The Billionaire's Housemaid Visit
Rowan was surprised by David's Father's request, and she paused for a moment. On the other end of the phone, David's Father seemed to anticipate her reaction.He let out a long sigh before speaking again, "I understand if you find it awkward. I've distanced myself from the David family. I realize it might be a bit difficult for you to visit an old man like me.""It's not what you think," she quickly clarified, "I'm just not sure if it's appropriate for me to come over."Rowan couldn't forget what Flora had mentioned. Flora had mentioned that she was looking after David's father almost every day at the David family house. Given this situation, Rowan was really hoping to avoid running into her.Flora was manipulative and cunning. Rowan worried that seeing her at the David family house might lead to negative thoughts and unpleasant outcomes for Rowan herself.David's Father's voice became softer as he responded, "Even though I'm unwell, I still have a say in family matters. All I'm askin
The Billionaire's Housemaid The sick man
Rowan looked really scared. Her lips moved, but no words came out. It happened a few times.When David talked, he wasn't trying to keep his voice down. His mom might not have heard them well because he was far away. But the housekeeper was right there and heard everything.David didn't expect his young master to react so much to seeing Rowan here.After being surprised for a moment, she stepped up to talk to Rowan."Sir, it's true. The boss asked Miss Rowan to come, and he even told me to come and welcome her."David changed his face from a half-smile to serious and nodded at him.He couldn't deny that his father had sent for her. So he said, "You can show her in."But you could still tell from his eyes that he didn't think Rowan was innocent.After that, he seemed done talking. He walked around Rowan and went upstairs first.He walked over to his mom's side and held her hand."Come on, Mom."David's mom pointed at Rowan, looking upset."Why don't you just tell her to leave right away
The Billionaire's Housemaid You are ordering me
David's father gave Rowan a strange look."He's done similar things before, so I won't trust him easily."He stopped for a moment and then said, "But what's more important is that I don't believe David is that kind of person."Rowan held the water glass tightly and didn't say anything. David's father sighed and spoke slowly."Rowan, you might think I'm just trying to protect him, but I've seen him grow up. He's never been the type to act irresponsibly, like getting someone pregnant before getting divorced. It just doesn't seem like something he would do."So, it was just David's father guessing.Rowan felt relieved. She didn't want to hide the truth from David's father, but she knew that if she revealed she overheard Flora talking to the unfamiliar man, she would be in trouble given the current situation.David's father will investigate everything because of what she said. Whether her words turned out to be true or not, would David forgive her and disrupt her life again?When she reme
The Billionaire's Housemaid The Inextricable Misunderstanding
Rowan's words exploded like a chain of firecrackers, immediately igniting David's fury.A pang of pain shot through his clenched jaw, signaling his struggle to maintain control over his emotions."Why am I the cause of his sadness? Explain it clearly," he demanded.His grip paid no heed to Rowan's emotions, causing tears to well up in her eyes from the pain.Aware that any response might further fuel his rage, she pressed her lips together and remained silent.David gripped her chin, forcing her face upward.In a cold tone, he ordered, "Speak!"Her movement triggered the release of two tears that coursed from the corners of her eyes, tracing a path down her cheeks to fall upon his hands.The searing heat on his fingers jolted David into a moment of awareness. Before him stood a woman, her pallor accentuated by the glisten of tears.He detected a slight tremor in her body.Is she afraid of him?Becoming aware of his actions, he eased his grip on her, though his tone remained harsh."Th
The Billionaire's Housemaid Moving into new house
"I don't agree!" Rolland's response was blunt."There's no rush to move out so quickly. You can continue living with me for a while and then gradually find a suitable place."Originally, Rowan and James had set up an appointment to view the house. Upon learning about it, Rolland spent a considerable time negotiating the terms, seemingly intending to accompany her.He claimed he was there to assist her in making an informed choice, yet from his expression now, Rowan felt as if he had already decided to object right then and there.Helplessly, she offered, "Rolland, I find this place quite fitting."He remained obstinate in his stance."I don't think it's the right move! Rushing into a decision after a couple of showings is ill-advised. If you end up dissatisfied, changing your mind later will be even more troublesome."Rowan gestured with her hands, exasperated. "Where exactly is it unsuitable?"Rolland was momentarily speechless."The decor is excellent, the rent is affordable, and it
