Chapter 08: Becoming his personal maid

Inola Tornese returned to her room with her mind in turmoil, after exploring everywhere in the villa, she felt exhausted and her mind wandering to where he couldn't imagine.

She was curious to know what was behind the door but she planned to lay low for now and then make her move. She needs to know the kind of work he did and how he was able to achieve all this with tons of people at his call.

Even her adoptive father, Mr Tornese, who was wealthy doesn't have such people at his call. Although, their villa was an impressive sight as well but it can't be compared to Don Greco's villa.

She laid on her bed completely exhausted, she had not eaten anything since daybreak and she was starving.

She quietly stepped out and for a minute, she tried to remember how to get there and she eventually found her way there.

The maids gave her a cold look that made her shiver.

What has she done wrong?

"Please, I'm hungry". She finally spoke up and they simply ignored her.

What has she said wrong?

To put it straight, the maids dislike her to the core. She wasn't the first lady the boss will claim but she was the prettiest of them all, they hated her the moment she was brought in.

She had barely spent two days in the villa and they have harboured such hatred for her.

They couldn't act openly or they would lose their lives, since they rule the kitchen, they would deal with her in the way they can.

Inola Tornese couldn't take the stern look from them and repeated her statement, "I said I'm hungry, can I have something to eat?".

"We heard you but there is no food for a slut like you!". One of the maids retorted sharply and she froze.

A slut?

Why would she call her a slut?

Inola Tornese decided not to argue with people like them and requested for her food one last time but she wasn't given. She knew her place in the villa and dared not act rashly. She has nothing to threaten them with.

Inola Tornese could only walk out of the kitchen without uttering a word because they are being paid for the job they are doing while she just a mere took used and tossed around as she was being punished for someone's crime.

The thought of that alone made tears drop from her eyes, she decided not to go to her room, she went outside and sat by the fountain, her hands inside the cold water.

She found no joy in the life she had come to, she was living like a prisoner in her house and now here, tears poured non-stop from her face as she played with the water.

She was slowly losing her strength, she didn't eat the previous day and now she was starving for reasons she doesn't know. She spent close to an hour by the fountain and finally decided to return to her room to have a good sleep.

She was denied food and not sleep, she had barely taken two steps when she collapsed and every went blank.

No maid was in sight, his men are everywhere but you can't just see them.

They exchanged a confused look and immediately contacted Sophus who was in the study with Don Greco.

Sophus' phone rang in the study and he excused himself to pick the call. He returned to the room to inform Don Greco about it.

"Boss, I was informed she passed out a few minutes ago". Sophus said and Done Greco said nothing, confusion written in his face.

Don Greco raised his head and asked, "Who passed out?".

"The young lady that....."

Don Greco felt a headache coming as he quickly interrupted, "How does that concern me in any way? I have no business with that".

His response was sharp and rude!

"Don Greco, what do we do?". Sophus asked him because he didn't know what step to take.

Don Greco paused for a minute to think, if he lets her die, he would be a huge loss. He decided against it and decided to offer her medical treatment.

"Bring in the doctor and give me the report before night falls". Don Greco said and Sophus hurriedly left the study to bring in the doctor.

Don Greco sat still, his eyes piercing the couch, his emotions neutral but his heart was heavy, he heaved a sigh and looked away.

Meanwhile Inola Tornese was rushed into her room and the doctor had already arrived, ready to examine her. He checked her vitals and examined every other part before turning to Sophus with a puzzled expression.

"What is going on?". The confused Sophus asked.

The doctor sighed and spoke softly, "She is fine and will wake up soon, it's just that she is low in sugar. Has she not been eating? She looks pale and unfed".

"We didn't starve her, how can she be pale and unfed?". Sophus questioned.

The Doctor replied, "Don't panic, she is out of danger, I have injected her and she is fine, she should wake up soon and ensure she eats well or her condition can be critical than this".

"Don't worry, I will make sure of that". Sophus replied.

They exchanged pleasantries and the doctor left, Sophus looked at her for a while and he must admit she was a rare beauty but it was such a pity she meant nothing to Don Greco.

He left the room to address the issue but he had to first report to Don Greco's room.

"Boss, the doctor just left, he said she wasn't fed and she is low on sugar". Sophus reported to Don Greco.

"Okay"

His response was short and Sophus was confused.

Wasn't he supposed to look into it?

"Boss....."

"Do you have a problem with my response?". Don Greco questioned.

Sophus sighed and sat down, "No boss".

"Good".

In no time night fell and Inola Tornese woke up from her deep slumber and was confused on how she got to her room, the last thing she remembered was when she was at the fountain.

She then remembered she slumped after deciding to return to her room. She sighed and stood up from the bed, her body trembling from hunger.

She walked out of the room and took the stairs downstairs, she froze when she met Don Greco at the dining table eating slowly.

For a minute, she didn't know if she was to join him or just return to her room. If she returns to her room, she might starve to death. She decided to ignore him and just walk straight to the kitchen.

She passed by him without acknowledging his presence and he let out a cold smirk.

What a nerve!

She got to the kitchen and met only one maid there, she was confused but decided to mind her business. She walked up to the maid and politely asked for her food, "Please, can I have something to eat?".

"Sure". The maid replied with a bright smile and she chuckled.

Humans are very interesting!

This minute they are acting cold and the next minute they are acting all nice.

The maid dished her food and she hurriedly ate it in the kitchen. The maid was taken aback by how she devoured the food in a hurry and even requested for more.

"We're you starved?". She was forced to ask.

Inola Tornese paused for a minute before nodding her head.

"Really?"

Inola scoffed and spoke out of anger, "Wait.... You didn't know? Weren't you part of those who refused to give me food even when I begged for it?".

"No, I was not even in charge of the kitchen, I normally take part in the cleaning and I was just moved to the kitchen after the boss sacked some maids". She explained and Inola didn't think much of it.

Inola Tornese with a mouthful replied, "Serves them right! What is your name?".

"Negasi".

She nodded and finished her food, feeling satisfied and full, "Thank you for the food, I will remember this and pay you back".

"Nevermind, I'm just doing my job, you can come to me if you need anything as long as it's something I can offer, then I would". Negasi quickly replied, not wanting her to repay her.

Inola Tornese nodded and left the kuchen, Don Greco wasn't there anymore and she sighed in relief.

She returned to her room and peacefully laid on the bed and drifted off to sleep like someone who has no worries.

In Don Greco's room, he got dressed in a black silky shirt and black pants with a black shining shoe. He wore a silver ring and a high-end Rolex watch, he fixed his hair, sprayed his cologne and left the room. He got to Inola's door and suddenly stopped, he opened the door and saw her fast asleep on the bed.

He left the room and stepped out, Sophus was already waiting with a Lamborghini Gallardo not far from the fountain. He got into the car and before Sophus could start the car, he spoke up, "She seems not to have anything to do, she will clean my room, study and attend to whatever I need. She is now my personal maid!".

Sophus immediately understood what he meant and nodded before driving out of the villa
