Maid for the Billionaire 21
“What else do I need?” I asked Charlotte. We were at the national bookstore because I needed to buy school supplies.“Binder, like that one, ball pen,” she replied, rolling her eyes at me, while browsing through books. I had the basket, and as I roamed around, I left her there. I didn’t know what kind of magic my boss used, but two days after I agreed to go back to school, she came home last night with my certificate of enrollment.She said that to keep me away from any issues, she made me a scholar, a full scholarship. This morning, before she went to work, while I was preparing breakfast for her, she handed me her ATM and told me to buy what I needed.At first, of course, I didn’t agree. I didn’t know what I needed. I’m an undergraduate Business student, but I can’t remember why I chose t

“Maybe you should switch faces with your cellphone screen, huh?” I ignored what James said and continued tinkering with my new phone. “It’s not for the clueless, you know.”“If I slap you right now, would you shut up? I’m quiet here, why don’t you go over there? You stink, you smell like a woman,” I retorted sharply.“Wow, you smell so nice, it’s embarrassing. There are so many girls swooning over you—”“Who told you I’m a girl? Get out!” I shouted, ready to kick him, but he stood up and quickly moved away from me. “Ugh, so annoying,” I muttered, then refocused on what I was doing.I was in Kalix’s office; he was late for his lunch, so I brought it for him. But this freak—James, that is—said he was in a meeting, so he was also waiting.“I heard you’re back to school, are you planning to cut classes already?” I rolled my eyes, took a deep breath, fate was testing me again, and the demon was here again.“Yeah, and I’ll come to tie you up,” I replied. “Yes! I retrieved it, damn it,” I had

“How’s your second day?” Boss immediately asked as I slipped off my shoes and collapsed onto the long sofa upon finally entering. “You look exhausted. Is it really tough catching up with the lessons you’ve missed?”I nodded and shifted in my seat. “It’s not just the lessons that are challenging to grasp, but also some of my classmates, can you believe it?” I sat up and faced him as he continued to glance at his phone. “There’s this kid there, almost the same age as my sibling, just a bit older. And you know what? He’s bitter. He’s been picking on me since yesterday, but luckily, I’ve got a thick skin and a quick mind. I already know what he’s up to, so I manage to avoid him. But still…” I shifted positions, catching his attention, and he finally put away his phone. “It’s exhausting, you know? Constantly wondering if he’s going to do something or if he’s just in a bad mood. Just the thought of having to deal with him for a few months tires me out,” I slumped back onto the sofa.“But yo

“Hey, Samantha!” I paused in writing my notes when I heard someone call my name. I looked up and saw Dexter, my classmate, waving and running over to my desk. “What are you doing?”I just nodded and smiled slightly. “Notes for the exam,” I replied briefly, but I answered his question.“Cool, would you mind if I join you here?” I just shrugged, but he didn’t meet my gaze. “Who are you having lunch with later?”“I have something to do during lunch, so I might just grab something to go,” I pointed out the rice meals around the campus. It’s a common practice, especially when you’re short on time.“Midterms is approaching, do you have the scope you have to study, since you’re a late enrollee, right?” he asked again, causing me to pause and look at him. He let out a soft laugh. “I see, still catching up? Here, I can help you with that.” He said, taking off his backpack and pulling out a sheet of yellow paper. He handed it to me. “These are the scopes, you can find them on our portal, just c

“Okay, class dismissed,” I lazily stood up from my seat. I’ve been hungry since earlier, but I couldn’t decide what I wanted to eat. I winced as I felt a pang of pain in my abdomen, it was really uncomfortable.“Hey, Samantha!” I didn’t even bother to look back and just kept walking. “Hey, I’m calling you, why aren’t you answering—whoah! What’s with the eye bags? Looks like the panda is embarrassed for you,” he said with a smirk.“Not now, don’t joke around when I’m on my period,” I replied, continuing to walk.He walked alongside me, and because he’s well-known in the university, many people were looking at us as we walked. Most of them were probably wondering why we were together, of course, it’s an issue. But what they didn’t know is that my companion is also looking for a scapegoat, perhaps I’ll be the one to take the fall when they find out this guy’s dark secret.“And now, you’re smiling like a creepy guy or something,” the smirk faded from my face as I looked at him, his eyebro

“What the fuck are you doing, Samantha?!” I heard Kalix shout, but I ignored him and continued packing some clothes into my bag.All that’s on my mind now is to go home because of what my mother said. I can feel my hands trembling.“Samantha!” I was startled when two hands grabbed my shoulders and turned me around. “Samantha, tell me, what the hell is happening?”My heartbeat seemed to slow down, and the surroundings fell silent. “Kalix,” I whispered involuntarily.“What’s happening, Samantha? Why are you packing your things?” This time, his voice was calmer than before.“It’s dad,” I murmured, but I knew he heard me. My knees felt weak, and I sank onto the bed. “It’s my fault he died,” tears streamed down my cheeks, “Because of me, he wasn’t treated in time, they didn’t admit him to the hospital because they didn’t have the money.”Kalix sat in front of me, and I couldn’t tell if he was worried or confused. I couldn’t read his expression. “Okay, calm down first, Samantha,” I took a d

R-18“Are you okay now?” My gaze shifted from the glass window of the hotel we were in. It was evident from here how heavy the rain was. “Here, drink this.”He handed me the coffee, still steaming hot. I could see the steam rising. I blew on it gently before taking a sip.“Thank you, Boss. It’s embarrassing that you witnessed the family riot back there,” I chuckled slightly, but I felt like crying at any moment. My mother’s words from earlier were still ringing in my ears.I was used to her harsh words, especially when she was angry, but this seemed different. It felt like she had been holding back for a long time, and now it all came pouring out. The weight of her words felt heavy on me.“Don’t mention it, I already expected this would happen,” he said, causing me to furrow my brow and look at him. “What?” he seemed puzzled, “I look and listen, Samantha. I saw how your family treats you before this happened.”“But they’re still my family, so I know it’s not true. It’s just my mother’

R-18“Uh,” I didn’t know where to turn my head.“You’re a very bad girl, Naya, you’re already wet,”Even with my eyes closed, I managed to get annoyed. “Can you do that later? You keep speaking in English, it’s distracting, honestly. I need to think about how to respond to you.”I heard his soft chuckle, so I opened my eyes, but it seemed wrong. My eyes widened when I saw a sergeant in front of me, still saluting!I felt embarrassed and tried to cover my exposed body.I couldn’t explain his expression. It must be what they call a “dark look.”“Very beautiful,” I heard him say, suddenly grabbing my face and kissing me. “Do you want me to stop, Naya? You should tell me now, because if not, I won’t be able to stop later.” His voice was ragged, controlling, and deep.He seemed to be struggling to breathe due to the intense restraint. I could even hear his clenched jaw and gritting teeth.I didn’t respond and just looked at him, feeling something in my lower abdomen wanting to come out, a
