Charles White has not returned since he left, Selina and the maid aunt stay at home for a few days, the mood can not say good, but not so much as to cry every day.
“Auntie, don’t prepare it, I can’t eat.”
Selina’s voice is very weak, the maid aunt look heartbroken, prepared a lot but she did not move a bite.
“Eat a little, not for your own sake but also think of the child, the child needs nutrition.”
This is a good intention, but Selina has to be more careful again.
So Charles White forced her like this, kept her prisoner, whether for her or the child.
It was for the sake of the child, right?
Selina did not speak again, looking out the window, blue sky and white clouds afternoon sunshine is warm.
But she hadn’t left here for a long time, like a prisoner.
“Ring, ring, ring…”
The landline rang, and the maid went to answer it, while saying and chanting, “It’s probably the young master calling.”
Selina’s heart tightened as she heard this, as if she was a bird in fear.
“Ah, Miss Selina is here.”
The maid aunt said while waving her hand towards Selina to come over and answer the phone.
“It’s Mrs. Grant calling.” The aunt handed her the microphone.
Hearing that it was Blanca Roach calling, Selina’s heart finally dropped.
“Blanca?”
“Come over, it’s a happy occasion.”
Through the phone, she could feel Blanca Roach’s festive atmosphere, and people could always be driven by her.
“What’s going on that you’re so happy about?”
“Elizabeth Harris and Peter Murray got their license, two days ago they were fighting like hell, who would have thought that they would become a couple in a blink of an eye.”
Blanca Roach’s words were exaggerated and true, and Selina sighed that some things were really unexpected.
“Come on, let’s have a meal together, there are many people and it’s lively.”
“I …” had to hesitate, because she was Charles White’s prisoner.
“Well, it’s a deal, I’ll have someone pick you up.”
Blanca Roach spoke fast, as if afraid she would refuse.
“Alice is crying, I’ll hang up now, you get ready.”
Without waiting for Selina to say anything, Blanca Roach dropped the phone quickly, leaving only a series of beeping sounds in the receiver.
Blanca Roach could not be denied, and Selina took the phone and shook her head.
“After a few days of boredom at home, Mrs. Grant told you to go if you want to, call the young master, he will not disagree.”
Auntie thought it was a good thing to let Selina go out to relieve her boredom, but did not know how difficult it was for Selina to call Charles White.
“Auntie, can you call him for me?”
“Sure.” Auntie then did it for her.
Selina stepped aside and listened to her aunt repeat what had just happened to Charles White, who hung up with a few smiles and a few “yeses”.
“The young master agreed to let you go and asked you to wear more clothes, it will be cool at night.”
Selina’s eyes flashed slightly, Charles White agreed to her going?
“Miss, get ready, I’ll inform the driver.”
Auntie is ready to go to call someone, Selina just reacted, and her face has a pleased look.
“Auntie no need, Blanca will have someone come to pick me up later.”
She thought that Charles White would keep her imprisoned forever, and that she would not be able to get out if he did not come back.
Looking out the window again she seemed to have hope that this wasn’t a cage she couldn’t get out of.
But Selina was too happy that Charles White had agreed to let her out because …
The reason why Charles White agreed to let her out was because she had just put one foot in the door of The Grant family, Selina wanted to take it back, nothing more, because Charles White was there.
Looking around at the people in the house, not many of them knew each other, but the only one she knew best was the one she found most obtrusive.
