Marquez was silent hearing Thomas's narrative, he was sure that the young man who locked him had other intentions and intentions behind his desire to marry Jennifer.
There's no way that Thomas really wanted to marry his daughter, he just wanted to torture Jennifer through the marriage.
"No! I won't give you my blessing!" reject Marquez.
Thomas turned around while raising his eyebrows, he also put his hands in his pants pockets and walked slowly towards Marquez.
"You think I need your blessing? All I have to do is threaten your daughter and she will agree to marry me. With or without your blessing I will marry her!" Thomas whispered in Marquez's ear, making the old man glare.
"You crazy bastard!" Marquez shouted as Thomas left the iron bars where he was being held.
Thomas ignored Marquez's screams and continued to walk out, when he was walking towards the kitchen he accidentally bumped into Jennifer who had just finished her assignment. Thomas smiled lopsidedly at Jennifer who now had to become a servant in his mansion, even though she was a princess who if she wanted anything just said and pointed.
However, look now! Jennifer was on the same level as the girls who worked at Thomas's mansion. Jennifer lowered her head when she saw Thomas' meaningful smile, she knew that the man wouldn't let it go that easily. Jennifer had no doubt guessed that Thomas had other plans, but Jennifer didn't know what they were.
"Clean my room!" said Thomas.
One of the maids who was with Jennifer nodded and was about to walk after Thomas, but the man turned around and said that he wanted Jennifer to clean his room.
"Jennifer!" Thomas firmly made the girl immediately approach Thomas, while her colleague immediately said goodbye to do other work.
They both walked in silence, only silence accompanied them. Not a single word was spoken from either Thomas or Jennifer, only the sound of their footsteps broke the silence of the mansion.
"Clean my room until there is not a single dust in there! If I still find dirt then be prepared for Marquez to receive the punishment!"
Jennifer is surprised, why is she the one who is guilty and then her father is the one who receives the punishment? Isn't this unfair?
"You! Why did it have to be?" Jennifer asked even though she was scared inside.
Thomas turned around and folded his arms in front of his chest, watching Jennifer's body from top to bottom and then looking her right into his green eyes.
"You? You called me like that earlier? Have you forgotten that we are now both master and servant? Thomas firmly made Jennifer's guts shrink for a moment.
Whereas in the past Jennifer was a brave girl who was not afraid of anything, even to just argue with a man Jennifer was not afraid of, but now? He was like a chick that had lost its mother.
Thomas's threat to torture her father left Jennifer speechless and forced to follow the cruel man's will. This is all he did for his father, Marquez.
"But why should my father receive the punishment while it was me who made the mistake?" Jennifer dared to speak again, to say what was in her heart.
"Should I give a reason?" Thomas asked back, making Jennifer gulp.
That's right, there was no reason for Thomas to do anything to her or the father, maybe even the servants in this mansion. Jennifer was thinking, how cruel is Thomas really? More cruel than he looks or has a soft side of his own just that the guy is so hard to approach that many people don't know Thomas' real personality?
Jennifer was stunned by her own thoughts, she didn't know that Thomas was a manipulative person. If Jennifer judged him as a cruel person and told it to outsiders, then no one would believe it. Because, many of the people out there assess Thomas as a benefactor who is kind.
Yes, Thomas did deliberately create the person himself. Or maybe it was just someone else's point of view on him, Thomas didn't care either.
"Do your job without asking too many questions! Two hours to finish!" Thomas ordered while standing in front of the door he called his room.
As soon as Jennifer entered, she was astonished by the condition of the room that Thomas called a room. It is impossible if in a large mansion like this Thomas occupies a room that smells so smelly, dirty and dusty and messy. Even the warehouse in his mansion was much cleaner than this room.
Jennifer was sure that this time Thomas was doing it on purpose. Maybe Thomas thought that Jennifer would just give up, but Thomas was wrong because Jennifer immediately cleaned the room.
Even though she used to be a princess, lucky enough to just clean up Jennifer can do it herself.
"I need to be able to clean this all up in the time he gives me or he'll find loopholes and excuses and use those excuses to punish Daddy," Jennifer muttered as she cleaned the room.
While outside, Thomas watched the movements of Jennifer who was currently working. One of the maids came over to Thomas to tell the man that Amora was acting up again.
"I'm sorry, sir, but we can't handle Miss Amora anymore," said the maid, lowering her head for fear that Thomas would be angry.
There was a heavy sigh hitting the waiter's ears, before Thomas could speak Amora's voice had already caught his attention.
"Honey ...." Amora walked over to Thomas and immediately snuggled in his arms.
The servant earlier who informed Thomas immediately left when he saw the signal from his master.
Amora smiled because she felt that Thomas wanted to be alone with her.
"I miss you," Amora whispered in Thomas' ear but was ignored by the man.
Thomas left the room where Jennifer was inside. His steps were followed by Amora who always followed behind wherever Thomas went.
Feeling uncomfortable, Thomas finally turned around and glared at Amora.
"Can you go? I'm sick of seeing you!" hissed Thomas.
"But Thomas, I...."
"Go away or I'll be dragged away!" Thomas growled, holding up one hand.
Amora pouted then turned and stomped her feet to leave, somehow melting Thomas's heart was so hard for her to feel. Even though Amora has done various ways to get Thomas.
Amora felt confident that she could melt Thomas just because the man allowed himself to do as he pleased in the mansion. Thomas also didn't argue when he claimed to be his lover, but why was his attitude towards Amora still like that?
Thomas could finally breathe a sigh of relief after seeing Amora leave, the man headed for his room which was on the second floor. While the room he had called his room was just a warehouse that had not been opened and cleaned for a long time. Of course the warehouse looked so terrible, he purposely told Jennifer to clean it and only gave him two hours.
He wanted to see if Jennifer was up to the task or not.
"You stupid!" Thomas muttered with a crooked smile.
He thought back to the words that had just left his lips, the words that said he would marry Jennifer.
"Why can I say that?" Thomas muttered, but on second thought he nodded his head. Maybe he could get his revenge through the marriage between him and Jennifer.
"Yes, that's right! I can make hell for her! Until she will ask me to end her life, and I will not grant that girl's wish until I see her really tortured." Thomas's mind immediately started thinking about what he would do if he married Jennifer.
His brain was like a machine that immediately devised a plan as soon as the thought of marrying Jennifer was created.
"Wait and accept your suffering, Jennifer, Marquez!" muttered Thomas.
After that, the man went into the bathroom to clean his body. In addition to the fatigue and stickiness that Thomas felt, he also needed refreshment to come back fresh after a night of talking about buying and selling. Not to mention there was a small incident that almost made him hurt, lucky because the members of the Black Death swiftly handled the problem so that Thomas did not suffer serious injuries.
"Let's start this game!" Thomas smirked as he recalled his brain just thinking about marriage to Jennifer.
