Expelled

PLAKKK

The sound of a slap sounded loud in the Wilson mansion, the sweet twenty-seven year old girl's cheeks were red and the corners of her lips were cracked.

"Get out of this house, never again to set foot in the Wilson family residence if you can't return the favor." rebuked the middle-aged man who had just landed a hard slap on the cute girl's cheek.

But the girl didn't react even just to wince, especially if she had to cry. Joana would never do it.

"Dad, papa slapped Joana too much." a man about twenty years old helped Joana to her feet.

"You say papa is outrageous? She is too much. Don't want to marry a friend of papa's son even though he is young and also very rich." Mr. Wilson's breath was erratic, holding back the anger that had not yet fully overflowed.

"If he doesn't want to be in exchange for the survival of our family, even for his life. Let him out of this house." the final host in the end while pointing at Joana.

"But pa ...." the young man's words stopped when his arm was rubbed by Joana, the girl shook her head so that there would be no more debate.

"Well if that's the only decision, I'm happy to get out of this hell." Joana said sarcastically as she looked at Wilson and also the two women of different ages on the stairs who were just spectators.

"But sis ...."

"It's good that you are self-conscious, now get out of this house. And one more thing, if you step foot out of here then your name is no longer Joana Maxwell Wilson even if you look for work in a remote corner of town you will never get a job." arrogant host with his hands on his hips.

"I also don't want to bear Wilson's name behind my name, today I am Joana Maxwell and I am no longer part of the Wilson family. Don't worry, whether or not Wilson's status is in my name. I have remained an independent child from the past and also I can try myself even though you are closing all offices or even small businesses to accept me to work" said Agatha as she walked away from the house that felt like hell for her.

"Sis ..." prevented the young man who had been holding Joana from leaving, Joana smiled at her brother. "Take care of yourself Garry, i loves you." Joana said while hugging her younger brother who cared so much for him, only him younger brother was humanizing herself in this house, while the two female monsters of different ages just smiled cynically while holding their chests to look at Joana. They are the hostess as well as her daughter.

After removing her arms from Garry, Joana left the house without looking back, there was no hesitation in her as she left the Wilson residence. Instead, she seemed to be free from the hell that other people call his home and family.

Joana stepped in the dark night that embraced her with cold air, Joana did not bring a jacket let alone other clothes to ward off the cold that felt increasingly bone-chilling, the London air tonight was cold enough to make Joana shiver.

As if the world was not on her side, the rain actually fell as Joana fought the cold that was getting more and more suffocating. She ran to the bus stop waiting for the rain to stop, Joana was confused about where to go. Without a single penny, also without a piece of clothing just to change.

Joana surrendered in the dark night, she wanted to cry but also wanted to laugh at the same time.

Wanting to cry because he lamented his life which was always difficult even when he bore the name Wilson, other people thought that he was the princess of the Wilson kingdom but in fact it was not.

Wanted to laugh, mocking himself who was always unlucky. Even now it's cold under the shelter of the bus stop, Joana has resigned herself to having to freeze to death tonight.

But at least she could breathe a sigh of relief that she had left the Wilson family who was arbitrarily against her, and often Joana thought that she was really Edrick Wilson's daughter? Why did he treat his brother and sister so differently?

Not wanting to think about that, Joana hugged herself, which was getting colder, the rain that was pouring down on the city was getting heavier. Rubbing hands creates warm air but it doesn't help much.

He was no longer able to withstand the cold that was tormenting him more and more, his body was shaking and shivering, his face was as pale as cotton, his consciousness was also getting thinner. When she was on the edge of Joana's faint consciousness seeing a man running from her car, she couldn't see anymore. Joana was unconscious when the man came to her.

Edgar Kenedy has just returned from the club he manages, in the middle of the road it was raining heavily, Edgar had wanted to stop for a moment considering the slippery road conditions were prone to accidents, when he glanced to the left right at the bus stop he saw a woman shivering with cold.

Edgar went downstairs to give the woman a lift or just a warm coat.

But the more Edgar looked at the woman's body the more it swayed, Edgar ran trying to reach the woman's cold body. But apparently the woman was unconscious.

Edgar immediately checked the woman's heart rate and pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief that the woman he was helping was still alive.

Edgar brought the unnamed woman into the car, providing first aid to the woman.

Luckily Edgar brought a thick coat, Edgar quickly covered the girl with his coat, turned on the car heater, he decided to bring a woman who was better than when he helped to his mansion.

Edgar's Lamborghini Aventador sports car drove under the rain which had turned into small drizzles, it didn't take long for the car to be parked in the courtyard of his mansion.

Take the girl to the nearest guest room for treatment. Edgar called several maids to change the girl's clothes.

Edgar himself went to his room to take a shower and change clothes. Finished with his business he returned to monitor the girl whose name he did not know.

He's feeling better, but he's still unconscious. But soon the girl's eyelids moved slowly. Edgar smiled, "are you awake Miss?"

While the girl closed her eyes again, remembering where she was now. "Master, thank you for helping me." he told Edgar

"Don't be shy, what's your name?" asked Edgar.

"Agatha." replied the girl named Agatha. Edgar smiled in response. "Get some rest Agatha, it's getting late."

Agatha glanced at the clothes she was wearing had changed, "Don't worry, I'm not the one who changed your clothes but the maids." Edgar said after seeing the look on Agatha's face.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you again sir." Edgar just nodded as he walked out of Agatha's room.

After Edgar's death, Agatha lay down on the bed she was currently in, feeling grateful to meet someone as good as Edgar who was willing to help even they didn't know each other before. Again Agatha closed her eyes enjoying Edgar's soft mattress.

***

Edgar walked to the balcony of the room carrying a glass of wine in his hand, he again imagined the face of his long gone lover, Emily.

When he saw Joana, the girl's calm face made him recall all the sweet memories of being with Emily. "I missed you Emily." said Edgar as he took a sip of wine.

The morning greeted the world with such a bright sun, Edgar met Joana in her room. Seen Joana just finished bathing and changing clothes. "Feeling better Joana?" Edgar asked as he approached the girl.

"It's getting better sir, it's all thanks to you. Thank you very much." Joana said with a smile.

"No need to be so formal with me, just call me Edgar or Edy," asked Edgar.

Joana nodded assent to Edgar's request. "Let's have breakfast." invite Edgar who was followed by Joana.

Breakfast was served with several versions, but Joana's choice fell on her favorite peanut butter sandwich. Without shame, especially jaim, Joana devoured some of the bread, making Edgar chuckle at Joana's behavior as if she hadn't eaten for a week. Instead of stopping, Joana asked Edgar.

"Is something wrong Eddie?" Joana asked with her mouth full, making Edgar laugh instantly, making the maids smile to see their master laughing again after the departure of his lover five years ago. Basically Edgar is a man who has a warm personality. But after Emily's departure, Edgar became quiet.

The maids pray for their master to always be happy.

"You're so cute Joana, haven't you eaten for a week?" asked Edgar, still laughing.

Joana realized her behavior blushed, "ah ... I'm sorry Edy."

"No need to apologize, what's wrong with you that you have to apologize?"

"I can't control myself if I come across a nut-flavoured food."

"You like peanuts?" Edgar asked why Joana's straightforward attitude and her love of nuts was exactly the same as Emily's.

"Yes, my favorite peanut butter is Edy." Edgar nodded, continuing his breakfast in silence after the discussion.

Edgar went to the hospital where he worked after finishing breakfast with Joana.

Joana helped the maids clean the cutlery even though they had forbidden it.