The Billionaire's Housemaid Repay the debt
Richard walked into the coffee shop for his meeting with Rowan. As soon as he entered, he spotted Rowan sitting by the window, wearing a pale yellow dress and looking lost in thought.His footsteps slowed down when he heard a noise. He walked towards her table uncertainly. It wasn't that he was too noticeable, but the big white dog sitting beside him was drawing a lot of attention.He approached gradually, and the white dog gazed at him with its head tilted, not taking its eyes off him. The dog even stuck out its tongue in an adorable way.Even though the dog seemed friendly, Richard took cautious steps. He didn't want to startle the dog and cause any trouble in the cafe.Richard was also puzzled about Rowan's sudden invitation. He moved closer to the small table by the window. Finally, Rowan turned around from staring outside, noticing his arrival.She stood up and greeted him with a smile, "You're here."Richard glanced at the white dog resting by her feet. The dog remained in its s

David put down the pen he had picked up less than a minute ago. He leaned back in his office chair. He looked carefully at his secretary and asked, "When did she come to see you?" Richard replied honestly, "Just now, during lunch break." "She told you to send a message. You need to send it, Richard. Remember, I'm the one who pays your salary." David's words didn't scare Richard. He replied confidently, "Yes, it's you. That's why I work hard to solve your problems." David smirked. He reached out with his slim fingers, picked up a cowhide envelope from the table, and tossed it in Richard's direction. "Take this and go." After saying that, he went back to looking at the documents on the table, ignoring how Richard reacted. With a sigh, Richard reached out and took the envelope. He had thought Mr. David would ask some questions, but he wasn't even mentioning names now. Suddenly, Richard felt a bit embarrassed. He turned around and took a couple of steps before something crossed h
The Billionaire's Housemaid Leftovers
After work, David didn't go straight to the apartment.He texted Flora about working overtime, but she accidentally drove the car back to the mansion.The day after Rowan moved out, he returned alone to see it.The room hasn't really changed. She didn't take much when she left, but it now feels much emptier.The silence, with no one around, made the mansion feel like a deserted and lifeless city.He stood in the living room for a bit. He didn't even go upstairs to check what she had taken. So, he turned and walked away.Today, these thoughts came to him. Maybe Richard's words made him remember someone, or maybe it's because this time has been really tiring.Both the Thompson family's old house and Flora's side have their own opinions, pushing him to take their side, and it's making him uneasy.All he wanted was to find a calm, quiet place to get a good night's sleep. But it seems like things are changing faster than his plans.He had just parked the car and was about to open the door

The Billionaire's Housemaid New Alert!!!!
Instantly, the air around David crackled with tension. He swiftly shed his suit, the fabric feeling heavy in his trembling as he handed it over to Richard, who felt like crying at the back of his boss—this was all his boss had been working for in the past few months: to have Miss Rowan to himself finally, without fear of Flora hurting her again. Just then, James' phone buzzed, interrupting the silence that engulfed the atmosphere. Seeing the caller, James picked up at once. "Hello, babe," James said into the phone, drawing curious glances from David and Richard. To them, only Rowan would receive such a nickname. Seeing their suspicious gazes, he switched the phone to loudspeaker. "Hi, Naomi, you can speak now," James invited. "Miss Rowan has been rushed to the hospital. She's unable to fly; she started having contractions before she entered the plane," Naomi informed them. Before James could reply, David snatched the phone from his hands. "Miss Naomi, this is her husband at the ho
The Billionaire's Housemaid The wedding day
The room was alive with happiness as Flora jubilated, knowing that in a few hours, every TV station and blogger would be buzzing about her wedding to David Thompson, the president of the Oregon group of companies."As the heiress of Seraphims Holding, I only deserve the best," Flora declared from where she lay on the bed, with Andrew planting kisses on her neck and along her jawline."You know I will compensate you handsomely. I panicked when I found out David had regained his memory but didn't want me anymore. I thought everything was over, after years of patiently waiting," Flora confessed, a smile playing on her lips."I've told you that you don't have any problems. Since you've opened up to me about your true feelings and that it's me you love, and only his money you desire, since you've promised that it's my child you'll carry in his house, then I don't have any issues. The wedding is set to proceed, and in a few hours, you'll be Mrs. Thompson officially, but inwardly, you'll be M
The Billionaire's Housemaid Steve decision
