Billionaire’s Mistress

Chapter36



When I arrived at the villa, it was already eight forty-five in the morning.

Originally, I would go out at seven o’clock and arrive in fifty minutes. However, the bus was stuck in the traffic jam and couldn’t move. It was nearly an hour later than I expected.

When I entered the villa, I thought Edmund would have got up and gone to the company at this time. However, when I entered the password and unlocked the door, I saw a tall figure dressed in Khaki furniture coming downstairs.

I was shocked at first, but soon calmed down.

“You… You didn’t go to work?” I asked him when he went straight to the sofa and sat down.

“I’m not used to working when I’m hungry.” Without raising his head, he picked up the newspaper on the tea table and began to read it.

What did he mean?ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

I thought about it and suddenly realized that he was blaming me for not making breakfast for him and making him unable to go to work?

“There are so many breakfasts in the restaurant outside. It’s the same to buy one, isn’t it?” I muttered in a low voice. I always felt that he had some intention of finding fault with me.

He turned a page of the newspaper in his hand, turned his head and stared at me with his deep black eyes. He opened his thin lips slightly and said coldly, “then what’s the use of me having you?”

I’m speechless. It’s my duty to cook, and I shouldn’t have such a mentality.

“I’m going to make breakfast for you.” I turned around and was about to go to the kitchen.

“Wait a minute.” But he stopped me.

I turned around and looked at him blankly. “Mr. Edmund, what can I do for you?”

He took out a small envelope from the drawer of the tea table and handed it to me.

I took a look at it, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to take it. “What’s this?”

opened the envelope, i saw a key lying quietly inside. He poured the key into his palm and asked in confusion, “what kind of key is this?”

“I have a small apartment in the next neighborhood. You can live there from now on.” He looked back at the newspaper and said calmly.

I suddenly felt the key in my hand a little hot.

His apartment?

“No, thanks. I have a place to live.” I don’t want to accept any favors from him.

“Do you want to be late every day? Or do you want me to go out hungry every day?” He seemed to have expected that I would refuse. He put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at me with an unusually serious expression and asked.

“…” I just don’t want to have anything to do with him other than work.

“This is the employee benefit. The housekeeper provides accommodation.”

The implication is that this is not a special favor for me.

He raised his eyebrows and asked, “or do you want to live here?”

Live here?

No!

I instantly frowned and held the key tightly in my hand. “No, thanks. I’m fine as long as I live in the apartment.”

If I really live here and look at him day and night, I will be crazy.

“Good. The address is in the envelope. I’ll give you a day off today. Pack up the apartment and move everything in. I hope the breakfast is ready when I go downstairs at eight o’clock tomorrow morning.” Then he turned around and went upstairs.

Looking at the address on the envelope and the key in my hand, I sighed silently.

Sure enough, I couldn’t escape from him. But forget it. Since it was employee benefits, I will take it.

Besides, Evelyn’s house was a little far away and the house was not big. It was indeed inconvenient for two people to share a bed.

Putting the key into my bag, I left the villa and looked for the address on the envelope.

When Edmund gave me the key, he only told me that it was a small apartment.

But when I took the elevator to the top floor, I found that this apartment was almost as big as other small buildings.

The most important thing was that the house was on the top floor of the whole building, which was connected to the top. There were many kinds of precious plants on the top of the building, it was obviously a rare variety of plants, making a beautiful garden in the air.

There were even tables, chairs and swing in the garden for the owner to relax and have fun. It was so cozy.

All kinds of decorations in the room were very expensive.

Such a luxuriously decorated house was just a small apartment in Edmund’s eyes.

I sighed in my heart that I was really too young. I thought he was really just talking about a small apartment.

When I came to City Y, I didn’t bring any luggage with me. Later, I lived in the villa, and all the things were bought by Edmund. When I left, I only took a few clothes to change.

So now in Evelyn’s house, my luggage is just some clothes for changing.

I can ask Evelyn to take her to her company tomorrow.

There was no need to go there again.

It’s crowded. I can’t take a bus for forty or fifty minutes.

I turned around and looked around. There were two bedrooms, one comfortable, two bathroom, a large kitchen and a large living room. Most importantly, there was a huge balcony that could take a good look at the beautiful scenery of the whole city.

What surprised me more was that there were all kinds of daily necessities in the house.

There were towels, bath towels, sheets, quilts, skin care products, washing products, kitchen utensils and condiments, and even the fridge was full.

And they were all brand new without even removing the label.

I took a look at the brands of daily necessities. When I worked in a five star club, the cloth for the VIP rooms in their club had been specially cooperated with the big brands, so I knew more or less about those high-end brands.

