Master Brian’s maid

As Mr. Wibul warned, the next day in the mansion a special guest arrived. That person was none other than Henry, Wibul’s nephew and Brian’s cousin.

That morning, after Brian had breakfast brought up by Jane, he went for a walk around the garden to help his leg heal faster. And like every time before, after practice, he would return to his room to rest, change clothes, have tea and read a book. But today, a guest Brian did not expect came to this mansion, so Brian did not have any preparation to receive him.

While Brian was reading a book, the butler Allen took Henry to his room, much to Jane and Brian’s surprise. Butler Allen signaled Jane to leave, when she saw Brian unresponsive, she obeyed Allen.

Brian watched Henry enter his room in confusion, while Henry appeared quite leisurely, sitting down on the sofa and sipping tea in hand. Brian curiously asked:

“Why did you come here?”

Henry smiled and replied.

“Perhaps I want to visit my cousin.”

Brian laughed, he sat there watching Henry while he was drinking tea. Henry suddenly asked:

“How are you, Brian? I haven’t seen you in a long time.”

Brian nonchalantly replied:

“Yes, everything is the same, life in the mansion is boring. It’s just that my leg has gradually recovered, which can also be seen as good news.”

Henry nodded in agreement as he watched Brian’s bright face. He suddenly said:

“I heard Mr. Wibul about the accident that happened to you, I’m sorry, but fortunately your injury shows signs of rapid recovery.”

Brian calmly, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip and asked:

“Yes thanks. And don’t go round about it Henry, that’s not your style.”

Henry shrugged, he gave a friendly smile and replied:

“Yes. I think you’ve already guessed why I’m here.”

Brian hummed:

“Perhaps, I think Mr. Wibul asked you to come to me for some purpose.”

Henry slowly said:

“The truth is that I came to heal you. Mr. Wibul said you should control your behavior through psychotherapy.”

“Hey, I’m completely normal, I don’t have mental illnesses, only he is sick. It’s crazy to invite you here to treat me.”

“At first, when I heard about this request, I was also a bit confused, but since Mr. Wibul has helped me a lot, so I want to thank him.”

“But he didn’t understand, he just wanted to find a reason to punish and control me. Your presence here is completely useless.”

“Why not? I’ll be here to treat you.”

“No need, you should go back to your own house.”

“If I go home, you will be threatened by Mr. Wibul’s guards, don’t you feel trapped?”

“Yes, it happened in the past, it drove me crazy.”

“So you shouldn’t let it happen again now, you know it sucks, right?”

Brian looked at Henry and laughed, he asked again:

“So what do you think I should do now?”

“Do it my way, everything will be fine.”

Brian was a little curious, he waited for Henry to continue:

“I can understand your behavior, I saw your servant when I first walked in here. She is very beautiful. And I already see your problem. I have an offer for you.”

“What is it?”

“I am testing a euphoric drug for a human who will do anything you ask. But unfortunately it is not finished yet. Would you like to try it?”

Brian happily says:

“That’s interesting. So what will I do to get it?”

“You really understand me, Brian. But first, you should be obedient, play the role of a good grandson so that Mr. Wibul doesn’t watch over you closely.”

“Yeah, so you don’t have to come here to heal.”

“Why not? I’ll get your leg back to normal. Isn’t that the job of a doctor?”

“Okay, it’s fine.”

“Also, in order to make your play better, I had to separate you and your servant for a while.”

“Why? No, I disagree.”

“Listen, Brian, it’s only temporary. I know you will miss her but it only lasts for a short time. Mr. Wibul will have a long business trip next week as far as I know, then you don’t have to pretend anymore and I will return her to you. And your leg is about to recover, why don’t you use that time to practice to get your leg back to normal?”

Hearing that, Brian hummed and replied:

“Okay, then I’ll listen to you this time.”

“Very well, brother.”

And that afternoon, Brian had to let Jane follow Henry back to Villa Zikala at his request. Henry needs a servant to take care of his wife Wendy, Jane is very suitable for this job.

Meanwhile, Jane is also surprised that she can leave the Lawrence mansion to go somewhere else, so she will find a way to escape more easily, on the other hand, she feels happy and comfortable when she does not have to be seen Brian every day, she will be living for herself temporarily for a few days in Zikala.

But Brian also told Henry everything about Jane and asked him to watch her carefully. It was indeed a difficult decision for Brian when he let her out of his arms. Before she got into the car, Brian hugged Jane and said:

“I know you’re happy right now, but this is only temporary, you’ll be back here soon.”

Jane said nothing, she said to herself:

“Don’t expect me to come back here, I’ll find a way to escape if I can.”

Brian had to let go of Jane and stroked her hair gently, he kissed her lightly on the forehead, making Jane quite shy. She followed Henry’s servant and loaded her luggage into the car, not forgetting to wave goodbye to everyone.

Henry took Jane to Villa Zikala, this place in Jane’s eyes, it’s really not as big as Lawrence’s mansion but it’s also quite spacious and airy for a family to live in. Jane carried her luggage and entered under the guidance of Gula, a close servant of Henry. She said:

“Welcome to this place, Jane. I’m Gula, the butler here.”

