Fake Promise

Just as Loveth raised her head upwards to stared at Mrs Eleanor, Mrs Eleanor noticed the look of sadness in Loveth's eyes.

"Are you alright, why do you look so sad?."

"Am fine ma," Loveth quickly replied and stared downward and wanted to leave, but Mrs Eleanor stopped her with her questions.

"You don't lie to me you're alright, when you look these horrible?. What went wrong?."

"Nothing ma.. Am fine, just in my period" Loveth lied and Mrs Eleanor felt relieved hearing she was on her menstrual cycle.

"Is alright, you can leave, and return back to your room, I will see you tomorrow about what I want to discuss with you, and send for Aria to come downstairs."

"Okay ma." Loveth was grateful and she immediately exited the living room not daring to stare backwards to the three seated as she made her way to the elevator and went upstairs to the second floor.

Willow didn't liked how Mrs Eleanor cared for Loveth but there was nothing she could do, as she didn't even have any concrete evidence to send the maid away.

She stared to Patrick whom was silent all thru and she couldn't tell if for real Patrick was attracted to the maid or not.

Patrick didn't kissed her in return when he had arrived and he even appeared stiffed to her kiss, when she kissed him welcome and she couldn't tell if it was because of that yellow maid's presence.

She needed to do her findings and send the pretty maid away, before she would snatched Patrick away from her.

She loved Patrick and she knew she made a terrible mistake cheated on him with Tony and she truly regretted doing that.

She thought to see him as soon as dinner was over to discuss with him and to probably get him to make love to her, as her mother already advised her to get pregnant for him.

She wasn't on any pregnancy control pills and she had taken it off, but didn't knew if she could conceive yet as she had only taken it off, the two previous days ago.

She sighed and resumed eating her meal while the dinning room fell in silence.

Loveth returned back upstairs and Nora stared to her in irritation as Nora was already thru tidying up the boss's room and the rest of the floors, keeping the house neat and sitting in the maid's lounge.

She hated Loveth and stared away from the pretty as Loveth walked up to Aria's room door thru the corridor leading to all the rooms and knocked on Aria's door.

Aria pulled the door opened thinking Nora was the one knocking, but seeing Loveth, her brows furrowed and she immediately questioned her, "What're you doing here?."

"Madam sent for you to come downstairs" Loveth replied.

"Hmmm" Aria frowned and watched Loveth leave and she shook her head irritably as she walked out and made her way downstairs.

Patrick was already thru eating and he picked up the dinning table serviette to dap the corners of his mouth and he watched Aria approaching them.

He knew Aria to be the cause as to why Loveth was sad and he thought to send her away.

"Aria right?" Patrick spoked, surprising Aria whom stared to him in shocked.

"Your services here are all okay, but you have overstayed your welcome. Tomorrow I want you to pack your bags and leave back to your family house, you will be compensated for all the good years you've served us dearly."

Aria gasped in shock and she immediately knelt down, even though she was a year older than Patrick, he was still her boss.

"Please sir, I don't want to leave yet" Aria pleaded, but Patrick shook his head while Mrs Eleanor swallowed and Willow only stared to the maid in her pink maid uniform begging.

"Son, you cannot send her away yet, not when we don't have a new maid yet!" Mrs Eleanor refused.

"But mom.." Patrick frowned.

"No but, I only summoned her to clear the dinning table. Don't you see Loveth is unwell and sad. If you send Aria away now then the work will become too much on Loveth and the rest. Maybe when you employ a new maid, Aria can leave as she has really tried, staying long here with us."

Patrick sighed heavily and nodded. "Is alright mom, she can stay."

Aria breathed out in relief and she stood up to clear the dinning table. Her heart was still clearly racing loudly in her chest, and she stared downwards as she felt sober. She still wanted to work in the Anderson's mansion even though she has come off age. She was interested in Patrick, but since Patrick didn't wanted her, she hoped he didn't employed any new maids yet as her job was still assisting her family and she doubted she could get any profitable job aside that as she didn't have any qualified certificate to help her.

Willow sighed and she shifted her gazed away from Aria whom left to the kitchen to returned the dirty used plate and to wash it out, and she stared up to Patrick whom stood up to leave.

"Son, I still want to speak to you about something" Mrs Eleanor spoked and Patrick sighed, seeing there was still time, he sat back and stared to his mother.

"What do you want to discuss with me about mom?" Patrick asked as he settled back on his seat and Mrs Eleanor smiled.

"Is about the marriage date son. What else?."

Patrick groaned and stared to Willow whom smiled.

"Fine, mom, we will go to see her family, but that will be in two months time" Patrick spoked making Willow's beautiful smile on her brown face to disappeared immediately away from her face as she frowned.

"Why son?. Are you both having any issues?" Mrs Eleanor quickly asked, with a serious frowned on her face.

"No mom. Not that, I've some business to deal with for now and marriage is the least on my list for now. Beside Willow is already here with me, is just to get the marriage certificate." Patrick smirked and Willow swallowed not knowing what to say as she immediately stared downwards, avoiding Mrs Eleanor's gazed on her, but Patrick immediately spoked, "We've already discussed about it mom, in two months time we will go to her family house, to officially do the Introduction ceremony."

"Hmph, Okay son. Am glad to here that, besides two months isn't far from now" Mrs Eleanor smiled in relief but Willow wasn't happy about it, she faked a smile and as she saw Patrick stood up, she immediately stood up too, to follow him upstairs to his chambers.

"Good night mom" Patrick spoked and Mrs Eleanor smiled, "Yes good night."

"Goodnight ma" Willow smiled to Mrs Eleanor too whom smiled back to her, and Mrs Eleanor watched them exit the dinning room and to the living room, as Aria returned back to the dinning room as she was thru in the kitchen, Mrs Eleanor spoked to her, "Prepare my bath, I will like to have a goodnight bath."

"Okay ma."

Patrick took the elevator and Willow stepped in with him, but he kept mute and knew she might be upset about the two months prolonged date, but he did that to be sure, she wasn't pregnant for Tony and wanted to shove it to him.

"Babe, we need to talk" Willow spoked as soon as they both walked out to the fourth floor were his rooms was.

"About what, haven't we discussed about it all?" Patrick questioned irritably but Willow quickly replied him, "No. We haven't."

"Hmm" Patrick walked into his sitting room and he took off his blue sleeves and he stared to Willow whom walked up to meet him.

Willow stared to his bare chest, feeling subtly turned on, but as she wanted to touch Patrick's chest, Patrick gripped her hand away and stared to her angrily.

"I have been enduring you, not because I forgave you, you would now think I have fully accepted you. First, we ain't gonna do anything till two months time, that I've fully confirmed that you ain't pregnant for Tony.'

"Huh!." Willow's jaw dropped and she stared frowned at him.

"Why?, two months is too long, I can run a pregnancy test tomorrow, am not pregnant and am serious" Willow spoked.

"I know. But I still need to be sure, how am I sure you haven't contacted any disease with him, or do you want me to replay the xx tape for you to see for yourself. You had an unprotected coitus with him and you want to contradict my life, Two months is enough to find out, I will just endure kissing you because I still love you, but if you ain't okay with my decision, you can as well, go back to Tony."

Patrick stared away from her, and Willow sighed heavily as she had no other option, "Fine, I will wait till then, but you will also promise me you won't cheat on me."

Patrick stared back to her.

"Fine, I won't" he spoked and walked away to his inner rooms.
