Chapter 27
3rd Person POV
After accidentally meeting Grant in the garden, Krisna was flustered while she ran back inside the mansion. Her cheeks were crimson red when she had her way back to their room to unpack Asthrid’s bags. Her mind couldn’t stop thinking as to why Alpha Grant was staring blankly at her face earlier. She was not used to be looking at a guy like that as if he wanted to say something to her. She actually wanted to ask him further, but she felt like the Alpha would start to get annoyed, and she might just be killed in no time. How would she be able to escape after then?
“What is with your ugly face, trash?” Asthrid welcomed her with an awful greeting as soon as Krisna opened the door to the room. She was on the bed, making herself busy with something else.
Although she had always wanted to say something back at her, she still couldn’t because she had to extend her patience more to make her escape successful. “N-Nothing, Ms. Olimp.” She said in a low tone of voice with a weakling facial expression.
Asthrid just rolled her eyes heavenwards while she was reading a magazine. Her back was leaning on the headboard with her feet crossed together. “Ugh. Then you should fix that face of yours. It keeps on annoying me.” She told her like it was just the usual thing to say. But to Krisna, it was okay because she was so used to it that it didn’t bother her anymore. How could she not be used to it if she was able to hear unpleasant words from Asthrid every single day of her life?
“Y-Yes, Ms. Olimps. I’m sorry.” She thriftily said and bowed her head slowly.
She then again rolled her eyes and hissed. She put down the magazine she was reading and focused on looking at Krisna. Her eyes could even kill people right now, but Krisna wouldn’t even budge. She would only give off a neutral facial expression. “Tsk, you’re so useless. Aren’t you being sneaky lately? Why don’t you start unpacking my things? You’re too lazy, like, obviously lazy!” She told her in a slightly raised voice. Krisna didn’t answer her, and she would only listen to her grunting because nothing could help the situation to be better especially if she would talk back.
A moment later, when Krisna was just nodding and agreeing to Asthrid, she began to stand up and walked over in her direction. “I will let it pass for now, even if you’re just a useless maid. I will go out for a while, and when I come back, I want my things ready. This luggage should already be unpacked. Do you understand me, although you’re obviously stupid?” She asked with her looking down at Krisna and her brows arched upward.
Krisna was still holding back to her senses. She shouldn’t do things that would destroy the entire plan for her plan. Escape Asthrid Olimp’s lair and be free. She smiled at Asthrid as if it didn’t affect her. “Of course, Ms. Olimp, I do understand every word you said. Count on me.” She told her with a huge smile on her face. Krisna was looking undistressed, which was making Asthrid annoyed with her face even more. She knew the fact that Krisna was so beautiful, and she abhorred it.
Because she didn’t want to get any wrinkles just before the Annual Pack Gathering, Asthrid also tried her best not to make her night miserable. She just scoffed and instantly went outside the room to get some fresh air.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
She took a deep breath after Asthrid got out of the room. “What a load of sh– My life sucks!” She exclaimed out of the blue when her gaze turned to look at the luggage Asthrid had. She almost forgot that Asthrid got so much with her for this upcoming Annual pack gathering that she almost had no space inside their car.
Krisna started to walk over to the corner where Asthrid’s luggage was placed. “I don’t think I can finish unpacking these before she comes back. Just who does she think I am? I’m no superhero.” She ranted to herself as she bent over to the floor to start unpacking the luggage before Asthrid would even turn into a real beast.
After opening the first three pieces of luggage, she was stunned by what she saw. “These are all useless. Is she going to use all of these here? The ball is only a night, not a month.” She said while staring at the things Asthrid packed back home. Some of them were different kinds of wigs, accessories, stilettos, and a couple of designs of gowns. “It seems like she got her entire closet in here.” She commented sarcastically.
About an hour or two had already passed, and Krisna still had some more stuff to unpack. Time just flew too fast, and she wasn’t able to notice the time. However, it felt like it was only a few minutes because she was too busy unpacking Asthrid’s things.
After a while, while Krisna was about to hang the gowns very carefully when the door opened, and a very loud bang shut the door close. She knew by that action that it was Asthrid who went inside the room.
Krisna looked back to greet Asthrid, but what she got was a very firm slap on her right cheek. Asthrid was looking really furious like she always did. However, Krisna felt that slap this time, and she knew that she was serious. Just like before, blood came dripping from Krisna’s lips, but this time it was quite a bit more. Her anger issues went up suddenly, but she knew that she had to stay calm as much as she could.
“Didn’t I tell you to finish cleaning these up before I even got here?! Can’t you really do your job, right?! You’re so dumb for a maid!” Asthrid shouted at her at the top of her lungs. She had finally gone berserk while Krisna was only looking at her with a neutral facial expression like she was always doing.
