"W-what happened?" She stuttered
"What's going on Mr Vic, this man here was using Mr Raphael's bathroom so I brought him to you, why is he making orders like he is Mr Raphael's son?" I asked sharply, looking down on the man."Do you know who the man you just humiliated is?" Mr Vic asked with reverence for Mr Raphael on his face. Rachel doesn't seem to notice the reverence so she kept defending her actions"No but I found him using Mr Raphael's bathroom and littering his room, as an employee, I'm only doing my job to keep my boss' room clean " Raphael explained innocently"You know who I am?" Raphael asked, sitting on one of the chairs in the dining room."No I don't. If I do, I won't bother bringing you to my referrer. Sorry, my manager once told me only Mr Raphael and his family sit in the dining room,it's better you stand up now" Rachel replied curtly. In her mind, she already already close to the throat of this arrogant Man using her boss' belongings, only one step and she'll strangke him."Rachel, you have to apologize and then, go to the kitchen to assist Mr William" Mr Vic ordered."Sir, I'm sorry but I don't understand why I should apologies, I can't see my mistake in ant if this, I'm just trying to protect my boss' belongings" Rachel replied stubbornly.Rachel is someithay detest apologizing, even when she knows she's wrong, she will still want to defend herself. Until she is short on words will she accept that she is wrong and do the necessary things. I thus case however, she's still a noviceRachel who was sitting and fuming in anger was trying his best to hold his anger, he already guessed that Rachel is his new assistant, it's very hard finding someone to take that job so he doesn't want to scare the newcomer away."Don't worru about thise Rachel, I'll tell you later" Mr Vic whispered into Rachel's ear.Rachel still felt like arguing but she doesn't know what to say anymore. She got upset and smirk her lip while walking out of the dining room."STOP!"Finally, Raphael flared up, he couldn't hold his anger any longer and he needs to put it out on someone.Rachel was shocked with the shout that he missed her step her almost fell."What can I help you with sir? Please sir, just let Rachel away from this place so you won't be uoset just be seeing her" Mr Vic pleaded, giving Rapheal a suggestion."No! Rachel has to do this, if she doesn't like it, she might stop the job if she like" Raphael frowned his face and cke ched his fist."What do I have to do?" Rachel said, offering herself. She isn't thinking of living the job despite all that happened"Give all the workers in thus house a vacation, only Rachel should be the worker in this house. I want her to be doing all the cleaning of the house and cooking to" Raphael ordered with a cold face"Sir…" Mr Vic tried refuting but stoped, he understood the lose temper of his boss so he dares not get on his bad side."You can start working when you are ready. Otherwise, you can get out of this house, you have few minutes to decide" Raphael said firmly, looking at clock. He stood up and headed towards the exit.Rachel's sharp gaze that landed in Raphael made his felt like he was electrocuted by a Rachel's anger. Thus wasn't his first time feeling like so he returned his own gaze peircing gaze which most times made all of his employees scared of him."How dare her try to put out her anger on me?" Raphael asked himself on his way out of the dining room.When he got into his bedroom, he was suprised to see everything in a very clean and orderly manner. He knew Rachel must have done it because Mr Vic refused to clean his room until noon.A smirk appeared on his face as he did a quick scann of the room, ensuring nothing is lost in his room. He looked at his canvas which was place by the bedside and walked up to it.Seeing the picture of the lady beside the canvas, his hardened face was softened, all sign of anger left his face and all that was left was pity, pain and reverence.Raphael took his brush and decided to continue painting.Mr Vic who peeped into Raphael's rooms was not afraid of his boss's anger anymore. Although he doesn't know who that lady is but whenever his boss see that picture, he will calm down and all traces of anger will be be replaced by self pity"Yiy are lucky today is his painting day, you've cause so much trouble that for him to not get angry with you" Mr Vic said, condemned Rachel."Who is this sir? Who is this young man?" She asked Mr Vic who she was acquainted with."He is Mr Raphael, the owner of thus house, our boss, your boss to be more precise. You are lucky he his painting today or else, he would see to it that you never step back into this house" Mr Vic answered"Jeez. I'm really sorry, I thought Mr Raphael is supposed to be one aged man, like a man that will get around your age, I never thought hekl be this young. Forgive my actions earlier, I am new and doesn't know many things" Rachel answered quietly, lamenting