But she didn’t see any way out of that. So, she just had to play the waiting game and look for the right time to act.
Emmett was already by the staircase when he suddenly turned around and looked at Clara with a cold voice.
“Take her phone and all her communication devices. No using any of those! Let everyone know that if anyone dares to lend her a
phone, they’re on their own!”
Clara was taken aback, “Emmett, you can’t take my phone. I promise I won’t call Elio, okay?”
“Haha, you think I’d still trust you?” Emmett laughed coldly, “In my eyes, you’re no different than the Melendez family’s dog!”
Clara was silent.
After saying that, he vanished from Clara’s sight, not giving her any chance to argue, as if even hearing her talk was annoying!
Soon, Clara was taken to the floor where the servants lived.
The butler specifically put her in the farthest room, mocking her as he left, “Since you’re living in the servant’s room now, don’t
think you’re still Mrs. Melendez! I just saw that the laundry room is short-staffed. You can go there after you change into the
servant’s uniform, or else, no dinner for you!”
After saying that, the butler turned and left. Clara quickly spoke up, “Wait, can I have some paper and a pen?”x
“Why? You want to write a letter?”
Clara quickly shook her head, “No, I just...want to kill some time.”
The butler scoffed, “Kill time? Don’t worry, once you move into the servant’s room, you won’t have any free time. You’ll be too
busy to even sleep! If you have any other demands, I can have you working 24/7!”
After saying that, he left, laughing.
Clara looked at the simple bed in the room, and indescribable feelings welled up in her heart.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open again!
A skinny figure walked in. Upon seeing Clara, she froze and asked, “Mrs. Melendez?! What are you doing here?”
Hearing that, Clara didn’t know how to respond.
After a few seconds of silence, she awkwardly said, “Don’t call me Mrs. Melendez anymore. I’m just a servant now.”
“Huh? So, the butler was talking about you when he said someone was moving into my room to live with me?”
Clara nodded and sat on the bed, smiling, “Hello, I’m Clara.”
The maid quickly wiped her hands and shook hers, “I’m Rose, you can call me Rose If you need anything, just let me know. I’ll
help if I can.”
Seeing her still so formal, Clara said helplessly, “You don’t have to treat me like Mrs. Melendez anymore. Just think of me as
another servant!”
Rose seemed a little embarrassed and sighed, “I don’t know what happened between you and Mr. Melendez, but it’s really too
much for him to make you live in the servant’s room! When I used to work for you, I always thought you were a kind person. How
did it come to this? Is Mr. Melendez just another ungrateful rich kid? Just like all those in the TV dramas?”
Clara félt helpless but also touched.
This young girl, whom she had only met a few times and was talking to for the first time, was standing up for her. She must be a
kind person.
“That’s not it; he’s actually a good guy! And you don’t have to call me Mrs. Melendez all the time. Just think of me as a friend! I’m
not from a noble family or anything, and now I’m just another servant. You’re making me feel a little embarrassed.” Clara smiled
slightly, “The butler told me to go to the laundry room earlier. ! should get to work now.”
