"Saffron, I asked you a question. What happened to your dress?" Atlas asked again like he cared. Why was he calling her name like they were pals? How did he even know her name? This was the first time in seven years that they talked. Atlas isn't one to care about mere workers in the mansion, let alone commit their names to memory. So why her? Ignoring Atlas was not an option, so she parted her lips. "I–" Saffron was about to lie her way through when she caught sight of Caspian walking over. "Talk to me! Did Caspian do this to you?!" Atlas frowned and grabbed her jaw, forcing her to look his way. "How did–" so this was it? Atlas orchestrated last night's incident? He set her up! Now Caspian would think she was involved with Atlas! There's no way for her to prove her innocence anymore... "Ahh!" Saffron cried out loud and moved back with her rear hitting the wall. She slid down slowly until she was sitting on the floor, bawling her eyes out. "I'm just an insignificant Chef who is only here to work, please I beg you, let me live… waaah… I want to live…!" She continued crying as she lamented sorrowfully like she was already having her last minute of life. Caspian walked past without acknowledging any of them with a mere glance. After he ambled out of the corridor, Atlas moved away and glared condescendingly at Saffron, "Don't think too highly of yourself. You've served your purpose. You were a mere pawn." ... Saffron, a Chef who wanted nothing but a simple life, ended up becoming a pawn in a life and death's game for three brothers. However, time will tell if she's a pawn, or the Queen on the chess board.

Another amazing story from Hassy. The scheming starts as early as the first chapter and it takes you on an emotional rollercoaster for the rest of the chapters

Author's review here... Saffron is not a weak lady. For the first few chapters, she's confused and has no better choice as trouble upon trouble overwhelm her. Her world, view, and motivation will change before chapter 20, so please, bear with her and be patient. Thank you!

The condition

Ten minutes passed and Saffron asked permission to return to her quarters. It was already late into the night and she was starting to feel lazy. She assumed it was her body calling her to go to bed. The subordinate didn’t speak but stepped out of the way for her to leave. However, just when she was about to walk past him, Saffron began to feel weird. She clutched her chest as she felt her heartbeat accelerating. Her organs were burning and her head was starting to become heavy. “What is wrong with me? Please, help me! I feel... hot! My inside is burning up!” Gerald watched her without a word as she started to tear at her own uniform while screaming for help without offering her one. Instead, he locked them inside the room. Saffron’s throat started to turn dry as her gaze turned blurry. Before she knew what was happening, she swayed and fell toward the subordinate, but he stepped aside and let her body fall like a sack of grain. Almost twenty minutes later, Caspian came out of the

Saffron, the Pawn

He knew she was stunned. He knew he was sending her on a suicide mission, but the unfeeling Caspian didn’t care. He ignored her and sauntered to the dressing table to get his hair dried. At the same time waited patiently for her reply. “F–First Young Master, I’m sorry I won’t dare to–“ He abruptly cut her off with the words; “You wouldn’t dare to offend them but you didn’t think twice to offend me?” How was she supposed to tell him that she didn’t understand how it happened? Who would believe her part of the story?Staring at her reflection from the mirror, he commanded with a threatening tone, “You have a month to think about it and give me a positive answer, otherwise, I’ll give you hell, Saffron. Now, get out!” …Until Saffron left the room with her disheveled uniform, her mind couldn’t register what just happened. There were too many things for her brain to take in. What totally shut her mind from thinking was his proposed deal. How can she kill the sons of Mr. Clinton? Not o

Saffron, the trouble magnet

The next day, Saffron tendered her resignation letter to the butler who found it irresponsible of her to quit at this time. “I was just about to come look for you after this. Young Miss Talia brought up your promotion issues at the dining with the rest of the family. The Clintons are pleased with your service, so you’ve been promoted to a Senior Chef with your salary doubled.”Saffron clutched the white envelope containing her resignation letter tightly. Promotion... Doubled salary! Before today, they were what she needed the most. She overworked herself for seven years to get a promotion. But what good are those things with her recent condition? If she decides to stay, it could be the end of her life!She smiled faintly and slowly stretched out the white envelope. “I’m sorry, Mr. Charles, my resignation is not coined from lack of promotion. I just–“ “Before I forget, Third Master Sebastian wants you at the green house by 8:30 tonight. You can tell him then that you want to resign.

Fired!

