Derrick hadn't thought he would be able to resist Miranda. She was so hot, her hips had awakened something deep in him, and after returning to his bathroom, he wanted to take a bath to relax all his arousal. But then he remembered Miranda had used his bath.
Never had he shared his bathroom with anyone before. Now, a maid of lowly status dared to use his bathroom and also his sponge and soap. Derrick felt irritated and wanted to discipline the maid, but how would he report such news to his mother? His mother was already above 70 years old. What if his mother had a heart attack and she fainted as a result of the shock?
"No, I cannot let my mother find out about this," Derrick said. He was enraged as his member still throbbed and hurt, needing that round ass to cool it off.
"Damn it! What kind of temptation is that? I guess I should have that maid fired tomorrow morning. Isn't she the same maid that had dared to beat up Melody to that extent? I see that she's on a mission here, and I will deal with her personally tomorrow."
Moving away from the bathroom door where he had been standing and staring at his bathroom with irritation, Derrick walked up to the pristine bathtub and cleansed it properly. He washed out his soap and sponge, feeling irritated that Miranda had used them.
"Miranda," he mused her name. "She dares to cross the limit and to also use my properties. I will deal with her."
After cleaning his bathtub completely, Derrick prepared his bath and finally entered the bathtub. He remembered seeing Miranda bare when he had opened the bathroom door.
"Damn it! I should not have opened the door, after hearing her voice. She had such a nice, soothing voice anyway," Derrick said. He thought about Miranda's lovely voice, the way she moaned when he had held her cheeks to check if her head was not hurt.
The way her skin was so soft and soothing to his touch. Despite staying inside the cold bath as he didn't care to mix the water with hot water to dilute the chilly bath temperature..
Derrick remembered how Miranda's cheek felt to his touch. "Her body was so soft. Damn! I should get a girlfriend to get some release. I cannot bring myself to sleep with a maid. No way, I cannot."
Waving off the thoughts about Miranda at the back of his mind, Derrick finally got out of the bathtub, after spending hours in bathing.
The heavy rain had started covering the night sky and flooding the city roads. Derrick stood by his room window, staring out at the surroundings and heavy downpour of the torrential rain. He remembered he hadn't even phoned his elder sister to confirm if she had gotten home safely.
With a sigh, Derrick moved away from the room window after shutting the curtains closed and closing the window to prevent the heavy downpour from entering inside or his bedroom. He saw the time was already past midnight and thought against phoning his sister as he knew she only lived a short distance away from where his family mansion was.
Walking up to his exquisite bed, Derrick picked up his body lotion from his drawer. He moisturized his body and finally went into his closet to grab a sleeping wear. He wore a white night robe and later climbed onto his bed to sleep.
Shutting his eyes, the memory of his holding Miranda came flooding again in his mind. The weather wasn't helping him as he needed a warm body to keep him warm. He was also sweating, and he tossed his bedcover away, sitting up on the bed again.
Derrick hadn't thought about having sex. He was 25, and had fewer friends as he presumed them to be his foes. He knew he could not trust any of them. He trusted Alexa as she was a loyal staff and had been working with him for a year. He had no issues with her.
"Or is Alexa pretending with me to like her?" Derrick wondered. He couldn't go to a hotel to get a woman. He was not the kind of man that indulges in watching adult stuff to get a release. He desired to have Miranda on his bed and to pleasure her, and with the way his body was reacting crazily with that thought to get Miranda up on his bed, and in cloud nine with him.
Derrick groaned and left his bedroom to his study room to busy himself, since he couldn't sleep or think of anything else, aside from Miranda's nude body that he had seen.
Meanwhile, Miranda had returned to her maid's room on the lower floor of the exquisite mansion. She was feeling sad after remembering how Derrick had made it clear to her that she was of lower status and he could not have anything to do with her.
Miranda had thought after Derrick had seen her bare, he would take her to bed.
"Oh no! What was I even thinking? What if he sent me away tomorrow? My goodness! I shouldn't have gone there. I haven't even saved enough to start up the business that I want."
Miranda remembered her first salary since working in the Luis mansion after her graduation from college. She had used the money they paid her monthly to offer to the orphanage home. Later, she used the rest of her salary that she had gathered to purchase a plot of land in a distant town. She wanted to own a mall, a big supermarket in her name where she would be selling a lot of items.
