Bursting into tears, Mrs Maggie smiled, "Thank you ma'am." About to kneel again but Jin-joo quickly stopped her.

"No no no, don't kneel for me, okay? And one more thing, I want you to take a week leave."

Pointing at herself, she gasped, "Me, a week leave?" Mrs Maggie rarely receives holidays from her boss and his mother. Though they are nice people but not nicer than Jin-joo. Ever since she joined them in the mansion, it was like Christ came to live with them.

"Yes, I personally is permitting you to take a week leave. Don't worry about what Seb or aunt are gonna think or say. I'll take care of that myself." Jin-joo smiled.

"Thank you ma'am, you're such a nice woman."

"You too." Jin-joo chuckled. "Make sure Sebastian and Aunt doesn't finds out about the compensation."

Vigorously nodding her head, "They won't, ma'am."

"So tell me, what happened during my absence?" Jin-joo inquired before crossing her legs and sipping from her juice.

Taking deep breath, Mrs Maggie explained, "Ma'am, after you and boss left the mansion, a man came in. Claiming he was here to see madame. Suddenly, I overheard madame raising her voice at him."

When Jin-joo slack-jawed her mouth and slowly dropped down the glass, she continued, "And thereafter, I heard him telling madame to get back to him. From the tone of his conversation, I could boldly tell that he was madame's ex husband."

"Hang on a sec, did Mr Flynn came to see Aunt Petra here in the mansion?" Jin-joo gasped.

"Exactly ma'am, you just reminded me of his name according to madame, he was addressed as Grayson Flynn." She smiled.

Expanding the astonish expression on her face, Jin-joo looked around and turn towards her, "Are you serious with what you just said?"

"Of course ma'am, I am a hundred percent sure. In fact when the conversation got tough just like the phrase 'When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.' Madame lost her control and stabbed him five times on his right rib."

"OMG!" Jin-joo exclaimed and threw her hands into her mouth.

"We had to call for the ambulance as soon as possible."

"Wh–Where is he right now? Is he okay?" Jin-joo panickly inquired. She still can't believe what Mrs Maggie just told her. With the few months she had become mutual friends with Petra, she could tell that woman can't hurt a fly.

Shrugging her shoulders, Mrs Maggie sighed and helplessly shook her head, "He has been admitted at the hospital and madame is with him. She hasn't returned since the incident–"

Cutting her off, Jin-joo covered her mouth, "Seb's aunt and uncle knew about this as well, because they lied to Seb that Aunt went for a seminar––Listen, I want you to keep this a secret. Beside you, me and the guards who knew about this, no other person should find out. Not even Sebastian or Nelly."

Mrs Maggie smiled and nodded her head.

Taking her hand off her mouth, Jin-joo ran her hands through her hair, "Oh my God, this is not good at all. Why did Aunt Petra did such a thing? I can't believe my ears. If Sebastian finds out about this, he is going to sue his father to court for stepping his foot into this mansion."

"Ma'am, I know my boss is capable of doing anything. That was the reason why I asked the guards to keep it."

"I guess that's the same reason why they told me instead of Sebastian. Because if he had found out, they'll be doomed as well."

"Will they?"

"Not just them but you, the helpers, cleaners, butlers, bakers and chefs too." Burying her head in her palms, Jin-joo sighed, "Aunt Petra why did you do it?"

Lifting her head, she ran her hands through her face and took a deep breath, "It's alright, it has happened."

"Madame is a good woman, I guess that's the only reason why her name is not on the headlines or under custody." Mrs Maggie sighed.

"Sebastian and Nelly must not find out about this, is that clear?"

"Yes ma'am." She lowered her head.

"If Sebastian comes across this issue, I bet he won't think twice before gunning his father on the sickbed." When Mrs Maggie widening her eyes in shock, she scoffed, "Seems like you still don't know your boss. He is capable of doing it. The few time we've spent in our relationship, I could tell who he really is."

"But ma'am, boss is no longer cruel as before when I started working for him. He has automatically became a change person since you came into his life. I can honestly boast of that." Mrs Maggie defended.

Letting out a chuckle, Jin-joo patted her shoulder, "Mrs Maggie, please go to bed. You have a long ride to your place tomorrow morning. So go take a rest now."

Giving her a smile, "Thank you so much ma'am. Can I hug you?"

"Of course sure, why not." Jin-joo chuckled and hugged her. Patting her back, "Go to bed early, so you could wake up on time."

Pulling away, she nodded with a smiling face and made her way towards her room upstairs.

Glaring at the wall clock, Jin-joo arced her back on the couch. "7:30pm, he should be on his way now." Letting out a wide yawn, "Wow wow, Rubie and Max slept so early. It's not even late that much. I guess that's how they sleep so early in London."

"Hey darling," Sebastian walked into the mansion, "Miss me?"

"Seb, you're back." She rushed towards him. Pouncing on him with her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms hooked around his neck, "Of course I missed you."

"Ouch–" He winced in a very low tone.
