Master Brian’s maid

She was tortured by him, Jane did not have any strength to resist anymore, she obediently let him hug her body in his lap. Jane hugged him lightly, thinking:

“I hate you, bastard. You’re just good at mistreating me. Alright, I’ll do whatever you want for the time being. When I have a chance, I will escape from here.”

Brian saw that Jane was more tired, he sent someone to take her back to her room and give her medicine. And when Jane returned to her room with an exhausted body, she quickly climbed into bed to rest, she looked at everything around with lifeless, tired eyes. It would be really good if she could sleep now to forget everything that had happened during the past few days, it was more horrible than she had ever imagined.

And will it happen again tomorrow? A heavy rock of helplessness was weighing heavily on her small heart. Jane doesn’t know what to do with her dark future but to be as submissive and obey the orders as the bad guy wants. And indeed it was just filled with a painful hurt, without the name of any happiness or joy.

At least for this moment, she was resting and didn’t have to take care of him at night. The servant who carried Jane to her room informed her of this. Did he also have pity on her poor body? She didn’t know and she didn’t want to think about him now. Jane needed sleep more than ever, and she suddenly fell asleep without warning.

At the same time, Mrs. Matida was injected with medicine and treated by Dr. Henry, her health was much better. Matida woke up and ate some porridge with the care of her servant Menka, a middle-aged woman, while Oswat and Arthur went out looking for Elise. Menka helped Matida out of the living room to relax, she kindly asked:

“Today the weather is very nice. Would you like to go out with me, madam?”

Matida smiled softly.

“Thanks, Menka, but I’m really not in the mood today. I just want to sit here and have tea and rest.”

Menka heard her master say that and nodded obediently in response, she saw that the flowers in the living room had long withered, so she ordered Lexi to replace them when she saw her idle, stealthy. talking on the phone with her boyfriend downstairs in the kitchen.

Lexi is clumsy, clumsy and also likes to take care of small things, some people consider her narrow-minded and mean because of that. She was reminded by Mrs. Menka, Lexi had a resentful attitude and left, she went out to the garden to quickly pick the flowers that Mr. Arthur had planted and brought them inside the house, then she placed them superficially in the flowerpots.

And while arranging and re-displaying them on the shelves and reading table, Lexi carelessly dropped a photograph on the floor, a loud noise caught Matida’s attention and asked:

“Lexi, did you drop something again?”

Lexi is afraid to cover up:

“No, everything is fine. Never mind, lady.”

Matida knows Lexi’s personality is inherently clumsy, she doesn’t believe her words. So Matida hurriedly got up and walked quickly to Lexi’s place. When she got there, she saw a picture of Mr. Winson, her husband lying on the ground broken apart. She changed her expression, solemnly crossed her arms and asked:

“You still want to deny it?”

Lexi chirped, bowed her head and replied:

“Sorry ma’am, I didn’t mean to.”

No matter how many times Matida reminds Lexi of that, she still suffers from it, still can’t fix her clumsy personality. So because she was used to it, she only reminded Lexi a few sentences:

“Okay, everything is lost, you quickly get your things to clean this place up. Next time be more careful.”

Lexi nodded apologetically and retreated to the kitchen to get supplies for a quick cleanup while Matida sighed in frustration, bent down to pick up a broken picture of Mr. Winston.

The beloved husband she always longed for every night, he left her to go to God when she did not have any preparation. She blamed him badly for leaving her here alone, with the pain and agony of searching for her little daughter who had been missing for decades. She was ten years older than him while he was still the same, still young at that age. He is still elegant in a luxurious suit with a bright smile on his lips in the picture, the day he achieved his first success in his career, the day his company was founded, share the joy with his friends.

In that moment, she discovered an object hidden cleverly behind the photo. It was a yellow letter from a long time ago, Matida was very surprised and surprised by that. Could it be a letter left by her husband? She immediately opened it with joy, but something she didn’t expect. Turns out it wasn’t, it wasn’t exactly what she had thought. It was a letter from her old best friend, Lady Chantal, the Lawrence’s daughter-in-law and Brian’s mother.

Why is Chantal? What is the relationship between her and Winston? Why didn’t I know about it and Winston never told me anything about it?. How many questions Matida asked herself. She wanted to know the reason, so she quickly opened the letter and read:

“Dear Winston…

Do you still remember the taste of the strawberry cake that you made for me on a cold winter day? When the two fell in love during a previous high school dance. My heart fluttered before you in that moment when our eyes were accidentally meet each other. And your fleeting awkward kiss when you and I hid together in the library looking for books for essays. To the bright sunny days, when we camp together on the romantic Rassabi hill. I fell asleep in your arms when you read me a long story in a novel. Those memories are so beautiful but it just stops there, can not continue. That’s when I was arranged by my family to meet Aiden, the powerful man of the Lawrence mansion, the man that many girls crave and wish to have. I met him, who I never loved because my heart was already devoted to you.

But it was only a temporary excuse because more than anyone else I lied to myself, I really don’t love you much but I thought because when you proposed to me, I gently refused and said I didn’t ready to marry someone. And then when I met Aiden, I admitted that I myself need wealth and power, they are like a precious jewelry and a necessary measure that many girls desire in this society.

I am really a bad and selfish woman, I gave you false hope in love before but you still don’t hate or blame me. Winston is really a noble man, I am very grateful for that, the kindness and sincere affection you give me. But Winston, you know what? I’m really lonely in my marriage to Aiden, he doesn’t understand me as well as you, Aiden is a hot-tempered and imposing man, I can’t stand his temper when I and Aiden argue together. At times like these, I miss my Winston even more, I crave your warm care for Matida, you current wife, when I see it at the round birthday party one year old of Brian, my second son.

