Carla's pov
"Hello, mother!" I screamed at the top of my voice cause I haven't heard from them for a while now.
"hey, Carla is that you?? Gosh, you got me worried sick about you, why weren't you picking up your calls??" I rushed my words as I was dressing up at the same time.
"hey Mrs. Selena Rutherford I was bathing okay, it's my first time using a jacuzzi you don't expect me to jump outta it just to answer an ordinary call."
"By the way, I called to ask how are you doing over there. Hope no issues?" Her statement hit me making me quiet for some time. Let's say I don't know how to answer that.
"Hey, Carla are you there??"
"Of course, I am fine here just that my boss is being a jerk, I honestly don't know how I'll cope with that bugger head!"
Mum's tone of voice changed
"Carla doesn't tell me you won't be lasting in your job, have you forgotten the promise you made that.."
"Is that Carla ??" I overheard dad's voice from the background.
"Oh give me the phone... hello sweety!!"
"Daaadd!! I missed you so much! Wish you were here around me.." I whined like a baby I'm more fond of dad.
After spending a million years with dad on the phone, I decided to hang up.
"Okay bye dad, I'll find time to come pay you guys a visit but before I come to make sure you take that nasty daughter of yours Lisa outta that place.." All my life I have never been this hungry.
I saw so much stuff in the kitchen but I don't even know how to prepare any of them.
So thinking of what to do?
I went to the ranch and luckily I met Erika busy as usual.
"Hey, Carla what's up?"
"I'm fine, Well can you please show me to any Eatery around!" I ask.
She gave me the address and boom!! I came back to prepare. Good thing I have some cash with me. I put on baggy trousers and a crop top and then walked to the lot, I got on my bike and drove to the restaurant.
As I got into the eatery, it was so filled up, jeez this restaurant must be very expensive cause of its nature and everyone here was classy!
while looking around? My eyes came in contact with a particular guy who was staring at me with an unreadable expression on his face.
I couldn't help but stare back, he was claded in a bad boy outfit.
his hair was covering a part of his eye so couldn't get a clear view of his face.
After the starting match, I ordered for something my money could afford.
I was still eating when someone walked up to me.
"Hi, babe can I have a sit??" The familiar voice asked
I looked up to see the same guy who had been staring at me earlier. I couldn't see his face cause he was covering one part of his eyes.
"I am not in charge of any sitting department so the chair is vacant for everyone,"
he laughed taking the chair before me. Seriously what's funny?
"I've been observing you for quite some time now, so what are you doing here?"
"As you can see? I am watching a basketball match."
I scoff at the stupid question riding on my food.
The guy chuckled.
"Chill okay, I mean no harm okay!? Don't you remember me?"
He removes his hair from his face.
My jaw dropped at who it was.
Omg!
The Demi-God.
I battled my lashes while staring at him.
"You??"
"Yeah, I am the guy who saved you the other day at my brother's mansion, how come you never remember me??"
"Of course, I didn't see you earlier... I'm so sorry.. thanks for the other day.."
"So I guess you are Dawson's maid right??"
I nodded A yes and continued eating
": I wonder why someone as pretty as you will be working as a maid, you deserve someone more worth it.,"
Huh!!
"Actually Jeong I will rather do that than involve in some nasty acts, at least working as a maid
keeps my dignity.."
He beamed a smile while I roll my balls.
": Oh what's that on your hand??" He took the hand I had a cut on.
It was bleeding and I didn't realize it.
I pressed my lips tightly "Uhmm!! It was an accident.,"
"Fine, we need to treat your wound okay??"
He brought out his napkin, he tied it around my hand gently.
As I muttered a thank you...
we chatted for some time and somehow I felt free with him.
He kept on making fantasy about my pretty face and I couldn't help but blush inward
He is really so jovial, how am I even sure he is related to Dawson?
Soon I was done eating and after paying off.
It was time for me to leave. So I stood up.
"So can I give you a ride? Little damsel??"
"Oh no, actually I brought my scooter along.."
": Amit, how about we walk to the lot together??" He obliged.
"Sure why not!" I shrugged.
