In the evening, Alex arrived home with Derrick and Juliet. Alex had not been himself after seeing the little boy, Jayden that resembles him. Getting out of the car, Alex entered the living room with Derrick and they saw Lady Loretta in the living room with Celine. "Mom!" Alex felt all the blood in him drained out on seeing his mother, Celine. Miranda with the rest of the maids were on duty attending to Alex's mother, Celine Jackson, as she wore a crimson gown and looked back at her son. "Is that the right way to welcome your mother?" Celine asked, and Alex frowned. His day had been completely ruined after seeing his son, and Derrick didn't waste time in snapping the little boy photo and sending it to Alex's mother. They agreed on the phone call conversation that Alex must marry Juliet whether he likes her or not, and also, Derrick had to render an apology to Juliet's family on behalf of their absence in Jayden's life. Miranda looked at Juliet's face and she saw the joy imprinte

Miranda was in her room, searching her wardrobe for the clothes that she would buy as it was already month-end. She had received her monthly payment, and she gathered all her boxes out, thinking to discard some of her old clothes.As Miranda was living inside the mansion, she doesn't usually go outside of the gate to go for her shopping or to hang out anywhere. She thought about Alex's proposal for them to go to the cinema, but seeing he was with Juliet, Miranda knew that Alex wouldn't have time for her.It was already late night, and she had jotted down all the clothes that she would purchase at any shopping vendor close by, as she didn't want to wander off or get lost.Miranda would have preferred to do her shopping online, but knowing that clothes come in various sizes and she had seen some folks who had received some different items from what they had ordered online. She decided to go out for her shopping the following day.Staring back at her room clock, just as she shut her ward

Derrick went back upstairs to his bedroom murmuring, "Why must I be the one to accompany that maid to the hospital? My mom just wants to force her closer to me, tch."Derrick wasn't stupid as he wondered why his mother wanted him in particular to accompany the maid when he had staff who ran on errands for him.He quickly went to have his bath. After he was through, he stepped out and wore a casual red shirt and black trousers paired with black shoes, since he wasn't going out of the mansion again. Nor were they expecting any visitor.As he was through dressing up, Derrick grabbed his phone and went downstairs as he wasn't the one driving. He had a chauffeur who drives him around at any time that he likes. Derrick also knew how to drive, but he prefers his driver to take him around.As he alighted the stairs, he saw the pretty maid was ready and she was wearing a blue long dress compared to the casual clothing that she wore that morning.As Miranda wanted to go for her shopping, she de

"How much did you spend on your shopping?" Derrick asked Miranda just as she settled in the rear of the car beside him."I don't know, but the cashier gave me a receipt," Miranda said as she sat up to look at the receipt in her hand. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw the written amount.*5 million bucks. Was that why the cashier was looking at me like that?* Miranda wondered. She quickly looked at Derrick, apologizing to him. "I'm sorry, sir. I didn't know the outfit cost so much. I only selected the ones I liked.""Hmm," Derrick tensed, listening to Miranda's voice."There's no way to return the purchased items. Next time, you should be mindful of your shopping. You don't earn that much in a month," Derrick said, as he knew the maids earned mostly a hundred bucks monthly. So Miranda spending 5 million was too much.Miranda smiled and replied, "I will keep that in mind."Looking away from the pretty girl sitting beside him, Derrick ordered Josh, "Start the car. We're through and

A week had passed and another Saturday arrived in the Luis mansion. Miranda was in her room, getting ready to prepare herself as she thought about cleaning up the house. It was morning, and though Lady Loretta didn't send her on many errands, Miranda had observed that after Lady Loretta thought she was sick, the older woman limited sending her on errands.After taking her bath, Miranda decided to wear one of her new dresses, as she hadn't worn it since the week. She thought to wear it during weekends and when she thinks there may be guests visiting the Luis home. Also, on weekends, Lady Loretta usually gives the maids different turns to take a break and leave the mansion if they want.Miranda's phone had been ruined, so she was not able to call Agent Paul. As she finished bathing in her room, she picked up the red dress from her wardrobe and prepared to wear it.Miranda creamed her body with her lemon-fresh cream. She stood in front of her room mirror, examining her looks as the time
