I got home and met mom sitting in the living room, Waiting for me.
I took a deep breath and walked up to her, She quickly rush to me and I smiled.
” I’m fine, you don’t need to worry about me “I mumbled and she nodded.
” Fleur called, I heard your birthday didn’t go as planned? “She asked and I shook my head.
” It went as planned, My boss celebrated it for me and got me some stuffs, They are so expensive “I exaggerated and she laughed.
” I hope it’s not what I’m thinking?, What’s between you and your boss? “She asked suspiciously and I shrugged.
“Nothing, Just the staff-Boss relationship, Nothing more ”
” Waylen called “She said softly and my heart skipped a bit.
Waylen is my younger brother, He’s studying abroad and that’s the reasons why we have so much debts to pay.
And my Dad isn’t ready to help, I don’t even want to think about that monster.
I closed my eyes and hissed.
” You know he’s about to round up, He needs a huge amount of money to clear his rent fees, School fees and other important stuffs, I don’t know what to do anymore ”
” How much do you have in your account? “I asked softly and she sighed.
“Not up to $50 ”
“I rolled my eyes and sat on the couch.
” Maybe I should ask my boss then?, He’s a good person “I suggested and she turned to me quickly.
Maynard is a good person to me, I think he won’t hesitate to help as well.
” Really?, Maybe we should do that ” She replied and I nodded.

The Next Day…..
I got to the office Feeling so anxious, I’m asking him for money today, I hope he doesn’t turn me down.
I knocked on the door and he opened it himself for me, Just like he’s expecting me.
” Good morning sir “I bowed slightly and he nodded.
” How are you? “He asked taking off his suit and I dropped my bag to help him arrange his shirt.
I nodded and he scoffed.
” I’m fine, And thanks for yesterday, The diamond necklace and dresses “I mumbled and he nodded.
” You’re welcome “He patted my head and was about to walk away but I held his hand.
” I need your help “I blurted and he roll his eyes.
” What… ”
” I knee what you’ve done for me, And I acknowledged that, But I really need your help, By brother studying overseas called yesterday’s night and he needed some money, It’s not up to $500, And my salary is $550, I want an upfront payment, And I promise to work more than your expectations, Please “I begged and he nodded.
” You have the company details with you, Remove the money from one of the banks and send it to your brother, If you need more than the money you mentioned, Take it there ” He said gently and I gasped.
” You gave me already?, Thanks so much “I screamed and jumped on him immediately, He smiled and wrapped his hand around my back.
I pulled away immediately and smiled.
” Thanks so much, I really appreciate you sir, Thank you “I bowed repeatedly before leaving the room.

MAYNARD POV
I was in a bad mood until she arrived, My step mom has always been on my neck anytime I visit the main mansion, I preferred mine with less drama but I need to pick some documents in my Dad’s room.
I wish my mom was here with me.
Magnoila innocence and the way she talks always make me wonder maybe she’s pretending or that’s her character but that’s how she talks to her friend, Fleur as well.
Gosh!, I don’t want to have anything romantic to do with her because it won’t end well.
It won’t.
I took a deep breath and stared at the ceiling.
Sometimes, I wish I was born ordinarily, No problem or drama, I don’t like the way I am sorrounded with circumstances.
Gosh!
I turned on the TV since there’s nothing much to do, I did everything overnight.
Magnolia came afterwards with my coffee and the news broadcast started already.
She dropped it on the table and stood beside me, Watching the news keenly.
It was all about Silas from the Humphrey family, He fell in love with one of his Dad’s maid and his associate somehow learned about it, They stopped partnering with him because he chosed not to marry one of the investors.
He’s now on the TV crying and the girl could be seen beside him, Feeling guilty.
I sighed and picked my phone to call Mateo.
” Inform Silas, That his contract has been approved, I don’t want to give it to anyone aside from him ”
” But….. ”
” No buts, Do what I said ” I ordered and cut the call.
” Honestly, I don’t know what’s wrong with this so called rich people, Their mentality is very low and bad, Why is it so wrong to marry from a poor background?, Most of them are in unhappy marriages because of the wife they choosed for them, What nonsense “She snorted and I smiled.
” And why are you telling me this? “I asked folding my arms and she move her eyes around beautifully before shrugging.
” I’m not telling anyone, Was just speaking to myself, I wish the rich wake up one day and change their mentality in all this, They disgusts me a lot” She huffed and I laughed.
” Trust me, It’s their choice, And your opinion doesn’t matter about this ”
” It matters, If everyone can fight against… ”
” And who are the ‘EVERYONE’ you’re talking about?, You think people will support if you tried to make any opinion against this? You should leave then like this “I interpolated and she nodded.
” I ha*te everyone, Y’all disg*usts me “She seethed angrily before leaving the room and I laughed.

EVENING.
I got to the main mansion to give Dad the feedback and he’s not yet back.
” I will just leave, Once he’s back, Give him the documents ”
” You know I won’t give him? “Brea, asked and I scoffed.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
” Wait, I don’t understand your attitudes anymore these days, Do you do these intentionally or what?, The doctor called this morning and told me about this high blood pressure, what did you think you’re doing?, The same way you made my….”
” The same way I cleared your mom out of the way because she’s stressing me, You think I will make you stay as well?, Trust me, I will clear you out of my way with no traces “She threatened and laughed evilly.
I seethed angrily and slammed the documents on her before leaving the house.
