I didn’t look up and couldn’t see Rachel’s face.
But it didn’t matter to me.
Rachel was silent for a moment and said, “Aunt Jones, I’ve already inquired. It turns out that you are Mr. Jessop’s ex-wife and gave birth to a child for Mr. Jessop. Now you don’t leave because you want to make up with Mr. Jessop.”
“Yes.”
I washed the curtains and didn’t deny it.
Maybe from some point of view, I did hope so.
Rachel giggled. “You’re naive. Have you ever heard a proverb?”
I ignored her, but she continued, “men are single-minded. Men of all ages like women of twenty. Do you think so?”
With that, Rachel smiled even more brightly.
I looked up at Rachel and finally found that she was a little strange.
Rachel’s hair was plain black, but it was cut in layers.
Especially her bangs were carefully cut.
Her hair must have been designed by a barber in a regular barber shop.
I stood up suddenly. Rachel was holding her chin in her hand.
I could see her fingers.
Her nails were not long but clean. She must take care of them often.
I looked at Rachel again.
I was pretty sure she was not a country girl. She was a standard city girl.
And she used to be very fashionable.
“What’s the matter?” Rachel seemed a little flustered.
I smiled, “Rachel, how old are you? Where do you come from? You’re a servant for the first time, aren’t you?”
“Me?” Rachel looked aside and said unnaturally, “I’m 20 this year. I am a native. I just want to experience life as a servant.”
To be honest, if I didn’t find out, I would think she was a vain country girl and embarrassed to say where she was born.
I didn’t look down on country girls, but I understood Rachel was pretending.
And everything seemed to have been choreographed for her.
Who was this person?
Needless to say, I understood.
I pretended not to find out. I exposed her, “really? Where are your junior and senior high schools? You should go to college. Why do you want to be a servant?”
“It’s none of your business!” Rachel was embarrassed. She raised her feet and kicked the big basin in front of her.
She turned and was leaving!
“Come here!” I grabbed Rachel. “Put them back.”
“Why!”
Rachel was obviously reluctant.
“Hurry up!” I had been holding her.
After making sure Rachel was acting, I was confident.
Sean wanted to pretend and get rid of me.
OK, I would cooperate with them. I wanted to see when they were exposed.
I could wash the curtains every day!
Rachel was flustered. “I don’t...”
“Then stay here!”
“I’m going to report Mr. Jessop!”
“Whatever!”
Rachel and I were fighting downstairs.
Sure enough, soon I heard the sound of a wheelchair behind me.
