"It is for real? H_he's married?" Maria, one of the maid said in shock to her fellow servants who had told her about their master's wife. The girl was busy in the kitchen that she didn't know what was happening outside of the kitchen.
"I too thought they were rumours. I even helped with her gown, you know. She seems to be a nice person," replied another maid, Sarah. Never in their dreams they had expected their crush would marry someone.
"Now I understood why they call it a crush," Maria mumbled with a pout.
"Why?" asked Sarah in a low voice, they didn't want the other three servants to listen to their conversation.
"Because your crush, will crush your heart one day," Maria whispered, the two young girls were cleaning the table as they were ordered by the head servant.
"Didn't I tell you, he was going to marry," smirked Peter, interrupting the girls, "I won, where's my money?" he asked about the bet between him and the two girls.
"Ahh! Loosing my one month salary is more heartbreaking," Maria groaned. As they were talking about their bet, an elder woman came near them and cleared her throat which startled the three of them.
"Do you want to assign more work since you all did your works," came a strict voice of Grace and the three dispersed back to their unfinished works.
The door was opened by Aaron for Elizabeth to enter into one of the rooms. It was pitch dark until the lights were switched on by Aaron himself, the maids didn't follow them because they weren't given any order yet, they knew he didn't like people entering into his room without his permission. The room was scented with flowers which would give a pleasant feeling if one enters into his room. Elizabeth looked around and noticed that the color of the walls and the bed cover were in blue. Even the curtains were in blue with a combination of white.
"We'll live in a beautiful house and our bedroom will be coloured with your favorite blue," it was the voice of a guy from her memories. The girl blushed at his words.
"And what about our marriage?" she asked him.
"I would wait for you at the altar and look at you without blinking my eyes. You would be the most beautiful bride on that day, wearing a white gown and..." the guy slid his hand into his pocket and took out a box. "with this pendant," he said.
"It's a diamond pendant! " she exclaimed, speechless at the sight of a shining diamond in his hand.
"I want you to keep it with you and wear it on the day of our wedding, Lizzy," he said.
Every word he told made her heart flutter and his every action made her fall for him a little more. He was the only person who called her Lizzy. He often made fun of her calling her 'Lizzy the Lizard' to tease her, as the days passed she got used to the name and she liked being called Lizzy by him. Because it was a name given by him to her.
"I will," she replied, her eyes filled with tears of joy.
"Turn around," and she did.
"I love it," she said, after he wore it on her neck.
"I'm glad that you like it," the guy in her memory replied.
She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the sound of running water in the bathroom. She looked around for her luggage but she found it nowhere. She wanted to ask Aaron but he left to take a bath without a word.
"Madam, you're dresses are in the wardrobe," said the head servant, Grace, who had just entered into the room after knocking the door. Aaron had already instructed Grace before coming to the room.
"Oh, thank you," Elizabeth replied.
"What do you want to have for dinner Madam," the maid asked politely.
"I don't think I wouldn't be having anything tonight, thank you," replied Elizabeth. The maid bowed to leave from the room.
"Could you bring me my purse, I left it in the car," Elizabeth requested her.
The maid gave a smile and went to get her purse. After the maid handed over the purse to Elizabeth, she took out her phone and saw the messages she received. She saw Roseline's message.
*I Miss You Elza*
Elizabeth who read the message smiled.
*I miss you too Rosie *
Elizabeth replied.
*Are you fine?*
Came an Instant reply from her sister.
Elizabeth smiled a little more and replied.
*I'm fine. Take care of yourself. I have to go now, will speak to you later.*
She put her phone aside when she heard the bathroom door being opened. Elizabeth saw him coming out of the bathroom. His wet hair fell on his forehead and only a towel was covered on the lower part of his body while his chest was naked to her. She stared at him without blinking for a few seconds until he spoke to her.
