Lonely Bride

I looked down and saw Bella was sleeping, opening her mouth, and her head was on my chest and her legs were on Sean’s chest.

How I wish this could be real. It looks like a perfect family, but sadly, it’s not. Neither will it ever be.

Getting up from my bed, I padded towards the washroom to finish my morning routine and get ready for the day.

I walk out wearing some formal clothing. I check the bed, and both the people I left behind before going to get ready are still in their dreamland.

Shaking my head, I walk out and straight ahead toward the kitchen. I noticed Alvera was looking at something in the fridge.

“Good morning, Alvera,” I said while taking a glass of water.

“Good morning,” she replied sweetly.

“Alvera, I am going to the office and Bella is still sleeping, so can you keep your eye on her till I am back, please?” I asked her politely.

“Why are you requesting it? It’s my job, and I would love to do that. You don’t worry.” She said it cheerfully.

I can see how she admires Bella so much, but again, I cannot forget she is not a maid.

“No, it’s not your responsibility, dear, and please, I don’t like it when you do household work; neither does Sean.”

I said this with minor disappointment while looking at her. How she will do all the work.

“Mam… I mean, Sarah, I know I don’t have to do that, but to be honest, this is a slight gesture of thank you to Sir.

He has saved my life and sheltered me; moreover, he is taking care of all the expenses of my studies.

I mean, you do not know how grateful I am for his kindness and this.

” She showed me the work she was doing. “This all is nothing for what he has done to me. I might not think twice if I had to give my life to him. He is a brother I never had.” She spoke as if she worshipped Sean.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

And I find myself mum suddenly.

I wanted to blow her happy bubble about Sean being a good human being, but I knew I wouldn’t get anything, so I kept quiet and let her stay in her dreamland.

“Still, I don’t like to do any household work, but just because you like to do something, then take Bella’s responsibility completely so I can work with no worries,” I said and took my bag and my phone.

I walked out while hearing her say okay.

Nora was standing outside and talking to someone, but he got alert the moment he noticed my presence and walked towards me.

“Good morning, ma’am,” he said politely.

“Morning Nora. I want to go to my office. Can you please bring the car?” I said this while looking at my watch.

“Sure, ma’am, just give me a second,” he says, sprinting towards the garage to bring the car, and we are off to the office.

Once I reached the office, I noticed it looked good-not so big like our Australia one, but still not tiny.

Once I enter the office, I can see people looking shocked rather than surprised, as I am sure they might not be expecting me.

But again, I know I work behind the curtains, but I am still not an unknown face to my employees.

Nathan always mentions my name, and my pictures are easily available on our website and company profile.

I walked towards the reception area, and the girl had already stood up and come out of her cubicle with a polite smile.

“Good morning, ma’am,” She wished me before I said anything.

“Good morning…?” I asked her name while wishing her a good morning.

“Linda, my name is Linda.” She replied with brief hesitation, and I can see she is nervous.

“Ok, Linda, as I can see, you already know me, so would you like to show me my cabin, please?” I asked with utter politeness.

“My pleasure, maam; please do it this way.” Saying she leads the way and I follow her while looking at the office.

“I remember Nathan starting this office before I had stayed with Sean years ago, and now, after three years, I am standing at the place that was specially made for me.

“Thank you. Just arrange a quick meeting with the staff after 10 minutes. You may leave.” I said this while looking at the cabin.

“Sure mam, she said as she left the room and I inspected the office.

After I finished the small introduction meeting with the staff, I got myself busy with work.

Once I was done for the day, I went back home.

When I reached the home, I saw Camilla reading the magazine as if she owned this house.

And somehow, I did not like it a bit, so I walked ahead and sat in front of her. “Get water for me.” I ordered.

“Excuse me, are you talking to me?” She asked me innocently.

“Is there anyone else you can see?” I asked her to look here and there while raising my eyebrows.

“I am not your maid.” She snorted.

“Then do you enlighten me as to who you are if you are not a maid in my house?” I asked while resting on the couch. I crossed my hand over my chest.

“I know this is not your house.” She smirks, saying that.

“Oh? And who told you that?” I asked while tilting my head a little before she replied. I heard Sean and Bella giggling while coming towards us.

I looked up, and he was cleaning Bella’s face with his handkerchief while Alvera was trailing behind them.

I looked at Camilla, and she stood up while smiling, looking at Sean, and I rolled my eyes.

But then an idea shot up in my mind, and I smirked, looking at her and Sean.

“Ahem, Sean,” I said, and he hummed, glancing at me and then back to his work of cleaning Bella’s face.

“Can you transfer this mention to my name?” I asked innocently, and Sean’s face flung towards me.

I know one thing: whatever Sean is doing is related to my property, and right now he can’t risk it while making me unhappy anyway.

He scrunches his nose, hearing me as if, apart from all his fortune, I want this mansion.

But well, I don’t want this either, right? Someone has hurt my pride, and I wanted to show her my place and hers.

“I will inform my lawyer, and it will be done by tomorrow,” he said, leaving with Bella, and I looked at Camilla while hanging my face high.

“Now go get the water, hmm.? I said it sweetly, but she knew sweetness was far away from me.

Giving me a murderous look, she finally went out after stomping her legs.

And I smirked at my one more victory.
