I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 3

"Knock, knock"

Sheri snaps from her thoughts, and she tries to copy the way the owner of the body speaks.

"Come in," Sheri looked at the maid who came in. She wears a blue uniform and her head is down. She never once looked at her when she went inside. Sheri was observing her the moment she came inside. While looking at the maid Sheri notice to see the woman trembling. The maid tried to hide it but Sheri can see her hands were a bit shaking.

On the part of the maid. The maid is so frightened was nervous. She hated it when they assigned her to her but since it's a double pay she accepted it without any hesitation.

She walked in the corner and never once lifted her head. Sheri can see that she knows where she's going even if she doesn't lookup.

"Ma'am, Sir has said he will arrive at 4 pm to pick you up," The maid agitated said and waits anxiously for her reply.

Sheri was observing her and still digesting all the information she received. She knows this is the 30th maid they assigned to her. Every month Louise kick her own maid out of the mansion. One mistake and they are gone.

The whole mansion knows the uncontrollable temper of their madam. She will lash out, out of nothing. If she's bored, she will dismiss anyone who she sees. She is being feared that every single maid shudders at her presence making her husband pays double for the people who work there.

Sheri remains quiet and tries to remember what is the even of the day.

After a few minutes of no response from Sheri, the maid starts to panic. She was unconsciously firmly holding her hand.

On the contrary, Sheri is striving desperately to calm her complex emotions she felt everything was a whirlwind. She desperately felt needing a space to sort out everything that has transpired to her. She needs space to breathe to adjust but alas, her mission has to be executed.

Heck, she can still feel the chains, the terrible fear, the overwhelming guilt, the pent-up anger toward herself, and now she has to feel the emotions of the body she's in.

Sheri looked at the maid waiting anxiously.

"Ahem, Alright, notify me if Mr. Bacht arrived," Sheri said.

The frightened maid was instantly relieved and excuses herself. After the door is closed.
