Chapter 17 Maria Helen
“She is a servant Mr. Walker arranged to take care of you. Her name is Maria Helen. When you recover, she will move into the apartment with you. Mr. Walker told me to warn you not to misunderstand him. He just wanted to have someone to keep an eye on you so you won’t cause more trouble for him.”
Upon hearing that, Catherine quietly looked at Luca only to find that his expression was calm and that he was speaking indifferently.
“Then, please tell him that I will never think that he’s concerned about me because I know my place.”
Just then, Maria frowned slightly because she didn’t understand why Mr. Walker would say such
a cruel something to this woman. Perhaps rich people were just that hard to understand. Since it wasn’t easy for her to find such a high-paying job, she should probably keep her mouth shut.
“It’s good that you know!” Luca replied coldly. At that moment, he sounded exactly like Ryan.
For the next two weeks, Luca and Maria took care of Catherine at the hospital. Because she had had a fever for quite a long time, she had severe pneumonia. In fact, the doctor said that she would probably have died if they had sent her to hospital later.
Thinking that she probably suffered enough punishment, Catherine decided to live from now on for her parents.
Meanwhile, Maria was conscientious, She was also quick and efficient in her work. The food she made was delicious.
Every day, Catherine would force herself to eat. more. After two weeks, she recovered and returned to the apartment. Completing his task, Luca no longer stayed by her side.
At that moment, she thought that he had gone to Areza since he rarely left Ryan’s side.
After returning to the apartment, she charged her cellphone and realized there were a lot of missed calls, and they were all from her parents.
Noticing the unread messages in the inbox, Catherine opened them up, only to find that they were all from Jasmine. She sent the pictures of her and Ryan.
In addition to Areza, they went to other places as well. It was probably a very interesting journey.
After staring at their photos for a while, she suddenly realized that she got his photos!
Thinking of this, Catherine got up and washed up before calling Kevin to arrange a meeting with him.
“Where are you going, Miss Green? You haven’t recovered yet. You need to have more rest here,” Maria advised.
“I’ve been bored to death, Maria. If Ryan or Luca
asks you where I go, tell them I went home. My : mom is worried about me.”
“I can’t go back. They will dock my salary,” Maria
After agreeing on a place to meet, she went to see Kevin and handed him the picture of Jasmine and Ryan.
