" Faith sweety, why don't you go and paint something or do any other work. You don't have to do this, really. " Emily tried to convince faith not to do the chores. But Faith was hell bent on helping Emily and the maids. She felt sad because Emily was not listening to her.

" Please Emily, let me help you. " Listening to her pleads, Emily couldn't say no to her.

" Okay, but you would only help me in cooking. Nothing more, Okay? " she happily compiled.

It was around 7'o clock in the evening.  She wondered if Chris went to receive Max or not. She felt very much relief when her father and Chris believed her. She couldn't ask for more. She wished she'd have told them long before.

Emily gave her some vegetables to chop as she insisted. They were preparing dinner. Chris and her father would be returning soon.

She heard the door bell. She squeaked and went to open the door. Emily smiled at this adorable girl.

Faith opened the door, excited to see Chris and her dad, but froze at her place loking at the person standing before her.

" Missed me sweetheart? " He asked coming close to her, while she stepped back.

" M-Max, w-what are y-you doing h-here?" She felt her breath quicken. Emily expected to hear Chris and Mr. Anderson's voice but she didn't  heard them, so she went to check on Faith. She saw Faith taking back steps and Max coming inside with menacing smirk.

Emily listened the conversation in the morning. She turned mad and strode towards them and stood between Faith and Max.

" Mr. Richard, Chris is not home. You can come when he's home. Please leave. " She spat. For a second, Max was surprised like what gotten into her.

Then he realised, may be Faith told her something? That sure explains why Chris didn't come to pick him up.

" I can be here whenever I want Emily, none of your concern. You're a just maid, you go do your fucking work. "  Max spat and pushed her away from his way.

She fell on the floor. " Emily- " Faith words cut when Max grabbed her arm harshly. She let out a whimper.

" L-leave me. "

" Oh, sweetheart, so you got a nerve huh?" He seethed, holding her tightly.

Faith was scared and thrashed in his hold.

" Leave her Mr. Richard. " Emily tried to help the poor girl but Max shoved her away and slapped Faith very hard. Faith's lip bursted and she fell on the table. Her head hit the edge of the table drawing blood. He grabbed her hand and yanked her up and began to choke her.

" You bitch, I didn't knew you have a tongue in your mouth to tell your brother and dad. You slut. I'll show you what would I do now. " He started choking her blue when someone punched him hard.

He lost the balance and fell on the ground. Just when, Faith was about to faint, Chris held her in his arms.

" Faith, Faith open your eyes. Faith. " Chris was scared to see Faith unconscious in his arms.

" Sweety, open your eyes Faith, Emily call the doctor NOW. " William shouted. Looking at Chris and William, Max ran out and escaped from there.

I'll not forget this. I'll see you faith. I'll come for you again. He thought and drove away.