It had been a few days, and tension hung thick in the air as Steve returned to James's house to deliver his response. The silence that filled the room was deafening, each breath heavy with anticipation. Jessica, though she thought she was prepared for any outcome, couldn't help but rub her hands together nervously. Ryan, sensing the tension, rested his head on her lap, his instincts picking up on the palpable anxiety swirling around them. "So, brother, have you finally made your decision?" James asked, his tone harsh yet tinged with regret. In the past few days, he had come to realize that his emotions had clouded his judgment. He understood that everything Steve had done was out of love for him — Steve didn't want him to lose the love of his life, just as James had lost his. It was this realization that had prompted James to allow Steve to make his own decision, even if it meant James would have to bear the pain of parting with his brother, if only for a while. "Yes, kid brother,"
The Billionaire's Housemaid Knowing the truth
What?" David's father asked, surprised by his son's allegations. "Dad, answer me. Are you involved with her too?" David demanded. "No, I'm not. And I'm disappointed that you would think so little of your father," David's father said. "I don't care, Dad. If she knows something about you significant enough to trade for my safety, then it must be substantial, and I need to know about it today," David said defiantly "Sit down, and I will tell you everything," David's father said. Reluctantly, David slumped into the chair, his anger palpable, emanating from him like a dark cloud. "Firstly, I discovered the kind of person Flora was after you started seeing her. Knowing how much you love her compelled me to dig deeper. I didn't want you to end up with the wrong woman. After finding out that she was involved with different men, I decided to confront her myself instead of letting you do it. During our conversation, she confessed that her uncle had forced her into those situations and that
The Billionaire's Housemaid Secret
"What do you mean, David? It was the marriage certificate we both signed, isn't that what we both wanted back then? Just because you didn't have the memory doesn't change the fact that your mother is aware of it, and a mother can't lie," Flora's voice came over the phone, her tone laced with frustration and desperation. She wasn't even attempting to come to David's house, realizing she had nothing left to lose."Flora, even if it is true, I don't want this marriage anymore. We have to annul the certificate," David stated firmly, using a word he never wanted to utter."What? David, are you trying to use me and then discard me? We've been dating for almost seven years. Now you don't want me anymore, and you didn't consider the repercussions it will have on my family and me, on the company, on everyone who believed we would end up together... I won't force you, David, but think about the consequences. We are legally married starting next week. If we don't announce it publicly, I don't kn
The Billionaire's Housemaid Where did you get it?
Naomi could only hum softly as she listened to Rowan's teasing remarks. Bending down, she reached for the coffee cups placed in front of them, an order she had made for both of them. Savoring the warmth, she took a delicate sip before carefully placing the cup back on the table.Inwardly, Naomi grasped the subtle undertones of Rowan's words. Since meeting James, she felt a shift within herself, a desire to embody qualities that might earn his admiration. But could she confide in Rowan that the catalyst for her change was the very man who harbored feelings for her?"Miss Rowan, I can't say there's any love involved. Let's just say someone's critique nudged me towards self-improvement," Naomi replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. Rowan's gentle smile lingered, leaving Naomi to ponder if her response had hit the mark."You know, being challenged by someone and feeling compelled to better oneself because of them, well, it's akin to love. You might not realize it now, but soon enough
The Billionaire's Housemaid The Rude girl
Before James exited the hospital, he had arranged to meet Naomi, only to hear the distressing news that she was banned from leaving the house. Naomi, a pivotal figure in her father's company, had inadvertently stirred up trouble by being seen at clubs, inviting scrutiny from shareholders and adding pressure to her father's plate. She was slated to marry into another wealthy family to enhance the company's stature. James, though conflicted, found himself driving toward Naomi's house despite his vow to stay away and avoid complicating matters for both families. The prospect of being desired by Naomi's father for his daughter weighed heavily on him, even as he questioned his own intentions. Arriving at the grand mansion, James couldn't help but admire the exquisite taste of Naomi's father. The meticulously landscaped gardens, the elegant architecture both inside and out, and the grandeur of the estate left James in awe, despite his familiarity with opulent surroundings. "It seems I'll
