The man remained silent for quite some time. A few minutes later, the housemaid heard someone closing in her direction.
The moment the man opened the door, the housemaid found out Sebastian had hopped his way out of bed with his only functioning leg.
Staring at the handsome man in front of him, she lost herself in a train of thought until she heard the man instructing her in a callous tone, “Go get my wheelchair over.”
“O-Okay!”
The housemaid responded with a nod and rushed in the direction of the wheelchair she had gotten ready in advance.
Sebastian’s injuries were no longer a big problem, but he still couldn’t maneuver around as he wish. After all, his limbs had sustained quite serious injuries.
Shortly after he took a seat in his wheelchair, he wheeled himself in the direction of the elevator and made his way downstairs.
“Good morning, Mr. Sebastian!”
“Good morning, sir!”
As soon as he reached downstairs, the housemaids, who had long gotten themselves ready to serve him, greeted him in unison.
One of them brought him to the dining hall and served him all sorts of breakfast they had gotten ready beforehand.
As usual, the housemaids put on their gloves and started serving Sebastian the cutlery he might need for his meal.
However, he thought something was wrong when he recalled the breakfast he had yesterday.
The housemaid talked to him in a courteous manner, “Mr. Sebastian, we have all sorts of dishes ready for you. May I know if you prefer something light today?”
They were pretty mindful of their actions and refrained from touching the things on the table unless they were instructed to.
Nonetheless, Sebastian wasn’t in the mood to savor the delicacies in front of him. In fact, he was slightly irked and brought himself away from the dining table after a few minutes.
“Mr. Sebastian?”
The handsome man instructed in a callous tone, “Get me a glass of water and bring it to the garden! It’s time for the physio session!”
A few minutes later, a housemaid showed up with a glass of water and kept him company throughout the session.
When Jonathan showed up with others, they saw the perspiring man repeating the same action in an attempt to regain the ability to walk just like an ordinary man.