get impudence. She even hit her own mouth which she always blame whenever she can't stop it from talking too much."Mr Raphael does not accepts pleads, hurry up and work hard, if nothing gets him angry till the end of today, he might not remember your actions earlier. Anyway, yiu will still be punished, no one ever escape ld his punishment, it just won't be as severe as the one he gave earlier" Mr Vic saidThe only day off Raphael's anger is any day he decided to paint, no one knows who the pado in the picture his but get picture alone always made Mr Raphael calmed down.Mr Vic took another glance at the room, he commended Rachel for such a hard work and asked her to leaveRachel smiled, remembering all that had happened to her thus last week..It turns out that in a wej, a person's fate and plan can be changed drastically and no one can stop the table from turning.But Rachel is still grateful, at least, sye is able to secure a job at the fastest speed, age looked at her watch and went to the kitchen.Later, she was sent by Mr Vic to go visit Raphael in case he needed her to get him anything. Rachel knocked on the door of Raphael's room and and put her ears on the door, trying to listen to what Raphael might say.Rachel heard Raphael speaking in Korea, she guessed he is in phone with someone so didn't knock again.Age doesn't understand why Raphael's voice gave to harsh everytime he speaks, conversation on phone is not limited.Rachel kept listening to Raphael's conversation. Not that sgr wants to spy on her boss, sge doesn't even understand Korea language but because she loved that language. She felt like she is watching a part of the tough scenes in get favorite Korea movie. She wishes she can speak that language but because she can't, sge takes her time listening to whoever can speak it.The door opened and Rapheal went back to seat, Rachel entered and shut the door.Raphael's speaking tone was emotional, listening to the tone while changing the bedsheets, Rachel was touched.Rachel sprinkle some baby powder on the white cotton sheets and smoothen them out with her hands before voverinythem with a layer of blanketsAfter keeping quiet for a long time, Raphael finally hunged up the phone, he was fed up of the conversation between him and his mum which is always to convince him to come back to Central City.Suddenly, Raphael turned around, without realizing it, he hit his leg on the stool on which the canvas was placed on and he stumbled towards Rachel who was standing beside his bed.He tried to hold onto Rachel so wouldn't fall but instead, he pushed Rachel on the bed. That didn't balanced his leg as he fell on Rachel, accidentally kissing her lips.Rachel was shocked and a scream ranged out if her mouthWithout taking a look at Rachel, he awkwardky got up her"You, why didn't you take the canvas outta my way?"He asked awkwardly"You should watch your way before passing, this is sexual harassment by ab employee" Rachel who has never kissed before was upset, thinking her boss was trying to steal a kiss from her"It's your fault, why are you trying to abuse me of sexual harassment now?" Raphael refuted the accusation instantly, not even caring that Rachel was a pretty lady. "she's still a novice" he commented on his heartWell, he didn't care!He cannot forget the memories of his late girlfriend who is also his first love. Laurel was a pretty lady and was loyal too. Raphael already vowed to her not to be tempted by any other girl and he is keeping that promise."Sir, you are the one who fell on me and also kissed me, was that my fault? I'm the victim in this situation, sir " Raphael said stubbornly, directly rejecting the accusation"Great. The residual case of the accident is your not doing your job perfectly, the stool and the canvas are n
"L-Luarel"He stammered due to the shock and the fear of seeing his ex girlfriend who was supposed to be dead. Laurel curled her lips into a smile as she stare her dead gaze at Raphael. Raphael doesn't know if he should be happy or afraid, this was his first and last love, she is dead but she is also right in front of him. "Laurel, how…how did you get in here?"He askedThe smile on Laurel's faxe suddenly dissapered"Don't leave me, Don't leave me"Laurel repeated and then vanished from the bed. …"Ah-Ah"Raphael screamed, jeering out of his sleeping position and sat on the bed, he was visibly shaking as an effect of such a terrible dream he had. Hus heart beat raced and his breathing became difficult. His breathe was shaky and loud as he was trying to breathe. The door to his room suddenly barged open. "Are you okay ,Mr Raphael, I heard Yi scream just now" Mr Vic asked with worries written all over his face. "It's nothing huh, it's just a dream" Raphael replied. Mr Vic didn'