That was five years ago, and she had an agent who was enabling her to build the mall to her taste. She had not even gone to the area after purchasing the land, but she heard from the agent that many contractors had contacted him to resell the land to them, and they wanted to build another company there.
Miranda heard the land had developed, and a company was offering to pay her millions to resell her land to them as the land was on the road and in the heart of the town.
The town had developed compared to five years before, but Miranda wanted to use the land. She planned to relocate to the area after she was through building it and establishing herself. She wouldn't remain a servant, and she hoped for a wonderful man to marry her.
Wiping her sobs away, Miranda strode up to her room window to shut it, after the heavy wind had pushed her curtains away. The Luis family were benevolent and allowed the maids to have separate rooms in the magnificent home.
Miranda stripped off her dirty pink gown that she wore since morning, after she was done closing the window. She tried not to think about Master Derrick again, even when her heart yearns to be with him. She decided to focus on her job and on saving enough money to establish herself.
"Maybe two years from now. I will be through with my services here, then I will move to the other town to start up my business." A satisfactory smile curved up Miranda's lips as she envisioned a life where she would be referred to as Madam. She would have prayed for a man to elevate her status, but knowing how prideful men were, Miranda decided to become as prideful as them and as arrogant as she maybe when she acquired so much wealth.
When morning arrived, Miranda was sleeping under the bed covers, when the supreme maid, Juliet Colton barged into the room and tapped on Miranda's shoulder roughly.
"Miranda! Wake up! Lady Loretta summoned you into the living room."
"Oh!" Miranda rubbed her sleeping eyes as she would have loved to have more wonderful dreams. However, as her big brown eyes fell on the wall clock in her room, Miranda gasped, "Oh my goodness! 10 am."Well, the day was Saturday, but Miranda knew that Lady Loretta mostly picked on her to make her tea and also to attend to her other services.Rushing out from the bed without any other care in this world, Miranda quickly ran out of her maid's room, rushing out before Juliet who shook her head with disgust.Juliet was two years older than Miranda. Juliet was a single mother, but she hid it from the Luis family's knowledge.Juliet had gotten the opportunity to work in the Luis family home after she was kicked out from her parents' home. Her parents were rich, but because Juliet couldn't identify the man who had gotten her pregnant, she fell pregnant out of wedlock, and that was against her parents' standard. She had a one-night stand with a mysterious man, and she knew if she saw the man a
"Derrick, come here. I would like to have a word with you," Lady Loretta said as she called her only son back. She knew that Derrick was not pleased with her actions of pardoning Miranda, however, she liked Miranda a lot, and since Miranda had not wronged her personally, nor done anything wrong to the other maids, she could not just terminate Miranda's employment in her home.More likely, Lady Loretta had other hidden objectives. She could not just disclose her plans yet, as she had taken Miranda away from the orphanage home personally and enrolled the young woman in school.There was a time when Lady Loretta had gone to the orphanage home for one of her leisurely kind-hearted works. There, she saw the beautiful young girl who was not happy and mostly staring at the door.Lady Loretta knew the young girl's wish was to leave the orphanage home and go out to the world beyond and establish herself. She never disclosed to Miranda that she was the woman behind Miranda's freedom. She made th
"Mother, I would like to take a stroll outside to clear my mind on some things," Derrick said as he immediately looked away from Miranda. He saw the pain in her eyes and how she had stared at him accusingly.*What did I do wrong to her?* Derrick wondered as he quickly averted his gaze to the exit door.Miranda quickly informed Lady Loretta, "Ma, I have prepared your tea. Your breakfast is served.""Good. Derrick, come join me for breakfast first before leaving. Miranda woke up late today, and upon her rudeness last night, she decided to have me starve this morning. Forgetting that she had to prepare my tea on time," Lady Loretta commented as she rose from the couch and strolled ahead to the dining table to have her seat.Derrick accompanied his mother, gently pulling out a chair for his mother to take her seat first. He said, "And that's why I told you to terminate her employment here. Anything that causes you pain shouldn't be kept closer to you.""Derrick, I would not like to think t
