"Ah?" I was stunned, saying, "Can you come back and pick me up?"
The driver immediately refused, "No! I have another order to take!"
Then he hung up the call directly.
"I'm the one who let him go."
I was confused. Then Patrick's voice rang behind me.
Looking back, I saw Patrick sitting in a wheelchair with a gloomy look on his face.
I frowned slightly, "Why did you do so? Mr. Cowell."
After making up my mind to leave, I changed how I addressed him and no longer called him Master.
Hearing my address, Patrick narrowed his eyes slightly.
He lowered his eyes and said after a long while, "The online car-hailing is not safe."
"Is it because of this?"
Hearing his words, I looked at him with some inquiry in my eyes, "Then how should I leave?" "Jeremy will come here to report to me tomorrow.
I will let him take you away then."
Upon finishing his words, he turned around and left in his wheelchair.
He left me only a view of his back.
"Oh."
Watching him leave, I felt extremely wronged in my heart.
From yesterday till today, I had been thinking to myself, "We have been working so hard for such a long time. After you are injured, which is a trivial matter, how come we can no longer move on?"
Even so, that was the truth. And I had tried my best.
I, who wasn't a maid anymore today, no longer needed to put on the clothes for maids.
Having finished my work in advance yesterday, I was idle today.
I had roamed around the manor yesterday.
After lunch, I couldn't stay in the room anymore. Somehow, I went up to the second floor.
By this time, Patrick surely had finished his lunch and stayed in his room.
When I went up to the second floor, I didn't see Tillie.
'Could it be that she was in Patrick's room?'
'Well... that is possible. After all, they...'
Thinking about this, I felt a burst of uneasiness in my heart. Gently raising my hand and clenching it into a fist, I wanted to knock on the door.
'However, if the two of them happen to make love in the room and I just go in like this, won't I disturb them from having fun?'
'Forget it.'
I turned to leave...
"Bang!"
A loud noise came from inside the room!
For a moment, I was anxious!
"Patrick Cowell!"
I was so scared that I knocked on the door in a hurry!
However, no one responded from inside or came to open the door.
I tried to open the door, only to find that the door had been locked.
"What's wrong?"
At this moment, Tillie's voice came from behind me.
I looked back and saw Tillie standing behind me. Upon seeing me, she was somewhat surprised.
I vaguely felt that this sound was similar to the one when Patrick had fallen off the wheelchair back then.
Fearing that something would happen to Patrick, I said quickly, "There was a noise inside the room just now. I don't know what happened!"
"Really?" Upon hearing what I said, Tillie was nervous. She quickly went to the door and wanted to open it.
"The door is locked. Do you have the key?"
Tillie shook her head.
"Don't you have one?" I was a little surprised, "Then who has the key here?"
"I'll go ask!"
