When I stood at the door, a bodyguard opened the door for me and asked, "Are you a new servant?"
"Yes."
I deliberately lowered my voice.
Fortunately, it was exceptionally cold today. Even if I wrapped myself up like a dumpling and only showed my eyes, the bodyguards did not doubt me.
He open the door after looking at me for a few more seconds.
This time, he didn't take me to the living room. Instead, he took me to the servant room in the corner and arranged a room for me. He said impatiently, "First change your clothes and then follow me to see the young master."
I nodded.
There were probably seven or eight servant rooms in this manor.
The one arranged for me by the bodyguards is the one closest to the door.
I quickly took off my jacket and put on a uniform for servants. Then I put on the flat-toned glasses that I had prepared long ago.
As soon as I went out, she lowered her head.
The bodyguard did not find out anything. As soon as I went out, he said impatiently, "Why are you so slow? You must do things faster in the future. Our young master bad-tempered."
I lowered my head and just said, "Yes, I know."
The bodyguard didn't seem to doubt me at all.
He took me to the second floor, and I saw an elevator nearby. I found it was a new one at first glance.
We did not take the elevator, but take the stairs.
The bodyguard led me to the innermost room on the second floor. After arriving at the door, he knocked on the door several times. Before the people inside responded, he said, "Sir, the new servant is here."
It was still quiet inside. No one answered.
The bodyguard waited with me for a while, and then reached out and pushed the door open. Then he said to me, "Go in and help him take a bath first."
"Yes."
I went in obediently.
There was a large balcony in the room. Patrick was sitting in a wheelchair, facing the balcony with his back to me, motionless.
I stood where I was. When I was hesitating if to come forward, he asked first, "Did my mother send you here?"
"Yes."
I lowered my voice and answered very softly. I was afraid that Patrick would find out it's me.
Although, this matter would happen eventually.
Patrick didn't seem to discover this. He asked again, "Did my mother told you what do you need to do?"
"Yes."
I spoke very quickly. I was afraid that Patrick could hear my voice and drove me out immediately.
The man nodded and said, "Take me to the bathroom. Help me take a bath first."
I walked over, grabbed the handle of the wheelchair with both hands, and pushed him into the bathroom.
I looked down and saw a white thing on the man's hair. After carefully distinguishing it, I recognized it was probably because the hair cleaning foam was not washed off.
In Patrick's current state, it was definitely a troublesome thing to bathe.
I helped him into the bathroom.
The bathroom was enormous. There was a huge triangular bathtub in it. Beside it was a large piece of glass. Outside was the back garden of the manor. The design allowed him to enjoy the scenery of the garden when taking a bath.
After entering, I stood still, and Patrick didn't seem to be angry. He said, "Did my mother invite you here to let you stand there?"