"No, never will I get married to someone I do not love. Oh, you think you can just kick me out if the family, then trick me back into the house and then decide to marry me off?" Rachel argued rebelliously. Bang!"You don't talk back to your grandmother "After hitting his hand on the wooden table, Victor shouted at Rachel. Rachel screamed and took a few steps away from Victor. "It's getting out of hand, we need to interfere before their conversation results to violence" Rapheal whispered to Mr Vic outside the house. "You think it is okay to interfere in their family's business? We might be trespassing." Mr Vic whispered back. "No, it's not trespassing, we are trying to stop then from fighting. I thought you said you are acquainted with her father?" Raphael asked in a low voiceMr Vic took a deep breath and knock on the door. "Who's there?"An unfriendly voice sounded from the inside. The tone of the voice alone want to make Raphael turn back but he is determined to get Rachel out
Retracting her steps, Rachel walked back to Victor and her grandmother. "You already dishonored my father by sending away his family, I have no reason to keep such honor " Rachel scorned. "If you want honor your dead father, at least respect the family name and keep her dignity, the marriage has already been proposed" Victor lamented. "Says the same family thar sent me away. I have nothing to do with this family no more. But if you can really pay off the company for compensation, I'm ready to marry whoever you want" Rachel replied. Victor closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he knew they have lost their grasp of Rachel. "I guess that settles that" Rachel said taking Victor's silence as a no. During the ride, Rachel noticed that the driver turned back to the route they came from. "I thought you people are going to a business meeting, why did he turn back?"Victor twitched his lip and replied "about that, forget it". The ride continued in silence until Rachel's stomach growl
Not long after, Mr Vic entered the library with an unpleasant face"You called for me…Sir" he said. He didn't want to call Raphael sir but because Raphael had told him countless times, he did. "Yes I did. Please make Rachel a passport for our trip home in three weeks. Pay some extra money or do whatever you have to do to speed up the process and then, help her apply for a visa" Raphael replied feeling like a boss. "I understand all you said but I don't think there is a reason for Rachel to follow you to your parents, they've got assistants there too" Mr Vic replied sharply. "You know she's my personal assistant and she's special so…" Raphael replied leaving Mr Vic to complete the sentence. …Rachel on the other hand was moody, she felt like she was kicked when she recalled the expression on Raphael's face. Her colleagues noticed this and tried to pacify her, some tried getting words out of her mouth and others mocked her out of jealousy; she's the only employee their boss ever vis
"What are you doing currently?" Rapheal asked after the silence. "Nothing, today is a public holiday". Stanley, the guy on the other line replied. There's nothing bway Rapheal will know if public holiday is declared because his house workers are exempted from such holidays unless he permitted any of them. "I saw a mail on one of your emails stating the revoking of your rights from the company's, I hope you'll speak with your dad" Stanley continued"You have no worries, I have my plans on that. By the way, I need you to travel to Korea and help me prepare a marriage certificate. Also, the information of a lady will be sent to you by Mr Vic, you should register her as part of the Carl's family.""What!? Sir, there's no way I'll…" Stanley tried arguing but he was interrupted"Be fast too, your time is limited" Rapheal said in a cold voice "Sure" Stanley replied with a grumpy voice trying to avoid provoking his boss and then out in a suprised expression "sir, did you say a marriage cer
The cook was grateful that no one sees her but of course someone did. Thea, the newly recruited assistant to replace Rachel's position saw everything, she also knew everything Rapheal was going to do and they s made her more jealous of Rachel."I'm more pretty than that girl, I'll get to you soon" she said as she walked out of her hiding place. Thea was hired from an organization that provides people for all house works, she had a good record so Mr Vic thought Rapheal my ght like her. She thought she was lucky too until she was given some restrictions in the house but Rachel was completely free. To make things worse, she was put under Rachel's control. "The door opened and Stanley entered "morning boss, I made it early, right?" Stanley was looking stressed but was waiting for an appreciation from his boss. "How is it?" Rapheal asked coldly, he didn't even exchange greetings with Stanley Thanks s doesn't bother Stanley though, "it's all done, sir""Is my private plane ready?""Of c
