Master Brian’s maid

The next morning, at the Lawrence Manor, a soft light through the thick fog shone into Jane’s cottage, waking her up with a drowsy sleep that still hadn’t been enough. Jane felt numb and aching all over her body and bruises on her neck, chest, lips and thighs when yesterday that bastard forcibly kissed Jane’s body. She tiredly opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings, thinking:

“Is it already morning? So fast.”

Jane still wanted to sleep a few more minutes with this tired body, but things still didn’t go as she wanted, Jane forced herself to wake up to work because that is the job that every servant here must obey. And no matter how hard she tried, the sleepiness held her back, so Jane floundered in bed a little longer. Until a door opened, a loud noise startled her awake. Mrs. Bonie looked at Jane lying on the bed with a questioning look, and loudly said:

“Wake up, lazy girl.”

Bonie said as she went to the window and pulled the curtain forcefully to let the light in to wake the little girl. While Jane was still struggling with her sleepiness, she sat up in bed. Jane rubbed her eyes, looked stupidly at Bonie and wondered:

“When will I have my freedom, when every day the master sends someone to supervise and lock the door carefully when I return to my room every evening.”

Bonie showed no interest, she replied calmly:

“I don’t know, that’s your life here. If you create trust in your master, he may be able to relax you more, not control you so tightly, and he may not ask someone to lock the door and lock you in this room.”

Jane took the maid’s dress from Mrs. Bonie’s hand as she motioned for her through a quick glance into the bathroom to shower. Jane nodded obediently and followed, she showered and cleaned herself, then put on clothes. Bonie continued to request Jane to sit on the bed so that she could apply medicine and bandage the wound on her neck.

She had no opinion on this, she thought it was a very normal thing when Brian sent someone to do it for her, maybe he wanted her to look clean herself and not die in this place. Jane feels like she’s more of a sex doll for him to satisfy her bestiality than an ordinary servant here.

She was sad thinking about it while being medicated by Mrs. Bonie. Wounds have always been painful for Jane ever since, because from childhood to adulthood, from the day she lived with Mr. Harvet’s house, there was never a time when she didn’t get beaten, there was never a time when she didn’t wound on body. But at least she had her own comfort and freedom, not like now even those two basic things, she still didn’t have.

After being medicated by Bonie, Jane was left alone for a while. Since Bonie’s mission is just that, come here to unlock it, check on Jane’s condition and dress her up. As for the rest, Jane can do it herself. And when Bonie finished her assigned work, she quickly gathered her medical potion and gave Jane a light reminder before leaving the room:

“Today, Mr. Perry, the master’s uncle is coming to visit him. Therefore, breakfast with visitors will be prepared by her. You should come to the kitchen early to get your jobs.”

Jane replied obediently:

“Yes madam.”

Bonie glanced at Jane for a moment, then left the room and moved somewhere else. While she was walking to the dressing table and gently dabbing some lipstick on her face. Jane uses a makeup brush to brush slowly, she looks at her beautiful self in the mirror with sad eyes, she thinks about the past, her current situation without avoiding negative thoughts and self-pity, just like that, tears from nowhere were rolling down her rosy cheeks ever since. She had unconsciously cried without realizing it, it seemed that they were tears of resignation and helplessness in front of everything around her.

Now she has no time to cry, she has to hurry to the kitchen to work, or else she will be punished. Jane has to keep herself fresh and optimistic. She told herself to try to be strong, not to be so soft anymore. And so Jane took a deep breath to calm down, she stomped a little powder on her face to cover up the old layers of powder that had been washed away by her tears.

After putting on her makeup and tying her hair up, she looked at herself in the mirror again and left the room. Jane knows that in this Lawrence mansion, her every move is being watched by cameras because Brian is a careful bastard, he won’t rest easy to let her go without any secret surveillance.

Not paying much attention to them, Jane walked down the hallway to the kitchen area quickly. As on the first day, she received her breakfast tray in the servant’s food stall then she would walk over to the drinks counter to make tea. As for the dishes, the chef has already taken care of them, he just hasn’t cooked them yet, when he had just arrived fifteen minutes ago. He will probably be very busy today because Mr. Perry has been here very early, some say that Perry went to Lawrence last night and had dinner with Mr. Wibul before that.

That makes the chef more enthusiastic, busy preparing breakfast. While cooking, do not disturb him, otherwise he will get angry and scream because someone affects his cooking mood. As for Jane, while she was making tea, she realized that the tea bag was half empty, not enough for both of them to drink. So she asked another servant standing near her:

“Hi, I need some more tea, my tea has run out. Do you know where they are?”

Tess was Chesa’s servant, and she said nonchalantly:

“In the back of the kitchen, there is a warehouse dedicated to storing long-lasting dry food, including the tea bags she was looking for. Go there and take it.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Jane thanked Tess, she hurried to the place Tess had directed, the barn was very large, it contained all the necessary provisions to use in Lawrence such as coffee, tea, corn, wheat and some black sesame , barley that she accidentally saw. And in the deeper is a place to store wine, the wines are aged in a traditional style for many years.

Jane also wanted to go there and take a closer look to satisfy her curiosity, but time did not allow, she needed to grab a tea bag and go quickly. So Jane went to the teapot to get it, which was a container near the window. She involuntarily saw outside the window, in the distance there was a narrow road. Jane thought for a moment and curiously went out to explore the place.

As she walked, she looked around on both sides, they were surrounded by large trees that obscured the view ahead, the more Jane went up, she saw a circle of fence carefully enclosed with a padlock and hook secure chain. Jane looked over to the other side of the fence and saw that in the distance there was a road large enough for cars to pass, but it was rather desolate and deserted. The young girl happily exclaimed as if she had discovered something:

“Ah, so this is another entrance of the mansion, it is connected to the outside. As long as I can break this chain and lock, I’ll be out of here.”

Jane was overjoyed when she discovered that, she crept around to see everything wandering around like a thief, then kept an eye to see if anyone was following her or not? Jane quickly removed some zinc from the fence to use as a unlocking tool for her. But no, it can’t be opened because the big lock is so strong, it’s not easy for Jane to crack it.

She tried to open it again, if it still didn’t work, she had to return because if she left for a long time, it would make others suspicious. Jane will temporarily keep it in her mind and will return to this place at night when everyone in the mansion is asleep.

Thinking so and deciding to act, Jane used her strength and ingenuity to open it but still there was no change, it did not open, it remained in its original state. That made Jane sigh helplessly, she had to return to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for her master Brian.
