Zaneska's voice could be heard all the way through the mansion. Because she saw the look of her expensive large jars on display in her living room that were broken. She seemed to be in a trance when she entered her house, with the three broken jars scattered on the floor.

"All of you come here to the living room! Who did it? Do you have any idea how much that is? It costs more than your life!" I exclaimed loudly.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAvrHVvtOLKf
My ten assistants all bowed in front of me. Others are still shaking in fear. Because they can see how irritated I am.
475Please respect copyright.PENANACFlITB6ntL
Later, one of Lucianna approached me with a bow.

475Please respect copyright.PENANA0dpuF15vY3
475Please respect copyright.PENANAO5dz6GeU71
"I apologize, ma'am; my son arrived earlier, and he was playing in the living room, and his hand just happened to land on the jars," she explains.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA8cf7PuA7gI
475Please respect copyright.PENANAulAA29NqIv
475Please respect copyright.PENANA6jA19tSF8x
My hair suddenly stood on end.

"Luciana, my house is not a playground; I told you both just before you came in as my staff that you should take care of the things inside the house," I said, one hand on my brow and the other on my hips.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAw0H5zSFWXw
She was trembling in fear of what I was about to do to her, I noticed.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAMCAru0XihM
"All right, please put that broken jar in the trash can, because the next time something breaks in this house, I'm not going to forgive you," I explained to each of them separately.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAinu2G3EmSU
475Please respect copyright.PENANAimOIS3empD
They nodded and walked away from Luciana, leaving her to shed glass. After that, I went to my room and sat on my bed. After a while, my phone rang. I picked up the phone because it was my assistant, Randolf, who was calling.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAALARynI3lK
475Please respect copyright.PENANA48ILOKX2mS
475Please respect copyright.PENANANxMZKOGk0t
"What exactly is it?" I asked him.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAPcRXsB8eb4
475Please respect copyright.PENANAta0LnqjQ3T
"Miss Zaneska, all of our investors have pulled their investments in us," he said over the phone, trembling.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAv6p0DnI9K9
475Please respect copyright.PENANA7uvKJLm5Ag
My brow furrowed in response to what I heard.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAXKZzokmm4L
475Please respect copyright.PENANARawK24iobX
"What's the reason, Randolf?" I asked.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAyLthZc2LHN
"I'm not certain, Miss," he admits.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAZfJmb9tIcY
475Please respect copyright.PENANAjN5fe6ug6s
"Fix it right away," I said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANApWrmIxqvnM
"I tried to fix it, but they need to talk to you," he says on the other end of the phone.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA4eIvqKF1sv
"And why is that? You're my assistant, so you have the authority to solve the problem."
475Please respect copyright.PENANAP2mrzmMs1T
475Please respect copyright.PENANAGJQJtJcmU9
"I've done everything I can, but they still refuse. Mr. Chin is even worse," he complains.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAxTzuRGPJWL
475Please respect copyright.PENANAxypbxrs1ej
Mr. Chin is a Chinese investor who lives in China. We fixed the investment, but why was he yanked? Is he lying to me? I sat down on the bed, my phone still in my ear.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA5YHTuVPeye
475Please respect copyright.PENANA0Mrivic55Y
"Randolf, take a deep breath. I've heard your nervousness all the way up here," I said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAWs4WaJthj5
475Please respect copyright.PENANAvvgKT9mlwN
"I was suddenly afraid that you would chastise me for withdrawing their investments," he said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAmqzFWFfmo5
Because of what he said, I rolled my eyes.
475Please respect copyright.PENANABCFkYXxUrg
"Aren't you used to my routine? How long have you worked with me?" I asked.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAY1rciYtrp5
I could hear his heavy breathing on the other end of the line.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAurXKFfMiJH
"All right, call them and set up a meeting," I said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA1BUfnZKljA
475Please respect copyright.PENANAPqIECRJSze
"OK, Miss," he said as he hung up the phone.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAh5eMCkZEI9
475Please respect copyright.PENANAplLaY4kt6x
I put the phone down on the table, undressed, and went into the bathroom to take a shower; I'm leaving now; it's about seven o'clock in the evening.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA6lDXFCSoYY
I had a flashback to Mitch. She didn't even call out to say hello. Their house is in the province, and I haven't seen her in a long time. I'm too preoccupied with my life. As a result, I sometimes neglect myself.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA6QrVQayF9Q
475Please respect copyright.PENANA8SLYClAQlA
So I decided to get out of the house and go to the city to relax. I couldn't even give my housemates free time anymore. I know they need a break as well because they work hard here at the mansion. I also provided them with excellent benefits and pay.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAO27etabViq
I have no issues with them because they are both courteous and dependable at work. They are both unmarried. Luciana is the only one had a child without a husband.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAo1NouOe99a
I emerged from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my entire body.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAiRHwGgrqPA
I looked for clothes that I could wear later in the day in the city.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAyzNtSZ0tHN
I took my ripped jeans and binge-colored crop top. I put on light make-up and wore it. I went down the stairs before I was satisfied with my appearance. First, I went to the kitchen to take a look. And I noticed some foods that had been prepared on the table. I slice a piece of cake and ate it.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAzneDIYGmUf
When Luciana entered the kitchen, I was drinking water.
475Please respect copyright.PENANASAByrnXZoK
"Please call them all, Luciana, and let us eat together," I said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA5UjynKIGQT
She stopped as a result of what I said. Maybe she is taken aback because I had just said that we would all share a meal. They all entered the kitchen a minute later, while I was already sitting in a chair.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAjyxvoDShVZ
"All of you sit down and eat," I order.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAWjBi80ZXKA
They took their seats one by one and began to eat.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAZi4vHlGpib
475Please respect copyright.PENANA39nVHDTRZy
"Maybe you'd like to accompany me to the city to unwind," I suggested.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAekCHQ9VeQE
475Please respect copyright.PENANA2Zm4RI1t1C
They all turned to look at me at the same time.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAsWMIitNSU1
"All right, Miss, we'd like to try going out at night as well," Mila said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAo4XF62UYqC
475Please respect copyright.PENANA3POQhVeSOK
I cracked a grin.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAuga61S875d
"OK, get dressed, and I'll meet you all outside the house," I said.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA5PjHjg2JgD
475Please respect copyright.PENANAy8VU47QzjS
475Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8rOnf553E
I stood up and walked out of the kitchen. I called Randolf while I was out of the house. I called three times, but he never returned my calls. He called just as I was about to hang up the phone.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAWgEeriepcB
475Please respect copyright.PENANAQvlm7pq1fb
475Please respect copyright.PENANA88aO3nZSNA
"Hello, Randolf, how are you?" I asked.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAe9j0rXgFMb
475Please respect copyright.PENANAT0dT4FYJL1
"At home, Miss," he replied with a heavy breathing.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAtRiTHACUEF
475Please respect copyright.PENANAnfzaJDljru
It's as if he's been running for a long period.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAVcORhjoP4B
I thought I blushed when I realized what Randolf was doing. I quickly hung up the phone and pressed the power button. Shit! I was suddenly embarrassed about what I had done. Why did I dial his number? When I realized he'd done something shady.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAEgwHyIWhe6
Randolf has a girlfriend who lives in the same house as him. Their relationship has been going on for four years, as far as I know. It's a good thing I never found out about his girlfriend's jealousy. Better in a relationship where there is mutual trust. I suddenly wondered, Why didn't I have a relationship? Is there something wrong with me? Is my appearance unattractive? Is there nothing unique about me? But I didn't feel insecure in the good relationships of others. I've reached this age, but the man hasn't come for me yet. I've been waiting outside the mansion, but the girls who were with me in the house have yet to come out.
475Please respect copyright.PENANABN5FEvBHpq
475Please respect copyright.PENANANcHObK4Qyj
I also noticed that they were pushing up against the gate.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAt6tLUAiv5o
"Hurry up, it's too late," I told them.
475Please respect copyright.PENANANqR5cmhjnQ
As a result, they moved closer to me. I held a big car to accommodate all of us. I was able to smell their perfumes. Why do they appear to be drenched in perfume? My head shook. They weren't overjoyed at the prospect of coming out. Because I can see it on their faces, they are all wearing make-up. I started the car and drove away from my house.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAnyeNq3Pxyz
475Please respect copyright.PENANAEKz0LHu2WW
"You should all know how to drive because if it's like this, I'll have difficulty driving because you're all heavy," I joked.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAETdPYqSsyu
They were all cracking up. We've made it to town. I stopped the car on the outskirts of the plaza. We were all getting into the car and driving away. The night is cool. My eyes darted all over the place. There are still businesses open, and couples sit in cement chairs holding hands. I furrowed my brow. I was obsessed with earning money.
475Please respect copyright.PENANADCzABV9XQh
475Please respect copyright.PENANAjdbJtoU0gS
I had no idea there was a place like this in the city. In the center of the plaza, there is a fountain. There were kids running around and groups of girls and boys dancing. I turn to face my companions, who are already sitting in a shop selling stick-pierced foods. I could see the joy on their faces. They're all nine, but I'll never forget what they're called. They brought light into my life. I was relieved that there were some people who stuck by me. That means I have a good attitude.

