At 4: 00 a.m., Arthur woke up.
Hearing the steady breathing, he looked at the woman beside him who had fallen asleep peacefully. Her long hair was soft and the quilt even almost covered her chin. She was quiet just like a lovely cat.
Now it seemed that she didn't have a glib tongue as she did in the day but she was so gentle and peaceful, which made him feel much more comfortable.
Arthur's heart, which had been trained to become cold in the army since he was a child, suddenly softened a little.
...
Jocelyn had such a peaceful sleep that she woke up at noon the next day.
She sat up with the quilt till covering her, yawned, and was stunned to see nobody around her.
Did she sleep too sound?
She even didn't perceive that Arthur had got up.
Jocelyn pushed back the quilt and got out of bed. After a random wash, she went downstairs to have breakfast.
As soon as she arrived at the stairway, she heard the voice of Selena who was talking to a servant in the living room on the first floor.
"Did he have any reaction?" Selena deliberately lowered her voice, But it happened that Jocelyn was standing at the diagonal angle of the stairs.
She stretched her neck curiously and looked down, then she was stunned.
It was the maid who wore a slip dress and tore Arthur's underwear last night.
It was interesting.
"I didn't pay attention to it. The young master was reluctant." The maid was obviously nervous and blushed, and she even stuttered, "After that, the young hostess came in, so I didn't go on..."
"There is no need for you to be afraid of her. She is just an ornament in Morrison family. If Arthur can really fall in love with her, why do I ask you to do that?" Selena was a little unhappy.
"Madam, I really can't make it. Otherwise, you'd better find someone else to do that. I..."
The maid blushed, hesitating but not knowing how to explain.
"Hey? What agreement have we reached? You have taken the money. You..." Selena did not intend to give up easily.
Jocelyn immediately realized that the maid was subordinated to Selena?
She couldn't bear to see how Selena forced the maid to prostitute herself, so she simply stepped down quickly. She said in her clear and bright voice and broke the embarrassment in the living room, "Good morning, Mom."
Hearing Jocelyn's voice, Selena paused and quickly signed to the maid to stand down.
She frowned and went to Jocelyn, then she accused her, "Don't you know that you need to keep the rules? What time is it? You have been released from prison for several days. But how can you go downstairs at this time every day! "
Selena suspiciously looked at Jocelyn, "Is it true that you got up just now?"
"Sorry, Mom, I don't want to be so late, but last night I was too tired to take care of Arthur. In the morning, Arthur got up and didn't wake me up, so I have got up late." Jocelyn yawned and apologized sincerely.
Anyway, Arthur would not be here for a long time. He would not know that she was building her prestige in Morrison family in the name of him.
Moreover, what she said was true, and she should not be guilty.
Sure enough, what she said was just like a bomb.Selena was shocked, "What did you say? Did you sleep in a room with Arthur last night?
"Yes." Jocelyn nodded and lowered her voice, then said again, "Mom, there are servants here. Please keep your voice lower..."
As soon as she looked at her shy look, Selena immediately burst into laughter, "That's great. You really need to have a good rest!"
Several servants were clearing the table. Selena directly stopped them, "Hurry up and bring out the steak cooked just now in the kitchen. Young hostess hasn't had breakfast. Don't clear the table."
Jocelyn stepped down the last step wearing her slippers and raised her eyebrows, ignoring that what Selena was busy with.
It seemed that she was right to guess that although Arthur was disabled, he still occupied an extraordinary position in Morrison family. As long as others thought that they two loved each other very much, she would own the status that the eldest young hostess in Morrison family should have!
This was only the first step of her whole plan.