Rachel stopped at the entrance area of the plane. In the area near the entrance, stood a beautiful flight attendant who glared at Rachel."Rachel, why are you standing there? Let's get on the plane" Mr Vic asked Rachel who was scared to step into the plane."Sir, I'm scared. This is the first time I will be on an airplane," Rachel replied with a teary voice Rapheal rushed out and grabbed Rachel's hand. It was unexpected that he pulled Rachel's hand into the plane.Rapheal sat her in the seat next to his own and helped her to put on the seat belt."Sir, I'm scared. This is my first time on an airplane" Rachel said holding her hand tightly to the hand of Rapheal who was sitting next to her"can you let go of my hand so I can put my seat belt on?" asked Rapheal who thought of this simple girl next to him.Rachel let go of her tight grip and looked out the airplane window. The flight attendant came to serve warm towels and champagne for arrival drinks.Rachel who was nervous drank the alc
William froze while gaping in shock until he was unable to speak when he was reunited with the figure who should be his wife."Y-yeah?" Lobster William Bergetar great.The beautiful Korean-blooded girl smiled sweetly. "Yes, it's me Yoo Na.William reflexively rubbed his eyes, trying to make sure that the girl standing in front of him wasn't a ghost."H-how .... " William was at a loss for words to define his feelings now. William's chest was tight and his breath caught because he forgot to breathe for a while.William immediately shook his head quickly. "No, no, no! I must be dreaming or hallucinating! Wake up soon William!" William patted his cheeks until they blushed."Hey! What are you doing? You can ruin your handsome face!" Yoo Na immediately held William's hand so he wouldn't pat his cheek again.William immediately ran away and stood in the corner of the room. "Please ... don't bother me, Yoo Na! I'm already happy with Amelia, my wife. So I beg you to let me live happily with h
Refra and his four men were enjoying food at a simple stall on the side of the road.Refra was engrossed in eating his food without caring about his surroundings."After returning home from her wedding, it was reported that Amelia was kidnapped by an unknown thug. Now, the authorities are busy trying to find the whereabouts of William's wife near the crime scene. It is possible that the kidnappers brought the victim to the nearest place from the crime scene."Refra choked until she coughed at the news. He immediately grabbed a nearby glass and downed it almost to the bottom."Boss, why? Why is the boss coughing so much?""Careful with the food, Boss. It's choking, isn't it!""Shut up! Who told you to be noisy, huh?!Do you really want to get fired?!" snapped Refra ignited with emotion.The four men immediately fell silent.Refra returns to watching television,which is showing a female reporter explaining in detail the moment Amelia was kidnapped.Isn't Amelia the wife of a celebrity f
The thug came back inside after he finished calling someone."WHO ACTUALLY BROUGHT YOU UP,HUH?! IF YOU WERE PAID, I COULD GIVEMORE MONEY THAN THAT WOMANGIVES YOU! BUT PLEASE RELEASE ME!" Amelia shouted loudly."NOISE! CAN'T YOU BE SILENT, HUH?! DO YOU NEED TO SEW YOUR MOUTH!" The man glared at Amelia angrily. Engrossed in playing cards, it turned out that the woman had managed to remove the cloth gag from her mouth."I DON'T CARE ANY MONEY YOU PROMISEME! I WILL NOT RELEASE YOU!"William, I beg you ... please help me. I'm so scared, whispered Amelia with a tormented mind."The lady earlier told us to inject the woman with anesthetic. Here, the medicine .... " The thug, who was talking to the main culprit, handed his comrades a small medicine box filled with anesthetic bottles and injections."NO! PLEASE .... !" Amelia bursts into tears, wishing the three had mercy on her.'FREE YOU'RE CRYING! EVEN UNTIL YOU CRY BLOOD, I WILL NOT RELEASE YOU!" snapped the man with the strongest buil
"LET ME! RELEASE ME!" Amelia thrashed as hard as she could. Two people sat on her left and right holding the poor woman's arms.The magnificent white dress that Amelia was wearing, was now a blood red color. Blood continued to flow profusely from the cuts on Amelia's arms and face."SHUT UP!" The thug, on Amelia's left, spontaneously slapped William's wife in the face. "DO YOU WANT TO BE DISPOSED IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS FOREST, HUH?!" The thug's denunciation was no longer strong. Amelia's shrill scream made her eardrums want to burst."WHO ARE YOU ACTUALLY, HUH?! WHYDID YOU KIDNAPPY ME?! ARE YOU GETTING PEOPLE?!" Amelia screams in rage and frustration. The beautiful woman refused to be silent, even though her cheeks felt hot and sore."THAT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!""YOU ALSO DON'T NEED TO KNOW WHO Told US TO KIDNAPT YOU!" continued the thug who was engrossed in smoking in the driver's seat."YOU BETTER BE SILENT! IN A MINUTEYOU WILL KNOW WHO DOES IT THAT HAS ORDERED US!""CERTAINLY
