Prey of a Predator

Chapter 45

I looked at her and saw that her pink puffed gown was now drenching with water as she stood up and immediately called for a maid.

Is this Henry's mansion or her's? How can she give orders to the servants when he didn't even say anything? Is this how things work with British people? Do I have to listen to her as well?

I asked Henry who they were and he told me that I will shortly know. I nodded my head and looked at the woman again who was glaring at the maid who was drying her gown as if she will just kill the maid right here, right now. And the other maid was picking up the broken pieces of the glass.

Why are Britishers like this? Always their ego comes first and then it's them. Just out of my understanding.

After the gown was clean enough, she pretended as if nothing happened and sat down again. And said to Henry,"sorry Henry, I lost my control here seeing this pest." She said looking at me.

Does she think I don't understand what she is saying? And did she just call me a 'pest'? This woman is more crazy than Henry.

I didn't mind it though because I don't want to start a cold war here. But as I was again going to pick my spoon, I heard her scream.

Now what happened? I looked at her and saw that she was pale as hell. What happened? Just then I looked at her hand and that there was a fork dug between her two fingers in the wooden table. And the man beside her was also scared but didn't let it change his composure and decency.

I looked at Henry because the fork came flying from his side and what I saw was unexpected. His eyes were completely darkened and he was literally giving death glare towards the woman.

Suddenly, he said,"If you think your life is precious then don't you dare ever say that again and remember that she is my wife, not your servant. Got it?"

And the woman said yes while trembling. Did he just defend me? Why? For what reason? Don't tell me, he will ask something from me in return for his defence? Not a chance.

In all this, the most hilarious reaction was of the man's. He literally sat on his seat and watching all of it while his hands were stuck in one position and his jaw was touching the floor. With his wide hazel eyes, he was just watching all of this but didn't dare say anything about it.

They share the same eye colour. Is he, her father? Whatever, my god I am hungry. Why isn't anyone letting me have my breakfast? This Britishers, I will eat as fast as possible and leave directly.

I finally picked up my spoon, ignoring their argues and started eating. All of them were staring at me and Henry's smirk returned and he, folding his hand under his chin, looked intensely at me and asked,"sorry for the inconvenience, my love. But do you like the food?" After I nodded my head. He said,"I am blessed. Next time just say if you want anything, I will bring this whole world at your feet."

Now it's too much. I glared at him and said (in english) "will you stop? We have guests here." He didn't look suprised because I have talked in english with him before and was kinda proud instead of shocked hearing me speak english.

But those duo looked as if they will just go and take out their eyes, wash it with shop and then again put it back.

I nervously smiled at them and asked Henry about who they are. Henry said,"oh yeah, I totally forgot. (Looks at them) Why don't you introduce yourselves to her? Well, firstly, let me introduce her. She is Inaaya, my wife, my queen and my heart. And now, you?"

The man started speaking,"Well, hello there Inhaya. My name is Charles and I am also a head Colonel like Henry and this young lady here is my daughter, Veronica. Say hello, dear."
