Chapter 56
The next morning was just like every other except that she had not slept a single wink and Agnes looked as cheerful as death. She rolled out of the bed sheets feeling even more groggy than she had expected that she would she could not believe what Charlie did last night then again it made sense all men were simply trash and it was her fault for thinking that he was a little bit better than others.
She hoped and then walked into the bathroom the timing to put that behind her and then to play some solid boundaries between her and the billionaire she was not his personal slut or anything like that they were business partners simple and short.
When she was done brushing her teeth she sneaked into the bathtub to take her bath, after what happened last night she felt like literally bathing in the shampoo how dare he just come in like that to do such a thing?
She decided that she could not wait another moment and then put on her bathroom and tied a towel around her wet hair, then she walked over to his bedroom and knocked on the door but there was no response she paused for a moment and knocked again and yet no response.
Was he still sleeping no that could not be possible, he went to work on almost every single wall working day unless he was so fatigued that he could not make it and he always wake up early to meet up with his schedule so he should have been rousing up for over hour at least.
Finally fed up of waiting for him to open the door he just began to work on the doorknob to see that it could open up for her but it remained in a fixed position as if it had been locked, that was another strange thing because you Charlie Jones you did not lock his door he often forgot to or maybe just wanted to keep it open in case he will go down at night for a snack, even though she was not really dating him she had decided earlier to keep an eye on him and observe his habits and that seems to pay off, now all she needed to do was just open up the door or well wake him up to open up the door.
He had probably blocked it so that she would not confront him that money but she was not going to give up that easily they were going to have that talk whether he liked it or not.
“don't you have anything better to do this early in the morning than to disturb my master?"
At least looked over her shoulder to see the butler standing there looking down at her as usual but figuratively and literally even despite all the time that she had stayed there he was still very bitter and cold towards her as if she was the cause of all problems that his master ever faced when she was actually trying to help him fix one, but she was not surprised he was just one of the many people who saw her as nothing but a gold digger who has jumped from one billionaire's bed to another.
"Well it's not like I want to disturb him this early in the morning either but there is something urgent that I need to discuss with your master right this minute...."
She said to him calmly not wanting to add to the fury that she already had burning in her heart, but the butler failed to notice that this was not the same woman who calmly waved off his mean remarks.
"I doubt that there is anything that you have to tell my master that will be classified under urgent so why don't you at least get yourself properly dressed before you make a fool of yourself...."
She crossed her arms and face them squarely ready to give him a piece of my mind because she had had less than enough to reason tolerate his nonsense, he was basically nothing more than a dignified servant why she was practically against in the house even so he had no right to be treating her as if she was some kind of paid prostitute that was living indoors with them.
” you know what sir if there is something you want to tell me I feel like you should try to stop beating around the bush and just face me directly and see what you want to say because I'm getting tired of how you keep running around me trying to take verbal punches at me..."
For the first time since she met him she could almost swear for a moment that she saw what resembled a smile at the corner of his lips for a single second but it did not last time as quickly wiped away with a frown, and it was gone before it even fully came feeling fatigued and arguing with a man who was just glaring out her now and not saying anything, the young divorcee wondered if it would not be better to just go back to her room.
But she knew that if she took one single step towards her room right now she will be proving to the butler that he could step all over her and ignore her wishes whenever he wanted.
Determined to show that she was not going to be his personal doormat she turned over her idea of going away at that moment and stood still glaring at him back.
“I don't know if old age is bothering you so bad that you can't hear clearly so let me repeat myself for you I'm here to see your master and it's for an urgent
discussion that cannot be shifted..."
He looked at her for the longest time a little shocked that she had not stepped back then when it seems like he would not say anything again his lips moved and he said one word that sent her heart spiralling.
"Airport..."
