Zaneska's voice could be heard all the way through the mansion. Because she saw the look of her expensive large jars on display in her living room that were broken. She seemed to be in a trance when she entered her house, with the three broken jars scattered on the floor.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAIliuKLRC99
"All of you come here to the living room! Who did it? Do you have any idea how much that is? It costs more than your life!" I exclaimed loudly.
144Please respect copyright.PENANARausq7DbQ2
My ten assistants all bowed in front of me. Others are still shaking in fear. Because they can see how irritated I am.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAfEGOznTFM9
Later, one of Lucianna approached me with a bow.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAqqQN4p7gty
144Please respect copyright.PENANAzPyVsWvFic
144Please respect copyright.PENANAaToEzNA8Yz
"I apologize, ma'am; my son arrived earlier, and he was playing in the living room, and his hand just happened to land on the jars," she explains.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAMqY3xF4Jxt
144Please respect copyright.PENANAnzTJJ4LL6R
144Please respect copyright.PENANAjx8e6Qk769
My hair suddenly stood on end.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAxN8skPsHwp
144Please respect copyright.PENANAtyVT7IcCZ9
144Please respect copyright.PENANAJ65jGUhW3q
"Luciana, my house is not a playground; I told you both just before you came in as my staff that you should take care of the things inside the house," I said, one hand on my brow and the other on my hips.
144Please respect copyright.PENANADeKnRTTHT3
She was trembling in fear of what I was about to do to her, I noticed.
144Please respect copyright.PENANALO3trwmHK2
"All right, please put that broken jar in the trash can, because the next time something breaks in this house, I'm not going to forgive you," I explained to each of them separately.
144Please respect copyright.PENANARchnrL9304
144Please respect copyright.PENANA5D33DU9uHX
They nodded and walked away from Luciana, leaving her to shed glass. After that, I went to my room and sat on my bed. After a while, my phone rang. I picked up the phone because it was my assistant, Randolf, who was calling.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAIhmx1xbV5G
144Please respect copyright.PENANAl3OIHPedJw
144Please respect copyright.PENANAE9DfORqJ1S
"What exactly is it?" I asked him.
144Please respect copyright.PENANALlUubxPtF4
144Please respect copyright.PENANAv2SkGJXSjQ
"Miss Zaneska, all of our investors have pulled their investments in us," he said over the phone, trembling.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAkkDtTvuR9o
144Please respect copyright.PENANAOmH7eFrNuQ
My brow furrowed in response to what I heard.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAsvxrKt0ZxJ
144Please respect copyright.PENANAA4mP4IWWHV
"What's the reason, Randolf?" I asked.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAnYlVhrsIJW
"I'm not certain, Miss," he admits.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAIpcYthI88o
144Please respect copyright.PENANA3VVUssw7KR
"Fix it right away," I said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA5jSZYI6HIH
"I tried to fix it, but they need to talk to you," he says on the other end of the phone.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAguF7T8gzsL
"And why is that? You're my assistant, so you have the authority to solve the problem."
144Please respect copyright.PENANAtGhGwcVP3d
144Please respect copyright.PENANAqrDePyEzfS
"I've done everything I can, but they still refuse. Mr. Chin is even worse," he complains.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAOpskVyRMlt
144Please respect copyright.PENANADAHXLIP9Vg
Mr. Chin is a Chinese investor who lives in China. We fixed the investment, but why was he yanked? Is he lying to me? I sat down on the bed, my phone still in my ear.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAtksUXLPaHS
144Please respect copyright.PENANARCtEW1wWGi
"Randolf, take a deep breath. I've heard your nervousness all the way up here," I said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAUS0sGl886O
144Please respect copyright.PENANA9RD4BGu1IO
"I was suddenly afraid that you would chastise me for withdrawing their investments," he said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAvZ6bfRqzAI
Because of what he said, I rolled my eyes.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAXDMQaKS9LH
"Aren't you used to my routine? How long have you worked with me?" I asked.
144Please respect copyright.PENANADQeX6mO9LO
I could hear his heavy breathing on the other end of the line.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAF5KPoTcaVs
"All right, call them and set up a meeting," I said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAsw3VK00erl
144Please respect copyright.PENANA9H6AWDe61y
"OK, Miss," he said as he hung up the phone.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAp1vMuXCh04
144Please respect copyright.PENANAIc4T1KqIPX
I put the phone down on the table, undressed, and went into the bathroom to take a shower; I'm leaving now; it's about seven o'clock in the evening.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA6SSrNCD5ch
I had a flashback to Mitch. She didn't even call out to say hello. Their house is in the province, and I haven't seen her in a long time. I'm too preoccupied with my life. As a result, I sometimes neglect myself.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAaWqigbxZCs
144Please respect copyright.PENANAzRdRxcBkzy
So I decided to get out of the house and go to the city to relax. I couldn't even give my housemates free time anymore. I know they need a break as well because they work hard here at the mansion. I also provided them with excellent benefits and pay.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA0iq3NFiB1n
I have no issues with them because they are both courteous and dependable at work. They are both unmarried. Luciana is the only one had a child without a husband.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA1BXRK6dxHS
I emerged from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my entire body.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAavV8GoyAMW
I looked for clothes that I could wear later in the day in the city.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA26xcR9qMyC
I took my ripped jeans and binge-colored crop top. I put on light make-up and wore it. I went down the stairs before I was satisfied with my appearance. First, I went to the kitchen to take a look. And I noticed some foods that had been prepared on the table. I slice a piece of cake and ate it.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAFOyEmzcFTz
When Luciana entered the kitchen, I was drinking water.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAVUCcVWUuis
"Please call them all, Luciana, and let us eat together," I said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAGCxy2ldLWa
She stopped as a result of what I said. Maybe she is taken aback because I had just said that we would all share a meal. They all entered the kitchen a minute later, while I was already sitting in a chair.
