Writer's Pov

　　While Edna was on the phone call Darrel remembered the conversation he had with his Beta last night and how the Company is under little attack while he's having a serious issue with the family as well

　　Edna has also been noticing that there's something wrong with Darrel of late. She ended the call and stared at him then she noticed he was very disturbed.

　　"I think there's something wrong at the Company," Edna wondered to herself. Darrel didn't let her know that the Company was going through a little fall but judging from the calls he was making and the way Becky was also behaving, she concluded that there's something going on in the Company.

　　Edna realized that Darrel left the house in such a hurry and he even skipped breakfast. He also snaps at the slightest thing and got two of the house maids fired in one night.

　　"He just has to calm down and handle whatever is going on because getting mad at the isn't going to help the problem at hand" she thought to herself because she wouldn't dare to say this in Becky's presence. Asides from the fact that he's so short tempered at the moment, even though she tells him that when he'd be perfectly unbothered he's not going to give her listening ears so there was no need speaking to him about it.

　　Edna decided to go out for a walk around the Company house because she has been indoors for too long now since the food poisoning. She was on her way back and was going to her room when she ran into Becky.

　　"Aren't you aware that two of our vital maids in this house got fired due to their incompetence and lack of activeness in their duty?" Becky asked Edna.

　　"I'm aware, I was told Darrel got them fired for no good reason"Edna responded shading Darrel. "Are you insinuating that Darrel got them fired for no good reason? How dare you speak such nonsense against my son?" She asked Edna.

　　Edna knew that Becky was also going through tough time with Darrel in the Company so she didn't want to escalate the topic any further. "So what should I do about it?" She asked expecting to get a positive reply. The question got Becky shocked. She thought that at this point Edna would be so scared of her and would speak to her in such a manner.

　　"Are you supposed to be told about your duties in this house? All you do is eat and sleep and wake with the excuse that you're yet to recover from the food poisoning" Edna was still confused and wondered where the scolding was coming from because it was so unnecessary.

　　"It's not my duty to employ new staff because I'm not the one to pay them at the end of the month so Whoever is going to pay them at the end of the month should be the one to conduct the employment process for the new maids" Edna replied to her question angrily.

　　Becky had been the one in charge of recruiting staff in the house long before Edna came into the mansion. She was just looking for a way to snap at Edna. Edna stood there looking at Becky.

　　"Why are you staring at me like that? Will you get out of my presence at this moment?" Edna didn't say a word, she just walked away. "Very stupid lady, you don't care about whatever is going on in your home and you call yourself a wife such a nuisance" Becky kept on swearing at Edna even though she already left.

　　Edna wasn't moved by the kind of words Becky was saying because she was beginning to have thick skin and Becky insults no longer got to her.

　　Darrel just got back from work and he was so tired because he had a lot of work to do at the office. He got home, freshened up and waited for one of the maids to come and call him downstairs when dinner was ready. He waited for close to thirty minutes because he didn't want to get to the dining table and was waiting for the food to be ready so he decided to wait in his bedroom.

　　At this point Edna was noticing the distance between Darrel and her, he was slowly turning into another person.

　　After waiting for a while and no one came to call him he stood up from his bed angrily and went downstairs to know what's keeping them from preparing his dinner.

　　He got downstairs and realized that the chefs already prepare something for them to eat. It was already past dinner time and Edna and Becky were not in the dinning area Darrel realized he would be eating dinner all by himself. Edna and Becky already had their dinner before he got back because he has been acting very strange and different.

　　Darrel was so hungry which made him more angry. He sat down on the dinning and ate the food all by himself, he realized there might be something wrong with the way he has been behaving because it's the first time Edna Is going to bed without waiting for him to return first.

　　While he was eating he almost choked so the maid on duty rushed towards him worried.

　　"What do you mean by I… I…?" He asked the maid to mimic her. The maid has so much fear of Darrel, because she could also tell that he has been very different of late.

　　"Can't you speak? Rat cut your tongue?" The maid still didn't say a word. She was shivering and fear had gripped her that she couldn't bring herself to speak. Her silence got Darrel more upset.

　　"Who the hell will employ a deaf and dumb maid into my mansion?" His voice was so loud that the maids in their respective rooms could hear his voice loud and clear. "I'm sorry sir" she finally said as she struggled not to stammer. "So you can speak?" Darrel asked when she replied to him. "Yes sir" the maid nodded her head.