I really envy the way you look at Matida, a love and respect that is rarely found in Aiden. I know I have no right to beg you to come back to me because I have hurt you so much. But it was really hard, I have to confess to you the fact that every night when I coax Brian to put my baby to sleep, I miss you even more. The feeling in the past that Winston cared for and spoiled me, held me tightly in that embrace, how warm and peaceful it was. When Aiden couldn’t have it, he just wanted to possess me and ignore my fluctuating emotions, just to bury his head in his work.

The distance between him and me is getting farther and farther, I don’t know how to save it. He still loves me but I still don’t feel it’s enough. Am I too greedy a woman? I don’t, I just want to return to the beautiful memories of you and me. Can I suggest you a request? I want to change into Matida’s place right now, I miss you so much. Can I meet you once at the old rendezvous place? Can we chat together as close friends? I will go to the meeting place and wait for you. Please, give me the answer.

Sending a thousand kisses to you, Winston…”

As soon as Mrs. Matida finished reading the letter, her body trembled with anger, a terrible pressure pressed on her chest and caused her great pain. She cried like she had never cried before, a betrayal and deception from Chantal and Winston’s true selves made her angry and burst into tears. She clutched the letter tightly in her hand and intended to tear them to shreds, but then she suddenly thought of something. Matida tried to hold back and control her anger, she took a deep breath to calm herself and folded the letter neatly into the pocket of her dress. She rushed into the room, slammed the door shut and cried bitterly, she cried as she took the letter out and looked at it again:

“Why is that, Winston? Why didn’t you say a word to me? Did you ever love her? Why didn’t you tell me anything? Let me be foolish enough to trust you unconditionally. And she, the shameless woman, the best friend I ever had, stabs me in the back, every night longing for my man. Even though she lived in luxury, married to a rich husband. Chantal, I didn’t expect that one day you would treat me like this. So it’s just me, stupidly trusting you so much.”

Matida sobbed, clutching the letter. She must become stronger, she must send this letter to Mr. Wibul so that he can see how bad his daughter-in-law’s face is, when Wibul wholeheartedly praises how talented Chantal is?

But wait a minute, something is not right here. Matida suddenly remembered something, she immediately ran to her desk, opened a drawer full of documents in it and opened a thick envelope. It turned out to be the investigation file of Mr. Winston’s death. Matida quickly flipped through, she hurried to the middle of the file to find what she wanted to know.

It is this case that has been closed since the year that Elise went missing when the police tracked down, found the culprit was Arlo in a deserted house in the suburbs, only he committed suicide with a gun, pin a bullet through the head. The man at the tavern took his own life, but Derek, who set fire to Matida’s house and caused Elise’s disappearance, escaped from prison a week later when he gave a man’s name, the other is Wade, who directed him to do it and promised to give him the money when Derek finished the job.

And Wade also disappeared soon after, she heard from Arthur – her current husband that Wade is a close subordinate of Aiden – Brian’s father. But she skipped over that detail and quickly ignored it, partly because Aiden and Chantal’s funeral had just been completed, and she didn’t want the investigation to go any further because it didn’t have any relevance.

Unexpectedly, things are different now, between Chantal and Winston there is a connection that Matida did not know before. Is it possible that Wade – Aiden’s subordinate secretly obeyed Aiden’s request to handle her husband. Because when Aiden found out that his wife cheated and secretly met another man, did he get angry? With Matida, it was possible because Aiden was a hot-tempered, scowling and blindly jealous man.

So from this moment, she will ask Arthur to turn this case over again, she will investigate the real motive of Wade who is behind who and why he carried out that plan? Matida wanted to confirm that thoroughly and precisely. She overlooked many important things in the investigation of her husband’s death all this time. Because that time was the time when she was sad the most, no longer having the sanity and mind to think about other things, the strength to get up because Matida went through two pains at the same time, dear husband had just passed away, and her little daughter was missing.

Matida was impatient, she immediately picked up the phone and called Arthur’s number to inquire about the search for Elise and wanted him to return home urgently because she wanted to ask him to turn over the case, investigate and find someone, who named Wade, Aiden’s subordinate, Chantal’s husband, best friend betrayed and cheated on her.

Mr. Arthur was standing on the side of the road looking for information about Elise, he received her call and immediately returned home. He called Oswat back with him. While driving back home, Arthur was still surprised, he was in a state of ecstasy. Because he was absorbed in thinking about something, or he himself did not pay attention to the details of Wade, Aiden’s subordinate, since he is busy helping Matida to help arrange Winston’s funeral and search for his daughter Elise, perhaps he is just like Matida, silly enough to forget to investigate to the bottom of this case.

That made Arthur not focus on driving, he slipped the steering wheel when there was another car speeding in the opposite direction, the collision made Arthur and Oswat temporarily unconscious in the car along with severe scratches on the body, accompanied by broken glass pieces scattered on the road.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

All vehicles and pedestrians poured into the car accident that just happened, they looked at the two seriously injured men in the car with afraid eyes, both curious and observing. Some people called the police to come and some people helped a little and then quietly left immediately. Only the sound of car horns giving way remained behind, the sound of the engines of the cars continuing to move on the road.

And they don’t know that the sound of the accident just now includes the sound of two cars hitting each other, the loud rubbing and breaking of glass just like the sounds a young girl lives on the fishing village have heard and seen. Only strange thing is that it is more painful.
