Chapter 158 Clean It While Kneeling
Sariah suddenly panicked and hurriedly said, “No… Aylin, I’m really not lying to you!
I really feel terrible, you know I’ve been watched by your people in the countryside, working day and night non-stop. I can’t even lift my hands now, I… I’ll fulfill my promise tomorrow! I guarantee it!”
Aylin was already annoyed by that entertainment news push notification, and it took quite some effort for Robert to finally cheer her up a bit. But as soon as Sariah arrived, all her good mood
vanished.
“What kind of nonsense are you talking about!”
She was annoyed by Sariah’s incessant chatter, like the chirping of a sparrow. Coldly, she raised her hand and called out, “Malcom, have the bodyguards throw her back to the countryside!”
Sariah’s face turned pale, realizing that there was no escaping this situation. It was clear that Aylin was determined to make her carry this basin of water.
She hurriedly stopped Malcom, who was about to leave the house, “No! Don’t go, I’ll fetch the water right away!”
Malcom looked at Aylin.
Sariah clenched her teeth and pleaded with a mournful expression on her face, “Aylin, I’ll go fetch water right away. Please don’t send me away again!”
Sariah, too, had been pampered by her parents since childhood. To make her relive those unbearable days would be as good as not living at all!
Aylin casually waved her hand.
This time, Sariah didn’t dare to delay. Relying on her memory, she hurried towards the bathroom.
Inside the bathroom, a white mist swirled around.
“This despicable woman…” Sariah muttered under her breath, lowering her voice.
Although she had no choice but to submit at this moment, her heart was still filled with resentment. Aylin had humiliated her, and she couldn’t possibly let herself be bullied so easily!
So she deliberately turned the water temperature to the hottest setting, after all, the foot bath water was supposed to be quite hot, with steam rising in a white mist.
When the time comes, pressing down on Aylin’s foot….
Sariah curled up the corner of her mouth and laughed wickedly.
In a moment, the basin was quickly filled with water, and Sariah carefully carried it out.
Although she appeared to be respectful and cautious, in reality, she was afraid of the hot water splashing out and scalding herself. After all, she had turned it to the hottest setting, and it would be quite unbearable if it touched her!
Sariah gently placed the basin down, lowering herself and adopting a humble posture. “Aylin, I’ve fetched the water for you. Let me help you take off your shoes.”
With a humble and submissive expression, it seemed as if they were genuinely afraid.
Aylin looked down at her condescendingly, her eyebrows and eyes shrouded in dense mist. As Sariah’s hand barely touched Aylin’s foot, she dodged it swiftly.
“Aylin?”
Aylin’s expression was cold, “Your hands are too icy. Warm them up in the water before touching
me.”
Sariah’s heart skipped a beat, worried that Aylin might have noticed something.
Upon glancing up, all that could be seen was Aylin’s cold and stern expression, devoid of sorrow or joy, making it impossible to discern what she was thinking.
Although the age gap between them wasn’t significant, she couldn’t see through the person standing before her at all.
There shouldn’t be any discoveries, right?
Sariah’s mind raced as she tried to please with a smile, “Well, this might not be the best idea. I can warm my hands first and then help Aylin take off her shoes.”
Aylin’s eyes narrowed, “What’s wrong with that?”
“Um… I, I’m afraid I might dirty Aylin’s water. I’ll just cover it for a bit, it’ll be quick.” Sariah said cautiously, biting her lip.
“Get dirty? Heh…”
Aylin let out a light laugh, her movements incredibly swift as she raised her hand, grabbing Sariah’s arm and plunging it directly into the footbath!
“Ah!”
