The Mafia And Escape Games

CHAPTER 4: Warm Heart

Now Matthew carefully observed Maris' wounds. Her neck was almost pinched by William, so red marks appeared on her neck.

Maris, after she was able to breathe again, just looked at him silently, making no attempt to answer. But that's not why Matthew was upset with her. He just sighed and said softly to Maris:

“Don't be afraid! He's just a little hot-tempered. Your neck is all red and swollen, if you don't apply for the medicine it will only get worse, little girl!"

Then Matthew helped her to a nearby chair, gently helped her sit down, and ran to find some medicine for her.

A moment later he returned, carrying a small medical box in his hand. Because of the "work nature" of these family members, emergency first aid equipment is always fully equipped.

Matthew slowly applied the medicine to her neck. His hand was trying to be as gentle as possible so as not to hurt her. From Maris' side, the man in front of him was really handsome. Curly lashes, brown eyes, and a high nose.

But it's just that to other girls, as for Maris, he has nothing to make her pay attention.

"Finish! You take this medicine. If you apply it every day, it won't hurt anymore!"

“Um.”

Maris only replied with a brief, somewhat impolite word. On the contrary, Matthew only laughed, not meaning to rebuke her.

“You don't want to say anything to me? For example, thank you.”

Matthew was about to reach out and pat her head, but Maris quickly dodged his hand, a look of displeasure on his face.

“Okay, no more teasing you. Do your job, I have to go. It's been a busy day today.”

He sighed softly and stood up to leave. Before leaving, he turned around and waved goodbye to her.

Perhaps both of them didn't know, there was always a pair of eyes silently watching them from afar. That person's eyes were filled with indignation as he stared at Maris.

Matthew is a warm person, he always stands up for the weak and poor. Even with servants in the house, he was always friendly, talking to them. But being considerate enough to apply for medicine like that is probably only Maris.

After Matthew was gone, Maris slowly got up and continued her work. Only because of bad luck, she still hasn't finished her job. Her cleaning speed became more urgent, she didn't want to mess with those people. It's not that she's afraid, she just doesn't want to get involved with other people.

It wasn't until the evening that she finally finished her work. At the same time, Emmy also ran to find her.

“Are you done yet? Let's go back together! It's time to eat. My stomach has been protesting ever since!"

As soon as Emmy saw Maris, she began to whine, rubbing her small belly as she spoke.

It seemed that she saw the red mark on Maris' neck, so she showed concern:

“Maris, what's wrong with your neck? Why are you so red? Who bullied you?

Emmy said as she twirled Maris' shoulder blades. It wasn't until Maris was annoyed that she pushed her away that Emmy stopped.

“It's bad luck.”

Knowing Maris's dislike of talking, Emmy just kept quiet and didn't ask anything more. The two girls cleaned up together and quickly returned to the servants' quarters in the house.

On the way back, while passing through the area connected to the B block, Maris glanced over there. The place was heavily guarded, separated by a long corridor, so she couldn't see what was behind that long corridor. Standing outside were four guards with very rough and tall appearances.

Standing outside were four guards with very rough and tall appearances.

As she passed by this place, Emmy gently grabbed Maris's hand and tried to pull her away as quickly as possible. It seems that Emmy is very afraid of this place.

After a while, they finally reached their place of residence. The servants in the mansion were all gathered there as well.

The sound of the girls whispering as if they were discussing something.

“Was she really brought to the B-zone by Laura? I heard that place is really scary.”

"That's right! I've been working here for over a year now. Most of the people who come to the B-zone never come back. No one knows where they are either!”

“She is so stupid. She angered Laura, and anyone who dares to upset Laura has a terrible end.”

Roughly speaking, there was a maid who accidentally angered the housekeeper, Laura, then she was taken to clean up in the B- zone. But until the evening after everyone had gathered home, she still did not see her return. Looks like everyone is worried about her.

At that moment, Laura appeared. She entered the room, glaring at the servants in front of her. This is their last duty of work. After completing the assigned work, everyone must come here to attend before seven in the evening. This rule is in place to prevent them from running away or not being able to complete the work before the specified time.

Those who do not comply will receive the appropriate punishment.

After checking, a sufficient number of girls were allowed to return to their resting place.

Maris' first day in this villa went by like that. Even though "some unlucky things" happened, it was still good for her. Though if it weren't for Matthew she would have died on the first day.

While the others were resting, Maris wandered around the mansion. She tries to remember the direction of important places, especially those "taboo" places. It can be said that this villa area is like a maze. The large area has many falls and long corridors interlaced with each other.

After a while of sightseeing, she returned to her room, covered herself with a blanket, and tried to go to bed early.

After a long sleep, Maris woke up in the early hours of the morning. She changed into the maid's clothes and began to listen to the butler divide the work. Her and Emmy's work today is to prepare breakfast for the masters.