All through the night, Saffron couldn’t wrap her head around what happened some hours ago. She heard a few shutter sounds and flashes. From her knowledge, she understood it was a camera shot, but why would Sebastian take photos of them kissing? What is he trying to do? He said he doesn’t love her and was only using her to get involved in his brothers’ fight. Was it necessary to get her involved? Haven’t they been fighting each other even before she came into the mansion? Did they have to make her life miserable? Mr. Charles wouldn’t accept her resignation letter and she desperately wants to leave as soon as possible before Caspian returns from his business trip. Otherwise, who knows how she’d die? Running away doesn’t seem plausible as they might accuse her of stealing valuables. If they arrest her, she’d spend the rest of her days in prison, and her child, what would happen to it? All odds seemed to be against Saffron as nothing she thought of would work out in her favor. Saffron

Returning to the Grahams

Graham town was three days journey from South City by road. No one wants to go on a tiresome journey like that, but Saffron is on budget, taking a flight would ruin her plans. At the same time, Graham town has no airport to begin with.The serenity in the train scared Saffron. It was too peaceful and quiet for her situation. Although she loved atmospheres like this in the past, but recently, she preferred the noises and ruckus. It made her feel safe, knowing that there were people around her. All that had happened in the Clinton’s household had driven Saffron into the stage of constant fear and a need to be at alert. She left the Clintons when the children weren’t around. If they wanted to find her, they won’t break a sweat to achieve that. She sighed for the umpteenth time as she rested her head on the window. “Not like the Grahams are any better,” she sighed again and slowly closed her eyes, probably for some sleep– it was the third day anyway and she hasn’t been able to lully her

Alex

The quarters for the orphans, called ‘Safe Haven’ was the opposite of the Grahams’ beautiful mansion. Although the orphanage was very large and contained around 10,000–12,000 children from different places around the world, it was poorly built with wood in the far end of the estate. The Grahams knew that couples who wanted to adopt children would grow mad if they knew of the poor environment the children were being brought up, despite the donations and contributions from people around the world, they came up with a strategy to build a better place, where couples could meet up with a few selected children to be adopted; according to the couples’ preference. That was why the government, private organizations, and individuals around the world who make donations to the orphanage haven’t been able to discover anything amiss. Saffron arrived at one of the wooden hostels and gently knocked on the door. After a few knocks, nobody answered the door, so she pushed the wooden door open and ent

A way out?

For the next few days, Saffron had nothing better to do other than to be at the field, planting. It’s been five days since she returned to the orphanage and Madam Graham didn’t ask for her like she thought. Everywhere seemed too peaceful to the extent Saffron almost believed that Madam Graham might have forgotten about her, because, in the past, no day went by without the Matrons yelling abusive words at her with the permission from the Madam.It would be nice if they truly forgot about her existence, that way she could peacefully take care of her pregnancy. While she was brooding, Alex came hurrying over.“Sister Saffy!” Saffron paused and looked in his direction, then sighed with worry. “I told you to stop running around. It’s still too early for you to be out. You aren’t even wearing enough to cover your chest. What if you catch a cold?”Alex had been running for a while and now, he was having a hard time catching his breath. “I – sister, grandma is at Safe… Safe Haven.” Saffron

Better be fertile

After the two women stated what they wanted, Saffron took a deep breath. They aren’t the only ones with evil intentions anyway. Since they aren’t giving her any choices, they can’t blame her for giving them another man’s child. After all, once she gives birth to this child, she’d make sure not to have another. Once she had concluded what she wanted to do in her mind, she said, “Marrying your crippled son came with a mouth-watering benefit that I cannot reject…”The two old women smiled broadly. However, before they could wallow in their happiness, Saffron continued.“...however, I cannot just accept the offer, unless I see him, talk to him and I’m sure he’s also willing to be with me.” Saffron didn’t ask for too much. It was quite reasonable, but Madam Graham and her friend didn’t find it cute at all. “What do you mean by that, Saffron? Are you doubting my words?” Madam Evelyn frowned with displeasure. “Absolutely not, Madam Evelyn! I was–”“Saffron! Have you lost your mind? My frie

Curiosity

Madam Evelyn’s mansion was opulent; the Graham’s Mansion can’t hold a candle to it. “My daughter-in-law, please, have a seat and do feel at home. Marrin, get your new madam a glass of water. Have the other servants prepare her brother’s room. As for my daughter-in-law, she’ll stay in her husband’s room, but for now, prepare a guest room for her,” the old woman smiled while dishing out orders. Saffron just stood by the entrance to the massive living room without uttering a word. When the servant came over to send them to their rooms, Alex refused to leave until Saffron encouraged him to.After Alex left, Saffron finally turned to her would-be mother-in-law. “Ma, can I see your son now?”The old woman’s face suddenly changed, but in the next second, her lips stretched into a forced smile, “I thought we already talked about this? Why are you bringing it back up?”“Nothing ma, I’m just too excited to see my husband….” Seeing the old woman was starting to give her a strange attitude, she
