Day Seven…

~~*****~~

Nathan's words were like shooting arrows that were hitting Adelaida right into her heart. She thought Nathan would side with her but she was mistaken.

He even questioned her actions. And now, he was telling her to leave! Of course, she wouldn't do that. It would be too embarrassing to admit defeat in front of Abigail.

Nathan's words made her reflect on her mistakes. She shouldn't have challenged Nathan's authority. It was a wrong move. She shouldn't have listened to Veronica's words.

She brought this upon herself. She had just offended Nathan. And with Old Man Xu's silence, she could tell that he would not interfere with his son's decision.

"I'm sorry, Master Nathan! Please forgive me for my wrong judgment. Of course, I will never leave. I will continue serving you and this family. Please forgive me, Master." Adelaida bowed her head as she continued apologizing to Nathan.

To give special consideration to the old woman who served their family for a long time, Nathan didn't dwell further on this issue. He also had important things to do so he ended the call briefly.

When the call ended, the living room was engulfed again with silence. Adelaida felt so awkward. She couldn't look at Abigail. She was so embarrassed to be scolded in front of this woman.

Old Man Xu took a deep sigh before giving his order. "Clean this mess. I don't want to see these broken pieces here."

Butler Li and Adelaida both nodded their heads as a response to the Patriarch.

"And call them back here now. If they won't appear in five minutes, they will be considered… FIRED!"

Old Man Xu was referring to the other maids, helpers, and assistant cooks who didn't report today– Those people who joined the 'Strike'.

Head Mead Adelaida immediately picked up her phone to inform everyone to return to the mansion as soon as possible. Everything went wrong. The result didn't go according to their plan.

Her only consolation was that Abigail created a bad impression from Old Man Xu after breaking the century-aged vase family heirloom. Furthermore, Nathan declared that he would deal with Abigail by himself.

Meanwhile, Old Man Xu pulled his grandson's hand as they headed to the kitchen. He ignored Abigail's presence as he was still upset about the incident.

Little Ethan could only follow his grandpa. He knew how sensitive his old man was when it came to their family heirloom. He was the kind of man who treasured and valued such things so much.

He loved to collect Antiques and other artwork that has a high value because of its considerable age. So it also broke his heart to see one of these items shattered before his eyes.

Abigail could only sigh deeply. She had to pacify the old man and gain his favor. She needed to be on his good side. This old man was the father of the devil whom she was trying to win affection with.

She didn't want Old Man Xu to become a hindrance to her plan. She would definitely need Ethan's help to do that. But the question is… 'How she will be able to make up for her mistake?'

Abigail let out another deep breath while watching Butler Li picking up the broken pieces of the antique vase. Then Nathan's gorgeous face flashed in her mind.

'Nathan… is like this broken vase. When I killed his beloved woman, it will be hard for me to put the pieces back together. His heart… was like these broken pieces…' Abigail thought to herself. For some unknown reason, she felt a tinge deep inside her heart but she tried to ignore it.

Was she truly wrong when she decided to accept that mission? She had to admit that she was so full of herself and arrogant when she thought of going against the Supreme Leader of Syphiruz Mafia who was also called the Devil incarnate.

Abigail was still lost in her thoughts when Ethan came back, holding her hand. She kneeled on one knee so that her eyes would be at the same level as his.

Ethan gave her a comforting smile as if he was telling her that everything would be fine. His grandpa's anger would pass and they could still become friends.

"Miss Abi, this is the key to my playroom. You can stay there and mingle with my friends to avoid my Grandpa. I'm sorry if he was rude to you. He is still in a bad mood. But, please don't be in low spirits just because of this incident. My grandpa is so sweet and cool. You and him will probably get along.' Little Ethan's small hand gently patted Abigail's shoulder.

Abigail ruffled Ethan's hair before pinching his adorable nose. He was like a guardian angel to her. He could always lift her mood and he was always there to support her.

If Nathan was the coldest guy she had ever met, on the contrary, Ethan, his son, was the sweetest boy she had ever met. Now, she started to feel the guilt for killing her mother.

'I have to be good to him… and protect him. This is the least I can do to pay for my sin. I was the one who took away his opportunity to experience a mother's love.' Abigail glanced at Ethan with complicated emotions in her eyes.

'You can be a mother to him!' Her alter ego spoke from the back of her mind.

"Little fella, go back to your grandfather now before he gets jealous of me. He might think that I'm stealing you away from him." Abigail let out a soft giggle before standing up. She already accepted the key to Ethan's playroom.

Ethan just bobbed his head while wearing a wide smile on his charming face. He said goodbye to Abigail. But before that, he ensured that his robotic friends would entertain Abigail while she was in his playroom.

When Ethan left, Abigail went upstairs to see Ethan's playroom. She also needed to cool down as Head Maid Adelaida challenged her patience. She almost forgot that she was in front of the Patriarch and Ethan. If not, she would become more ruthless and rude toward her.

She was ascending the stairs when she heard Butler Li's voice, calling her.

"Miss Abi!"

She glanced in his direction and saw his broad smile. He even raised his two thumbs telling her that she did a good job.

Abigail could only shake her head, but there was a small smile on her face. Butler Li looked like her fan… her number one supporter! (Aside from Ethan)

A few seconds later, Abigail finally reached Ethan's playroom. It was attached to his bedroom. She used the key to open the steel door.

Abigail was surprised when a loud popping noise echoed inside the room, followed by the falling of confetti.

Abigail was at a loss for words, blinking her eyes at the two robots and one hologram who were standing before her.

"Welcome, Miss Abi to our humble home. We are so glad to finally meet you!" The three of them spoke in unison.

Soon, the two robots stepped to the side, making a way for her. Abigail's jaw dropped when she saw the two robots rolled out the red carpet for her to pass through.
