Amelia stirred in her bed. Groaning slightly, she tried to burrow deeper under the covers, but it was no use. She knew she had to get up and start her day.

It was 5 a.m., and Amelia had a very important task ahead of her: she was going to cook breakfast for her grandmother.

"I wish Mom would allow the maiden to cook for Granny too. What's all the stress?". She muttered to herself.

With a deep breath, Amelia threw back the covers and swung her feet out of bed. She stretched her arms and legs, feeling the warmth spread through her body, and padded across the room to the bathroom to splash her face with cold water.

Feeling more awake, Amelia headed for the kitchen, her mind already buzzing with the possibilities for breakfast.

She knew she had to make something that would be easy for Granny to consume.

He headed straight to the bathroom for a bath, and after 30 minutes of showering,he came to his wardrobe to get himself a good outfit that fit the day."I think a white collar shirt and black trousers will be a perfect match."

I can't let this keep me inside." As she spoke, their housekeeper was to be summoned."I had been feeling weak and under the weather for days now. I had been staying at home, trying to rest and regain my energy. " Alice muttered to herself in a worried way.As she sat on the edge of the bed,she heard a knock at the door.

    "I guess you had time with Dave in the evening; that's why you feel weak inside".Alice rolled her eyes, knowing full well that Juliet was about to tease her for something. "Very funny, Juliet. Yes, I'm up and getting ready for work. Unlike some people, I have responsibilities."Juliet laughed. "Oh, come on. You can't blame me for trying. But seriously, how are you feeling after last night?"Alice had to think for a moment before responding. "Uh, I'm fine. Why? Did I do something embarrassing?"Juliet chuckled. "No, not really. But you were definitely feeling good last night, thanks to all that alcohol you drank. I warned you not to do it, but you never listen to me."Alice gave a half-hearted shrug. "I don't really remember much from last night. But I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything too crazy."Juliet laughed again. "Well, you were definitely a little more...sociable than usual. But don't worry, you didn't embarrass yourself or anything."Alice breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, go

    Dave turned his head, his eyes narrowing as he carefully sized up the new arrival. It was one of his trusted employees, a woman who had been working in his Dad's company for years."What is it, Maria?" Dave asked, his voice tight with frustration.Maria held up a file folder, her face serious. Dave could tell from the way the other man held himself that this was not going to be good news."I'm sorry to say it, boss, but Nelson Cruz has done it again," Maria said, laying the folder down on the desk in front of him.Dave glared at the folder before him, his fists clenching. He knew all too well what was inside. This was the third time that Cruz had been caught perpetrating a crime against his company, and Dave was beyond fed up."He needs to be stopped," Dave said harshly. "I want him arrested. This cannot continue."Maria nodded. "I understand the boss, and I agree that something needs to be done. We'll get on it right away."Dave breathed a deep sigh of relief as Maria left the room.
