Chapter 04

Kimberly thought she heard it wrong but the deadly stare she saw informed her of the harsh truth.

“You should go over the contract once I get you a copy,” he said.

“Do I need to serve you?” She asked.

“You don’t ask me questions! I own you from now on for the next 120 days” he said to her.

Kimberly shuddered in fear as she slowly rises to her feet. She started with the first button, the second, and the third when Stone’s phone rang on the table.

He picked up the call without breaking glances with her but then his facial expression changed and emotion crossed his eyes. That seems to be the first time Kimberly would see actual emotion on his poker face.

He left in a hurry without saying a word to Kimberly.

She followed him but stopped when she heard him talking to the head maid. 

“Treat her well and respect her like the lady of the house”

The head maid and the rest of the maids answered in unison.

She rushed to the window and watched him drive away from the parking lot.

She was confused the more!

A knock on the door smacked her out of her thought and she quickly turned to receive the person.

Rose, the head maid came inside with a mean and straight face.

If Kimberly could read minds, she would be on her escape run already.

Rose has been with the Maxwells for a long time and she serves Mr.Stone especially. She knew of his sexual illness that affects him once a month. Just like other greedy women out there, she’s been waiting to get on his bed around that period of the month. She planned to drug his drink, sneak into his room, and blamed him until Kimberly ruined that for her.

After murdering Kim in all ways possible in her head, she forced out a smile.

“You should clean up, we will prepare your meal now,” said.

Kimberly replied with a faint smile “I’m all good, I took my bath already”

Kimberly regretted saying that the moment it rolled off her tongue as Rose shot her a murderous stare.

“You are in the Maxwells and I told you that he’s strict with hygiene, I told you when you came as a MAID yesterday,” she said stressing the maid for her.

Kimberly knew she has gotten herself in trouble and hoped she could turn back the hands of the clock.

She wished for everything to go back in time and promised not to question God even if she was the only one that remembers.

“Nice work gold digger” Rose muttered silently as she exits the door.

Kimberly fell to the ground about to cry again.

She wished Stone to come back soon even though his presence is deadlier but at least the maids should fear him and let her be.

SOMEWHERE UNKNOWN

The cold, ruthless Stone was gone in a flash, he looks worried and caring as he stayed in front of his brother’s bed.

He received a call that he moved his finger and he was so happy but when he arrived at the hospital, he only switched to a vegetative state.

Daniel Maxwell is the older son of the Maxwells household but he went into a coma after he survived a fire incident; a crazy fraudulent woman entered his life and ruined it. She gave birth to his twin boys whom he’s now looking after. She sold his properties and left with his money.

Stone had never met the woman because he was running his business in the states but when he heard of the serious incident, he came back home to his brother.

The only thing he saw in his house was a picture of the woman. He explained the whole thing to him before his health got serious and he went into Coma.

Since then, he’s been on the lookout for the vicious woman for revenge.

He took his phone to place a call to one of his men.

“Transfer the woman to my vacation house and hire lots of maids to tend to her,” he said.

He glanced up and down his brother’s bed with love in his eyes.

“Hang in there buddy,” he said.

               ***********

It’s night already and Mr.Stone hasn’t yet arrived. 

Kimberly could not handle the deadly glares from the maids so she went back upstairs to the room she was given.

She sat inside the bedroom quietly as she waited for Mr. Stone’s arrival.

"Pop!" After she heard that sound, the entire mansion was shrouded in darkness. It seemed like there was a power outage.

Facing the total darkness, Kimberly trembled with fear.

She was really afraid of the dark.

Now that she was in a new environment, she was already worried in the first place. She couldn't believe that there would be a power failure the moment she entered her room. Subconsciously, Kimberly hugged her knees as she shivered in the dark.

She was so lost in thought that she didn’t know Mr.Stone made his entrance. The sound of the door slamming shut startled her and the light came back on.

Kimberly stuttered a welcome as she raised herself.

She feared the look in Stone’s eyes, it was entirely different and colder than the one she witnessed.

“We have an unfinished business, right Kim?” He said to her. Her name rolled off perfectly off his tongue.

She swallowed hard on her saliva.

“Take off your dress,” he said to her.

Kimberly looked so pitiful with her innocent baby face. She’s a very pretty young lady with long auburn hair and gold streak eyes. Her nose shaped to perfection and her full lips seem to accentuate her features.

Kimberly was still on the second button and her exposed cleavage seem to be sending Stone off the edge.

His eyes were roofed with lust and anger.

“Stop!” He said.

“We are visiting the doctor tomorrow to flush everything out of your system,” he said to her then left the room....TBC
