Jamil's POV
I knew she was trouble the moment I met her because what sort of person would go on air to badmouth the Manson's family? That was enough to get the person castrated.
The Audacity of her to ask for a position in the company irked me but I had to do what I had to do to save my father's name and his dream, that's what every good son does.
As I pulled up in my father's garage, I knew this was another one of those duties of a good son.
The video of the incident ha circulated the internet,yet again.
"Jamil, how could you let that happen?" He asked slamming his fist on his study table.
As a kid this was the disciplinary room and I hated been here, he had scolded me as a kid here, we've had our business meeting here and today, he chewing his teeth in anger again, I was sure getting another round of scolding.
"I'm working on it Dad." I said defeated.
"You better do, because this one is enough to cause issues. I've told you to leave your life out of the camera, this is a crucial part of my career and I don't want these sort of drama attached to my name, do everything you can to change this and j don't want to call you over this issues again."
"She's your wife and you have to take her as one until we're done with what's important."
"Yes Dad." I said bowing before turning to leave his office.
This girl was really out to destroy all I had worked for and won't let her.
"Hey Davis." I said into my phone. "Find the girl and take the videos of the internet when you find her, I don't want any mistakes please."
I rested my head again my car sit in frustration, I had not expected this much drama when my dad brought the Idea of marrying her, it's has just been a few days and the girl is already bringing troubles.
I turned on my car and drove out of my father's house, I had to put her in her place if I wanted things to be fine.

Elena's POV
I paced my room the whole time waiting for Jamil, he had been gone for hours and the tension of what might be overwhelmed me and made me restless.
"Elena, why did you do that? You should have just walked away, why did you hit him? Just keep your hands to yourself." I reprimanded myself.
The door clicked open, causing me to turn, Jamil was at the door, with a stoic expression, the room temperature immediately changed, making me sweat.
"Uhmm.. you.. You're back." I stammered, trying my best to be calm."how did it go?" I asked.
"What is your problem?" He asked walking towards me, making me take few steps backwards.
"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean for any of this to happen, the noise was just too much and I couldn't sleep."
"This is not your house, you're a worker like every other person, what I do or don't do shouldn't be your problem, don't you get it?" He snapped angrily.
"I said I'm sorry, I honestly didn't mean to."
"How would your apology change anything? Maybe if you had learnt to mind your business at a younger age, you wouldn't have been in so much trouble. Maybe that's the most crucial part your parents missed."
My head snapped.
"What do you mean? Why are you dragging my parents into this? You disrespectful piece of shit, you think the world must bow to you because of your father's influence and the little change he passes to you?" I knew I had passed the line but what was the worst that could happen, he should have known better than to drag my parents into this.
"What did you say?" He asked laughing even though there was nothing funny, I knew I had hit a sore spot but I wasn't going to back down like that.
"You heard me, you're only like this because of your fat–" I could complete my statement because he came towards me in fast strides, I took several steps back till my back was pressed against the wall, I was trapped.
"What do you know about me Elena? What do you understand about working? You're the same opportunist who signed a contract of getting married to man you didn't know because you liked the influence around him. Talking about working, what do you know about that when you lobbied your way to land a job at a prestigious company. You shouldn't be the one talking." He spat into my face.
"I'm sorry." I said in fright, I had bitten more than I could chew, for a second, I forgot I was at his house and he was still a stranger, he could harm me and bury me here and no one would find my body.
I pressed my body against the wall tighter for support.
"You know what , I think I have the perfect job for you, since it's so hard for you to stay in your room and mind your business. I see you want to become the perfect wife way too much, I think I might have the right thing for you." He said walking to the door.
"What are you talking about?" I asked as I watched him opening the door.
"Come downstairs." He said walking out of the door.
I slid down to the floor to catch my breathe, there was this air around him that scared me.
"Elena."he shouted my name from upstairs.
In no time I was running down the stairs to find him and all the housemaids.
What is he doing? Was he going to tell them to pack my things out? There were so many questions but what bothered me more was the anger of the face of the housekeeper, he was definitely cooking something bad.
"I won't drag my words as these would be a simple instruction, I'm giving everyone of you a Three months break, you'll only come back when I ask you to. Your agencies will contact you for your pay for the three months you'll all be away. I want you guys to get in and get whatever you want to take, you all have 30 minutes to leave the house." He said.
They all looked at each other confused.
"But young master..." The housekeeper started but she was interrupted by him.
"No questions." He barked as they all scampered away from to carry out his instructions.
"What is the meaning of this Jamil? What are you doing?" I asked.
"For the whole of their absence, you'll be in charge of cooking and keeping this house clean since you seem to know much about hardwork and wifely duties."
"But this is not in the contract."
"In the past few days, you have done everything not stated there with your mouth and your actions, this will be your punishment."
"What are you talking about?"
" I'm busy getting those videos off the internet and I won't be explaining myself. I have breakfast by 7AM, get used to that." He said before walking out on me.
It felt like I was in a dream, I pinched myself repeatedly to make sure this was really happening.
It was and he had just turned me to his housemaid, this was now my reality.
