The Billionaire's Housemaid Where is Rolland's house?
After Rowan's initial sentence, she hesitated to continue as she knew it wasn't the right time for serious discussions in the breakfast shop. But after a moment of thought, she carried on."Last night, when I decided to move out of the mansion, I wasn't worried because I knew you would welcome me without any hesitation. I didn't even need to ask for confirmation. I guess I'm just not used to relying on others so easily. You see, my family situation makes me always consider others and their needs, leaving no room to think about myself.""I'm sorry if I misunderstood you, Rolland. I truly consider you a good friend, and I never see you as an outsider."Upon hearing this, most of Rolland's anger subsided.Still not ready to let her off the hook, he mumbled a few words. "But you can't stay up all night, afraid of bothering me. Next time something happens, who knows what you might do to yourself!"Rowan smiled warmly, "Okay, I promise not to do that again. From now on, if anything happens,
The Billionaire's Housemaid On Monday
Um?"Rowan didn't understand James at first, so he repeated, "Where is Rolland's home, I'll find you.""Uh... now? No need, it's late now, so I won't bother you to come here. Don't worry, I'm okay with her!"The phone went quiet.The silence felt like the night, spreading on both sides of the phone. James's long silence made Rowan feel a little guilty. She felt like she took advantage of him and then pushed him away.But her feelings towards James were too complicated at the moment, and she didn't want to see him in person today.She tried to explain, "Rolland will be back soon, and it's too early for us to clean up properly. Plus, you won't have time to stay when you come. Let's meet at the clinic on Monday."After a while, James finally accepted her explanation and returned to his usual gentle tone."Okay, then see you at the clinic on Monday. Take care of yourself.""Um!"Rowan waited for him to hang up first. But he suddenly spoke seriously, "Rowan, if you need my help with anythi
The Billionaire's Housemaid Searching for the Williams family
The waiter, with a friendly smile, helped them order food and pour drinks before leaving.Rowan and James sat facing each other, and neither of them spoke for a while.James looked down at the light blue tablecloth with delicate lace, as if lost in thought.Ever since Rowan had an idea in the restroom and realized she was avoiding talking to him, she wished she could just leave without saying anything.She sat quietly for a moment, trying to change the subject. She asked some questions about Bingo and talked about work.However, when James looked deeply into her eyes, Rowan knew she couldn't avoid the conversation.With pale lips, James gently asked, "Rowan, are you in such a hurry to move away because of David?"Rowan softly responded with a hint of stiffness in her tone, "It's something between me and him, and I'd rather not discuss it with others."Despite her reluctance to share, James persisted, asking honestly, "Tell me the truth, is it because of... me?"Rowan felt the urge to
The Billionaire's Housemaid James William Identity
Rolland climbed onto the bed from the other side and stretched out his hand, shaking it in front of Rowan."What are you thinking? You seem lost in thought."Rowan snapped back to reality and handed her phone to Rolland."Take a look at this."Rolland looked at the phone suspiciously and saw news articles that Rowan had just searched for.Casually swiping his fingers, Rolland's eyes widened as he went through the information. Finally, he raised his phone in disbelief, pointing to a somewhat unclear half-length photo on the phone."Rowan, is this James Williams? The one who came to see the house with us a few days ago, your new boss, James Williams? According to what's written here, his house... is almost as good as David's!"Rowan took a moment to process it all, and the initial shock wore off.She nodded and confirmed, "Look at his bio. He graduated from a medical university in London, and the timing of his study abroad matches what he told me. And even though the hat in the photo is
The Billionaire's Housemaid Meet again
Rowan sat down on the sofa by the wall according to her words, and took the water poured by James, she took a sip.Then he said slowly, "James, are you from Mexico?"James was drinking the water in his cup, but he paused when he heard this question.He put down the water glass and said, "Yeah, what's wrong?"Then, as if remembering something, he suddenly smiled and said, "You finally know."Rowan was not in such a good mood as he was. She stared into his clear eyes and asked seriously."Are you really from that Williams family?"James replied frankly, "Yes."Rowan had expected this answer a long time ago, so she wasn't too surprised.What she wanted to ask more were the doubts that had lingered in her mind from the moment she knew his identity."Your family has so many businesses in Mexico, no, there are so many businesses across the country, why don't you stay in Mexico, instead come to London to open a clinic?"James had His smile on the corner of his mouth, and his attitude was sti
The Billionaire's Housemaid Confrontation
Flora wore a loose skirt, and even though she was two or three months pregnant, her belly wasn't obvious yet. She wore high heels that were 35 cm tall, making her look smaller and very delicate. Beside her, the man standing was not very strong, but compared to Flora, he seemed taller. The man had a very fair face, but there was a bit of a creepy expression on his handsome face. Both he and Flora looked unhappy. Rowan looked at the man for a brief moment and felt like she recognized him from somewhere. They were both standing at the corner of a wall, unaware that someone's head was peeking out from behind it. Rowan felt a bit overwhelmed by the coincidence of encountering someone in such a hidden spot. However, she didn't want to get involved in Flora's personal matters, and she had no interest in them. Regardless of what Flora and the man were discussing in their hidden conversation, Rowan's main thought was to move out of their way. She pulled her head back, considering whether
The Billionaire's Housemaid Self blame
Rowan was lost in thought as she nibbled on the meat skewers, her mind far away from the delicious flavors. Across from her, Rolland grew impatient and grabbed a chicken wing, shoving it into his mouth."I brought you here to enjoy good food, not to space out!" he scolded.Rowan awkwardly smiled, taking the chicken wing out of her mouth and responding slowly, "I'm sorry. I'm just a bit distracted."Rolland looked curious, "You've been distant since we met. If you're not feeling well, we can head back.""I'm okay. Let's finish eating and then go back," Rowan reassured.Rolland had been wanting to share this barbecue spot with Rowan ever since she quit her job. Today, he finally got his wish. Rowan was determined to enjoy the meal before heading home.It's just that sometimes, letting your mind wander isn't easy to control.As she neared the end of her chicken wings, she suddenly glanced up at Rolland."I bumped into Flora earlier, near the little gate where we first met," she said.Rol
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 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
