Never Love a Maid Chapter 7
"Why have you only just returned now?" Gina's voice echoed in my ears the moment I crossed the threshold.Cameron paid no attention to her and continued working. Clearly, the question was not meant for him, but for me.I held back from sighing. Wasn't it obvious that Cameron and I went out? Undoubtedly, she was well aware of this fact. Yet, she seemed determined to make things difficult for me, which shouldn't come as a surprise."You're a mother," she snapped, noticing my lack of response. "You should start acting like one. You left your two kids behind and went out to party. You should be ashamed of yourself. Look at the time you're coming back home."She walked over to where I stood and sniffed the air. Instantly, her hand shot up to cover her nose, and she gave me a disgusted look. "I can even smell alcohol on you. How irresponsible can you get?"Last time I checked, drinking wasn't illegal. I'm no longer a minor. I couldn't help but wonder what the actual problem was here. Was th

As per usual upon awakening, Cameroon was nowhere to be discovered. I had grown accustomed to this, so I didn't let it bother me too much. With a yawn, I rose from my bed and proceeded to change into my morning attire. Descending the stairs, I entered the kitchen in search of sustenance. For some inexplicable reason, I awoke that morning with an insatiable hunger.I found myself in the kitchen, devouring a sandwich, when Blair stormed in with a scowl etched upon her face. "First thing in the morning and you're already on a food hunt. I wonder if you were deprived of nourishment as a child," she sneered.Choosing to ignore her snide comment, I continued to quietly consume my sandwich. I lacked the energy to engage in an argument, especially not this morning. Blair seemed frustrated by my lack of response and forcefully shoved me aside as she walked past. However, even this act failed to elicit a reaction from me.Coming to a halt, she turned to face me. "By the way, I hope you haven't

Furious, Gina's question halted me in my tracks. Did she not realize that I was not wanted here? Yet, I was forced to remain still and endure their nonsense. How is any of this fair?Silently, I returned to my seat and she nodded in approval. A few chuckles filled the air, and I hung my head in embarrassment.I overheard someone mention that she was once a maid of this family. "You are kind enough to have accepted her as your daughter-in-law," they said. “I couldn't imagine my mother tolerating it. Gina, you are a good woman.”Internally, I rolled my eyes at the remark. Good woman, my ass. If it weren't for Cameron threatening to leave, she would never have agreed to this marriage. Even now, her daughter and she were actively trying to push me out and make my life a living hell. They were probably aware of it, but since I was once a maid, nobody gave a damn. I was lucky enough to have been accepted into the family.The rest of breakfast passed peacefully, with me being shoved to the s

“Pardon me-” I was on the verge of raising my objections until I found myself face to face with none other than the very woman I had spotted with Cameron at the recent party, Helen or whatever her name was. It caught me off guard, but I swiftly regained my composure, carefully selecting my words.Yet, before I could utter a single syllable, she parted her lips and accused me of having a penchant for pilfering what rightfully belonged to her. I knew exactly what she was alluding to, but no matter how incensed I felt, I struggled to rein in my anger."You can keep the dress," I offered, turning away to make my exit. However, she grasped my arm, preventing my departure. I slowly lifted my gaze, meeting her eyes, and within them, I detected an intense yearning."What about returning what you've snatched from me?" she confidently declared, raising an eyebrow.Shrugging off her touch, I stood tall. "Madam, I have not stolen a thing from you. In fact, I don't even know who you are. As for th

The expression etched on his face conveyed everything I needed to understand. As he parted his lips to speak, a sudden, sharp knock on the window shattered my attention. I turned to the side, only to discover Helen standing there with an air of pride. Naturally, I had no choice but to step out, causing her to take a step back upon seeing me. Cameron trailed behind me, arrogantly pushing me aside as if I were inconsequential. He reached for Helen's hand and apologized for the unfortunate incident between her and me. Saying I must have mistaken Helen for some random woman at the store, Cameron assured her that he had spoken to me and resolved the matter. "History won't repeat itself, will it, darling?" he questioned, and I could do nothing but nod in response. However, Helen interjected, asserting that a mere apology was not enough. She insisted that Cameron witness the way his wife had spoken to her, all because she desired the same dress. Meanwhile, Helen had been the one to lay her

My ears reached their breaking point, unable to bear another word. I stood my ground, refusing to yield to their demands. I declared that I would not apologize to this woman, for I am not at fault. I firmly believe I have done nothing to be sorry for. They cannot bully me into agreeing to something I did not do. I will not apologize, and that is my final decision."What did you just say?" He questioned, but his words felt more like a threat. Despite this, I refused to let it affect me. "You heard me right, dear husband. Since our marriage is merely a facade and you have no qualms admitting it in front of others, you shouldn't be so bothered. After all, we are only together for the sake of the children."He appeared utterly dumbfounded, as if he couldn't fathom that those words came from me. Honestly, I couldn't believe it myself. I don't know where this courage has come from. Perhaps it's the way she stares at me with a smug grin on her face, or the audacity with which she shamelessly

In a matter of moments, we arrived home without a word. I stepped out of the car, expecting to be left to my own devices. But to my surprise, Cameron followed closely behind, grabbing my hand and forcefully guiding me inside. I didn't resist, knowing exactly what awaited me. Rather than dread the experience, I found myself anticipating it, much to his satisfaction. He believed this to be an appropriate form of punishment, little did he know, I was beginning to enjoy and look forward to it.As soon as we entered, Gina blocked our path, demanding to know where I had been. Before I could respond, Cameron dismissed her with a wave of his hand and continued on. I witnessed the shock ripple through her chest as he brushed past. She screamed, calling him crazy for his lack of attention towards his own mother, but he paid her no mind. He dragged me up the stairs, locking the door behind us, his eyes burning into me with a menacing glare. I didn't need to be told what to do; I immediately bega

As I rushed to the babies' room, my heart raced with double the worry. I scoopedthem both into my arms, cooing softly and trying to comfort them, but their cries only seemed to intensify, echoing off the walls of the room."What's wrong, my darlings?" I whispered, my voice filled with concern. "Why won't you stop crying?"But they continued to wail, their tiny bodies writhing in discomfort. Panic surged within me as I desperately searched for any sign of what could be causing their distress. And then, I saw it a faint red mark on one of their shoulder bones.My breath caught in my throat as I gently touched the mark, my mind racing with fear and confusion. How had they gotten hurt? Was someone else here? Thethought sent a shiver down my spine, and I scanned the room frantically, my eyes darting from corner to corner in search of any sign of danger.But there was nothing, just the stillness of the night and the sound of my babies' cries. Holding them close, I whispered soothing words
