"he is scary but I don't think we should be talking about him at the moment" she disagree. She didn't want to be put into trouble my this newbie.
"You are right. Why should we talk about an animal, when we have better things to chat about" she said chuckling slowly.
Thirty minutes earlier
"Call a maid to clean this mess!" Maximus said walking out of the room. "Where is she?" he asked one of the maids who was passing by.
She shook her head, unsure of who he was referring to. Ignoring her, he walked to the house keeper and asked. "Where is my new personal maid?"
"I sent serah to take her to her room, sir"
"Where?"
She lead him to Ella's room but getting there, she wasn't inside. Asking one of the maids who directed them to serah's room. The housekeeper wanted to knock but maximus stopped her "wait"
He overheard everything Ella was saying and that made his blood boil. How dare she insult him like that and even calling him an animal? his anger intensified as he kicked the door open. he went inside pulling Ella by the hand."who are you calling an animal?"
She was shocked, with wide eyes that was about to pop out. "W..w.. what?" She was terrified.
How the hell did he get here? can't he just give her some breathing space, did she have to live in fear now? how the hell did life turn out to be so pathetic difficult for her?
All this questions was just popping from her mind now. "W.. what are you talking about?"
The nest thing, she couldn't breathe. He has grip her neck very hard.
"How dare you!" He said as serah and the housekeeper moved backward.
"You must be ready to die" the housekeeper reluctantly walked out of the room followed by serah. Maximus loosen his grip and pushed her. She landed on the floor with her knees. The pain was making her knees shake. the apprehension in her grew every passing second.
Is this man really going to kill her?
"If you ever come to this room ever again, then don't blame me for being rude" he warned. If there is one thing be heated was beating women and he didn't know what he did this for, he has his own way of punishing women who offend him.
Truth to be told, he wasn't angry for what she was saying because he knew he was a monster he was only angry because she came here which actually sounds crazy in his own ears.
She did not say a word and just slowly stood up. "Let's go" and with that he walked away.
Without thinking, she followed behind.
They went to the sitting room and Ella was surprised to see Mrs Florida.
"Hello Daniella" she greeted
Lord? It hasn't even been a day and she is already seeing this woman's face.
"We are going to a party tomorrow and she will be the one to prepare you for it" he informed.
"I can do it myself" she quickly declined.
"I am not asking you I am telling you"
What???
He looked at her only to discover that she was glaring at Mrs Florida.
Do they know each other? Why else will she glare at Mrs Florida like that.
'it seems like she is more interesting than I thought' he thought to herself.
"You can go to your room now" not wanting to offend him more than she has done she quickly went to her room. When she was gone maximus ask Mrs Florida "do you two know each other?"
"No, we just met today" she replied and he smirked mischievously.
********
The nest morning she woke up and ran to the kitchen. The food here won't let her sleep. the kitchen was big and spacious. The maid were already performing their magic in cooking and Ella inhaled the graceful smell.
"You guys really cook well" she blurted out.
She was feeling really hungry and before she could take anything to eat...
"Maidi"
No no no! this was her beauty morning! How dare he ruin it!
she don't answer after all she is not the only maid in here.
"Maidi" he called the second time and still no response, he smirked devilishly. The kitchen was quiet and no one dared to make a sound.
In fact he was enjoying this, what a sweet maidi he has. he is never going to give her back to Isabella. Ella has already started eating and ignore him but her heart and kidney are already jumping for help.
He walked inside the kitchen and hold her hand forcefully making her to look at him.
He almost let out a laugh but held it in. her eyes look like a puppy.
"I was calling you" he said.
"Huh?"
"I said I was calling you, why don't you answer?" He asked but there was no sign of anger in his tone or his face.
"Oh.... I didn't hear my name" she pretend.
"But you heard me right?" she reluctantly nodded. she hated people who make her feel uncomfortable and all she wanted is to stay away from this man.
"So, why are you being so disobedient?"
Huh???
She looked at him in awe. What dose this man take her for? A kid or something?
Not wanting to experience what happened yesterday, she quickly apologize.
"Am sorry, sir...." and he smirked mischievously.
He was really having fun he will be sure to thank Isabella later.
"Don't you know what a maid needs to do in the morning?"
"Huh? b.. but am in the kitchen" she said looking confused.
Is this man playing with her or something?
"You are my personal maid so ..." he dragged the syllable 'personal' making her heart race.
"So what do I have to do?" she ask.
"By this time you have to be in my room making me feel comfortable" he replied.
This man! he was enjoying this.
"L.. like how?"?
"Good question. you need to help me with my bath now, let's go"
"...." Ella.