As soon as we got to the lot, I was about to enter my scooter when he held my arm, gently I was kinda curious.
"You are really the clumsy type, aren't you?" He whispered as He moved very close together, as I could feel his breath.
He held my check using his hand to wipe my lips, I felt my heart skip.
"You are so pretty, you know that?? So you shouldn't mess your lips up.." He winked seductively and I couldn't help blushing.
"Uhmm! O..okay!!" I pulled away immediately hoping onto my scooter.
I drove all the way home, as I couldn't help smiling at anything...
That dude is quite opposite of his brother.
He is so lovely. but wait, why don't they get along??
I entered the mansion with so many smiles on my face, for the first time someone calls me pretty.
Wow!
I hopped down to my room.
I sat down on the bed preparing to go for some cleaning when the door burst open suddenly with someone walking in holding a tray of food.
"Who are you?"
I was startled and I guess he was as well startled.
"I am Rex and I was asked to deliver this to this house by Sir Dawson but who are you?"
"I run the affairs of the house for him."
he nodded then he went to place the food on the bed.
"What are you doing??" I asked.
"I am following Dawson's order, I'll be on my way now... I'm Dawson's cook.." he said and left.
Wait Dawson's order??
Why will Dawson ask him to deliver food here??
it was ramen 🍜 and beef strips.
it was so tempting and inviting.
I sat down beside it thinking.
Did he get this for me??
Oh no...
he can't
He hates me.
By the way, Rex didn't mention that...
my tummy started singing and I couldn't take it anymore.
I guess I'll just have to wave off any negative thoughts after all something must kill a man.
I got a very chilled water from the fridge and sat down to enjoy it!
Time skip!
I sat alone in the living room late evening, Dawson is yet to be back.
Shortly after, the door opened with a very pretty lady walking in she was wearing a black gown reaching half her thigh and her glowing hair falling freely behind her, her make-up was extreme.
"Who are you?" I asked her standing up and that was when she noticed me.
"OMG! My guess you are a maid!"
"Isn't it obvious? you know you are very beautiful but too bad it's such a waste cause you've traded your manners, for every reasonable person you ought to knocked on the door before entering."
She glared at me as I I went to close the door which was left open.
"Whatever where is Dawson?" She rolled her balls.
"He's not around!" I replied twitchingly.
"Oh really?? Dawson left the office hours ago and should definitely be at home now, I know brats like you are petty liars probably developing soft spots for your boss thereby hindering his female visitors from seeing him!"
She pushed me out the way as she made her way through the stairs!
Wait what's she trying to say? And who's she to have had the guts to barge into Dawson's mansion just like that?
I watched her as she climbed up the stairs and came back later looking really angry.
"Where the hell is he?" She yelled pissed off as she sat on one of the sofas.
"Hey maid, get me a vodka over there!"
She ordered and pointed to a bar and I laughed.
"You are not my guest miss and In fact, I don't even know you so go get whatever you want to get yourself!"
,
I went heading for the stairs cause I don't want to create a scene in Dawson's mansion.
The lady present is already making my blood foam.
I was already halfway when I overheard her say something that struck me so hard.
"IF YOU WANT TO DIE, CROSS THAT LINE"
I slowly turn to see her fighting with the phone her hand clearly angered.
"You want to know me right? But let me, first of all, give you a slight hint about my boyfriend.
He is dangerous and brutal to anyone who dares assault his girlfriend cause he doesn't joke with me, just step on his line and you don't want to see the monster in him,
And unfortunate for you, you just touch the pupil of his eyes, I'm Dawson's girlfriend and no mortal has ever double-crossed my path,
I'll make sure you pay at the order of Dawson and since you are his maid things are gonna work out well, you see this.."
she showed me A contact on her phone.
"Just one call to Dawson and you are dead, if you think you can hide then you are only inviting woe to you and your family just you try!" She was already dialing, the line.
saying that I was scared is an understatement!
I was short beyond words!
I started biting my nails.
No doubt what she said is true Cause Dawson had been so brutal to me.
Gosh!! Can't help shaking to death right now.
