Chapter 2
The rays of the shining morning sun pierced through the curtains of Karen's bedroom giving it a warm glow as the cool saint of cherry mixed with cinnamon rented the air blending with the soothing vibe of the air condition. Karen tossed and turn bed before holding her grumbling stomach . she didn't eat anything before going to bed yesterday night . she parted her eyes open looking around the room and for once after many years she felt relieved . despite that she hasn't even fulfilled her plan of running far away at least she's left the brothel . she turned in bed for a while before finally getting up to do her morning routine .
Coming out from the bathroom someone also barged into her room and startled her making her almost fall . she regained her stance and gave the uninvited visitor a stern glare and she scoffed.
"What are you doing here ?." She asked after minutes of silent .
"Anyways I come to inform you breakfast is ready and we're not your maid here so you don't expect us to bring it up for you ." she replied harshly .
"You don't have to....."
" save it slut ." she shunned .
"What did you call me ?" .
"What did you hear ?".she retorted and stormed out banging the door . Karen stood on her spot taken aback by what just happened . she shoved it off and went to dress up . she put on a button down black flare gown , wore her flip flops and headed to dining room .
Getting to the dining room she met few people working and gossiping she sited the rude lady among them glaring at her . she also saw a woman looking Like she's in her early 50's setting the dining table . she headed to her and helped with the serving plate .
" you don't have to . " she refused .
" don't worry ma'am ." she insisted .
"Okay. Thank you so much my daughter . " she said with a broad smile and she nodded .
" I'm miss Emily . young masters nanny ."
"Ohhh. I'm Karen ."
"Karen? What a beautiful name ."
" thank you ma'am ."
" you look beautiful ." she teased and Karen blushed red . while Lydia the rude girl from the other time just hissed and glare at her and Karen saw her .
After setting the table only Karen and miss Emily sat at the dining as she creased her brow looking around .
"What is the problem?." Miss Emily requested .
"Are we the only ones to eat all this food?."
"No. ".
" so where's everyone ?."
" they are possibly waiting for you to leave before they come and have their breakfast ."
" why ?"
"You're new and you were brought in by the boss not as a maid but his personal person ."
"Okay." Just then Lydia passes by and hissed at Karen .
"Don't mind her she's just jealous of you. " miss Emily stated and Karen nodded.
" by the way , ask me anything that's bothering you ?." She said as Karen nodded and they dished out their foods munching on it .
"Where's young master?." She asked .
" he went to work ."
" OK ." she continued eating .
After eating she went back to her room and her day so boring . miss Emily checked up on her a few times already but she's till bored . not like it's any different from how are days went at the brothel . its even better cos there ain't no errands and crazy customers . but she's just bored at least at the brothel she has people to talk to . speaking of people to talk to . she missed Manuel so much but ever since he left for Russia last year he hasn't visited or called and she's a little bit offended .
The sound of blaring horn from the gate diverted her from her thought as she peeped through the window seeing Alexander drive in . immediately she felt her heart beat increased .
Moments later miss Emily came by to get her down for dinner and she was super scared and anxious as she followed miss Emily downstairs .
Alexander's deep blue eyes were all over her as she descended the stairs and she began fidgeting as Lydia eyed and curse her inwardly . she sat beside Alex at his right hand side as miss Emily sat at his left hand side .
Miss Emily dished out the food as they began munching .
" what's your name ?." Alex broke the deafening silence .
"Ka.. Karen ." she coughed out and he could feel her shyness or anxiousness .
They continued eating and this time he dropped a bombshell .
"Have you ever been touched ?." He asked this time with a stern glare and she choked up on her food
