Oh lord of chaos
Present day: The next morning
In the mansion, a young woman was seated on a rather noble blue chair while wearing a pink mighty covering dress that leaved no space for men to peak. It covered the entirety of her skin and it also covered her legs only leaving her toes.
But despite that, the dress looked quite noble adding to the woman's magnificence. Her long red hair flowed almost touching the marbled floor. Her eyes which were of the same color as her hair were squinted a little as she focused on reading some papers.
She was very beautiful and had a look of coldness on her face which made many people nickname her, the rose.
A flower one can only admire from a distance and, if you try to touch it, its thorns will mercilessly prick you..
She continued reading the papers and signing some of them with her signature and placed them aside. She looked quite dedicated like a workaholic CEO.
*Pkaa!*
Suddenly, a loud sound of something breaking rang out prompting her to stop what she was doing and look in the direction. Her eyes which looked serious some seconds ago now reflected worry.
She got off her chair and went to the location where the sound came from. Upon her arrival in the room, she saw the floor messed up with a lot of sharp shards of glass. There was a middle-aged woman trying to lift a glass table seemingly intending to break it, however, there were some three women wearing maid dresses trying to stop her.
The feet of the three maids were bleeding probably because they had been pricked by the sharp glass shards.
But despite being in pain, the maids were persistent on stopping the middle aged woman who looked like a mad person with tears on her face.
"Mom!"she immediately dashed towards the woman with a look of worry on her face and hugged her.
The middle-aged woman stopped her violence when she felt a warm pair of soft hands hug her. A strong scent of a familiar yet soothing cologne invaded her noses.
She then looked at her daughter who had tears in her eyes and hugged her.
"I'm sorry, I just couldn't control myself"
The three maids seeing that the problem was solved limped towards the door intending to leave since their work was done. Their feet hurt a lot but they did not show it on their faces.
They were afraid that they might get fired for showing a pitiful display in front of their employers.
But, just as they were about to leave, they heard an authoritative voice speak behind them:
"Stop"
They immediately froze on the spot thinking that they were going to get fired, however, contrary to their expectations, the voice said something the exact opposite:
"I'll heal you"
The three were shocked at first however, they immediately responded:
"Please don't trouble yourself madam"
"Yes, what she said"
"These are nothing but minor wounds that will heal in no time at all, please, there is no need for you to use your great power on insignificant people like us"
........
The maids all voiced out their objections saying that, she should not help them at all and their wounds would heal in no time at all. They did not want to waste the precious time of their always busy mistress.
"It was an order not a request" the young woman spoke making all the maids shut their mouths. If it was an order, then, how could they object?
Wasn't that the very reason they were here?
To fulfill the orders of their mistress..
She walked to the three and stood before one of them.
"Give me your hand"She spoke.
"Yes maam" the flustered maid immediately did as she was told and placed her hands on her employer's delicate hands.
'Wow, they are smooth' the maid could not help but comment when she felt the smooth hands of her madam touching hers.
........
The young woman then closed her eyes and spoke, "Oh mighty goddess of healing who has bestowed her great blessing of life upon an insignificant soul like me, please fill my empty storage with your great power so that I can save a life~"
Her hands started glowing in a beautiful green light which then rushed to all the areas the maid had injuries and entered. After that, the maid's wounds closed up leaving no proof of their existence.
"Wow" the maids all could not help but be astonished by the grand spectacle. Their mouths opened wide.
They all wished they could do it too but they knew that not all people were blessed. Even the creators had their favourites.
There were only 50 known people with abilities in the whole earth. Not many people had seen these people but they had the luxury of working for one and in addition, they were also being healed.
If there wasn't a rule that restricted them from giving out this piece of news, they would have sold it to a famous news company for a large price about 1billion or so and lived their lives in luxury.
The price might sound exaggerated for only a piece of news, however, it was actually small considering that people like their lady were rare and were even respected by every President on the planet. A camel going through the eye of a needle was easier than meeting those people.
........
Soon after healing the first one, the young lady went on and healed the others. After that, she dismissed them and walked back to her mother who was now calm, seated on the couch.
She sat close to her mother and asked:
"Mother, what had happened?"
Her mother did not even look up and spoke:
"That live-in good for nothing son-in-law has got to leave"
*Sigh*
"Mother, please don't stress yourself over the same problem over and over again. Haven't you already chased him out of the house when father left?"
Her mother looked at her with an annoyed look and spoke in a loud voice:
"What do you mean!? You know that I want him completely out of our premises and even out of the coun...no.. the planet itself if possible!"
"He is nothing but a big for nothing menace who must probably be blackmailing your father to get his hands on you!"
Her mother's chest heaved up and down as she breathed heavily. She was really angry with her husband who brought a good for nothing son in law who did not even know how to write his own name at the age of twenty.
Like, who does that?
*sigh*
The young lady sighed once again and spoke:
"Mother, you know that there is nothing we can do about it right?. If we continue acting behind father's back, he will be furious and do something extreme in that anger"
"Oh, so you think it's alright for you to stay in this marriage with a loser like him over a genius like David?"
"You think we are doing anything bad by acting without your father's knowledge but, he will thank us if we successfully drive him out of the country"
The younger woman looked at her mother with a tired expression and was about to object but, her mother was faster to speak:
"Why do you think your marriage with him is a secret?"
"Because father does not want to gather all attention on our family" replied the young lady.
"Wrong," her mother shook her head and spoke, "that is just a front your father uses to fool him, he must be trying to secretly find a way to get rid of him"
"But...." the young lady could not even finish her sentence before her mother added:
"Like I told you, your father is being blackmailed by that big schemer. My dear Leana, go and continue your loving relationship with David, your mother has a grand plan to kick that guy out the grandest way possible on the day of your sister's 20th birthday next week"
Leana's mother's red eyes which were identical to hers gleamed with coldness. She looked like a snake scheming to catch it's prey in one decisive bite.
"He will know the consequences of scheming against my family"
"...."

Back at Taylor's cabin, he had just finished making preparations to go to a forest to cut some wood not knowing that a grand scheme was being cooked for him.
He took a huge axe and some strong ropes and locked the door of his log-made cabin.
"Time to go" He said with a smile on his face which was hidden behind his black hair and started walking towards where the gate was.
