"Mom, please answer the call. " Mildred placed her phone close to her ear, pacing about the dining room, alone. After what happened yesterday, Mildred has been trying to contact her mother to speak with her. But Mrs Hathaway didn't answer her calls. She kept declining her daughter's calls.This made Mildred unhappy. She kept calling and hoping her Mom picks up. "Mom, I'm begging you," She pleaded sadly, but still nothing.After trying the thirty fifth time, Mildred just say down on one of the chairs in the dining room, covering her face with tristesse. "I'm sorry Mom," She apologized, even though her mother wasn't there with her. "Can I bring you something to eat ma'am?" A maid _who came in and met Mildred in her sorrowful state_ asked her.Mildred _still covering her face down_ refused to eat anything. "I'm not hungry," she said. "Oh... Okay, " The maid said, stepping away from Mildred. She felt unhappy seeing her in that position. She don't know how to help Mildred out.The
After what she heard, Mildred had no doubt that Emily is planning something devious."I don't know who she was talking to. Whoever that person is, he'll be coming over to the mansion this evening or probably not," Mildred pointed out while making her way down the stairs. She still recurred the raging tone Emily had used on the person she was talking to at the other end.To Mildred, it sounded like the person doesn't want to help Emily in her plan, and that's making Emily mad."A paper. What exactly is this paper? " Mildred wondered. Arriving at the bottom of the stairs, the maids Emily had sent for, came rushing towards the stairs with all the beauty care items Emily demanded for.They all had anger written on their faces, speaking ill about Emily. "She didn't even consider the fact that we're busy. ""She's cruel.""I told her we were all busy, but she didn't care. She was just shouting.""I hate her with so much passion. And to think that we were all being nice to her then. It ju
Mildred and Frank had to step out of the mansion together, taking a stroll around the mansion."That's what she was saying?" Frank asked Mildred.She nodded at Frank. "That's what I heard her yelling about to this stranger at the other end. She sounded so desperate and furious, " Mildred shared with Frank. This amused Frank. He rubbed his chin and placed a stop to his feet, same with Mildred. He said, nodding his head lightly, "Only if that man she was speaking to, shows up this evening. That's when we can tell exactly what that paper is for.""I suspect that Emily is planning something against Savador. The way she was acting... You should have seen it Frank. How I wish you where there to witness her rage on those poor maids. It was as if they were the ones that offended her, " Mildred described to Frank."And you said the fellow said something to annoy Emily? Hmm... Indeed she's planning something," Frank supported Mildred."Here's what we'll do," Frank said, telling Mildred the pl
Delight filled Emily's eyes when she saw the papers in her lawyer's hands.He showed it to her and said, " I had to get it ready for you. Truly, the law hasn't been giving me the finances I need that much. But since you have promised me something good... ""I shall reward you greatly, you brave lawyer of mine, " Emily cuts in, interrupting her lawyer. She immediately took the paper at once in her hold."You shall be greatly rewarded," She grinned out, turning the pages of the document. She looked through it and saw hers and Savador's name written inside. Her eyes wouldn't leave the paper. Finally, her victory is near, just as she has always wanted. "You don't know what you have done for me. You have just saved me from a stressful journey I planned to embark on in the morning. I had plans to also ditch you and get myself a more better lawyer with sense. But..." Emily grinned. "I am proud of your own brain. You shall and must be favoured when I'm rich again."The lawyer hummed, bowing
She finally has it. The key to taking her out of poverty.Emily sat in her room in the morning, staring at the papers beautifully. Her smiles grew larger and bigger, as she kissed the document passionately. "You will make me filthy rich. I'll be a trillionaire through you, " She laughed, hugging the document.DING! She gets an alert on her phone. Emily checked and saw that Savador has sent her double the money she requested for.Her face lightened up at once. She held her phone and sent some money to her lawyer, before sending him a text message."Money sent, " She texted."Greedy bastard. He always act like a saint before us, but he's as bad as every other villain," She chuckled, mocking her lawyer.Dropping her phone aside, Emily lifted the document to her face and hummed. "I have to execute this plan at once. There's no time to waste. My family are crumbling in poverty and I'm the only one who can save them, " She said, opening to the page where Savador will have to sign. "I ha
Having made her decision, Mildred carefully followed Emily. She waited at the door and watched her take one of Savador's cars, zooming out through the gate.Once she was out, Mildred immediately went to take one car as well. She took the one that Emily won't easily recognize that much. "Thank you, " She appreciated the guard that handed her the key. "Do you want me to come along with you, Ma'am?" A guard asked, showing a sign of interest to assist Mildred."Yes please, " Mildred accepted. She's still yet to learn how to drive. She would have learnt that a long time, if not for Emily's presence in the mansion. She thanked the guard and got in with him. He starts the car and drove out through the gate."Follow Emily," Mildred ordered the guard. She had seen the path Emily took after driving out through the gate. She told the guard to speed up so they could catch up with her. Without asking any questions, the guard did as Mildred wants. He applied speed to the car, drove fast and
After all the stalking, Mildred sat in the car, lost in her thoughts.Her mind on Emily and what she had gone to the chemist and clothes store to get."It just doesn't make sense to me. Does this mean that I just followed her about like some kind of body guard?" Mildred wondered, still thinking about it. She failed to hear the guard calling her attention, until he tapped his seat and called her again. That brought Mildred out of her thoughts. "We are here, " The guard said to Mildred. She lifted her gaze and found the car parked next to the mansion. "How long was I thinking?" She asked herself almost inaudibly.Dropping her gaze on the guard, Mildred thanks him for his help throughout. "I really appreciate your assistance, " She said. "Anything for you, ma'am," He said, bowing lightly at her. Carefully, Mildred stepped out of the car with the shopping bags she got from the clothes store and made her way inside. Stepping into the mansion, she decided to take her mind off the ch
Towards the evening, Emily _all set for the plan tonight_ made her way to the kitchen to see what the maids are doing. She knows that they'll be making dinner already, so she immediately went there to take hers and Savador's. When she arrived there, Emily met the maids already done with dinner, set to clean up the kitchen. She cleared her throat to make herself know to them at once, which it worked.The maids looked at her and found Emily standing next to the door like some goddess, flipping her hair back and passing out an instruction to them. "I want mine and my husband's dinner brought to my bed room. We will be having our dinner there, " Emily notified them at once. The maids looked at themselvesthemselves then at Emily, finding this strange."Eating in the room when she's not sick? ""She must have made that decision to the Master, so he'll agree with her."The maids whispered in secret. "Is that clear? " Emily raised her voice, asking them. The maids composed themselves a
