“What are you cooking?” Alexander walked closer to her.
“Coq au vin, chicken braised in red wine,” Maya answered. It’s one of her favorite dishes. Her voice was calm as if she was not affected by his presence. But that was far from the truth.

All the maids inside the house were going on full speed. It was just like the first day Maya saw Alexander.She then noticed that Sicilia had asked them to prepare the room next to Alexander’s for Stephany. The older lady was indeed up to mischief again.
Maya looked at Matilda with wonder, “Why? She is very beautiful, rich, and obviously smart, and her family is friends with the Knights. If he doesn’t choose a girl like her, then what can he possibly choose?” She asked. He, of course, has an option to choose or select a man.Matilda smiled before, and her chin raised towards Maya’s
“I also like sweet! Alexander likes sweets!” Sicilia declared vehemently.Maya pursed her lips. She was not sure why she was not correcting the older lady’s assumption regarding her and Rick. If she would implicate Rick because of this, Maya will compensate him.
Rick saw her dumbfounded expression, “What? Just go to Matilda and talk to her. You might like me, but you should not bother me while I’m working.” He said loudly.Maya could not believe what he was talking about. It was not even her fault that she was asked to go to the surveillance room when he was still working.
In short, Maya must suffer for Alexander not to get angry and punish them. She would be a third wheel slash helper for the day.Surprisingly, when Sicilia Alexander voiced out this suggestion did not refuse. Even Stephany did not comment at all.
Maya’s face reddened. “Not really. But... Sicilia, to be honest, I can’t afford it. I think I should just go look somewhere else if I really need to be at the party while you’re here getting yours,” she softly said as if she was on the verge of tears, and it was a given that Maya was poor. She still felt sad blurting it out.&ldquo
You would think it’s some festival with all the people outside, Maya reached for Sicilia, and after posing a little, they went inside. The only difference with the previous part was that this one was more public.The cameras flashed even more when Alexander got out along with Stephany, and they all started showering them with questions.
Her eyes then scanned the area to find Stephany. Where was that woman when there was a need for her? Maya thought to herself.