“Nice to meet you.”

“I’ll take you to your room. And I will also briefly describe your temporary work here.”

“Yes madam.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“The young master’s wife is pregnant, you have a duty to take care of her. Serve her breakfast, make tea, take her for a walk, and follow her orders.”

“I’ll do it well.”

After Gula took Jane to her room to store her luggage, she took Jane to Wendy’s place. Jane since meeting Henry, she is also curious about what his wife looks like, because Dr. Henry is a rich, elegant and handsome man, she thinks his wife will also be very special.

And when Jane entered the room, she saw a pregnant girl sitting in an embroidered chair, a familiar figure looming as Jane drew closer. She suddenly exclaimed:

“Wendy? Is it you?”

Wendy was stunned to see the girl standing in front of her, this face, this white hair, unmistakably, the friend who had been with her in that room. Memories of the past came rushing back violently. Wendy widened her eyes and nodded to Jane, she quickly ran over and hugged Wendy with great joy:

“Thank god, you are okay. I thought I would never see you again.”

“Me too. You have successfully escaped from the traffickers and are here.”

The two girls hugged each other tightly and burst into tears, they confided and shared with each other everything that happened during the past time. Jane hears and feels surprised about Wendy, now that she has found her own happiness and become the wife of a doctor. As for Wendy, she sympathizes with Jane’s situation, when Jane has not yet found her freedom. Wendy looked at Jane and lamented:

“Our fate is pitiful. Always have to live under the pressure of others.”

“Have you ever regretted falling in love with Henry?”

“Once, because he was an asshole before, he always forced me. But now I love him, I have a baby with him. I have also gradually accepted him for who he is.”

Jane sees Wendy and looks at herself, she has a deep sympathy, but Wendy and her are different. Wendy was the wife of a doctor and Jane, she was just a servant, she really didn’t want to go back there, Jane had to find her own way out and way. Now that she was in this place, a place that wasn’t Lawrence’s mansion, it made her thought of escaping even more intense. So the more Jane wanted to do it, she thought for a moment and said:

“I didn’t like life at the mansion, so I always intended to run away. But when I come here, everything becomes a lot easier, can you help me escape from here? As I know, he will come here to pick me up, when conditions permit.”

“This is a bit difficult, because there are many guards here. I don’t know, I’ll try to help you.”

Jane happily replied:

“Thank.”

That night, after Jane was on duty as a maid to help Wendy wash up, she went back to her bedroom. Wendy used some hot tea in her room, she looked at Henry and said:

“Today, I’m glad to see Jane, the new servant you brought in, she’s my friend.”

“Really?”

“Yes, she is very good to me. Jane is like my little sister. And now Jane wants me to help her. Jane wants to leave the Lawrence mansion and move out. If she likes being with me that would be great, but maybe as she said, Jane prefers living outside.”

Henry heard that, and quickly interrupted:

“I know what you’re talking about, I made a deal with Brian, this is only temporary, and sooner or later Jane is Brian’s person, he’ll come pick her up. So we can’t help or help her escape. While we are still having problems, and most importantly, the safety of you and our son. Don’t mind other things.”

Wendy was disappointed, she looked at Henry’s serious face and said:

“I know, I just wanted to help her. Because I sympathize with Jane, she and I are in the same situation.”

Henry took Wendy’s hand, kissed it and said:

“Don’t think like that. You and Jane are different. I’ll help her with other things, except run away. And there’s nothing else we can do, okay?”

Wendy looked at Henry’s cold eyes looking at her, she remained silent, just nodded silently in agreement. Wendy knows how difficult it is to change this man’s decision, so she will think of a way to help Jane on her own.

During Jane’s stay at the Zikala mansion, Brian was at the Lawrence mansion performing Henry’s exercise exercises, which Henry asked him to do. Brian used his time and efforts to practice, his leg has completely recovered, he can now walk normally without a cane. And Brian is very happy about it, but he still wants his legs to be stronger, to be able to run and jump like normal so he works harder every day. Brian will soon return to school to complete his remaining subjects, because shortly after he will graduate and go to work at his grandfather’s company.

With each passing day when Jane was absent from the mansion, Brian missed Jane more and more, he couldn’t live without her, he grew more restless and uneasy in his heart. So to relieve everything, he played tennis and baseball, he wanted his mood to be comfortable, temporarily ease the longing for the girl he loved. Gideon and Felix went to the mansion to play tennis with Brian, they laughed:

“Hey, handsome guy. Don’t fight so hard, I’ve already lost a few matches.”

Felix added:

“Perhaps Brian is thinking of someone going crazy, but he can’t do anything about it, that’s why he’s focused on this match.”

Gideon patted Felix on the shoulder in approval, Brian ignored it and focused on playing tennis, he ended the match with the result of his victory.

Meanwhile, Jane was with Wendy, both sewing clothes together, Jane suddenly said:

“Being here with you is really fun. I also want a friend to talk to every day.”

“Then you stay here with me, don’t go anywhere.”

“I’m afraid I can’t, I still want to live the outside life. You too, Wendy.”
