Me and my Husband's Storage

09. Role of the House Mistress

Celine*

Hezkiel looks upset. All the servants looked terrified as well. The tension felt until I felt the aura of Hezkiel's wrath. What's gonna happen? in my mind, I kept asking. I can't come any closer or interfere. I don't want Hezkiel to hate me more.

I just hope, I hope everything's okay. No big problems or bad things will happen. Don't come, because my request has to be executed. Those servants, including Aunt Anha, were in trouble. No, that can't happen. I will protect them at all costs. I don't want anyone else to suffer because of me.

"Can you explain, why there's no dinner in this house? as you know, there's my guy still at home?" ask Hezkiel. Look at the waiter one by one.

"I'm sorry, sir. I was too quick to answer. We, just run what Anha's butler said. No more and no less." replied one of the cooks.

"Oh, so. Then ... You don't think if there's one human that needs to be fed? do you think my man is a fly, huh." wrath Hezkiel.

"I'm sorry, Mr .... "

"Ampuni us .... "

"Sorry, Mr .... "

All the servants were busy apologizing to Hezkiel. They feel guilty for neglecting duty. I still see what else Hezkiel wants to do.

"Sir, they're innocent. I am the one in charge. If you want to blame someone, blame me. Because it was me who asked them to do it all" Anha said opening her voice.

"Who rules you, Bi?" hezkiel asked with a face holding in anger.

"Ti-nothing, sir. That's my own initiative. I don't want to serve Miss Austin. Please punish me." Anha lied to Hezkiel.

No, this is not true. Anha is innocent. Why did he lie and cover up what I had told him.

"of course. Punishment must be there. Please pack up and return to the mansion of the Master and Madam. It seems like Aunt Anha is no longer fit to work here" Hezkiel said.

Hearing that Hezkiel was going to send Aunt Anha home, I became worried. I don't have anyone close anymore than Aunt Anha. How'this? what am I supposed to do? my thinking.

I don't want to have to face this. Even though my good name is at stake here. Although Hezkiel will increasingly distrust and hate me, even away from me. I don't have a problem. As long as I don't lose Aunt Anha. I won't let Aunt Anha leave this house.

"Wait.

I suddenly opened my voice and walked over to Anha's aunt. All eyes are staring at me. I'm nervous, but I can't be quiet anymore. My feelings are also mixed..

"Mrs, what are you doing?" aunt Anha told me.

I smiled at him, "It's okay, Bi. Let me explain everything.Here, no one is mad. I'm the one who's wrong, because I've lowered the ban on serving that woman." I said blatantly.

"What?" hezkiel was shocked. He widened his eyes as if he could not believe it.

"True, it's all because of me. I ordered it. So, let go of Aunt Anha and all the servants. You can punish me." I said again. Justifying my previous words.

I turned to look at Aunt Anha and all the servants that were there. I immediately asked them all to leave the living room.

"Everyone, you can leave us both. Because it's our business. I'll take responsibility for everything." I said.

"Nyo-mrs ... " Call Aunt Anha.

I hugged Aunt Anha, "No need to worry, Bi. Everything's gonna be fine. Believe me" I whispered in his ear. And was responded to by Aunt Anha.

We took off our hugs and looked at each other again. I saw Elie too. He seemed to want to cry. So cassian. I nodded my head, a sign of letting the two go. Moments later, Anha takes Elie away with her leaving me and Hezkiel.

Prokkk .. prokkk .. prokkk ....

The sound of applause came from Hezkiel. I turned and looked towards him. He laughed loudly, making me frown.

What does it mean to laugh like that? is he crazy? thankfully, only I know. Because I say it only in my heart.

"Why are you laughing?" my many.

"Why?" continued. He laughed again. Really makes me not understand. What the hell happened to him.

"Yes, why? is there anything funny, Mr. Winter." I'm starting to get upset.

"How can you do this, Celine. You've only been living in this house for a few months. However, you have tamed everyone including the servants. Don't you need to be rewarded?" hezkiel smiled as if to mock me.

I thought, trying to digest his words. Until I finally found out what he meant. Ah, right too. For him who does not like me, I am a person trying to find face in his parents or people around us.

It doesn't matter to me what he thinks. Now that I know, my role here as 'Young Lady Winter' is useful. Hezkiel even looks helpless now. Is it because he's worried I'm gonna complain? apparently, he was very afraid of being removed from the heirs' records, huh. It's laughable, but I don't have to interfere with it. That's none of my business. So, I don't want to bother involving me in a complicated situation.

"If so, what would you give me? are you willing to give your heart?" my many. I just wanted to lure him. I want to see how it responds.

Hezkiel widened his eyes, "What did you say? huh, looks like you forgot. I'm not gonna give you anything but my money. Take that, Mrs Winter." she replied annoyedly.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I honestly didn't forget. I was just wondering if he was still in his stance or had faltered. As I expected, he was still firm on his stance. I'll only get the money, the heart, the love and the body, completely belonging to that woman.

I don't know why my heart is hurting again. I'm his wife, but I get a priceless share. For me, money is not everything. Because I was also born of a wealthy family, although Lidya and Dion always made my days bad, Papa never reduced my lunar allowance. So did Lydia. Because after all, I'm Christian Greey's only daughter.

Maybe it's my destiny too. Every time I fight for love, I always get the part that is not how much. After my Papa that Lydia and Dion must rule. Now my husband is overrun by a lowly woman named Monna.

"I understand. I'll just get your money. But I, as your wife, want something more." I asked.

"What's? whatdoyouwant? don't mess around" he said gritting his teeth.

"Power," I replied.

"Aren't you in power? what else do you want, Celine. Don't make me stay away from you any more" said Hezkiel.

"Yes, I'm in power. Therefore, I asked the waiter not to make dinner last night. Before, I hadn't asked your permission to give me power. I'm just utilizing my status as the 'Mistress' of this house. Now, give me power. And I'm not gonna mess with your love." I explained.

Whether this is true or not. The power I need here. That way, that woman can't mess around in this house. I am the 'Mistress of the House' I have more rights and powers, if Hezkiel grants my request.
