"Mr Xavier McCarthy, your third fiancée is not very good" he mocked.
The man sitting on swiveling black chair, wore a white shirt which as a silver cufflinks dazzling, revealing a steel watch with a very manly taste. He was looking down at the document, his features deep and elegant in silhouette. After reading the page, he lightly ordered.
"Tomorrow, recover the funds given to Sweed suites." ”
" Yes Sir".
The butler whom he happens to be talking to, bowed his head and said respectfully. After saying that, he hesitated wanting to tell his boss something.
"Sir, forgive me for talking too much, I think this Miss Flair this time... It's not the same as the previous two. ” he finally said.
During the day, it was the housekeeper who brought Maria in. He then was watching her closel. He thinks she would react like the previous two when they walked in and saw the mansion they walked into but Maria, her face is white and her eyes are clear, she has no fascinated reaction when she first glance at the mansion and this made the housekeeper think her to be a likable and different girl.
From the Flair family house to the McCarthy's mansion, she said very little along the way, and the only few words she said were to ask the housekeeper what the third son of the McCarthy whom she's getting married to likes and what he doesn't like. It seems that she did not pay attention to the rumors outside. This gladdens the heart of the housekeeper.
Since the news that the two young masters had jointly spread, that the third son's ugly appearance and tyrannical personality had killed two women, since it was really difficult for the big master McCarthy to find his grandson a wife. So such woman as Maria, who was not afraid of the third son of the McCarthy and wanted to do her best to serve the third son of the was difficult to find with a lantern. This made the housekeeper to think Maria was worth a trial.
The man sitting on his chair, didn't think so.
"Even such a simple test she can't pass. So there's no need for any pity party here" he said bluntly.
The Butler was dumbfounded at how he said simple test as if it was really simple.
"Sir, is this a simple test? The outfit that the little young master made, even a full grown man in his prime would get frightened if he sees it, not to mention a little woman in her twenties. Women are fragile in nature. It's not a bad thing to be sacred" he defended.
The housekeeper sighed. Even him if he didn't know about that plan would have been scared to death with that mask. He was really unhappy because if things keep going this way, his master would end up being single for the rest of his life.
At this time, the doorbell rang downstairs.
Maria trembled and rang the doorbell at the door. She was really frightened and it was still in her body because her body still shook. Not because of the cold outside but because of what she saw. In fact, she ran out a long way. She didn't know how many distance she had covered before she came back to her senses.
Originally afraid of the dark and then she saw the monster that appeared out of nowhere the moment the light came up, and her heart was full of fear.
But now her fear already reduced. She felt that she should not run away. From the very beginning, she knew that Xavier McCarthy is an ugly monster with a psychological distortion after being burned.
Since she agreed to the marriage, she should keep her promise and should not flee from her responsibility. She's responsible for what she signed. She then sat down somewhere to think. She knew she can't return back home. It would be trouble there. So after a long hesitation, she finally returned to the McCarthy's mansion.
When she pressed the doorbell with a miserable white face, her heart was still beat wildly.
She didn't dare to face the person she's to be sleeping beside every night. She knew that she had to overcome it, because in the future, she would have to live with him for a long time.
The doorbell rang for a moment and the door opened. Unexpectedly, it wasn't her fiance or the butler or a servant that opened the doorfor her, but a handsome and indifferent little boy who looked only four or five years old that did.
If it weren't for the fact that there was only one villa in the neighborhood, Maria would definitely think that she had gone wrong into the wrong house.
The little boy took a look at Maria and turned into the living room. He pointed to the position of the sofa, and signaled to Maria to come sit down.
Maria pursed her lips, although she didn't know where this little boy came from, she knew that this little guy had no malice against her. For him to tell her to sit, he definitely knew she would be there.
She sat down on the couch in a huff, and the little boy poured her a cup of hot coffee without saying any word to her.
"Thank you." She said softly looking at the boy.
She held the cup of coff6, and her mood gradually calmed down. She could feel the hotness of the coffee in her hand and it then warmed her body. She didn't even think of the heater that was in the room.
The little boy glanced at her and walked over to the small cabinet beside him, rummaging through something.
"Wow."
On the railings on the second floor, the small bun that had previously frightened Maria widened his eyes and looked at the scene downstairs.
"She actually came back".
He didn't believe she would be back after what she saw. No one will ever see a monster and return to such place.
"Daddy, do you want me to scare her again?" He asked.
The tall and fierce man stood in the shadows, glanced at the small woman who had shrunk into a ball downstairs, and then looked at his son who was digging out the first aid box downstairs, and his brow frowned slightly.
"Don't." He replied the boy.
He knew anymore stunct can give the the dainty woman an heart stop and he wasn't ready for that. He had too much to do that to start running about over a strange lady.
Outsiders only know that Xavier McCarthy was involved in a fire accident five years ago, that was very severe. Being that they didn't see him appear in front of people, they concluded that the fire had destroyed him. None knew that he was reduced before it could destroy him as they think. Most that spoke with him on phone noticed the change in his character so they concluded that his personality became strange and fierce because of the incident. Only few people knows that after the fire five years ago, he had a pair of twin sons.
The eldest son, Liam who was just five minutes earlier, has always been cold and does not like to talk, and the second son, Lexy, is mischievous and eccentric.
