Dawson's POV

I stood at a distance firing at the target board, this my secret room where I release my hurt by shooting.

As the scene of how Kim was murdered replayed in my head, I grew bitter the more.

Am I that bad to have deserves something like that?? Is it a crime for me to live and find happiness in it??

Thousands of thoughts ran through my mind that I couldn't find answers to.

Time skips!

It was cool and cozy outside, at the late evenings I sat down on a pew with an expressionless face.

Just then, Something radiated in my eyes and I reach out for it, I brought it up to my view and realized it was a necklace.

a flash light shone on me and a hand gripped the necklace away from me making me flinch, I turn to see who it was.

"ah finally found it." carla beamed looking at it necklace and she then raised her head and her eyes popped out on seeing me.

"sir,, what are you doing here at this time??" She's asked and I scoffed, ignoring the question.

"I know you are still very mad at me and yes you have the right to. But please excuse my stupidity for not introducing you to my family I'm terribly sorry."
she expressed heartfeltly and I was just mute.

After standing for a while, she bowed turning to leave but I found myself pulling her back at her wrist..

She gave me a poppy eyes and moved her gaze to my fingers which was on her wrist.

"there's only one way you can make up for this.." I whispered and pulled her into a sharp hug.

"don't leave maybe this is all I need right now..."

then I took her hands and sat her down beside me..
I remained quiet not knowing why I suddenly want her beside me..

"Believe me if I tell you I was never like this before" I voiced out holding her palms as I squeezed it tenderly.

She didn't say anything.

"I wouldn't be bold enough to hurt even a fly but at some point in life.
I had to act cold hearted so No one won't dare hurt me again not even nature." I found myself expressing even tho I don't wanna voice out my heart right now but I just needed to speak to someone.

"I made myself believe that it's the best but deep down it's destroying the person I'll ever wanted to be.
everywhere one I've ever loved always leaves me sometimes I feel like I'm bounded by a curse that love was never meant for me.. but how is it possible that a human can never love??? Carla is that possible??" My gazed at her held so much emotion and misery

"Erm..." she battled with her lashes, nervous.. .

"maybe you shouldn't allow past event to get over you and control you, I believe you can still be happy if you don't give up on yourself, I know of a way to help, if only you'll permit me." She said shyly and wonder what she had in mind.

Carla POV

Oh No 🤦‍♀️ what did I just say??
I mentally slapped myself, I felt so nervous that I didn't even know when I had to say that.

"And how do you intend to make me happy baby whimpet??" He asked humorously, with his hazel eyes fixed on his.
..

"Uh..uhmmmm!!!..., I will" I lowered my gaze as I lost track of what to say.

His gaze was still on me, he finally looked away and sighed.

"Whatever way you intend to I give you my full permission and just you know that from now hence forth, you are not just my ordinary maid you've been promoted to a hire rank.." he said and I gave him a poppy eyes.

"Don't give me that eyes okay, it's late you gat to sleep so you can wake up on time cause we are going out tomorrow.." he declared not looking at me then he started exiting, living me in my thoughts 💭.

It later dawns on me that I've stayed too long in the dark.

I flung up and raced into the mansion but my back leg touching my head.

Jeong pov:

"You needed to see what Dawson did to me just because of his maid and Just because of a goddamn deal I had to go through the risks of who does that??" I growled playing with my drink as Joon hee paced around me angrily.

"C'mon You and I both know Dawson that it won't be easy for you to earn back his trust and friendship that's why you need to keep trying." She persuaded clasping her palms.

"if I may ask why did you really want Dawson back? Aren't I already enough for you huh??
Why did you want him to love you back and you are tryna fit me in the middle when I stand nothing to gain."

"Are you seriously asking me that." She roared but suddenly went calm
"Well the game." She stated.

"I want to play on till it gets to the finish line Dawson was going signed his half of his properties in my name before you ruined everything,
but all hope isn't lost now that Kim is successfully dead it's time to achieve or what I've worked so hard for and that can only be accomplished if Dawson gets to love me back.." She yelled and silent stepped in for a while.

The death of Kim it's what's putting me in a mess now and she's happy about it??

"Well that's your problem, for now I need to make sure I fish out what the evidence relating to Kim's death is, cause I won't be able to handle it if Dawson finds out soon and that maid of his is gonna be my weapon." I smirked 😏.