144Please respect copyright.PENANACTgu3CLDY8
"All of you sit down and eat," I order.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA9cxfeANd6a
They took their seats one by one and began to eat.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAhVLEQ8D10I
144Please respect copyright.PENANAj8x1JIw1CQ
"Maybe you'd like to accompany me to the city to unwind," I suggested.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA63YazBqJRS
144Please respect copyright.PENANABj2oz9uO10
They all turned to look at me at the same time.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAL7ULeSmBbj
"All right, Miss, we'd like to try going out at night as well," Mila said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAUug6ja0RIw
144Please respect copyright.PENANADB26phIQnv
I cracked a grin.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAAGmTyjZ2KW
"OK, get dressed, and I'll meet you all outside the house," I said.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAl8UhQQ10c8
144Please respect copyright.PENANAQeOa9MVjWZ
144Please respect copyright.PENANA53HDBWGRGV
I stood up and walked out of the kitchen. I called Randolf while I was out of the house. I called three times, but he never returned my calls. He called just as I was about to hang up the phone.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAtWpRRPNum4
144Please respect copyright.PENANA44t81cT88p
144Please respect copyright.PENANAgHw6WKftqf
"Hello, Randolf, how are you?" I asked.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA5821oMcm0y
144Please respect copyright.PENANAkxJQCTnR0Y
"At home, Miss," he replied with a heavy breathing.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAjkqIfST7Go
144Please respect copyright.PENANALmE3cyMQii
It's as if he's been running for a long period.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAPLeIMb4gb1
I thought I blushed when I realized what Randolf was doing. I quickly hung up the phone and pressed the power button. Shit! I was suddenly embarrassed about what I had done. Why did I dial his number? When I realized he'd done something shady.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA1QCflBL28M
Randolf has a girlfriend who lives in the same house as him. Their relationship has been going on for four years, as far as I know. It's a good thing I never found out about his girlfriend's jealousy. Better in a relationship where there is mutual trust. I suddenly wondered, Why didn't I have a relationship? Is there something wrong with me? Is my appearance unattractive? Is there nothing unique about me? But I didn't feel insecure in the good relationships of others. I've reached this age, but the man hasn't come for me yet. I've been waiting outside the mansion, but the girls who were with me in the house have yet to come out.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAjdCyjj7huM
144Please respect copyright.PENANAZdhvFeLKTN
I also noticed that they were pushing up against the gate.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAcciiyD8Vu5
"Hurry up, it's too late," I told them.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA6m7rfRllrA
As a result, they moved closer to me. I held a big car to accommodate all of us. I was able to smell their perfumes. Why do they appear to be drenched in perfume? My head shook. They weren't overjoyed at the prospect of coming out. Because I can see it on their faces, they are all wearing make-up. I started the car and drove away from my house.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA8qabX77FLG
144Please respect copyright.PENANAefI4SYDqmK
"You should all know how to drive because if it's like this, I'll have difficulty driving because you're all heavy," I joked.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAQkgw1pszWw
They were all cracking up. We've made it to town. I stopped the car on the outskirts of the plaza. We were all getting into the car and driving away. The night is cool. My eyes darted all over the place. There are still businesses open, and couples sit in cement chairs holding hands. I furrowed my brow. I was obsessed with earning money.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAqzAllnhlaN
144Please respect copyright.PENANA0eEr170ukh
I had no idea there was a place like this in the city. In the center of the plaza, there is a fountain. There were kids running around and groups of girls and boys dancing. I turn to face my companions, who are already sitting in a shop selling stick-pierced foods. I could see the joy on their faces. They're all nine, but I'll never forget what they're called. They brought light into my life. I was relieved that there were some people who stuck by me. That means I have a good attitude.

I was staring at them when someone grabbed my hand. When I looked at it, I noticed that the girl was unkempt. Her two hands are extended to me.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAhZAEkmYI16
"Can I have some money? I'm hungry," she said, holding her stomach.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA2LpoPKLiYH
I reached into my channel bag's money pocket and handed it to her.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA5gyPjANpnb
144Please respect copyright.PENANAhWRic53S0D
"The amount of money you gave," she said to me.
144Please respect copyright.PENANALaAZpKdwRR
144Please respect copyright.PENANAcHQqqzkds3
"How much does that cost?"
144Please respect copyright.PENANAsfQePolb0V
144Please respect copyright.PENANAuoCe1mDgaU
144Please respect copyright.PENANAyoX6GNcjb6
"It's a thousand, Ma'am," the child said replied.
144Please respect copyright.PENANANsoiRe57wD
144Please respect copyright.PENANAfpnaps0fqo
144Please respect copyright.PENANAOJU0faYvB7
I smiled as she said it.
144Please respect copyright.PENANAbTnjAVaoep
"How do you know?" I asked.
144Please respect copyright.PENANA726GP5ZjUS
144Please respect copyright.PENANAyyt9YuKLDO
"I'm just dirty, but I know how to count money." She explained.
144Please respect copyright.PENANApD9Mv825ZE
I smiled. I appear to want to talk to this kid.
