Chapter 3 The Dan's House

Amelia's POV

'Since I am going to earn my keep, why bother about being claimed? After all I have a lot going on in mind, finding a house is the least of them,' I thought before I finally gave in to his suggestion.

I raised my gaze to glance at the cold man standing before me, "Frank, how am I going to earn my keep?" I questioned curiously.

"Work as my family's maid. You aren't just going to get free food, and a roof over your head, but your safety. I will also help you if you are in dire need," he replied calmly for the first time today.

I let out a sigh before I asked again, "why sh-"

"Can't those 'whys' of yours pause for a moment?" his dark eyes piercing into mine, he scolded.

He slid his hands into his pocket and brought out his phone before he dialled a number.

'Zane, why aren't you here by now?' he questioned loudly as if he was going to cut down the person's head if he or she was closer.

'Sir, I have been here for a while. I couldn't come in because you were having a conversation,' a voice echoed after the sound of the opened door echoed in my ear.

Forgot I was still naked, I was reminded by the disgusting look on the man's face.

"Oh... Oh... I am so... Sorry," I stuttered. Without hesitating, I wrapped the towel around my body.

Frank who was watching me didn't move an inch or react to my behaviour before he walked up to the man who just came in.

"Zane, you don't have to act shy in front of a maid. Just give me the dress and go wait for me in the car," his voice sounded different as he talked to the man, more like they were lovers.

Oh, what was I thinking?

The man nodded and left without a word, while Frank walked up to me before he threw the dress he bought at me.

"Sir... Sir... Will you... Please excuse me?" I stuttered.

Frank ignored me, and continued staring at me with the look 'did I care?'

Since I understood what he was trying to do, I decided not to make a fool of myself and dress up.

After I was done dressing up, we walked down to the car lots, and drove off to his house afterward.

The street's road to his house was so quiet that even the sound of a fallen pin could be heard. Just the thought of how silent, and boring this street was, made me imagine how it would be if it was his house.

"Amelia, what are you staring at? Are you scared because this road is silent compared to yours? Lousy, and meant for the poor."

As if he knew what was going on in my mind, he decided to piss me off with harsh words.

Again, I ignored him since I wasn't poor. It just turned out that I and my family were unfortunate.

"We are here," the man from earlier, obviously the driver, informed us.

I did not wait for them to alight before I unbolt the seatbelt and alighted from the car.

For a while, I studied the cars around. They are the new brands of cars which are super expensive. Even my life's worth will never buy one of these cars, talk more of fifteen of them.

"What are you so lost at? Amelia?"

His voice made me snap out of my exaggeration. I smiled at him without uttering a word.

The driver opened the door, and we walked into the magnificent mansion. Even Sean's house which I thought was the most outstanding building in Crystal's City wasn't a match for this.

"Amelia, will you move out of my front, and continue staring? Uh?" His voice was colder, and harsh.

I did not hesitate to walk in before I got pushed out of the way. The pain from last night hasn't subdued, I can't add another one.

No matter how hard I try not to stare at the interior of the house, my eyes won't just let me. My eyes scanned everywhere in admiration at how magnificent, and super expensive everything in it was.

"Frankie, even if we aren't on good terms, can't you inform us before bringing in a slut here? Uh?" A charming voice drew my attention, making me realise the presence of a handsome man who sat across on the couch adjacent to me.

I turned my gaze to Frank who was now a totally different person in front of his brother. Except I heard it wrong, his brother mentioned 'we' as if there is another mister here. Oh, wow, that will be mister sexy.

What a trio. Mr. Sexy, Mr. Ice–cold, and Mr. Charming, hahaha.

"Do I now need permission to bring anyone into this house? Even if I do, should it be from you or Sean?"

The name 'Sean' suddenly drew my attention to their conversation. I just hope they aren't that jerk's brothers.

Frank's brother let go of his headphone before he took a few steps closer to his brother, "why can't I when you both literally control every shit going on in my life?" With that being said, he walked out on him.

I turned to face the driver before I questioned slowly, "What is up with those two, why are they acting like enemies?"

"You better not know anything rather than to know what you shouldn't have. Don't play with them or you will regret it," as if he was selling out the last helpful card he had got, he advised me then walked out.

Left with Frank, I walked slowly to him with fear inside me. I am afraid to talk to him about personal stuff, but I think I have to. The fact that we are mates isn't deniable.

"mister... Sorry, Frankie, where is the third brother of yours? I mean, I heard 'we', so I gue-"

Before I completed my statement, he interrupted me.

"I am too tired for this. You can serve him his favourite juice in his room, I care less."

He walked away after he was done passing the vital information that I needed.

In no time, I got the juice ready with the help of the butler, and took it to the direct room.

I knocked faintly and without response, I turned the door knob, and fortunately for me it wasn't locked.

I headed in, and informed the man who was staring at his phone, "sir, I came to serve you your favourite juice."

"And did I ask for it? Why is everyone in this house so noisy? Damn!" The man yelled before he stood up about to leave.

The cup fell off my hands as I stared at the man. I cleaned my eyes to be sure if it was him, or I was dreaming, but this is really happening! My nemesis is living in this house of all places?
