Chapter 117
Lynn looked not bad, but her reputation in the upper class was terrible. Chelsea went out to play poker today. She was a little late but found out that other poker friends who arrived early gathered together and gossiped about her.
The reason was that it was rumored that Lynn had done many bad things before. It was said that Lynn stole things during school, skipped classes and went to the Internet, lived a disorderly life, hooked up with boys, and so on.
A wealthy lady said that she had a child of a poor relative who went to school with Lynn. These things were true.
Chelsea couldn’t be angrier, although she was originally a wealthy and noble wife who could not be held high by those people, unexpectedly, behind the scenes, they thought she was pitiful and met such a daughter-in-law.
After ordering Lynn to do the cleaning, Chelsea went upstairs to sleep.
Lynn patted her cheek and stretched her arm. She had no choice but to do this as long as she stayed here. She grabbed the water from the bucket and started cleaning.
Time passed by minute by minute. In the huge villa, only Lynn’s figure was moving. The wind at night was supposed to be cool, but she was sweating profusely.
Exhausted, Lynn came downstairs with a bucket and wiped her forehead. Lynn glanced at the study, where the door was not closed, and there was a little light leaking out. Benson was still doing business inside.
Glancing at the study room, Lynn looked away, quickly wiped the floor, wiped the bottle, and dried it for more than an hour. Lynn finally finished cleaning, and the only lighted study room remained.
Benson didn’t even sleep!
Lynn couldn’t help but admire Benson a little. His body could endure.
Lynn knocked lightly at the door, then opened the door. Don’t blame her for interrupting his work. She had to finish her work quickly and go to bed. Now she could fall asleep even she was standing.
“Excuse me. I’ll come in to clean up.”
Mmm?
Lynn pushed the door open and found that Benson was not the only one inside. Opposite Benson sat a big black man.
The reason why it was said to be black was that this man was wearing black pants and a black T-shirt, his hair was quite dark, and his complexion was quite dark.
Because of the movement of pushing the door, Benson and the man both looked towards it. Lynn felt that these two glances were very sharp.
She felt as if she had done something wrong—the door should not have been open.
Lynn held the handle of the mop and raised her chest confidently. She didn’t do anything wrong. She hadn’t slept yet to clean the whole villa. Now that this study was the last one, there was no doubt that she had to come in and clean.
But as soon as she lifted her chest, Benson spoke sternly.
“There is no need to clean here. You can go and rest.”
Lynn’s mind froze for a second. The tone of Benson was impatient. She came in to clean, and he was annoyed?!
Lynn felt that it was simply inexplicable, and the kindness was like a donkey’s liver and lungs.
Then as he said, she wouldn’t clean. Anyway, he didn’t let her clean the study. She was relieved.
“Oh.”
Lynn let out a faint oh, and turned to carry the tools to leave, but the man in black in the room spoke casually.
“Is this your maid? Come in and clean it. Here is quite messy, and it should be cleaned up.”
There were two wine bottles lying under Francis’ seat, and there were also empty bottles and empty wine glasses on the table.
Lynn sniffed carefully, and smelled the smell of alcohol in the room. She stopped at the door, and it was difficult to make a decision. One said she came in to clean, and the other told her to go. Whether should she clean the study or not?
Benson tapped the keyboard, replying to an email. His face was expressionless, but the man kept staring at her.
Lynn still carried the tool and walked in. Benson’s ears were not deaf, so he should have acquiesced to the strange man’s proposal.
Lynn went first to pick up the empty wine bottles and put them in the trash bag.
But she found that this strange man kept staring at her every move, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Benson didn’t even look at her the whole time. Lynn’s mind was completely messed up. When did this strange man come?
When she came back to clean, she glanced at the study, where Benson was alone.
Lynn glanced at Francis again, and when she got closer, she realized that this man was a sturdy man. Although his face was tanned a little, he was actually quite handsome.
Because he was wearing a T-shirt, his arms were full of bulging muscles, but there was a long scary brown wound on his arm.
Lynn estimated that it should be twenty centimeters long.
Lynn looked absent-minded at Francis, and Benson frowned.
“Just work, don’t look around.”
When Benson said this, Lynn stopped looking at Francis immediately, and went to open the curtains in the room to let the fresh air in. She didn’t know how the two men could stay here without opening the windows for ventilation.
After opening the curtains, Lynn started mopping the floor.
Francis smiled and squinted his eyebrows, “Benson, I’m a little surprised that all the maids in your family are so good-looking. However, it is a pity to be a maid with such good looks, isn’t it?”
Benson leaned back in the chair behind him, put his hand on the armrest, and looked at Lynn, who was burying her head and mopping the floor. The other servants in the family looked old-fashioned in this maid uniform, but Lynn was wearing it well.
The vigor in her body cannot be concealed by any ugly cloth.
It was just why this woman was still doing these rough jobs. Chelsea really treated her as a servant!
Benson looked away from Lynn. “When did you become so shallow?”
“Haha, I envy you. I’m going to get moldy in that place where birds don’t shit, but it feels good to come out.”
Benson smiled lightly, “This is your choice, isn’t it? Do you regret it?”
After that, the conversation between the two stopped. Lynn dragged the floor and walked to the table between them. With her long index finger, she pointed at the wine glass and asked.
“Do you still want this wine glass?”
The dry wine glass had little wine left in it, and the wine bottle was empty, so it should be no more drinking.
Francis said, “Put it away.”
Lynn put away the wine glass, and a drop of wine fell on the table, looking very dazzling.
Benson’s papers were a mess on the desk. Lynn frowned. His study had never been so messy.
Lynn couldn’t stand the mess, so she took the initiative to organize the messy documents for Benson, and then brought a clean handkerchief, went around the table, and wiped the table carefully.
The two men just watched Lynn wipe the table. Lynn didn’t care, and didn’t bother to guess who this strange man was. She just wanted to go to bed after finishing her work.
Looking at the clean tabletop, Lynn was done, carrying something, and was about to call it quits and walked to the door of the study.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
She just walked to the door when Francis touched his stomach and frowned, and said to Benson.
“I haven’t eaten yet. Ask your chef to get me something to eat.”
Lynn paused subconsciously, turned around, and looked at Francis. She wondered, ‘now, he wanted to eat?’ The cook at home had long gone to bed.
“Everyone is asleep,” Benson said quietly.
“Not she.”
Benson pointed at Lynn, and then spoke in a slow, unhurried manner.
“I’m your guest. It’s right for you to invite me to have a meal, isn’t it? Besides, I’m a very easygoing person. A bowl of leftovers can be enough.”
Lynn also felt that this man should be living a rough life. With his skin color and wounds, he was definitely not someone who lived a fine life, but Lynn still felt that the coldness on his body was very heavy and he was a dangerous person.
After waiting for a few seconds, Benson knocked on the table and looked at Lynn at the door and said, “Make him something to eat.”
Lynn, who turned around out of curiosity, was assigned a new task again. Lynn had a big head. She was a little irritable, and had a bad tone.
“I’m not a cook.”