"Who are you?! How dare you enter this house without permission!" snapped a burly manGrandmother Nengah's guts immediately sank. The old woman immediately grinned innocently. "Sorry, Taun. I'm here looking for Mami Elsa?""Who is Grandma?! What need doesGrandma want to meet with Mami Elsa?!? The man put his hands on his hips while looking at Grandma Nengah sharply.Unlucky! Why is my life always surrounded by assholes?! Grandma smiled awkwardly.'Grandmother came here because she had business with Mami Elsa," he explained, trying to be honest rather than turning himself into a pulp because he was beaten by the man."What kind of business?!" The man continued to interrogate Grandma Nengah."Business .... " Grandmother Nengah lost for words."What's all this fuss?" A woman's voice interrupted Grandma Nengah.The three aides immediately pulled over and bowed respectfully to Mami Elsa.This ... madam ... this grandmother wants to meet madam. She said ... wants to take madam to do busine
Grandmother Nengah grunted in annoyance while walking down the sidewalk. Again, Granny Nengah's plan failed because of the head of the thugs. Even though Grandma Nengah was only one step away from being able to sell Amelia in order to get coffers of money as well as revenge because her son of a bitch just watched silently as her husband, William, humiliated Grandma Nengah in public."No! I can't just give up! I have to be able to sell Amelia, no matter what! I can't accept her being happy over my misery! In one day I was struck by two bad luck! One cheated, the second humiliated in front of many people! Amelia must be having fun on their wedding day!" muttered Granny Nengah clenching her fists tightly.Grandmother Nengah would never forgive Amelia and William. Grandma Nengah was determined to do anything to destroy the happiness of the two of them today. When Grandma Nengah recalled William's actions at the wedding and found Amelia and Mrs. Helda just quietly watching Grandma Nengah's
Mrs. Kadek laughed with satisfaction when she saw Grandma Nengah in the camera's spotlight screaming hysterically at the police guard tent.Feel it, Devil Woman! I can finally see your destruction! Maki Bu Ledek smiled triumphantly.Mrs. Kadek's efforts for months to lure Grandmother Nengah into her trap, yielded no results. Now Grandmother Nengah was crushed in the trap that Mrs. Kadek made.Mrs. Kadek opened her desk drawer and took out a red folder. He opened it with a satisfied smile. In the end, Mrs. Kadek succeeded in taking away the certificate from Grandma Nengah's house and turning it over in her own name.Now, Grandma Nengah will live in limbo on the streets as a homeless person. This is because the house, which was the only property of her ex-mother-in-law, has fallen into the hands of Mrs. Kadek. As a result, Grandma Nengah had no other hope of getting money to continue her life.That means Grandma Nengah will forever live in misery on the streets as a beggar, busker or sc
William dragged Grandma Nengah's hand by force. He really couldn't control his anger anymore seeing Grandma Nengah's behavior, who was always in trouble. In fact, on her happiest day, Grandma Nengah brought chaos to the guests."LET GRANNY, WILLIAM!" Grandma Nengah shouted angrily, panicked and afraid. He rebelled with all his might so that he would not reach the mothers who were his victims."YOU ARE VERY IMPOSSIBLE TO TREAT YOUR OWN WIFE'S GRANNA LIKE THIS! WHERE ARE YOUR COURTS, HUH?!"Grandma Nengah deliberately shouted loudly to be the center of attention. He wantedto worsen William's image in front of his colleagues and all the spectators who were watching William and Amelia's wedding on television."I DON'T CARE ANYMORE! EVEN AMELIAHATES MY OWN GRANDMAN BECAUSE OFGRANNA'S EVIL AND VIOLENT ATTITUDE!""SO YOU ARE ALSO EATED BY THEIRSPEECH, HUH?! THEY ARE ONLY ENVYWITH GRANDNA BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT FOR granny to join in on your wealth! EVEN THOUGH MENEK NEVER TRYING TO SLEEP
'Devi! Quickly give Daddy some more money!" Or Devi's orders when visiting the princess's house."What's wrong daddy?! Yesterday, didn't I give you a lot of money! How come it's gone so fast!" Devi protested furiously. His father grew quieter, more sobbing.Every day, Devi's father would press her to give him the money. Even though all this time Devi has always given money to live up to one month. However, the father instead spent it in one day."That's none of your business! Quickly give Daddy some more money than yesterday! Because Daddy has to go back to the club again!" Devi's father insisted."Don't tell me you're back to gambling again, right?!" shouted Devi angrily. How come? His father always spent a lot of time with Devi's monthly allowance that Thomas gave him. How could it be, Devi asked for more money, Thomas might be suspicious and hate him and his father.Even though Devi is Thomas' wife, that doesn't mean Devi necessarily usesThomas' money as she pleases. Thomas was in
