Chapter 7

After lunch, Zoren and I went straight to the hotel. My face was wrinkled as I chased after him and tried to grab my two suitcases from his hand. He really didn't want to give it to me and even managed to fight. The other guests and my co-workers kept looking at us.

I even looked at Rina at the desk who was laughing and seemed to be thrilled while looking at us.

"You don't need to carry my things anymore. Don't you remember that I am your maid? I guess you forgot," I said when we entered the suite.

He dropped my things near the couch and then sat down. He leaned forward and immediately rested his head.

"I didn't forget that you're my maid. But it won't stop me from helping you and for not letting you get tired," he said with his eyes closed.

My lips parted as I looked at him. He's sweating and he doesn't seem to care about that.

I didn't pay attention to what he said and immediately went to my stuff.

"Where can I put it? Can it be in your room?"

"Sure."

I snorted and then immediately carried my stuff to his room. I just put it near the sofa. There is only one vacant seat there. I looked around his room. Never thought a man could be this tidy.

I noticed a basket full of laundry so I carried it outside.

"Why are you carrying that?" Zoren immediately got up from leaning and faced me with a frown.

My forehead also wrinkled. Why? What does he think I will do with his laundry?

"I'll do the laundry," I simply replied.

He stood up and took a few steps between us. I was surprised when he suddenly grabbed the basket from my hand.

"N-no need."

"Huh? What's unnecessary? That's my job so it's mine!" I grabbed the basket. But he didn't want to give it to me.

"Not anymore!" He pulled the basket back to him so that it almost carried me.

I was violently blown out of the air and now I was stunned when I faced him. "I said so!"

"No way! I-I'm not used to having someone else wash my clothes!"

I was immediately stunned. I am his maid, right? What else would I do if I didn't wash his clothes?

"Well, train yourself because I'll do it for you!" I shouted while pulling hard on the basket, causing it to slip out of his hand and into mine. It fell to the floor and its contents immediately scattered.

"That's it..." I said and immediately bent down to pick them up one by one. But I was immediately stunned when I picked up two pink briefs with a cartoon character in the middle.

My jaw dropped as I looked up at him.

"H-hello k-kitty?" I asked him while pointing to the cartoon character in the pink briefs.

My god! Is there anything like this sold in malls? Or the ukay-ukay? As if Zoren would wear briefs from ukay-ukay. His things are probably branded. Hmm! Where did he buy it?

"T-that's-"

I covered my mouth and immediately stopped laughing.

"Damn! Don't laugh!" he immediately snorted at me.

I snorted. "Am I laughing? Did you see me laughing?" I even taught myself.

"You're laughing! You're just good at hiding it!" he spat.

That's when I burst out laughing. He's so cute when fuming with anger.

"Are you gay?"

"Do I look gay?" he taught himself.

"Oh, why do you have something like that? That's impossible for your girls. Well, that's clearly a brief!" I said laughing.

He glared at me and violently snatched the basket from my hand.

"You're just my maid. I'm your boss. Maybe you're forgetting, Ms. Loyola," he said and then stood up and left the suite.

When the door was closed, that's when I finally caught my breath. I stopped it for a while because the way he was looking at me I could see his anger.

"You idiot, Melissa! Why did you forget that he's your boss? Why did you act like that in front of him?" I still blamed myself as I gently patted my head. I remember saying those words to him earlier.

I want to laughed out loud. He just told me back what I told him.

I stood up and decided to go to the kitchen and drink water. Because his suite is clean and it's not dusty, I can't see anything. I also went to his room to make his bed properly. But I didn't see any mess.

I gasped for air. "What am I going to do here?" I whispered.

It took a while before I was able to make the decision to just go out. I went to the kitchen and made myself a tester of the chef's new recipes.

"How was the first day as a personal maid, Melissa?" Favio sat next to me and leaned against the counter, he imitated my position. Now we are both looking at what the chef is cooking.

I looked at him and saw the smile plastered on his lips was insulting. I frowned.

"What's that smile?"

He pulled his head back slightly as both of his eyebrows rose. His smiling dog is still there.

"Why? What's wrong with my smile?"

"I don't like that smile of yours, Favio!"

"The whole hotel is talking about you now. You caught a big fish, Melissa!"

My eyebrows furrowed. "What big fish? I don't know how to fish!"

"Zoren Russell! Do you know how rich that man is?" groin of one of the waitresses, Gail. "Oh! Melissa, don't let go of that!" she added.

"You live as a princess by chance!" Favio said.

"I heard that he used power just now and he actually talked to Mr. Buenaventura just to make you his personal maid," Gail said.

"It only means one thing... He likes you!" said Flavio.

"Oh! When he flirts with you and asks you to be his wife. Take the bait immediately!" Gail said laughing.

I just shook my head as I looked at them laughing. I will never marry Zoren Russell! Even a girlfriend, no! I will make sure that I will not be among his girls.
