(Choon-hee POV)

I've been living in the Douglas Family Mansion for days, it's been a few days since I've seen the Douglas Family as a whole. they seem to be busy with their respective lives and possibly very many affairs.

Edwards and I also rarely talked, we only met when he came home from work and even then it was very late at night. When I woke up in the morning, he had already left without breakfast. Maybe he had breakfast with Violet at the office, maybe. Because Violet had doubled as Edwards' secretary at this time.

Like now, It's already late afternoon. But the Mansion was still quiet, I never spoke again to Mrs Douglas or Mr Douglas. Only a few times talking with Azzhura, she looks relaxed but her mouth is a little rude. I didn't or whether that was her behavior, or she just had to talk myself into a conversation.

I walked towards the kitchen, choosing to grab a healthy meal. I really want a fruit salad and avocado with thick flesh, it must be very good to eat together. When I opened the Kitchen door, I saw two maids with their backs to me. they seemed to be busy chatting and didn't see me coming.

I just walked to the refrigerator to get some fruit, but my hands stopped immediately when I heard the chat from the two waiters.

"Poor about our new madam, who is said to be a paid Woman. She was only made into a puppet to produce a successor to the Douglas family. If I were her I would be very embarrassed." The short haired maid said, I've been staring at them in silence.

"Why are you ashamed? After all, she must have been paid very dearly, don't you want to make love to young Mr. Edwards and feel his burly body? Moreover, paid very expensively? I still want to feel all the beauty and get all the facilities available . gosh, that woman is so lucky! her life will really be guaranteed." The long-haired maid said, hearing their chatter I smiled to myself.

It's true what they say, my life is quite lucky. but will it really be lucky?

"Are you sure your life will be good? You don't know how evil a rich family like the Douglas family is. I've lived and joined this family for many years, even before Miss Violet married Mr. Edwards. They didn't really love one another. each other well, they love each other because there is something they are after. Maybe you could say that the paid woman was lucky. but did you know that she could be killed? when she is no longer needed? even some of the maids here are already there. killed by Mrs. Anne. Because Mrs. Anne felt they were no longer needed." The short haired maid's words made me take a step back a little, I hid behind a large refrigerator. At least I can hear a little about the reality in this mansion.

"How do you know? Then why are servants not needed anymore? Aren't we working as instructed?" asked the long-haired maid.

"The maid who was murdered was a special servant at Mrs. Anne's job to find out about Mrs. Douglas' activities. Because it was said that Mrs. Anne had her own obsession, but I don't know what her obsession was." The short-haired maid turned around and looked towards the door. I immediately backed away and tried to hide.

"Are you sure? Gosh, that's scary. I don't want to deal with them then, I just want to work as a maid in general. I don't want to get into trouble like that." The long-haired maid hurriedly cleared the dishes she was washing.

"That's why it's not good to be a special waiter, it's better like us. Just being a dishwasher and cleaning the kitchen, even though our pay is small. but at least we are still comfortable and our lives are safe, moreover we always eat well here.. ahh .. Well then, we'd better get back to clearing the table. The chef will come and cook for dinner soon." The two waiters walked away from the kitchen, I who had seen them leave could only stay silent in my place.

I became more and more curious about what Mrs. Anne had actually done. is she really that bad? Is the antagonist in the Douglas family actually Mrs. Anne?

So I didn't intend to take the fruit salad, I chose to just leave the kitchen through the back door. I walked quickly and sneaked out, at least step by step I knew what was going on in this big mansion that was in fact like a prison.

I've passed the back garden, walking down the alleys made of vines, I saw one of the gazebos which was quite large. Direct view of the artificial lake, I chose to walk that way.

But unfortunately I met Lecy. Edward's grandmother today, she was accompanied by two bodyguards in tow. Then her eyes also immediately looked at me, even though I wanted to run away if she didn't see me. But in the end I couldn't help but approach her to rebuke her for a moment. Remember! Just a moment..

"Good Afternoon Grandma, nice to see you here. Sorry to interrupt your time." I said as gently as possible, he looked at me and smiled.

"Hi Choon-hee, nice to see you. Come sit with me, I want to have tea in the afternoon. Usually I'm accompanied by Anne or Brandon, but they're out, please accompany me." Her words made me smile for a while, I'm actually not happy if I have to chat alone with her 

What else should I hear after this? Surely I will be despised in a sweet manner, And mocked with kindness. But still, It was a form of insult and ridicule. but I tried to be strong, I sat next to her face to face.

Her eyes are always fixed on the other person, maybe she's used to doing that. To make the other person feel awkward, because that's how I feel right now.

But I don't want to lose, I have to give a little resistance by looking directly into her eyes, eyes that are quite dark and sharp. The aura that was emitted from it was indeed very strong. I know that right now I'm like digging my own grave. But I don't want to let my guard down, I have to tell her that I am a woman who is quite brave and still has a little bit of self-worth. even though I'm here to get paid and many profit.

"Do you like green tea with an apple scent?" she asked me when several maids came over with tea she meant, and those maids were the two maids who had been talking about me. Luckily I quickly got out of the kitchen, otherwise they might have come back and found me hiding.

"I like all kinds of Tea.." I said quietly, she immediately chuckled and nodded her head slowly.
