I order you to leave me be, go attend yourself with a ther chores, I will not have you down my neck, not today. Please excuse me.”“Yes sir,” Stella replied feeling defeated.The mansion was as silent as a graveyard, thief master had just been back from his business trip and had escaped yet another assassination attempt, they were scared but happy that atleast this time, he had gotten away unscarred. Except from one of the guards who last his life and a car they had to leave behind as a result of damage, all was well.“I’ve had it, I think it time I took some action. I can fight to kill too. Right Lukas? He asked Lukas who was in the living room with him among other guards. “Yes boss,” Lukas replied. We can’t just sit and watch, if they want a fight. We give them a good fight.”“I want everything you can get on

It's Andrew, open up”, Andrew whispered from behind the door. Gabby walked over to the door smoothly and opened it swiftly. What's going on?” she asked wide-eyed at him.Andrew was fidgeting and unstable, he looked scared.“I have to get you out of here, if he finds you here, you're as good as dead. Come on,” a panicking Andrew said, trying to keep a bold demeanor.He grabbed her on her wrist and just as they were about to run down the stairs, the fast racing footsteps coming towards them on the stairs stopped them in their tracks. There was no way to bypass them. It was just a long hallway that led directly to the stairs.“Go, go, go back inside, hide but don't lock the door,” he said, shoving her back into the room.Gabby frantically removed everything in the room that may be a giveaway that she was in the room into the wardrobe before thinking of where to hide. She could hear arguments going on in the hallway and the voice of a crying girl. She heard the door next to hers open and

It was late by the time Walter decided he had soothed his inner child enough and was ready to stop torturing everyone and go back to the mansion.Gabby was a mess, she was famished, tired, dirty, and hungry but she had just had the very best day of her entire life. On their way back to the mansion, she walked closer to Walter. As a person who could count the number of times she had smiled in her life, Walter had made her not just smile but laugh till her ribs hurt. Even now while they walked home with nothing but their torch to light the narrow way back to the mansion, he was still making dry jokes in the hopes of getting a chuckle or giggle out of her.“You have been so silent Andrew, are my jokes that dry? Why can't you be like the good lady Gabby over here and fake a smile or two, doctors say it is good for your health. Sometimes I think you should pay me for bringing some kind of color into your life,” Walter said to Andrew who held the torch ahead of Gabby while he followed car

“When are we going to get there? Is it still a long way?”Gabby asked in a Walter who was matching effortlessly in front of her.“If you want, I can carry you on my shoulder or I’ll make Andrew do it,” Walter stopped in his tracks and turned to Gabby to tease her with a smile.“No thank you, I can walk very well on my own,” Gabby replied squinting her eyebrow at Walter and folding her arms across her bosom as a barrier to deter Walter from making do with his threat.“Hmm, I see you don’t like to be carried, but don’t ever say I didn’t do anything for you.” He said before he turned around and resumed on his way with Gabby behind him and Andrew following behind Gabby. They walked through a hilly path covered by tall green trees and bushes, birds could be heard chirping away on each of their sides, and the sun was beginning to sneak its way out of the sky but even Andrew began to grumble despite the serenity of their surroundings.“Ahh, look, we are here! Walter exclaimed, pointing down

You must be starving,” Walter said as he noticed the way Gabby was downing the food.Gabby was embarrassed by his comment, thinking she must have been eating ravenously because that was how she normally ate until the whole etiquette thing with Mr Shepherd's maids started.“Am sorry, was I chewing loudly?”She asked, wiping her mouth with a tissue paper.It was just the both of them on the dining, Andrew was eating on one of the large chairs in the sitting room.“I mean, it’s not ladylike to chew like that, I get that you might be hungry so it okay,” Walter said chewing his food and smiling.Gabby became nervous and conscious of how she ate the remaining food and wondered why these rich men always wanted everything to be so controlled.“Am done eating, I feel heavy-eyed and would like to go to bed,” Gabby announced after she was done with her food.“So soon? Walter protested. “Come on stay a little while longer, I promise not to bore you at all, there’s this scary movie I like to watch

She was seated at the passenger’s seat with Walter while Android was at the steering driving like crazy.They have been driving for more than an hour now and there was no suspicious car behind them, soon gabby’s worry began to subside.“Thank you for helping,” she said to Walter. “It’s no problem at-all, I am very delighted to help.
