"I... Haa.... No. Ah.." she was finding it very difficult to even construct a sentence.
"Fantastic"
"H..h.. huh?" What dose he mean by fantastic? she was confused. "I.. I don't mean to" she manage to say. "Am.. sorry"
"So you're the new personal maid, huh?" she only nodded, scared that her voice will actually betray her.
"Are you sure?" He asked unsure if this is actually the person. But then she nodded again.
"Open your mouth and speak!" He demanded angrily.
"Y.. yes" she replied as fears begin to creep her heart. how could he be so handsome and scary at the game time..?
Searching for his phone, he dialed Isabella's number. after three rings she picked the call.
"Did you have a dead wish? after everything I did for you, this is how you will repay me?"
Anger and disappointment was evident in his tone as he spoke.
With fears welling up her body, she muster the courage to ask the wild leopard in front of her.
"Can I leave now?" She asked, fears was written all over her face.
Upon hearing her voice, he spun around.
Hanging up the call, he looked at her his eyes as cold as ice block, if she was scared before, now she is terrified. She wanted to run out of the room with everything she have got.
"And who told you that you can leave?" She hurriedly took two steps back. Looking like a fragile little puppy that had just lost her mom. He started walking closer to her while she move back. She could feel her kidney vibrating down her abdomen in fear.
She moved back untill her back hit the wall. He place his hands on both sides above her head and lean closer.
"What do you think you are?" he asked in disguise.
Eyes brimming with tears, she blurted out "nothing. you have got the wrong person so please let me go!"
Buzz—buzz— his phone buzzed.taking the call he said "Isabella what now?"
Bella spoke from the other side of the phone. "What about Daniella?" He could sense from her voice that was scared.
"Who the hell is Daniella!" He demanded
"Your new personal maid, how is she doing? I hope you don't hurt her otherwise —"
" Otherwise what?" Isabella don't puch forward with the sentence and said. "Is she alright?"
"Hay?" He said diverting Daniella's attention. " What is your name?"
"Daniella Malvern" she said. the fears from earlier has ease a little bit but she was still scared.
He stared at her for two seconds and then turn back to his phone as if he don't hear her.
"Isabella, to you know this is for the dept you owe and you are giving me something like this?" He said, completely in disbelief.
" hay hay hay! do you think that I gave her to you as a sexual pleaser? I hope you aren't thinking on doing anything to her"
When he spoke his voice was husky "then you need to change her and give me something better rather than this ugly granny"
What????
She felt a pang of paint in her chest and it disappears as quickly as it came. Why would she get angry for something like this.
Well, the pain she felt was just a fleeting moment. Suddenly.
Bangiiii!!
Maximus looked at her with piercing eyes that was enough to make her kidney jump in fear. she has never been scared of anybody like this so why do this man give her the creeps.
She averted her gaze from him and look at her shaking hands. she has been holding the golden tray until now and it only fell because of fear. murmuring "am sorry" she showly bent down to pick the tray and the food that have scattered all over the floor.
She doubted if he hear the apology since she herself could berely hear herself.
"Unbelievable" he said looking at her as if she was some kind of pig in his room.
"Get out!" he said with anger welling up in his blood and he don't mind killing her here.
She was intimidated by him so without a second thought, she ran out for her life.
********
She went outside the mansion with tears brimming down her cheeks. what kind of a place has she come to? that bastard! She hated him! calming down her temper, a maid name serah approached her.
"Hi am serah"
"Hmm"
"Let me show you to your room" Ella quietly followed her. They even have a room for each maids? Well that's good.
Getting there, she stepped into a small room. It wasn't spacious through, but it was beautiful and she was okay as long as she wasn't sharing it. opening the wardrobe, she noticed it was full of maid uniform. Come to think of it, her uniform is different from the other maids. Hers is pink why theirs is blue.
Daniella Malvern is only twenty-one years old. Her father died when she was seven and from that day, her mother treated her as if she wasn't part of their family.
She sighed. deciding to make some friends here, she went to the bathroom to wash up.
After she was done, she put on a new pair of the so called maid uniform and went to gossip with the other maids in their room.
It was a long corridor with doors at every corner. She was normally a talkative so she knocked on each door. The once that were around came out and she waved at them telling them that she is new here.
Serah let her in to her room "you know you shouldn't be in here" she informed.
She ignored her "am Daniella Malvern" she introduced.
" Serah Q nice meeting you"
"Likewise" she replied. she is always friendly with everyone not minding your background even the maids in her home.
Walking to serah's bed, she sat down comfortably and looked up at serah. "Do you guys have an animal for a boss or something?"
Little did she know that maximus was right in front of the door hearing her.
