Johanne had to return to the foundation where she was staying with her little son. She hadn't received her first payment yet to find a place to live, so for now, she would have to make do with staying there. Even though she had a room just for herself and her baby, she didn't feel entirely comfortable. Despite her efforts to be a strong woman for herself and her son, these little things still made her feel depressed. As she went out for dinner, she ran into her good friend Rachell. They had become close friends during the time Johanne had to sell flowers on the street, and Rachell had been an unwavering source of support."Johanne! How are you? Darling, you have no idea how much we miss you at the traffic light. Sales haven't been the Georgee since you left. Hey, how's it going at the millionaire's mansion? I imagine it's good because just having that handsome guy as your boss is the best thing that could happen to you, babe," Rachell said as Johanne tried to smile."Well, as far as M
Upon arriving at the mansion, Edward gets out of the car. First, he goes to the back and takes Angel, who is in the baby seat, then he goes and opens the door to Johanne's seat."Come on, it's getting late," she sits there, watching the tenderness with which he carries his little son in his arms. Jhin was fortunate to have a father like Edward."Sir, I really don't understand why I'm here right now; I feel very embarrassed about it.""Look, Johanne, you work in my house, and you're the one responsible for taking care of my son. Honestly, if it weren't for that, you'd be out there with your friend, the bad influence, dancing with strangers while your child is alone in the midst of people..." Edward's voice grew thicker, and his gestures showed his anger."Sara is not a bad influence, she was just helping me with Angel, that's all." Johanne gets out of the car and feels the ground sway beneath her feet. She's dizzy and needs to lie down for a bit."Sir, please, let me help you with Ange
The next day and with a slight hangover Johanne get up, she had not slept very well, her head was spinning, but also her heart, because not a single second had passed in which she had not thought of Edward. She goes to the bathroom and washes her face and teeth, puts a ponytail in her hair and goes straight to the kitchen to prepare her baby's bottle, it wouldn't take long, she would finish resting at the foundation. As she goes downstairs, she notices that the dining room is almost ready for breakfast, Jhin is already ready to eat at his usual booth, and there were two more booths set up, she figures it's for Edward's brothers, when suddenly he appears. “Miss Johanne, did you sleep well?” Edward comes out of the kitchen, his face was tenderly happy, he had a tray in his hands full of food, it smelled delicious. “Sir, good morning," she gave him a small smile, she was still embarrassed, "yes, I slept well, thank you," she lied to him. “Lily! What are you doing here, did you sleep h
Angie, upon seeing Johanne come out of the kitchen, feels a sense of satisfaction. She imagined that she had humiliated Johanne, and she couldn't understand why she enjoyed it. From the first day she saw Johanne, she knew she didn't like her."What the hell is this, you idiot?" Angie's face turns red when she sees what Johanne has brought her. Edward just holds his head."It's your breakfast, Miss Collen," Johanne looks at her defiantly."This is undercooked, look, the bread is still in the bag, and the tea is cold. Is your servant mocking me?""No, of course not, Miss Collen. I just don't know how to cook, and I wasn't hired for that.""Edward! Are you going to let your servant mock me like this? I'm your sister, the daughter of your mother and father. How can you allow this stupid girl to do this to me?""I'm sorry, Angie, she's right. She wasn't hired to cook."When Angie hears his words, she takes the pan with the raw eggs and approaches Johanne. In front of everyone, she pours th
"Johanne! Please wait, we need to talk," Edward arrives at the room where Johanne had spent the night.Her eyes were filled with tears, but her pride remained intact. She wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing her cry over what had happened."Mr. Edward, I know you must be upset about what happened, but you must have noticed how things unfolded."Johanne heads to the bathroom; she had decided to simply remove the egg from her face and leave. She couldn't stand another minute in the mansion."Why do you always resort to violence? That's how it ended with Margarita too." Edward's accusatory words hit Johanne's ears like a hammer."What?! So, I'm supposed to allow them to do whatever they please to me and react in the best way possible, right? No, Mr. Edward, you're mistaken. Do you know what? If you want to fire me like the last time, go ahead, but I won't submit to such humiliations."Johanne stands defiantly in front of him."Johanne, please, it's not about that. I'm not going t
Angie was locked in her room, speaking with Bruno in hushed tones, ensuring that Edward or anyone else couldn't overhear them."Bruno, I overheard Edward telling the employee to prepare a room for the nanny and her little boy to move into the mansion. I think this complicates things for us even more. You know, for our plan to work, he needs to be alone here in the house," Angie explained.Bruno remained silent, keeping a close eye on his sister, Angie."Looking at it optimistically, perhaps she can serve our purposes," he finally responded."How could she serve us? It's logical that she won't make any deals with either of us," Angie countered."Of course not, Angie! But the idea of being able to kill Edward to get everything, it's crucial that we don't become suspects. So, we can blame her, make it seem like she's the one who killed him," Bruno's eyes were dark, and his ambition knew no bounds."We need to think very carefully about what we're going to do, Bruno. We only have two year
After the passionate encounter between Edward and Johanne, he avoided contact with her, he left very early and came back for dinner, they only crossed glances and words were short, his indifference became irresistible to her, she could not bear the idea that Edward did not even speak to her and did not have the slightest contact.“How have you been today, son, did you do your homework at school?” Edward just talked to Jhin while they were having dinner.“Yes, Dad, Mili helps me a lot with my homework, she always explains what I don't understand," Jhin replied, spooning innocently. “Did you thank her?”“Yes, yes, daddy, I did everything," Johanne stares at him, impressed by his rant, "couldn't he ask her himself?”“Why don't you ask me about Jhin yourself, will you continue to treat me with indifference?” Johanne let him go without further ado, dropping her cutlery hard on her plate, Edward gave her an annoyed look, he didn't like it when the two of them argued in front of the childre
“What happened out there? Tell me, what are your real intentions with that filthy babysitter, Bruno?” “Angie, that woman has to be mine, but I've noticed these days that Edward likes her too. I've seen how he looks at her and talks to her," Bruno was truly obsessed with Johanne, finding it hard to accept that his brother was also interested in her.“I think you should be careful. I know you, and I know that when a woman isn't yours willingly, you make her yours forcibly. We can't afford more trouble, Bruno. We should be focused on Edward," Angie tried to persuade him. She considered Bruno too dangerous, but she knew how to control him. However, he approached her and responded threateningly, "Don't tell me what I should do, little sister! If I feel like ending them both, I will. I'll finish whoever I have to, even if it means the babysitter, whether it's willingly or by force." "But it would be more reasonable not to make things worse, Bruno. Please understand it this way. You need
