All Chapters of Maid for the Billionaire : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Sorry, I mean, who are you?” It felt like I was stabbed with her response. My greatest fear had come true; she had forgotten me. “Do I know you?”“I’m- I’m-uh-” I stuttered, but my words were cut off as the door opened and Nads entered with fruits and lunch for us.“OMG! You’re awake!” Nads exclaimed, quickly running to hug Kalix. She must have noticed me watching, as she immediately backed away. “Sorry, got carried away.”I was about to mention her amnesia, but Kalix spoke first. “Nads, why are you saying sorry? Do you know this lady? I think she’s lost,” Nads froze, and the big grin vanished from her face.“Come on, stop playing, Kalix, can’t you remember her? She’s Samantha!”“You know her? Oh! I’m sorry!” She turned to me, “You’re Nads’s friend? I’m sorry, I didn’t know.” She seemed genuinely not joking.“Kalix, stop playing! Stop pulling pranks, you dimwit!”“Nads, can I step out for a moment?” I excused myself and quickly left the room. I heard her calling me several times, but

“Last stopover, we’ll arrive in Liberdad in about an hour,” Lita reminded me as we got off the bus. I went to the restroom because I needed to, while she smoked a cigarette. She said her tongue itches if she doesn’t smoke after eating, so I waited for her to finish.The wind was different here, and there were many establishments around, competing for attention. It was dizzying. Even though I’m twenty-three now, this is still the first time I’ve traveled for work.An hour and a half passed, and we got off in front of a low-cost apartment complex. I’m used to seeing places like this; there are many of them in town. People from the city work here, and they don’t have their own homes.“This is where I stay, you can stay here for now until you have your salary. Just leave when you find another place,” Lita said.“Don’t I stay with my employer?” I asked, thinking that maids usually stay in. Based on the researches I did, I mean, it’s city, I’m not dumb, but it will be easier if I’m accessibl

“Okay, All done!” I arranged the vegetables at the vegetable stall, placed the processed food in the chiller, and put the meat in the freezer. I left only the dishes I will cook, two viands: beef steak and adobo. They taste even better when they’ve been stored for a long time, the flavor really seeps in.I remembered the man earlier; people like that should be taken to a mental hospital. Why was he on the street? I thought only the provinces had that kind of thing, but it seems even in the city? And he expects me to wait for his explanation? With the hardships of life today, even if he doesn’t speak, it’s just a waste of effort, because what I need now is money.I chopped the garlic and onions. Luckily, there was some leftover beef from yesterday, so I decided to marinate it. I marinated it in soy sauce, calamansi, and pepper. I took it out of the fridge and fried it first before adding the sauce.“Ouch! Ouch! Damn! Wait! Damn oil splatters!” I was avoiding the oil splatters like craz

“I really wonder why he won’t answer my calls? He even said that this is his personal number, what if something happens to me? And I have no one to ask for help?”I felt like a crazy person talking to the plant in the pot in front of the condominium. I’ve been here outside for two hours now. I was planning to eat, but I’m not sure if I’ll get lost. I need to wait for the boss because I’m going to ask if I will really leave.Because of extreme hunger, I walked to find a skewer outside, I walked for almost ten minutes before finally seeing a vendor, I immediately joined the line and bought a hundred pesos worth, because of my extreme hunger.I also roamed around, but I didn’t go too far. I noticed that there were more and more people, and then I looked at my cheap watch, it was past five already.There were also some students, some with their parents, my gaze was fixed on a spot where there were two children, with their mother and father, walking, you could see the excitement and joy on

THE NEXT DAY, I woke up early again, unsure if I slept well; I still feel heavy, maybe because of what happened yesterday.I didn’t call to check on them again; I just want to focus on work for now; they’ll manage there. I’ll call when I send something; I already know what’s happening with them.It’s exactly five o’clock. When I got up, I immediately cooked bacon and eggs, made crab soup, and toasted leftover rice. I also heated water for coffee. Right at six, I heard the door of the workout room open, and shortly after, Sir Kalix entered the kitchen. He seemed to have showered; I could still smell it.“Good morning, Boss, have you eaten?” I said softly, placing the coffee in front of him where he would sit. He sat down without saying anything, just like the previous days.While he was eating, I cleaned the kitchen and washed the dishes. It was quiet, only the sound of me washing and the clinking of his fork on the plate. After a while, I heard his chair move, an indication that he ha
