Chapter 17

Do I need to be upset or not? It's my fault; the egg's salt is to blame. I nearly missed the fact that I used too much salt.

Sir Xander raised one hand as if to stop me as I said, "I'm sorry Sir Xander, I'll just cook for you again."

He motioned toward the house's exit door and said, "Leave."

Is he asking me to leave? Oh, his mother hired me, therefore Mrs. Ferrer is the only one who has the right to fire me.

I laughed and mimicked him, "Fine but you go first."

He didn't say a word to me; he simply kept staring at me in the kitchen.

He stopped eating. "Why? Tsk, now that you're huge again, you can be who you really are. But?" I said. I look after Ferrer's son! I'm like his mother then, hayst. Since Sir Xander's chamber was unlocked, I was able to enter freely, but when I noticed that he was no longer sporting a t-shirt, my eyes widened.

I started to add, "There's adobo, so please eat it there Sir Xander, because that adobo was so wonderful I promise- wait, I told you to eat it--" but it shoved me out of the room and loudly broke down the door.

I immediately knock and ask, "Sir?" I simply crossed my arms and peered at his room's door. Or should I forget it? I don't know hayst!

When he extended his hand to the door, he noticed that something was hanging from the doorknob.

My voice is weakening as I say, "What do not disturb?! Sir! Sir Xander! I'll really get lost here if you don't eat!"

I took a seat and leaned against the door. I groaned and added, "I'm not actually leaving here until you get out of there."

A short while later, all was quiet. Even though I'm tired, I can't sleep since I'm still standing here leaning on the door.

I was indeed sleeping, but I was unaware of it.

When I opened my eyes, I was already lying down. I frowned as I looked around, remembering that the door was already open from when I was still in this location. I stood up and gripped my head behind me because it had started to hurt.

Where is that hardheaded man? He's not in his room here. I simply got up and shut the door after hearing a crash in the kitchen.

I previously observed Sir Xander sitting and consuming the prepared food. It abruptly stopped sucking as I was looking at him.

I was excited to inquire, "Is it delicious?" But after he snorted once more, he went.

He's awful, ah! Like him, Mrs. Ferrer is not serious and didn't notice me.

I simply shrugged and walked over to the table, but I couldn't help but be shocked that the dish vanished. I clutched my head and exclaimed, "Eh? Why is this empty? Did he eat it all? Everything?!"

Please don't appear in me Sir Xander because I get hot-headed when I'm hungry and you might not see the sun! I haven't yet eaten, and he hasn't even gone far!

Why the hell not? Before, I was quite hungry, but I patiently waited for him. He didn't seem to want to eat earlier, but now that he does, he finishes it all since he's tired! He earlier threw away the egg I had prepared there, so I believe he loved my cooking this time. It's salty, Elyse, who else is going to eat it?

What can I eat right now? I thought to myself. I checked the time on my cellphone when I initially pulled it out of my pocket; it was almost two in the afternoon.

When I received a text message earlier, I immediately furrowed my brows. Only the number was listed when I glanced at it, so I continued reading.

Unknown number: I miss you

"What the heck, who is this, and what have I missed?!"

I suddenly turned around and wondered how it had my phone number.

What is that? I'm hungry!

After drinking a glass of water, I just fried an egg and ate it.

If I didn't have a load, I would have loved to text Mindy, but I have Facebook, right? Why did I only consider that now?

How long have I been away from Facebook? I can't recall if Mindy and I are Facebook friends. I was a little taken aback when my phone started to ring out of the blue.

I should have been annoyed, but since it was Mindy, I grinned.

"Hello, Mindy!"

[Elyse,]

Because there were hints of melancholy in its voice, I worriedly questioned, "Oh, why? Did something happen?"

[Elyse, Elizabeth is...] She seems hesitant to tell me this, ummm.

I tremble and ask, "Why? What happened to my child?!" I hope nothing awful occurred to my kid, so please don't...

[S-She got hit by a car earlier.] and I nearly collapsed because my knees seized up.
