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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAPkCyh1nZKa
"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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANALcM8FnQ3Ay
My ten assistants all bowed in front of me. Others are still shaking in fear. Because they can see how irritated I am.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAJcqw0eCino
Later, one of Lucianna approached me with a bow.

635Please respect copyright.PENANAMtEu7Iy9Z0
635Please respect copyright.PENANAWt5zycSkXH
"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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAzi5hBiHiYG
635Please respect copyright.PENANAXiMysVqMOO
635Please respect copyright.PENANAsOiVkFCCnH
My hair suddenly stood on end.

635Please respect copyright.PENANAqBrKctlilh
"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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANANjMFg2dsM0
She was trembling in fear of what I was about to do to her, I noticed.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAzWL5iYp0f7
"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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAKkW5DQ5HWA
635Please respect copyright.PENANAUGMgcq56Da
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANARwStB5WBpT
635Please respect copyright.PENANAqJZLBv273F
635Please respect copyright.PENANAh6WLOOzq4K
"What exactly is it?" I asked him.
635Please respect copyright.PENANANRe7LCzyDx
635Please respect copyright.PENANA5fXdNICzd8
"Miss Zaneska, all of our investors have pulled their investments in us," he said over the phone, trembling.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA0IQQtuQcsQ
635Please respect copyright.PENANArunYEu9Iig
My brow furrowed in response to what I heard.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAFjtLO9HxeA
635Please respect copyright.PENANAtavS2wjblw
"What's the reason, Randolf?" I asked.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA0NTSks1KlR
"I'm not certain, Miss," he admits.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA3McYer1RzS
635Please respect copyright.PENANAyoUXGoTQJW
"Fix it right away," I said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANACOmRc5r7AS
"I tried to fix it, but they need to talk to you," he says on the other end of the phone.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAaskydyJbNv
"And why is that? You're my assistant, so you have the authority to solve the problem."
635Please respect copyright.PENANAPIOszji0xs
635Please respect copyright.PENANAijdL71zbyj
"I've done everything I can, but they still refuse. Mr. Chin is even worse," he complains.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAx6C5eL2oWw
635Please respect copyright.PENANAeDUOPeriSx
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAcAJ7rwiC2K
635Please respect copyright.PENANAEbloqbvTMM
"Randolf, take a deep breath. I've heard your nervousness all the way up here," I said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAqtKee75BYY
635Please respect copyright.PENANAXWRSfnEIZ8
"I was suddenly afraid that you would chastise me for withdrawing their investments," he said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAL0wPM3m6Kw
Because of what he said, I rolled my eyes.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA3Hc1DY3J2f
"Aren't you used to my routine? How long have you worked with me?" I asked.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAH88QlMTYPG
I could hear his heavy breathing on the other end of the line.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAyXs5J6qiw0
"All right, call them and set up a meeting," I said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAMrJJVmzFWO
635Please respect copyright.PENANABKQ9jVIMKb
"OK, Miss," he said as he hung up the phone.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA7nXXJB1pZi
635Please respect copyright.PENANAZVvEpbql3T
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAwQTbHa4Jw0
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA5SEQj3y525
635Please respect copyright.PENANAtw9ySnqp6k
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAyeekheIBXQ
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAqJvFCCYVp3
I emerged from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my entire body.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAYHjd9hYYcj
I looked for clothes that I could wear later in the day in the city.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAxQgQFlhQWP
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAcucmLw992z
When Luciana entered the kitchen, I was drinking water.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAq7QbH8pBDB
"Please call them all, Luciana, and let us eat together," I said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAAYltb55P2e
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA5XPZON1lpI
"All of you sit down and eat," I order.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAW9jC7YUEQf
They took their seats one by one and began to eat.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAWK8lFTWMrp
635Please respect copyright.PENANAlH8UFxJYGg
"Maybe you'd like to accompany me to the city to unwind," I suggested.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAw5WLNJ9Y6g
635Please respect copyright.PENANAbsResv5cCj
They all turned to look at me at the same time.
635Please respect copyright.PENANANntOuzipUG
"All right, Miss, we'd like to try going out at night as well," Mila said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANACVHAEcAZpe
635Please respect copyright.PENANAGye2Y0AZRL
I cracked a grin.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAM3f9FjHQAk
"OK, get dressed, and I'll meet you all outside the house," I said.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAw2HPa9pUIi
635Please respect copyright.PENANAxkZTJyOMIC
635Please respect copyright.PENANA6pcDIQMyQe
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAsKJrc15b4r
635Please respect copyright.PENANASatKfJwlhw
635Please respect copyright.PENANAAMbMSY2lll
"Hello, Randolf, how are you?" I asked.
635Please respect copyright.PENANASVIJCxC5H1
635Please respect copyright.PENANAMmaOw6EoxQ
"At home, Miss," he replied with a heavy breathing.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA1GTFDLBSRE
635Please respect copyright.PENANAtP8loLaKD8
It's as if he's been running for a long period.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAT9NPidlCBG
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAJC5KUlKJvu
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAeemsBRtzv9
635Please respect copyright.PENANAWSrPwDyFeu
I also noticed that they were pushing up against the gate.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAC8D6Ta38UU
"Hurry up, it's too late," I told them.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA48DN85Fdc0
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAfkhi2Et57s
635Please respect copyright.PENANAFj69KCnKCf
"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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA5kozsQIexS
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA5hjTyw02Zv
635Please respect copyright.PENANAdPTwuhQLEE
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.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAIaHMo04Nrl
"Can I have some money? I'm hungry," she said, holding her stomach.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAuPXnoXsS8X
I reached into my channel bag's money pocket and handed it to her.
635Please respect copyright.PENANArxSB38GDUm
635Please respect copyright.PENANAIthKxkoymk
"The amount of money you gave," she said to me.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAITEJn3Roow
635Please respect copyright.PENANAdiYGa4XJuF
"How much does that cost?"
635Please respect copyright.PENANAPARBuSXseO
635Please respect copyright.PENANA6CnYRcv8mS
635Please respect copyright.PENANA7vKkfXjj3t
"It's a thousand, Ma'am," the child said replied.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAneH6FVHnEj
635Please respect copyright.PENANAH1pq1Qobku
635Please respect copyright.PENANAsPvOcZc6qZ
I smiled as she said it.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAnTLiwJV8rR
"How do you know?" I asked.
635Please respect copyright.PENANAINP7vMhe0u
635Please respect copyright.PENANAx4LzRyTLvB
"I'm just dirty, but I know how to count money." She explained.
635Please respect copyright.PENANA5ts3Yq2xDQ
I smiled. I appear to want to talk to this kid.
