The next day, the Murphy family, together with the maid's family, buried the maid in secret.
After the funeral, Jocelyn and Noah returned to their home together.
It was the first time since Gloria's death that the two of them had entered their own home.
The warm afternoon sun shone throughout the living room, warming it all up.
The world of Baroque, with all its objects and ornaments, was shining.
Dragging her tired body, Jocelyn sat down on the sofa, leaning lightly against the backrest and pinching her brow.
Noah changed into his shoes and walked to her, .turned her around and massaged for her.
His movements were extremely professional.
Each stroke was just right, pressing on the point that would make her feel comfortable.
At this moment, this man, even in his hair, was gentle.
The afternoon sun, although warm, was not a millionth as warm as his.
"Comfortable?" He asked.
Jocelyn closed her eyes with a look of enjoyment, "Yeah."
"Now that everything is over, it's time for you and I to return to our normal lives, starting tomorrow, let's work hard and stop thinking too much." Noah said.
"Okay." Jocelyn responded without thinking.
"Leave the rest to Matteo." Noah added.
"Okay."
"By the way, mum wants us to come home for dinner tonight."
"Okay."
The words fell, Jocelyn slowly opened her eyes, "I'm going to go to the bank in a while."
"What for?" Noah asked.
"Didn't we negotiate before to give that maid's parents five million in compensation? They said for me to accompany them to the bank and make a deposit slip for the money." Jocelyn added.
"Can't you just transfer the money to them through internet banking?" Noah said.
"They came out of the mountains, can't read or write, can't use bank cards and smartphones, and don't have bank cards. In the past, their daughter helped them with these things, and now that their daughter has gone, there's no one to help." Jocelyn said.
"Well, do you need me to accompany you?" Noah still had a doting face.
"No need, you go to the company, you should have a bunch of things waiting for you in your company."
"Fine, but bring extra bodyguards, which bank are you going to? I'll call that bank president and arrange a special lane for you to do business." Noah added.
Jocelyn shook her head, "No need to go to that trouble, at this hour, there must not be many people in the bank, don't use your privileges for everything."
When Noah heard that, he nodded and repeated, "Okay, then you bring more bodyguards."
"Okay." Jocelyn nodded obediently with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "I'll look for you at your company after I finish my business."
With those words, Jocelyn went upstairs and took a shower, then went into the cloakroom and casually changed into a white navel-less tight T-shirt, a pair of light blue skinny jeans with holes, and a pair of white casual flat sandals.
This outfit was not expensive, but it fit her perfectly.
She looked more energetic than usual.
Tying her big black curly hair into a low ponytail, she casually took another white hat from the hat rack and put it on her head, before taking her car keys, as well as her mobile phone and heading out the door.
Driving in a black Bentley Elegance, Jocelyn was escorted by a group of bodyguard cars and arrived at the maid's house all the way downstairs.
From a distance, she could see her parents standing there.
Two men were still wearing the black cotton summer suit they had worn to the funeral during the day, and a pair of white flip-flops.
