Episode 7
Bella
“Who did this you Bella?” He asked.
I was dumb for seconds but I can’t tell him my parents did this
“Just a minor accident sir, I will get going now, enjoy your meal.” I said to him bowing my head.
“If you leave without my approval, just know you are fired.” He ordered me.
” God what have I gotten myself into now?” I said mentally.
“Alright sir, please don’t fire me.” I said to him.
“Good, now where is the jacket I gave to you, you were supposed to return it, go and get it.” He said then I remembered I left it in my storage room.
“Sir please!” I went on my knees, “I forgot it at home but promise to bring it back tomorrow, please just pardon me for today, you can still punish me for me failing to return it to you today.”
He looked at me and said, “That reminds me, I have a nice punishment for you just have you sit there.” He pointed at the couch in his room.
I was so scared to sit there. Wwho knows if it’s a trap or something else?
“Thanks, sir, but I prefer standing.” I said to him and he started laughing.
“Firstly I hate the much repetition of sir and secondly no one refuses my offer. Do you want me to fire you this instant? I ask you to sit and you are telling me something else.” He yelled and I got frightened that I had to rush sit at the couch.
I started wondering in my thought what he actually needs from me, besides I’m not the only maid here, I will beg Brenda to send in another maid to serve him because I feel working with him, he might just fire me soon.
I was busy with my thought when he returned with different files all scattered all over and I wondered what he expects me to do with it, either I dispose of it or sending me on an errand to give to someone.
“Now this is what you do.” He said pointing the files.
“Firstly you arrange this a4 papers in this very green file and this colored print out here and when you are done, the last thing you will do for me is to stamp some files which can be done tomorrow.” He said.
I can’t believe I will be here in his room tomorrow after having thought of begging Brenda to send someone else.
“Okay sir, I will do it right now.” I replied to him.
I started doing as he instructed me to do but lost focus on it when he took off his shirt, sitting on the bed, and eating the food I served him.
My stomach gave me a disgrace in his presence and he asked if I was hungry then I lied, then it made the same sound again so he told me after being done with what am doing, I should get food from the kitchen with his permission.
I won’t do that because I don’t know what his intentions are.
I got confused at a point on what he asked me to do, I stood up walking to his directions, and said, “Sir, I notice this document is different from the rest you instructed me to do, if I may ask, what can I do with it?”
I can’t believe he stood very close to me that I couldn’t breathe properly and my eyes were down escaping his cute eyes.
Then he explained what I should do, I started admiring his body again that I bit my lips, I was so stupid when he finished explaining that I missed a step and he redirected me to the bed and said be careful.
My heart was racing so fast and I nodded going back to the couch when his mom came in and shouted at me that I almost collapse. My parents are even learning from Mrs. Wilson when it comes to shouting.
“Bella! What the hell are you doing in my son’s room? Don’t you have work to do? Will you get out of here this instance, your trash”.
” I’m sorry ma.” I can never tell her he wanted me here because I can’t get fired.
I rushed out of the room and I was breathing heavily and thank God she didn’t end up hitting me.
I had to wash the dishes and carried out other house chores when Brenda told me to please do her make-up after closing from work that she has a date tonight.
I already promised her, “We have a little problem”
“What problem could that be?” Brenda asked.
“I don’t have makeup kits but if you can get, powder, oil control, concealer, different makeup brush, and some important things included, you will be magically transformed.”
“Sure, that shouldn’t be a problem then.”

The room meant for the maid, we went there and did the makeup.
I must say now she looks so beautiful compared to that previous make-up she always carries on her face and is super proud of my work, I know I’m good.
“Now just smile.” I said to her adding the final touch and asked her to look in the mirror.
She almost cried and that would have ruined the makeup and then she thanked me a lot for the makeup and gave me food to eat because my stomach has been rumbling ever since.
In my life, I have never been opportuned to eat such a delicious meal, I was eating like I was chased by someone, and other maids who came in just laugh at my manner of eating but I don’t care.
I’m happy I’m eating something good now, even if I’m not given food at home tonight I know I’m full already.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
When I finished eating my food, I had to wash the plate I used in eating and made sure I don’t come across Mrs. Wilson when leaving.
I don’t want her to scold me or fire me, maybe it’s best she just scolds me instead of her firing me off the job.
I came out and decided to just trek home so the money can be saved for my going most times.
Getting home I decided to say hi to my friend Lisa and tell her all that happened today, I want to share with someone but ny family and sisters won’t give me listening ears.
She was happy to see me and hugged me gently. I even forgot I had injuries on my body and she told me she got me pain relief medicine from the pharmacy today because of the stress I go through every day.
I told her everything that happened to and she said, ” Wow that your boss is damn handsome with the description you just gave, what if he’s hitting on you huh!”
“What? No way, this is no movies or book, I’m just a low life and he’s a billionaire and you know what that means right?”
“Well you are right but when love is involved who cares about background.” She added.
She also told me her experience at work tonight, how a guy that looks rich tried flirting with her and I couldn’t stop laughing as she frowned.

“I’m happy you came by, you need to start going home before your parents pick another offense, it’s almost 10 pm.” She said and I hugged her before leaving but I feared that I might be punished for coming late but all the same I’m just coming from work and no car is dropping me home.
Getting home, I greeted my parents who ignored my greetings and stopped me from going in or working as usual.
I started calculating what I did wrong again and I wasn’t ready to get beaten tonight and they didn’t refer to the fact I came late.
“So you are now selling your body to get expensive things right?” Mom said.
“No mom, that’s not true, I’m still a virgin.” I said to her.
She used her bag she was holding to hit me and said. “How dare you call me a liar?”
I won’t lie, I’m so confused right about now, I’m just been accused wrongly for what I didn’t do.
Father added saying, “Where did you get the expensive jacket from?”
This is where I know I am so finished and I tried telling them my boss’s son gave it to me when I was almost raped but they never believe.
“Wilson son will never help a low life like you. If you can’t say the truth, I will so beat you and you will be sleeping outside the house tonight.”
“Mom please.” I started pleading but my sister was kind of increasing their temper towards me.
To be continued…
Another problem for Bella again?
