Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 695

In Kingswood Mansion.

Ruby stood respectfully beside Old K while listening to his lectures. “About that… Ms. Softie, you can do anything you want in this house with the only exception being that Master Blaine’s study is off-limits. If you were to trespass into Master Blaine’s room, he would really throw you into the river to feed the fishes.”

‘Besides, Master Blaine has set up multiple hidden traps in his study room. If she were to accidentally touch these traps, she might get hurt or even lose her life,’ Old K thought to herself.

Ruby nodded. “He emphasized that just now. Oh, by the way, he said I can’t just stay here for free. What’s my work tasks then?”

“Master Blaine said you can follow Butler William in trimming the bushes and shrubs in the garden. You can just lend a hand to him if he needs any help.”

“So my job is to be Butler William’s assistant?”

Old K could not help but shrug. “I guess you can say that.”

“Will I get paid then?”

“Ahem, regarding that… I don’t think so.”

‘This lady is quite materialistic. Master Blaine just agreed on taking her in and allowed her to stay in this mansion. Her meals are provided too. How dare she hope for a salary by doing chores? Haha, she’s too innocent,’ Old K thought to himself.

“Alright then. I’ll meet up with Butler William.”

“Okay.”

…

In the study on the second floor.

The man stood by the French window with his gaze on the girl downstairs who was absent-mindedly trimming the bushes with a pair of hand pruners.

With detailed documents of what they had found out about Ruby in hand, Old K entered the study and walked toward Blaine. He followed Blaine’s gaze and his eyes fell upon the girl in the backyard.

“Master, these are the detailed documents we have about her identity.”

Blaine took the documents over and casually flipped through the pages before coming across her name. ‘Hermione Luna, what an awkward name,’ Blane thought to himself.
