"Agh!" Chloe gasped. More than pain, she is startled at the sudden incident. Ethan immediately ran toward her. "Oh, Lord. You alright?" He hold her by the shoulder and helped her to stand up. But the sudden fall made her legs numb and she stumbled again. Ethan was close to her and helped genuinely. However, none of them noticed how intimate the scene became. But, people standing in the distance noticed well enough. "Chloe Isabelle!"A High pitched and somewhat nervous tone of Kelly immediately parted them away. Kelly's heart almost ripped apart at the sight. The man she adores is so close to that bloody witch! How could she tolerate that!?Both their heads snapped in that direction. And Chloe regretted her reaction right away when her eyes fell on the very cold man beside Kelly. "Oh!" Unlike his boss, Cameron couldn't help his reaction and gasped at the sight of the woman. With the uniform, it was clear that she works here! And that made Chloe more helpless as she immediately low
Chloe Locked the door with a thud and leaned against the closed door. "How dare he said that to me!? Bloody ruthless cold arrogant bustard!" She spits just whatever came into her mouth. Her heart was beating faster, as she inhaled deep breaths to calm down her rage. However, with her anger decreasing, her deeds started forming a clear image in her mind. And soon the realisation hit her. "I..." Chloe blinked and her eyes widened in shock. Fear coursed in as she immediately covered her mouth with both hands. "Oh no!" She almost cried at her stupidity. "Oh, Lord! How did I lose my control like that!? Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! What have I done!? Shit!" She started cursing herself, pacing like a crazy woman. And in the distance, the little fellow who was playing with his blocks now stared at his new mother indifferently. His little mind is confused, not knowing what has gotten into this woman! Why she is acting crazy like this!? Does she not know, an adult should not panic like this before a
In the Old Rossi Mansion ... Anthony blew a set of smoke out of his mouth, leaning leisurely on his easy chair. Mind filled with the same thoughts. His family. How can he not worry when he has a very cold grandson and an even colder great grandson! A helpless sigh escaped his lips, getting Ast. Carson's attention. "Master, is there anything wrong?" He asked. Unlike his rigid posture, he cares about his master very much. At the attention, Anthony sighed again. "Is there any news from Daniel?" He asked, feeling restless. Even though he liked that girl for getting close to his great-grandson, it's still a question if she could melt that other iceberg! Carson realised his essence of worrying. "Master, please don't lose your heart. The new young Mistress has earned the attention of the little master already. I am sure, she will make it to the last." "You think so?" "Yes, Master..." Just after Carson's words left his tongue, Anthony's phone dinged with a text. It's very rare to come
The next morning, Chloe was almost reluctant to go out for breakfast. Alexander is back now and he must be having breakfast in the dining hall! How could she just go and face him after that scene last night! However, Leonor is a very self disciplined guy. He has to eat his breakfast in the dining hall and in just time! Moreover, he is unwilling to go without his new mother. After failing to convince him a couple of times, Chloe has to follow Leonor reluctantly. And as expected, the very cold Duke was present there already, waiting for his son to appear. When Chloe entered, their eyes met and she felt a cold shiver rush through her spine. The scene turned slightly awkward for both. Even the servants could feel the tension between them. Unaware of all the adultery going on around him, Leonor elegantly walked toward his seat and looked up to his mother to put him there. Chloe did and sat beside him. Suppressing her inner tension, Chloe concentrated on Leonor. She picked up nutritiou
That day, when Chloe returned home, Leonor was waiting outside for her with Daniel and Igor, with his little backpack on. The moment he saw her, Leo ran toward her and looked up for some attention with his expectant eyes. Chloe immediately bend down and picked him up. "Hello, pretty boy. What are you doing here?" She asked touching his chubby cheeks and Leo blushed at the remark. He hide his face on her neck and mumbled, "waiting." He still communicates with one word or highest, two. But, it was better than not talking completely. She walked forward and set her questioning gaze on Daniel. "Young Mistress, Elder Master called this afternoon and invited both you and little master for dinner. It's been a long time since he didn't see little master and you." "Oh... Okay." Chloe was wearing a suitable dress to meet her in-laws. So, she did not bother to change and nodded. "Let's go." Soon, they reached the Old Rossi Mansion. Chloe remembered this place. The new phase of her life sta
"You!? Wh... what are you doing here!?" Chloe was shocked. How could that man come here!? Alessio did not answer, instead, he took a step forward. "Heard the new young Mistress accepted the invitation. Seems like I have met her already?" His expression is blank. Chloe pursed her lips, not sure whether to reply to him or not. She even started feeling a little scared now. What if this man has any ulterior motive? "Uh-I guess, yes? But, who are you?" She asked carefully taking a step back from him. "The new young Mistress..." Alessio murmured the words as if he is trying to taste it. His eyes were on her and now amused. He took another step forward, "So, you are that mysterious woman, huh?" The distance started making Chloe uncomfortable. She took another step back and that hit her back to the cold wall. However, Alessio did not stop forwarding to her. "What..." She was about to speak, when, "Second Master, young Mistress, Elder Master is waiting for you." The familiar tone of Ca
Chloe was about to enter the car with Leonor when Alexander stopped her. "Get in my car." He stated coldly. Leo looked up at his father with a frown. He thought his father would also ask him. But when he realised he wouldn't, his frown deepened and he stared at his father with a dissatisfied look. Cameron opened the door for Chloe and she entered silently. Alexander's mood is strangely weird today. He is behaving too differently. Yet, she chose to not make a sound and oblige his orders. Leo stared at his father with some expectations, which did not work at all. "Close the door," Alex ordered and Leo turned way dissatisfied. He frowned again, "Bad guy... " He muttered and turned to the other side before the door is closed. Alexander "...." Did he just say that!? This little fella is getting too indisciplined and rebellious after that woman appeared in his life! Too much spoiled! Making a mental note to discipline him later, Alexander entered his car, beside Chloe. She sat in o
The next day, after breakfast, Chloe went to her room to get ready and found Daniel waiting for her with a stand of clothes. "Stuard Daniel?" She asked confusedly and watched the clothes. All of them are formal attires. "What are these for?" "Elder Master has prepared this for you and sent this message." Stepping forward, he handed her a piece of paper. 'Dear Chloe, Hope you got the present. I hope you will accept them and best of luck for your first day at work.' Chloe Looked up at the clothes again and smiled reluctantly. "Please let him know I accepted his present." "Yes, ma'am." With that, Daniel walked out of the room. Chloe looked at the set of clothes once again. All of them are expensive and custom made. Surely, won't control her privacy even at work. She chose the simple black suit with a knee length skirt and wore it. She looked at herself. Because of its simplicity, it might not catch the expected attention of people. With a sigh, she came downstairs and said goodb
