Bip! Bip! Bip!
Oscar : Good morning, Mr. Kley. Here, I convey your activities today. Please see the table below! Thank you.
This morning, Oscar sent the various activities that Kleiner would be running today via text message. Like; daily meetings with company officials, lunch with business relations from William's family, launching of the latest product from one of his business relationships, and several documents that are still piling up that he has not studied are also signed.
"Shit! Many activities today!"
Kleiner opened his smartphone and read an incoming message from the assistant. The second looked at activity number two, which was lunch with business relations from William's family.
Kleiner : Oscar, are you crazy? Why didn't you eliminate activity number two?
Kleiner replied to Oscar's message angrily. The reason is, he has asked the assistant to cancel the cooperation contract with William's family, but it seems the assistant did not heed his orders.
Oscar : I'm so sorry, Sir. It seems, Miss Diana hasn't cancelled it yet. I'll take care of it right away.
Kleiner typed a short message reply to Oscar quickly.
Kleiner : Just fire all workers, who are incompetent at work!
Without waiting for a reply from his assistant, Kleiner immediately went to the bathroom to clean himself up.

"Did you know what, Ellie? What will I give you, if you manage to find information about that weak woman, Ellie?"
The butler of the Kleiner mansionーEllie Carolineーwas receiving an incoming phone call from the only lady of the Stonevrustarios family, Alexa Vanderlyden Stonevrustarios. In accordance with Kleiner's hunch that Ellie is not a good woman, now the two are planning to harm Kleiner's wife Rutherford Stonevrustarios.
"What's that, Miss Alexa?"
"Just do as I tell you and Eve Scott will send you a gift!"
With sparkling eyes, Ellie immediately replied to Alexa's words.
"All right, Miss. Just leave the task to me!"
Click!
After hanging up the phone, Ellie immediately went out of her bedroom into the kitchen. The twenty-six-year-old woman was very excited after knowing that Alexa would give her a present.
"It's certain that the gift is costly and valuable. I won't waste this golden opportunity! Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Tuck! Tuck! Tuck!
Ellie was just about to step into the kitchen when someone grabbed her arm.
"Aarghh!"
Ellie was very surprised to find Margareth Braker already beside her, smiling sarcastically. The woman, who was the only confidant of the entire mansion, didn't seem to like Ellie's presence.
"Miss Ellie!"
Ellie was taken aback. She looks nervous. Did Miss Margareth hear what I just said? I'm so stupid!' Ellie complained in her heart.
"What's wrong, Miss Margaret? Oh, no! I mean, what's the point of you being here?"
Margareth looked at Ellie suspiciously. She had heard Ellie vaguely talking to herself. 'However, I don't know what she said.'
"Why do you look nervous, Ellie? Is there something you're hiding?"
Ellie smiled widely to cover her nervousness. She also smoothed her hair, which was actually still very neat.
"Of course not, Miss."
'Did you think that I'm stupid! I can read the frightened look on your face, Ellie!' cried Margaret in her heart. She continued to stare at Ellie with an intimidating look.
"That's good then. Remember, Ellie, Don't act stupid in the young Master's mansion, if you don't want the same fate as Roselly Max!"
'Damn! Did this chatty woman really hear what I said? I'm so clumsy!' Ellie couldn't stop judging herself.
"Of course, Miss. Don't you worry!"
"Good!"
Margareth lightly patted Ellie's shoulder without smiling at the woman at all. Still with the same look, he told one important thing.
"Tell Mr. Kleiner, that Mr. Bay is waiting for his arrival with Miss Cyra in the backyard of his mansion this morning.!"
Ellie was surprised, she hurriedly replied to Margareth's words so that the woman would not be suspicious of her for too long.
"Fine, miss. I'll pass it on to Young Master immediately."
"OK, I'm going."
Margareth left the living room of Kleiner's mansion without looking back at Ellie. He didn't care how Ellie thought of him.
"Huh! I almost ...."
Just as Ellie took a breath, Oscar came from behind her.
"Almost what, Ellie?"
'Who else is coming this time?' Ellie thought as she turned around.
"Oh, My!"
Ellie held her heart in surprise. She was not aware of the presence of the assistant to the young master Stonevrustarios.
"What happened to you?"
"You startled me, Mr Oscar!"
"Ohh? Are you seriously? Forgive me!"
"Oh, n-no ... just nothing."
Oscar noticed Ellie's very suspicious movements. The man, however, tried to ignore it.
"Where's the Young Master?"
"Oh, The young master has not come down. I'm going to her bedroom now."
"No. I'll go there alone."
Ellie hurriedly prevented Oscar, who was about to step onto the second floor of the Kleiner mansion.
"No, Mr. Oscar. Just let me go there, for I want to convey a message from Miss Margareth to Mr. Kleiner."
Oscar narrowed his eyes. 'Miss Margaret? It's such a coincidence. What's she doing here?' Oscar asked himself.
"Okay. I'll be waiting for him downstairs."
Ellie nodded slowly. She walked away, leaving Oscar alone.

Kleiner had just finished dressing. He turned to Vyschella, who was putting on her makeup. A sweet smile that was rarely shown cracked her lips.
"Are you feeling better?"
Vyschella looked at Kleiner from the vanity mirror. The woman is nervous when the husband looks at her without blinking.
"Yes, I'm much better this morning."
"But, Ci-Cyra ...."
Damn it! Why isn't my tongue used to calling her by that cheap woman's nameーVillearisa Cyra Demougust? The difference between the two of them is very far, Kleiner thought as he stepped closer to his wife.
"Even if your health improves, it doesn't mean you can go in and out of this mansion at will!"
Kleiner held Vyschella's shoulders as he pressed her down. He tried to give an ultimatum to the twenty-one-year-old woman.
"Do you understand?!"
"Yes, I do."
Vyschella looked up. He looked at Kleiner as he winced in pain because the man was pressing his shoulder too hard.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
At this time, Vyschella was saved by a knock on the door. She breathed a sigh of relief when Kleiner removed his hands from his shoulders.
"Shit! Who's knocking on the door so early?!"
Kleiner stared at the bedroom door behind him for a moment, then he looked back at the beautiful woman in front of him.
"Humm ...."
Kleiner gave his wife a quick kiss on the skin of her neck before moving to open the bedroom door.
Kleiner looked at Ellie, who was already standing in front of his bedroom door. The woman smiled as sweetly as possible when Kleiner opened the door.
"Good morning, Young Master. How was your rest last night?"
Ellie never knew that her master didn't like small talk, so Kleiner just stared at her without answering.
"Tell me quickly, what are you doing in my bedroom so early?!"
Gluck!
'He didn't even answer my good morning. This man's really hard to beat,' Ellie thought.
She was disappointed with Kleiner's attitude for the umpteenth time.
