Chpt 24
Xavier's Pov.
It's been a week after we've went to central park and her feet and bruises were healing very fast but I've notice something odd about her. Ever since we came home after going Starbucks, she's become sad and a little distant. Not like she was close to me or anything, it's just that she's avoiding me and hardly talk to me.
Most of the time she's deep in her thoughts thinking about something that I'm trying to find out. How I wish I could do her mind.
Anyways, today is the day that I finally go back to work. Slowly rolling out of bed not to wake her up, I shower up, got dressed and went downstairs.
"Good morning master!" My maids greeted as I passed by.
I walked and stopped at Carry. I found out that Carry had become friends with Emily. I don't have a problem with that though. I'm happy that's she can talk to someone when I'm not around.
"Master" she bowed to me. Standing us straight again. She had a scarred expression on her face and spoke. "May I help you with something master?"
I looked at her carefully. Should I trust this girl to take care of my wife?
Well they are friends and I don't think she would hurt her because I'm pretty sure she is very scarred of me. So I spoke after making up my mind. "I will be going back to work for today. You're new job is to make sure my wife eats breakfast, lunch and dinner every day and make sure she gets enough of rest." I instructed her and she left out a sigh of relief.
"And also, if there is anyone here to see her, don't let them in. Just inform me right away also if there's any emergency, call me right away." I added and she nodded her head.
I was still scarred that her parents will come and try to hurt her and I didn't want that to happen again. So I had to hire a few bodyguards just to make sure she was extra safe.
"You are her personal maid from now on. I'm counting on you to make sure she's safe. Guard her with your life, understand?" I asked her in a serious voice and she gulp before responding with a 'yes Master'
"Good and you know the consequences if you don't obey. I'll be taking my leave" I said and left.
...
Emily's Pov.
"Madam! Please wake up!" I heard a familiar voice shouted as I felt someone shaking me.
"What?!" I whined when I shot my eyes open.
There stood Carry with a tray her hands
"You need to eat your breakfast" she said to me and I sigh. Is this what she waked me up for?
"Let me sleep" I said to her and pull the duvet over my head before closing my eyes again.
"Madam, please eat or else Master will punish me" she said with fear in her voice and I quickly shot my eyes open and looked at her.
"What do you mean?" I asked confused.
"Master has gone to work and had put me to be your personal maid" she explain and I nodded in understanding.
"What did he say to you?" I asked curiously.
"He wants me to make sure you eat lunch, breakfast and dinner also have enough sleep and guard you with my life" she said but gulf the last part.
Poor maid. She looked pretty scarred.
"oh" was all I said before I continued when I saw the fear in her eyes. "Ypy don't have to worry. I'll cooperate with you so you won't be in any trouble" I said and saw her let out a breath of relief.
