Chapter 44 Livia daydreamed while finishing a box of strawberries on the kitchen table. She saw the chefs preparing dinner. However, her eyes saw them but not her mind.
Her relationship with Damian is going very well so far. Yes, he is already acting like a human she could talk to.
She still has to keep her distance, either her heart or her body, because she knows Damian doesnât love her and she was just a maid to him. Helena, the woman he loved, has also returned. Maybe this time, he is confused. But love can not lie. It must return to its proper place.
Livia had finished her strawberries, and she moved the box aside. Then she got up from her seat. She wanted to talk to a human. She was about to go to the back house but when she saw Jenny, her sister-in-law lying on the sofa in the living room.
She approaches her and sits down on the couch in front of her. Jenny glanced briefly, did not act, then chose to keep playing with her smartphone. âJen,â Livia called.
âWhat?!â Jenny retorted, âDonât talk to me.â
âJen, do you think Damian still loves Helena or not?â She doesnât care about Jennyâs last sentence. Jenny was annoyed, got up from sitting, and slammed the smartphone beside her. Sheâd been told about the increasingly strict house rules regarding mentioning Helenaâs name, especially when Brown had already punished three maids for gossiping about Helena.
Jenny didnât know that the girl in front of her was the source of yesterdayâs problem.
âSister-in-law, please donât talk about Sister Helena anymore. I donât want to be punished by Brown.â
âBrown isnât there right now.â Her gaze swept across the room. Thereâs no one here, Livia muttered. âDo you really think that Brother Damianâs eyes in this house are only Assistant Brown?â Mr. Matt passed by, walking towards the kitchen.
Livia saw Jenny glance at the man.
âSo lower your voice. Why are you shouting? Iâm not deaf either.â Livia smiled, shrugging her shoulders. âDo you know why did Damian scold Helena yesterday? Even I feel sorry for her.â
âSister-in-law, what exactly do you think in your mind? Itâs a miserable marriage life for you, and you have to pity yourself, not sister Helen.â Insulting with her eyes, Jenny patted the chair next to her for Livia to move closer.
Damian has a lot of ears and eyes in this house, and it could hurt her if Brown finds out that she talks a lot to Livia.
Actually, she wants to talk like this not because she likes Livia, not at all. She just wanted to see her sister-in-lawâs mental down.
âWhere should I start so your little brain will be worked out?â Jenny was confused about where she should speak so that this woman would cry and lament. It must be very happy to see her sad. So far, she has always lost her tongue with her.
âWhy not from their meeting?â Livia was enthusiastic.
Cool, it turns out that Jenny is actually innocent and sweet. Her behavior was almost the same as Davidâs. Just by a little provoked, all the secrets will be revealed perfectly.
âGreen Lake.â
âWhy do you always talk about the green lake? Whatâs the matter with that lake?â âThat was the first place Brother Damian and Sister Helena met.â
Livia was stunned.
So the lake is where their love grows. But wait, didnât Noah also consider the place sacred. So, in fact, how is the relationship between the three people?
âNow, do you understand? Although Brother Damianâs attitude is cold towards Helena, he still loves Sister Helena very much. So the one who should be pitied is you, Sister-in-law.â
âWhy?â Innocent that is not made-up. Livia really does not understand the meaning of Jennyâs words this time.
âSister-in-law, have you never seen TV? How is the green lake now?â Jenny felt annoyed.
âI also pass by the lake every day. Now itâs built magnificently.â
âThatâs Brother Damian who built that place. Youâre really stupid.â Jenny glared at Livia.
âBeing stupid can save my heart, you know? It turns out that Damianâs love for Helena is so deep. So what should I do?â While rubbing her cheek, she was acting sad.
âSister-in-law, you are hopeless.â Jenny patted Liviaâs back again, feeling a little pity. âIâm so sorry, Sis, you havenât even gotten the luxury for a year, and you have to be kicked out of this house.â
âUh, Iâm so happy, Jenny!â Finally, Livia finds an oasis that can help her survive.
âBut shouldnât Damian be happy that Helena is back? Thereâs no need to be so mad. The priority is that Helena is back.â
âTsk, sister-in-law, you really donât know anything, huh?â Jenny snorted. âBrother Damian is the only son of this countryâs top wealthy family, who started to continue the family business from a very young age. Our dadâs accident changed everything in our lives. Brother Damian, who should still be in school, has already become the highest leader in Alexander Group. I was still playing with dolls when Brother Damian had to start replacing dad.â
âI never played with dolls after when I was seven years old.â Livia bitterly answered.
âIâm so sorry, were your family really poor?â Jenny tapped Liviaâs shoulder again. She didnât know that Livia never played with a doll because her stepmother never gave her a doll.
âBrother Damian has become much more possessive of us. For fear of us getting hurt or something, we must report everything we do to him. He can get angry if we do something without his permission.â
âWhy?â
âBecause Brother Damian is afraid that something will happen to us, he doesnât want to lose anyone again.â
Something popped into Liviaâs chest. It turns out that the man who looks cold would also be warm-hearted and cares about his family.
âAnd because Helena left without her permission, heâs furious, huh?â
âThatâs right. Even though we like Helena, we are also a little annoyed with her. Sister Helena has opened up Brother Damianâs old wounds. He must remember the pain because of the sudden death of our dad.â âGosh, why am I so tolerating some of his arrogant traits? Okay, Iâll forgive him for bullying me as long as itâs within the limits of reasonableness.â Livia couldnât help but sigh.
