"Is that not too convenient for you to say?" Her voice low, her eyes dim, she stepped away from him, leaving him there, heading inside.
Two days went by, and Rhea hadn't stepped out of her room. During those times, Zeenare came knocking, but she never answered.
She strode from the table to the bedside and drew the bell rope.
Three female maids entered the room, and Aluna.
Rhea's eyes streamed over Aluna as she glanced at the door. "Where is Othimise?"
"I'd be replacing him today," Aluna replied, not giving her any explanation.
A frown flashed through Rhea as she felt hostility from his tone, but she paid him no mind.
After a cleaning and morning routine was over, the girls left, but Aluna didn't.
"Can I help you with something?" Rhea enquired, picking up her phone.
Aluna said nothing for a while, holding her gaze, disdain evident in his eyes.
I don't know him from anywhere. So why is there so much hatred in his eyes towards me?
