I'm Not Cinderella

Chapter 1:  America's autumn weather was clear and cool. All the streets and alleys were filled, and the atmosphere became pleasant and gentle. Contrary to the atmosphere outside, the inside of this hospital was an atmosphere of absolute silence. This was a private hospital, an aristocratic hospital, only people with a lot of money or high-ranking officials could come here. And this place was an area reserved for patients with extremely noble status, so whether it was a nurse or a doctor passing by, they must try not to make a sound. If the patient complained in only one sentence, their life was considered to be over. In the first room, a girl lay on a hospital bed. Her face was pale. She stayed in a large room with the most modern equipment and a spacious and airy space, but the only thing missing was the visitor. Angelina opened her eyes. In front of her eyes was a cold white. Her aching body made her wince. Her bulging belly was now completely flat, but the pain from her lower body made her groan and grit her teeth. “Daniel…..Daniel…” She closed her eyes and called out that man's name amid the terrible pain. Her hand raised and waved, like a person falling into the water trying to find a piece of wood to cling to.  Finally, someone took her hand, but the second time she opened her eyes, the joy she had not yet enjoyed turned into a loss to infinity. “Daniel…” She immediately realized her mistake “…is it you?” "That's right, Angelina, it's me." The person who was gently holding her hand was the housekeeper, who always took over for Daniel to manage everything big and small at home. His personality was very careful, he was also a very wise person and did not ask much about Boss's private affairs, so he was very trusted by Daniel. The housekeeper was already in middle age, but his carefulness and thoughtfulness made people feel that he was older than his actual age. "Daniel…Where's Daniel?" She tried to say, “Isn't he coming? Does he know I've given birth?"  The housekeeper followed Daniel for many years. Even if he lied, his face would not change, but the responsibility of a housekeeper was to replace the Boss to solve unnecessary problems. “Don't worry, Angelina. The boss will be here immediately.” The housekeeper, Chris gently took her hand and smiled. He really didn't lie to Angelina. This was Daniel's first child, even if he found another great substitute for Maria, Angelina was already pregnant. Because Angelina was too young to easily have an abortion, and the abortion was easy to affect her life, Daniel also agreed to let her continue to give birth to this child. "Just a child, I don't lack any money to feed him." This was Daniel's only sentence after knowing that Angelina had decided to have a baby. After that, he did not mention this anymore. From that, everything was left to the housekeeper to handle. In the past few months, no matter how stupid she was, she could feel his coldness. "The baby was born smoothly. Congratulations, Angelina." "When is Daniel coming?" Angelina's voice carried despair. The faith in her heart was slowly running out. She hadn't seen Daniel for several months. Although the housekeeper didn't say anything, she had overheard the stories of the servants in the garden, she knew that Daniel had found another perfect substitute who would continue to replace her and become Maria's substitute. She also knew the reason for his coldness. Recently, her body had also suddenly grown taller, her body had also become more voluminous, her face had also begun to change, more and more, she was not like her dead sister, Maria. She kept praying to God, she hoped she could keep the same shape and face as before, but now… Maybe God didn't hear her prayer…or God didn't want her to stay with Daniel anymore. When she was pregnant with Daniel's child, he didn't have the slightest interest in her. Because she was pregnant and couldn't make love to him, Daniel didn't come to her anymore. While she was sad to tears, the housekeeper was extremely calm, “Boss will be on the next plane. You should still rest a bit. Boss will come to visit you after seeing the baby." Both tired and suffering from postpartum pain, and with the housekeeper's assurance, Angelina could close her eyes and rest for a while. Five minutes later, the housekeeper heard a strange tremor. He walked out of the hospital room, went straight to the hospital, and greeted the Boss. From beginning to the end, Daniel still kept a cold face. The housekeeper bowed in greeting and he couldn't help opening his mouth to say, "Where's the child? Who does he look like? Like Maria?" The housekeeper had met the child, so he honestly replied, "Boss, the child is very much like you, not like Angelina or Maria at all." Daniel's face suddenly froze. He immediately looked at the housekeeper, "What did you say?" The housekeeper continued, "The child really looks like you, Boss." Daniel was silent for thirty seconds, then let out a cynical statement, “You shouldn't have called me here. What a waste of time!” “Boss, but that is your first child. Come and see him for a moment." “It doesn't matter, he doesn't look like Maria at all. This was originally my intention when Angelina was pregnant, you know.” After saying these two sentences, Daniel did not want to say more. A child unlike Maria, he didn't want to waste time with him at all. He turned and walked out of the hospital. The housekeeper in the back sighed. He could only walk back into that room and continue to wait for Angelina to wake up. Since Angelina woke up, the housekeeper has been by her side to take care of her. And Daniel never once set foot to visit her.
