Chapter 3 From Slave to Servant

Sound of rain...

Rain!

Oh wow...

Torrential...

White...

Into the strong taste of blood...

2 am.

The sound of raindrops falling on the hallway floor. The corridor is wide and long... it's gloomy and somewhere like the smell of fresh blood.

Along the two sides of a long corridor like a hell, tunnel is two rows of bodyguards wearing black suits and black glasses. Laura's footsteps slowly followed Brian's close bodyguard, she didn't know if she did the right thing or not, but first, she got rid of the scum and didn't have to go back to that ragged slum. The sight of the head's body on fire made her shiver, Brian could be a great danger but at least he saved her. The days that followed Laura could not have imagined. The light bulb lights up with each person's footsteps, the quiet space suddenly rings a bell. At the end of the corridor is a large door.

The door of the door slowly opened, and behind were two rows of servants, a long line bowing in turn.

Laura with her blonde hair wet from the rain, her white dress gliding on the wet ground, had to shiver from the cold, her eyes glittered with guilt, she looked down, shyly hiding behind the bodyguard who had brought her. this.

"Gal, what's wrong?" – The housekeeper with the pajamas that had not yet changed, quickly put on an ao dai outside and walked over to ask the bodyguard's name.

"She'll be here from now on, let's make arrangements. That is Sir Brian's will." – Gal seriously announced.

"Ohh...is that so?" – Jade (butler) was not surprised because she had heard that the boss had saved a girl before but still asked politely.

The servants behind were whispering, and everyone looked up at Laura with curiosity and a little bit of annoyance.

"Okay. Let me." Jade looked at Laura from top to bottom, then ordered someone to bring her a servant's uniform.

Gal completed the task Brian gave him for today, he turned to leave the service area. His figure gradually disappeared behind the door that was slowly closing and that was when a painful "Slap" sounded. Laura was hit by a sudden slap, her weak legs couldn't support herself, and she sat down.

"What sewer did this brat come from? Don't think that being saved by the master himself will give you special privileges. From now on, know yourself and your fate." Jade threw the servant's clothes straight at Laura, her eyes burning with anger.

Everyone went back to the bedroom leaving Laura alone with her clothes on the ground. She didn't know how she was going to live in this cold and creepy place, but maybe it was better here than in that wet, dilapidated slum. Laura remembered Brian's handsome but cold, emotionless face when he stopped to save her. In her head, only the thoughts "Can I see that person again? Who is that person?"

Laura didn't know what she was going to do next when a girl about the same age as her from the servants came back.

"Are you OK?" The little girl helped Laura up.

Laura looked bewilderedly at the wary girl, here she couldn't trust anyone so easily.

"Hey! Instead of looking at me with those innocent eyes, why don't you open your mouth to talk?" – she sensed Laura's distance.

"I'm Anthea, Jade said you'll be sharing a bed with me from now on, so let's make friends." – Anthea is excited.

"Ah, you have to shower and change clothes first, you're all wet. Let's go! I'll show you the way to the restroom."

Laura followed Anthea, the toilet seemed quite far away, I don't know what time it was, but it was still not morning. Laura decided to keep her distance from everyone here until she fully understood the current situation including Anthea.

"So what is your name? Why keep quiet? You can't speak or do you hate me? Huh?"

Anthea let out a dejected sigh, all the way like that she couldn't get Laura's mouth open. Having reached the servant's bathing area, Anthea turned on the electric switch, and all the bathrooms were lit. Laura slowly walked in front of a random bathroom that had just opened and was about to enter, but she turned her head to speak to Anthea and then entered.

"My name is Laura."

Anthea was stopped by the sound of the voice, the light feeling like a stream of water mixed with an invisible carelessness and as smooth as the sound of an organ.

Quiet, clear, light as morning dew. The voice made Anthea's heart stop for a beat. The little girl stood outside waiting for Laura to bathe, but she couldn't stop exclaiming in her heart.

Finally, Laura came out of the bathroom, changed into a maid's clothes, and the two of them returned to the bedroom together. Anthea leaned closer to Laura, her fingers brushing her bangs to the side, watching.

"Your eyes are captivating, your hair is long like waves, and your voice is so soothing. You are so beautiful, if I were a boy, I would love you to death." Anthea covered her mouth and smiled.

Laura said nothing, just nodded her head to thank her new friend, and looked awkwardly inside the bedroom, where all the servants slept in the same room. A large room has up to forty double beds and of course, two people will sleep in one bed.

Anthea gently pushed open the door and whispered, "Let's go in."

Returning to her bed Anthea dropped onto the soft mattress, too tired today.

"Let's sleep." Anthea patted the spot left beside her, telling Laura to lie down.

Laura also did not hesitate to lie down, she thought about what had happened these days, it was like a dream, a chase, something had attracted and pushed her here. The girl looked up at the ceiling with thoughts and fell asleep without realizing it. Tomorrow, live or die, Laura will be the one to decide, she will not let anyone harm her.
