What???
No no no!! She hope it isn't what she's thinking.
"How an I help you with your bath? you aren't a kid..." she trailed, glancing at him and she ask with curiosity eyes. "or did your parents spoiled you to the extent that you can't bath on your own?"
"...."
This woman! for what seems like forever someone is making him speechless? and also embarrassed.
"No! of course not. It is you who don't have Brian" he never expected nor did he pictured it, that this woman would actually humiliate him in front of his savant.
How will there take him for, from now on? he didn't show any expression on the outside but on the inside he was burning with rage. he knows how he will handle this situation to his satisfaction. He had the upper hand in this anyway.
With a blank face and a husky voice he said. "Let's go so we could finish on time"
"G-go where?" she asked with Shakey hands.
"the bathroom of course" he said in a nonchalant tone.
She could feel her heart skipping many beats. she nodded reluctantly and followed him. She went to his boring room. Nothing was interesting in the room just a normal arrangement. "What are you waiting for? common let's go to the bathroom" with that he head straight to the bathroom and she followed as usual. All the arrangements for the bath were already prepared by some maids. So he removed his clothes and it was left with his black boxers. she quickly turned around.
He soak his body inside the bathtub that was full of leather he signaled her to get the sponge and get started. she finally turned around.
Is this even for real?
She was stunned, just standing there like this was a joke. slowly bending down and taking the sponge, she glanced at him.
She was anticipating a hint of jest but his face remain as expressionless as ever. "Where am i... Starting from" Maximus relaxed his neck on the edge of the bathtub, and lazily lifted one of his hands. 'of course it's the hand' Ella thought to herself. she took his hand and started brushing in short vertical lines slowly.
When she was done with the so called 'muscular hand' that was making the hair behind neck stand straight. she moved to the other side repeating the same thing.
She was done with the two hands. no, two 'muscular hands' she silent– chuckled. No doubt he has a muscular body with his honey milk skin that every woman wants but Ella obviously don't want it.
His chest was so broad that Ella has to be cautious not to fall on him if not, she would disappear the moment she landed.
He was damn handsome but Ella knew she could just admire him from afar.
"Did you had surgery?" she suddenly asked. unable to hold her curiosity any longer. how could a human be this handsome? no wonder he called her an ugly granny.
Is she really that ugly?
"No" he answered with a cold sharp voice.
It was as if she was going to pass out soon, because even her knees has started shaking.
She moved to his legs and started walking on it. She don't dare cross the knee and just keep doing her job. His otherworldly beauty was making her feel uncomfortable, plus she was bathing him. it sounds laughing, this man was indeed shameless. ever since she entered into this bathroom she felt uneasy but she tried to mentain a calm facade.
But her body never fails to betray her. her heart was pounding hard in her chest while her kidney was vibrating in fright.
When she was done she mumbled.
"Am done" maximus open his mouth to say something but before he could say anything, something landed right on his face. And the nest thing he heard was the door sliming hard, making the windows vibrate due to the force. he was stunned. "..."
What the hell just happened? did she just throw the sponge on his face and walk out on him?
With eyes burning with fury, he stood up and walked to the shower stand. the water elegantly rolled down his body. When he was done he went to his room to put in his clothes and stride into the sitting room. He was about to go berserk. the first person he saw was Mrs Florida.
Without thinking he walked towards her and grip on her neck. "Where the hell is she?"
He demanded gripping harder as he lifted her with one of his hands. Seeing what was going on, the housekeeper quickly blurted.
"She is in her room, sir." he let go of Mrs Florida and head directly to Ella's room. reaching there, he pushed the door open with his legs.
Ella was lying on the bed. She was under the covers coiled up hugging her knees and crying. He was utterly speechless and surprised at this sudden show.
He reluctantly walked to the bed, all his anger from earlier had subsided but he kept a blank expression.
"Why are you crying?" he asked nonchalantly. but she didn't answer as if know one was even inside the room.
"Why the hell are you crying?" he asked, this time his voice was a little bit high and he was losing his patients. he has never been patient with anyone so why is he even patient with her?
He shoved her to look up at him. She sure looked like a little puppy.
"Maidi, why are you crying?"
"I.. "
"Speak!"
"Nothing, I don't want to!!" She suddenly screamed.
What???
"Are you going insane? do you want me to call the doctor?"
" I don't want to! I don't want to!!"
What was she talking about? He really does not have any clue.
"I don't want to" this time she said calmly.
he looked at her and he was trying to figure out what was wrong but he couldn't since he knows nothing about her. maybe she was just a cry baby.
"are you sick in the brain?"
She immediately shook her head.
"No l don't want to bath with you"
Maximus "...."
She actually ran out because she imagined she and maximus bathing in the same bathtub and thought she was losing her mind or it might actually happened. that's why she immediately ran out.