So when I saw clearly the brands of the daily necessities, I realized that they must have been specially prepared for me by Edmund.

But I don’t dare to accept it.

I picked up my phone and called Edmund.

The phone was answered after two rings.

“What’s the matter?” It was his voice. It was low and steady, without any emotion.

“I can’t live in this house.”

“Why?”

“The decoration is too luxurious, and everything in it is so expensive. It’s not what a butler should enjoy.”

“Then throw those things away.” His tone suddenly became impatient and he said coldly.

“……”

“Anything else?” He asked. Obviously, he didn’t want to say anything more to me.

“Nothing.”

The phone was hung up. Looking at the luxurious and exquisite “new home” in front of me, I felt very uncomfortable.

Maybe I’m too sentimental. These things may be expensive in my eyes, but in Edmund’s eyes, they may not be.

In his position, the employees around him could afford these things.

‘forget it. Since he said it was employee welfare, I’ll take it as it.’.

Compared with the villa, living here makes me feel better.

After calming down, I went to the kitchen to get a duster cloth and wanted to clean the house.

However, no matter where the rag was wiped, it was clean. It seemed that it had been cleaned in advance.

It seems that I don’t even need to do the cleaning.

I walked to the sofa and sat down. I took out my phone and called Evelyn.

“What? Where are you moving?” Evelyn was shocked to hear that I didn’t live with her anymore.

“Mr. Edmund provided me a place to stay.”

“Oh, yes. I forgot that you are now the butler of Mr. Edmund. The Butler will live in his house.”

“I don’t live in his house. I live nearby. He arranged… The staff dormitory.” I corrected myself. I don’t want Evelyn to think of a man and a woman in a room alone.

Although this dormitory was a little luxurious, according to Edmund, it was the staff dormitory.

Sure enough, when Evelyn heard this, she was a little discouraged. “Well, I thought you were living in a villa. Well, it’s better for you to live here. You are pregnant, so you’d better not go too far.”

“Well, when you come to work tomorrow, bring me those clothes. I’ll go to your company to get them.”

“No problem. By the way, we can celebrate that you’ve found someone to settle down. Let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“Evening? Then you can only have midnight snack. You know, when I finish my work, it will be late.”

“Oh, I see. The night snack will be changed to the day after tomorrow. It’s weekend the day after tomorrow. You can sleep late. It doesn’t matter if you stay up late at night.”

“Okay.”

I had a good night with her and we went to work.

The second morning, I got up at seven o’clock on time. After washing up, I made some breakfast for myself and went straight to the villa.

Because my current residence estate is very close to the villa area. It only takes six or seven minutes to walk to the gate of the villa area.

The villa area was very large. Although there were many cars at home for people who could afford the villa, not everyone would arrange a driver for the servants. Therefore, in order to make it convenient for the owners or servants who didn’t have a car to go out temporarily, the property management arranged an electric car at the door to pick them up and send them back.

I’ve never taken an electric scooter in the villa district before. Today is the first time I enjoy the humanity service provided by the property management.

With the car, I drove very fast. Four or five minutes later, I was sent to Edmund’s villa.

It was quiet in the room. After entering the password, she went in. It was only half past seven now.

Half an hour was enough to prepare breakfast.

Edmund hadn’t got up yet. I went straight to the kitchen, opened the fridge and began to make breakfast.

When I served him as a butler in City X club, I knew his appetite.

So I made his favorite egg sandwich, matched with fresh orange juice, and made a small pot of Nancy Soup for breakfast.

As a matter of fact, I know Edmund’s taste is very picky.

But I’m not a professional cook. The food I can cook is limited, so I can only cook what I can, and he is willing to cook.

At eight o’clock in the morning, he came downstairs in pajamas on time.

He took a look at me, who was standing straight at the door of the restaurant. Without saying anything, he walked straight inside.

Breakfast was neatly placed on the table, and the newspaper of that day was folded and placed on the left side of the host seat.

I saw him sitting down, turned around and went to the kitchen. I poured a cup of coffee from the coffee machine and handed it to him.

Everything is ready. I said “please enjoy yourself” and was about to leave.

“Where are we going?” His voice sounded, probably because he just got up with a trace of fatigue, and his voice sounded a little lazy.

“Upstairs, clean up the room.” I didn’t turn around and answered in a formulaic tone.

“No hurry. Sit down and have breakfast.” He said.

“Thank you. I have already had breakfast. Besides, there is no reason for the housekeeper to have breakfast with the master. If you don’t have any other orders, I will go to do something else.” My attitude is very alienated. After that, I will leave.