I was staring at them when someone grabbed my hand. When I looked at it, I noticed that the girl was unkempt. Her two hands are extended to me.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAifT4wKu6e6
"Can I have some money? I'm hungry," she said, holding her stomach.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAxyIvA6d6ts
I reached into my channel bag's money pocket and handed it to her.
475Please respect copyright.PENANARubeqyWMUp
475Please respect copyright.PENANA7PE94ivdKD
"The amount of money you gave," she said to me.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAqyw2fBdr90
475Please respect copyright.PENANA3GdaCrQyRn
"How much does that cost?"
475Please respect copyright.PENANAswZAZzfrXo
475Please respect copyright.PENANAvGrfofqoSE
475Please respect copyright.PENANAWPH06SUqf6
"It's a thousand, Ma'am," the child said replied.
475Please respect copyright.PENANAfNLI7vPK2q
475Please respect copyright.PENANA3WacCGFVwO
475Please respect copyright.PENANArDCbXq2BfY
I smiled as she said it.
475Please respect copyright.PENANApqjMZzRTts
"How do you know?" I asked.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA13XqgTGCyK
475Please respect copyright.PENANAf6JhWHLaA2
"I'm just dirty, but I know how to count money." She explained.
475Please respect copyright.PENANA5OqlBtAHIi
I smiled. I appear to want to talk to this kid.
