Ezra's Point of view: Ever since I was wrongly accused of what I still don't know and stayed in the dungeon, I have become moody. All I wanted was what was best for the master ,but what I got in return was getting punished. Thinking about it made me angry at him but I couldn't do anything to him. I was just a lowly maid that can't be trusted by the master. Gloria had asked me what happened but I gave her no reply, I didn't want to talk about it and she understood and didn't ask again. The guards were punished and they died in the process that was supposed to make me happy,it only made me fear Chris. Naomi had come to my room to see me with sympathetic eyes,I don't know what to believe anymore. I nursed the cup of tea I held in my hand deeply in thought. "Ezra " Gloria called and touched my shoulder."What's wrong?" I asked."I have been calling you for a while now, finish your tea so that we can get to work" she said. I dropped the tea back on the table."And who will clean

Ezra's POVThe next two days were uneventful and I was so bored, we stayed at home mostly. Mirabel came over the next day to treat us to lunch, since our last lunch plan was cut short due to her cheating ex and her running off. We went to a local restaurant. We ordered food and Mirabel ordered for wine,I just stared at it in amazement. Gloria had argued with her on that but after all said she still ordered it and didn't listen to a word Gloria said. We were eating and Mirabel was busy gulping down the wine.I don't know what she's thinking while drinking all that wine."Easy Mira you will get a stomach ache" Gloria told her."Am fine, " Mirabel giggled. She had only taken two glasses of wine and she was already acting drunk.I really don't want to deal with a drunk. I hope she has a high alcohol tolerance."She never drinks I didn't know she doesn't have a high tolerance to wine" Gloria told me as she tried to drag the cup out of Mirabel's hand but Mirabel refused to let go,I conti

Chris's POVDisputing land issues is so stressful that's why I don't like doing it at all. It sucks out the life in me and gives it to someone else,but after I decided to go to the garden and rest while waiting for my lunch to arrive,I felt so tired. I loved this garden because it bought a sense of peace to me, my late mother planted this garden when she married my Father,so she cherished it a lot and loved it and we would all come here to have a picnic almost everyday when I was younger it felt really wonderful, my mother was a lovely woman, she was kind to a fault and always treated the slaves like they were humans, I cherished and loved her most ,how unfortunate and hard life is. My father was not present all the time and I felt upset about it,he did not pay Much attention to us and I was always upset about it,I wonders if maybe he had a family elsewhere but now that am in his shoes i finally understand how busy he was that was why he couldn't stay with us as we wanted,or went t

Chris POV I thought I had seen it all until Tony decided to visit me at my mansion. It was very surprising and shocking. He knows very well that I hate him so why bother coming. He had sent me invitations several times and I refused all that time,his carriage stopped outside my gate waiting for my word,there was murmuring in the mansion when after hours he didn't leave. Master George Stephen's father and Stephen came and he was let in . Tony started making a commotion, George asked what he came for I was unsure how to reply because I didn't know. George said he heard word of what was happening and came here , word was spreading fast he advised I should let him in. I told them to let him in,Tony sent them back to tell me he would come another time he had something urgent to do and he left."Weird man," Stephen said . We were sitting in the yard. George was in deep thought."Is something wrong?" I was concerned. He shook his head."Old age is taking a toil on me. I sp

Chris's POV The next day after going about my morning routine,I wanted to go hunting but I remembered Hannah would be coming over with the lady so I stayed. In the afternoon a case was brought to me ,a slave tried to escape ,I told them to whip him 20 times for being stupid and throw him into the dungeon. I know I am ruthless , that's not my business. Hannah arrived in the afternoon with the said Lady. I was sitting in the garden as they approached. I glanced over to them and Hannah smiled. The lady is gorgeous, but beauty isn't what I am looking for. She walked with elegance as well as arrogance, I liked such ladies that carried themselves with pride but I won't say that out loud. They got me where I was."Greetings master, my name is Anastasia," the Lady said. I nodded and Hannah gave me a disapproving look ,she was expecting me to reply."Hi C" Hannah said. I rolled my eyes. Must she be so childish? "Sit " I said. She thanked me and they both sat. I too
