Sasha was holding her daughter’s hand while dragging a huge luggage bag along. It was obvious that she was not going to give the security guard the chance to turn her away.
The security guard was exasperated when he saw her stance.
He opened the door for the two of them. Vivian ran around like a cheery bird as soon as she was set free. She jogged toward the mansion.
“Hello, where are my pretty playmates? Your precious little Vivi is here. Come play with me.”
Her crisp baby voice was as lively as the chirps of the birds, and it echoed all around.
The housemaids in Oceanic Estate had already taken a liking to Vivian, so they rushed out to welcome the cute little girl.
“Come quick, our cute Vivian is here like she promised.”
“Ah, you’re right. Carry her over.”
“Hey, no way! She is the precious little baby of we gardeners. Jasmin, go take her to the garden. Quick!”
“Uh, no! She’s supposed to be here in the kitchen. Don’t you steal her from me.”
“No, she’s mine!”
It only took a few seconds for the little kid to be everybody’s favorite.
Oceanic Estate had never been that lively in the morning before.
Sasha found that to be hilarious.
She was glad that her daughter was that popular though because she could ignore the latter and drag their luggage to the living room immediately.
“Morning, Olivia.”
“Good morning, Dr. West. You are here.”
The middle-aged housemaid, who was cleaning the living room, smiled warmly as soon as she saw Sasha there.
Sasha nodded and replied, “Thanks. By the way, where is Mr. Hayes? Is he up yet?”
“No, not yet. He usually sleeps in, and we’re too afraid to wake him up,” answered Olivia as she stared fearfully at the bedroom up the stairs. She chuckled awkwardly after that.
Sasha was stunned.
Does he sleep in? No way! He has always been the first one to wake up in the morning, and back in Avenport, he would already be at the office by the time I wake up.
Sasha dragged her luggage into the elevator and went straight to the room she slept in the night before.
“Huh? W-why isn’t anyone staying here?”
Sasha was stunned, and she stared at the empty room.
A housemaid happened to be cleaning in the region and walked past the place. She saw Sasha there, so she smiled and explained, “Mr. Hayes is no longer staying in that room, Dr. West. He moved to the third floor.”
“Huh?”
Sasha was surprised once more.
It took her a while before she came around and rushed over to the room on the third floor.
Why the hell did that guy change to a different room? Did he move out of it because he thought that I dirtied the place up?
Sasha felt like her heart was being stabbed.