Even Miranda was taken aback by the new man's words. She just walked into the living room, slowly closing the door behind her back. Miranda didn't want to believe that Alex was as troublesome as Derrick."Oh! That was a rude thing to say, Alex. You should have simply said that you dated Juliet before. I know Juliet Colton is not from a poor home like the rest. She is a classy, bossy girl who also exudes an air of superiority. I did my research about her and heard she had a child out of wedlock, which is the reason her billionaires' parents' sent her away from their mansion.""She was pregnant?" Alex looked stunned, but Juliet was more than embarrassed that her life secret was now public knowledge. She immediately ran away from the living room to hide her shame."Juliet, where are you running off to?" Lady Loretta asked in a low voice. As she called Juliet back, but the latter didn't respond and ran away to her room. To cry it all out.The tension in the living room intensified, and Mi
Looking confused, Miranda did not understand where Lady Loretta was driving at."I don't understand, Ma," Miranda said. Lady Loretta offered her a warm smile."I know that you're not happy about what Derrick stated about the lower-class families. You shouldn't be annoyed with him. It is one reason you shouldn't eavesdrop on other peoples' conversations." Lady Loretta emphasized."I am sorry, Ma," Miranda offered her apology, with her head bent low."It's okay. Come sit here. You know, I have always wanted to speak to you about this, for a very long time. But I haven't had the chance to discuss this with you," Lady Loretta added. Miranda finally raised her head up and looked at the older woman."I should come and sit beside you?" Miranda had to repeat the question to be sure she was not hearing double.What if Master Derrick came in and saw her sitting with his mother? Wouldn't he fire her and find that disrespectful? Miranda wondered, and her hesitation to sit beside the older woman w
Miranda went to the maids quarers on the left wings of the mansion. The maids were busy gossiping about Juliet and Alex, Lady Loretta's grandson.Miranda summoned two maids to accompany her, and they went up to the top floor to Lady Loretta's room to gather her clothes and take it downstairs.As Miranda did not know which room belonged to the older lady, the other two maids showed her to the room, and soon they started gathering most of the older lady's valuables.Miranda thought about what Lady Loretta had told her earlier about adopting her because she wanted her to become her daughter-in-law. A sad smile played up Miranda's lip, as she also truly admired Derrick, but she knew the housemaster looted her the most.The girls focused on gathering the clothes first and taking them to the lower floor of the mansion.Meanwhile, Derrick left the mansion and took a stroll outside to clear his mind. He had a business meeting the following day, and his mind wondered about how he would ask Al
Miranda wondered again what Derrick was up to. Her heartbeat was not normal, especially knowing he was watching her.'Did he wake up to stare at me again? Oh no!' Miranda bent and resumed sweeping.She expected Derrick to have left the stairs, but he stood there motionless, watching her sweep.Alex finally walked out of the guest room he had been given. Though Alex had other plans to discuss with Derrick as to his staying for a while in the Luis mansion,.Alex wore a white robe too, and black trousers were paired with black slippers. He was taken aback by the revelation that Juliet had a son. And despite him confronting Juliet about the paternity of her son the previous day, she refused to speak to him.Alex didn't know Juliet's family house, and he hadn't planned on becoming a father soon. His mother had told him that he needed some business training from Derrick so as to impress his father and run his father's company. What Alex hadn't expected was to meet with Juliet again. He knew
Derrick subtly narrowed his eyes at Miranda as he saw her walk out of the bathroom. Without waiting to know what his mother had to say to Miranda, he muttered, "Mom, you can meet me in the dining room."After Derrick exited the room, the rest of the other two maids stood motionless as they witnessed his earlier reaction in the early hours of the morning."Come with me, Miranda. You should go and serve my tea," Lady Loretta dismissed Miranda and went to the dining room to join her son.However as Lady Loretta stepped out, she saw the unfamiliar faces in her living room.Derrick had wanted to leave the house before, not wanting to see Miranda again, but after his mother called him. He had to wait.Sitting quietly in the dining room as a maid approached him and served his breakfast. Lady Loretta Inquired, "Derrick, who are these new faces?""Oh! Mom, you remember that I spoke to you about getting a replacement for your favorite maid, Miranda." Derrick said with a strict face."Yes. I rem
