?Episode 17?
Mr Ryan’s Pov:
I walked downstairs….
I sighted a glass of milk on the table.
I quickly picked up the glass of milk….
I was about to drink it when I suddenly heard Betty screaming at me.
“Ryan! Ryan don’t!!” She shouted as she rushed to me.
I was shocked and short of words.
Why is she being dramatic? ?
She pushed the glass away and it fell from my hand.
It broke into pieces.
I stared at her in confusion.
The maids all rushed out from the kitchen.
“What the h.ell is wrong with you Betty? Why are you being so confusing?” I asked anxiously.
She only gulped nervously breathing heavily.
“Sir that glass of milk is Julia’s” Veronica said
“I want to know why you didn’t want me to drink that milk?” I asked
“Nothing! I just don’t want you to drink what is for the nanny” She blinked her eyes continuously.
I scoffed as I shook my head.
“Really? How does that even make sense?” I asked still confused
“It’s nothing Ryan…. I just wanted you not to take things meant for low lives” She said
“Low lives indeed! But you sounded scared” I asked
“Scared? ugh…. Scared of what?” She said as she walked to the sitting room.
“How should I know? And you even broke the glass as well” I said
“Am just trying to save you from getting infested by that good for nothing nanny” She rolled her eyes.
“Infested? When did she become a pest?” I asked
“She has always been” She snorted
I heaved a sigh as I walked upstairs.
Still wondering why she acted the way she did earlier.
Yes! I know Betty despises Julia.
But I never knew it was to that extent.
I shook my head as I walked into my room.
Betty’s Pov:
I breathed heavily in relieve.
Thank goodness!
What would have been my fate if Ryan had drank that milk?
I would have lost the love of my life just because of that useless girl that calls herself Julia….
I really need to get rid of that girl fast.
The most surprising thing is that Ryan seems to be supportive of her.
I have to think of a way to get rid of that witch.
Before she finally succeed and take away my fiance.
I glanced at the wall clock.
It was past 2am but I couldn’t sleep.
How can I when I know that stupid Julia is gradually becoming a big problem to me?
I kept on thinking… ?
Until an idea popped into my head and I smiled.
“I think it’s high time I put into practice that which my friend told me” I smiled mischievously.
After this, Ryan will definitely throw that good for nothing nanny out of the mansion.
And when that happens, I can finally squeeze life out of Ella.
I bursted into laughter and sipped my glass of wine.
Julia’s Pov:
The alarm clock rang noisily ? ?
And I quickly jumped up…..
Ella has to go to school…
She can’t be late for school.
I quickly knelt beside the bed and said my short prayer before rushing out of the room.
And I didn’t forget to put on my apron.
Few minutes later, I showered my little Ella.
Put her clothes on and combed her long curly hair.
“You look absolutely stunning baby” I touched her cheek softly and she blushed.
“Thank you aunt Julia!” She smiled.
I glanced at the wall clock..
It was 6:40am..
I led her downstairs to the dinning.
Sir Ryan was already there with Betty.
“Good morning sir! Good morning Miss Betty!” I greeted.
They nodded their heads.
I helped Ella sit as she greeted too.
“How was your night baby?” Mr Ryan asked smiling
“Super daddy! I dreamt of angels” She said childishly.
“Aww… That’s great!” Sir Ryan said as my face beamed with smiles.
Our eyes caught with each others and I quickly looked away.
“Uhm… Ryan! I thought you said you are going to give me some money for my face treatment?” Betty asked anxiously
I stirred Ella’s cup of milky tea as I placed the teacup in front of her.
I placed the slice of bread and butter.
She started eating hungrily.
I smiled at her and she reciprocated.
“Oh I forgot!” Mr Ryan said as he picked up his portfolio.
He opened it and started searching for something.
“What? Where could my golden bracelet be?” He alarmed
He sounded really very angry.
My heart skipped…
“What? That bracelet that cost a fortune?” Betty exclaimed
“No! I can’t take this!” He shouted as he banged on the table and got up angrily.
**
The maids were all summoned to stand round the sitting room.
We shivered in fear.
“Where is my golden bracelet?” Mr Ryan asked with a stern voice.
We were all stammering in so much fear.
“I SAID WHERE IS MY BRACELET?” This time his voice was so mean.
Our legs became jelly in shock.
“Sir! I saw her… I saw her steal the bracelet” One of the maids Cassandra said
We became stunned.
“Who did she see?” We thought ?
“Who are talking about?” Mr Ryan asked anxiously
“Sir it’s… It’s…” She stammered
“It’s who?” He yelled at her.
“It’s Julia sir!” She said as my eyes widened in shock.
Before I could say a word, the guards were already searching me.
“I didn’t…” I said as the golden bracelet fell from my pocket….
