only ten pounds of rice every week.For that ten pounds of rice, the six-year-old Suzie had to wake up before the sun rises. She had to look after the livestock, tend to some crops or be the runner of other workers all day. She could only go home when the sky started to darken. It was such a tiring and exhausting life that the young Suzie had no time to play with other kids or have the leisure time of her own.The only moment that the young Suzie felt like a child was when the once-a-year festival of their village comes. Everyone was not allowed to work. So she had ti

Javier had wanted to push away the hands that were wiping his face. But his limbs remained unmoving.He could only curse.No matter how much time had passed, he could not get used to other hands touching him. He could only be helpless as the other party do what they want to him."I'll be taking off your shirt." The soft voice of the woman sounded above him. Unlike the others who had taken care of him before, this newcomer was too noisy.What did she say her name was?Ah, right Suzie.This woman just came out of nowhere and told him that she was his wife. How did the Thomson family allow their precious daughter to marry someone a half-dead like him?Was the Thomson family in decline?However, thinking back, wasn't the Thomson family's only daughter named Bianca?So who is this Suzie?Javier had a lot of time. And the only way for that endless time to pass was to think. His world was only darkness. He had no concept of time or day here which made him confused. If not for the sound of

.....Suzie started to clean the house. She first started to clean the kitchen and the bathroom. She wasn't able to clean the whole place because everything here was a mess and full of dust. Especially the second floor. Except for the master's bedroom where the elder master was, everything was dirty.Before the sun completely set, Suzie started to prepare her dinner. She used the pot that she had scrubbed many times and cooked rice.The old fridge was empty. Fortunately, she saw some plants growing in the front yard. She believed the potatoes there hadn't been dug up.So she took a rusty sickle from the storage downstairs and dug up a potato. While digging up, she realized that the soil here was fertile and that a lot of edible plants were planted here. Such as onions, garlic, and chilies.Suzie believed that the previous tenant of this old cabin planted all these here for self-sustaining. Perhaps that's why there was a bamboo wall and bamboo gate with the height of the human's waist
