CHAPTER 51

Bethel opened her eyes to the first taste of the dawn. She wasn't herself, she felt like a new person entirely with the sudden change in her body system. Her throat felt bitter, she felt like throwing up, she felt like eating tamarind rice, she felt like eating strawberry cake when she is never a fan of it.

This new change in her body system made her curious. Hopefully she would go see the doctor later in the day.

She rushed into the bathroom the moment she felt a strange movement in her bowel, the force of the vomit reached her throat so quick and she throw it out into the toilet base. Her legs turned to water. She slammed on the floor, holding the toilet seat as she continue throwing up.

The vomiting ceased and she felt light headed. She washed her mouth and flushed everywhere properly.

"What is wrong with me?" She asked herself while looking at her reflection in the mirror.

She washed her face again and left the washroom to Angel's room. The little girl was still sleeping.

Bethel tapped her gently. She needs to prepare her for school..

"Baby"

Angel's lid fluttered open. She stretched her hands out. Bethel smiled and pick her up in her arms.

"Hope your enjoyed your day, yesterday?" Bethel asked.

"Good morning" Angel greeted, Bethel out her down to her feet.

"Prayers" Angel said.

"I almost forgot" Bethel replied and knelt beside her. Angel said little prayers and Bethel chorused "Amen".

"Gist me about yesterday" Bethel said, excited to hear what she has to say. Harry had requested her to come along but she couldn't considering the fact that Mrs Crown doesn't like her. She need no one to tell her, she can see it in her expression.

Harry's sisters are worse towards her.

"My day was fun. My dad took me to Paris" Angel chuckled. She ran to take her iPad and shower Bethel the pictures of the places they went.

"Wow! This is beautiful" Bethel's eyes glistened, "I'm glad you enjoyed your day" she added swiping the iPad screen for more pictures.

"I need to go greet granny in her room" Angel said. Bethel nodded and watch her skid away. It didn't take long before she returns.

Bethel got her ready for school. She had her bath and got dressed as well. She also have to meet her Aunt that morning. Aunt Indu.

While Angel was having her breakfast in the dinning area, Bethel walked to the kitchen with her backpack. She meet Isabella there.

"Good morning, Bella" Bethel greeted

Isabella smiled,"Bethel, what's up? You didn't show up in yesterday's celebration?" She asked.

"I was busy in my room" Bethel gave flimsy excuse for not attending the party thrown in the living room for Angel's birthday party.

"Ohh you mean you were busy sewing dressing for your clients?" Isabella asked.

"Exactly" Bethel said almost immediately. She took Angel's backpack after stocking it up with the necessary things.

Angel was done having breakfast already.

"Come on" Bethel said immediately she heard footsteps of Mrs Crown coming downstairs. She doesn't know why she gets scared with the woman's presence.

"Yeah" Angel said and got out of the dinning chair.

"Why are you dressed like this on a Monday morning?" Mrs Crown's voice stopped Bethel. Bethel was forced to turn. Is she talking to her or someone else?

"You're a nanny, why are you dressed like you are the woman of this house?" Mrs Crown asked Bethel sternly.

Bethel glanced at what she wore. There's absolutely nothing wrong with her dress. She had on a long gown. Bethel sighed. Maybe she meant she is not looking like a nanny.

Angel looked at her nanny then back to her granny.

"All these nannies are like leopard! They can never change their spot. When you know you're a nanny, why can't you dress like one!" Mrs Crown shouted. Bethel blinked her lashes.

"I'm sorry ma'am. I will just go change" Bethel replied simply.

She went to change immediately before taking Angel to school. She had changed into a long gown with no designs.

She didn't bother returning to the mansion, she went to the place in the address sent to her and waited patiently, hoping one of her aunt will show up.

When no one showed up in the space of five hours, she left the place.

•••••••••••••••

She returned back to the mansion and went straight to her workshop to get busy with something, the rest of the bodyguards Xavier and Mark stayed with her to keep her company.

She was quiet friendly with them.

They were all in her workshop and she was packing the dresses she made.

She's done with this set of order and she's gonna accept the next set once she delivers this.

The bodyguards helped her seal it while she packed it.

They've become great friends and they always enjoy their time together.

They talk about lots of things, their childhood, their parents, partners, work. There's never a dull moment with them.

Joel, Cory, Xavier and then Mark, Bethel actually forced them to stop being so uptight and rigid, they're enjoying it now .

"What! What's going on here?" They heard and they all turned to the door..

Mrs Crown stood there looking lost, she was strolling in her son's garden when she heard voices and she was so shocked to see that the flower room has been transformed.

She has not been to the garden since she arrived.

And she knows quite well that this is Harry's private garden, no employee is allowed in here.

The bodyguards bowed in greetings.

"Don't give me that look! Explain what this is about?" Mrs Crown asked.

"T.. th.. This is my workshop" Bethel said slowly, staring at her feet.

"You're joking right?" Mrs Crown laughed even though what Bethel said was clearly true.

There's a sewing machine, mannequin, threads, scissors, clothes materials...

"What gave you the audacity to use this place as your workshop?" Mrs Crown asked angrily.

"Harry. Mr Harry.." Bethel said.

"Oh.. my.. God!" Mrs Crown said before walking away. She's going to call Harry.

•••••••••••••••

"Emma, you won't believe this" Mrs Crown walked into Emma's room, who was busy with a bunch of files.

"What?" Emma sat up on the bed.

"Angel's nanny has a workshop in Harry's garden!"

"What!" Evelyn exclaimed, coming in

"Yeah, the flower room was transformed into a workshop for her!"

"She must have forced brother to do it" Evelyn got on her feet and slipped her feet into her slippers.

"I think she enchanted brother" Emma said.

"Really?"

"Yes, he now does things he normally won't do"

"You're right Emma! He never allows any employee in the dining room but he allowed her! even after i complained" Mrs Crown said.

"She shouldn't be in this house anymore" Emma said, walking out of her room.

Mrs Crown followed her.

"She shouldn't be in this house anymore" Allysia said, walking out of her room.

Mrs Marshall followed her.

*

"Where's Bethel?" Emma asked Jim one of the bodyguards in the mansion.

"She left to deliver her goods" He replied

"Without taking care of Angel?" Mrs Crown asked.

"She would. She would go pick her up from school after delivering her goods" Jim said.

"Brother gave her the many chance to do whatever she wants" Emma said and Mrs Crown nodded in agreement..

"I need to go check out the workshop" Evelyn headed to Harry's garden.

**

"I'm sure she didn't spend a dime to buy those things in that workshop, they are way too expensive for someone like her to afford" Emma sat in the living room with Mrs Crown.

They were both waiting for Bethel to be back while Sylvia the cook was in the kitchen making lunch

Bethel sure has some explanation to do.
