"Zed, what is going on in mansion?"
Forth asked next morning calling Zed.

"I myself wanted to inform you Boss.
Khun Beam was feeling bored so he asked me to give him some books. I told him that he can read any book of his preference from second floor library. Madam Emily wasn't at mansion. I told him that he doesn't need anyone's permission to walked into library. He said he is not more then a servant and a servant shouldn't touch things without permission.
So Khun Beam went to Khun Wayo's room, the only family member present at mansion that time.
But..."

"But?"
Asked Forth in gritted tone.

"Khun Wayo exactly said same thing that servant thirteen should remember his place and not to get habitual of rich people's lifestyle."
Zed explains.

"Did Beam ask for ice cream yesterday?"
Asked Forth with cold tone.

"Khun Beam was looking sad yesterday noon after Lee dropped him at mansion. He said he doesn't have any appetite for meal. Madam Emily was in her routine check rounds so nobody asked him to have other things if not food. Mel told me that Khun Beam requested for a cup of ice cream if possible but then Khun Wayo came calling him Freeloader."
Zed gave full report.

"Ummm..."
Zed hesitates.

"What is it Zed?"
Asked Forth firmly.

"I don't know and I am not crossing my limits Boss. But..."

"But...?"

"I dont think Khun Beam is characterless person."
Zed comments hesitatingly.

"What do you mean?"
Asked Forth sitting straight.

"Khun Niran Kongthanin came to see sir Beam the other day asking about his health.
Is it my intuition or what sir but I think Sir Kongthanin tries to touch Sir Beam more then necessary. I know it's really big accusation but I can not  hide anything from you Boss. I'm responsible,  accountable and loyal for you.
Sir Beam is your affair.
The way Niran sir talked to sir Beam made Khun Wayo accused him of shameless.
I wanted to tell you all this but then power cut happened in mansion."
Zed said guiltily.

"Ok. Have your eye on Beam. Make sure Lee protects him from every threat."
Forth orders and cuts the call.

He turned to sleeping figure in his bed.

Forth was staring at Beam's face with gentle eyes.

He caresses Beam's hair softly.

"Meeting at eight Forth."
Lam's text appears on his screen.

Forth calls Lee.

"Mike prepare car."
He orders.

"You bring him home but not before serving him proper meal."
Forth orders Lee.

"You do know sir that I'm good in fight. Not in food."
Lee said nervously.

"Call food delivery then.
Make list of his likings and prepare everything accordingly.
Coordinate with Zed at mansion and make sure Beam gets everything he wants.
You are accountable for his every need. Make sure nobody call him names and if so, inform me immediately.
He slept late last night. Don't wake him up. Let him sleep.
Be here Lee."
Forth said after giving order and then a light pat on his upper chest, a gesture Forth does to Lee and Mike when he assigned them important task.

"I'll sir.
I assure you."
Lee said firmly.

Forth left.
