Maid to the Billionaire

Episode Four

“What!!” You get to move into his house and stay by him at all times?” Emily literally screams her head off at dinner and I'm wondering what the matter is.

“Yes, what's wrong with that?” I ask, beginning to get annoyed at her reaction.

“It's Ivan Monteiro we are talking about and you will be working so closely with Ivan Monteiro.” Emily exaggerates.

“So?” I ask again ignoring her obvious insult.

“Why would they let you work in their home?” Emily whines like a two year old.

“Maybe because I'm specifically fit for the job?” I ask her with sarcasm dripping down my voice.

“Yes, obviously I understand that.” I look towards my mother as she only quietly sits there as we both argue.

“Well, I'm getting paid 5k monthly, including lot's of other benefits.” I say my excitement bubbling back in.

This job is worth more than a lot of office jobs. I am going to give it my all.

“What?” Emily screeches again and my parents stare at me in shock.

“For the job of a maid?” My father finally graces me with his voice.

“Yes dad.” I say with a large smile, enjoying their shock, I was also shocked too.

“Are you sure it's safe Marie?” My father asks and I nod.

“Yes daddy, it's very secure, I'll be moving in tomorrow, you can always call.” I tell them.

I'm partly grateful for this arrangement. As much as I love them, I get to be away from my family for a while especially with having to sit through talks about the upcoming wedding.

I get to also contribute to my parents from now on.

I have been at the Monteiro mansion for almost two weeks now, I haven't seen my boss since I got here and I have been having the time of my life with all the other employees, I am the youngest among them all, they all dot on me.

It's exciting and peaceful to be in such a cool and healthy environment.

“Marie, how excited are you that Ivan Monteiro is coming back home tonight.” Emily screeches happily.

Yes, Emily, she managed to crawl her way in here with me, she says she only wants a chance to see the great Ivan Monteiro up close. I could not understand what the big deal was but she's my sister and she managed to get our mother involved.

“I'm more nervous than excited, I'm scared I won't do good enough.” I unintentionally admit to Emily.

“You should be scared, have you seen Ivan Monteiro online? The man is savage and sexy, he doesn't fare well with not so classy individuals. Awwn I wonder how you are going to cope, Marie.” Emily coos out.

“I have been coping, I'm sure I'll do just fine.” I tell Emily before heading into the shower.

I bathe, securely put on my uniform and then head to the living room. I nervously try to reverse the words I would say to him.

“Marie, Marie.” The sound of Mrs. Leah shaking me awake interrupts my sleep.

“Oh my God, what time is it?” I ask her in panic.

“It's past 11 Marie, Mr. Ivan won't be coming back until very late, go to bed dear.” She tells me.

I can't believe I slept off waiting for my boss, such first impression I would have given.

“He's not back yet?” Emily asks me the moment I walk into the room.

“No, he's not.” He won't be back until midnight.” I tell Emily. “You have been up waiting?” I ask her surprised, Emily would never sacrifice her sleep for just anyone.

“Yes, you are not the only one who wants to see him.” She says flipping her hair and I sigh tiredly.

“Have you had dinner yet?” My brows raise in surprise at her question.

“No, why?” I ask her.

“I got us both dinner from the kitchen, yours is still there.” Emily explains.

“Just see it as a thank you gesture for letting me see Ivan Monteiro up close.” Emily explains further at my bewildered look.

Emily has never done anything nice for me unless she needed something in return, I guess this was understandable.

“Thank you.” I awkwardly say, I still do not have an appetite but it seems even the glass of water I took was enough for Emily with the large smile she had on.

I take my uniform off to go to bed.

“Are you going to wear that to bed?” Emily asks and my brows crease.

“Yes, what's wrong with it?” I ask her.

“Wear this Marie, I got this special nighties that I want you to try for me.” Emily says and I begin to feel disoriented and weird.

I take the nightwear from Emily so she can leave me alone. I put it on.

“Come on, let me take you.” Emily says after I put on the nightwear.

“Take me where?” I ask.

“Up to your room.” Emily tells me and I stare at her confused feeling very weak.

“I just came to m-”

“No, Marie, let me take you to your room.” Emily interrupts leading me somewhere.

I am barely conscious of anything after that. I just feel a very soft and cozy feel of a bed and I'm uncontrollably drifting to sleep like I was drunk and too heavy.

††††††

I wake up alarmed by how late I managed to sleep, I'm supposed to be out waiting for my boss to arrive. The strange room I'm in catches my attention but on second thought, the room is not so strange, I've been in here for my training sessions a few times.

I realize the sound that jerked me awake was the sound of a screaming woman somewhere in the building. My confused and wild eyes turn to access the room only to find a strange man, laying beside me.

“Ahhhhhhhh.” I scream my head off like a crazy lady. “Oh my God, who the f**k are you?” I screech scared out of my mind.

“How in the world am I here in a nightwear?” I ask no one in particular, royally freaking out.

The man beside me groans and turns towards me.

Holy freaking s**t, it's the rude man who almost hit me with his car.

“What the f**k?” His thick gruff morning voice groans out. “What's going on?” He whispers sleepily.

“What's going on!!? What did you do to me?” Before I can say anything futher, another strange woman barges into the room with Mrs. Leah peaking from behind her.

Oh my God.
