Chapter 10
Without a hint of emotion, Edwin pointed off towards a man on an apron and a bucket. He was the cleaner and had just arrived after he heard the news of the stranger and his mother, Madam Grace, being evicted from the Villa. "You wanted the person who was responsible for all these, right? There he is!"A wave of shock ran through the hall. The murmurs became prominent."Now I think Miss. Whyte got for herself a Madman instead of a .""To think that he would point at Harry out of anyone else.""I think that's it because Harry has a resemblance to Madman Grace and he wants to settle scores with her!"Harry was one of the most carefree people in the Villa. He was always doing his job properly and checking up on everyone. "You must be out of your mind!" Vivian barked."Edwin. You don't have to be under pressure. We can give you as much time as you want to do your research! Before coming to us with anything!"Harry's looks remained calm and poetic. As though he wasn't even the one who had b

Meanwhile, at the other part of the city, Vivian's assessing gaze cuts through from the head of Edwin's down to his throat, her legs tapping slightly on the floor with so much disgust. "Clara!" She called out, her voice trying to hide the disrespect in it."Are you sure that you aren't making a terrible mistake? I mean, just take a look at him. Is this the person who is supposed to help us from our recent predicament?" She hissed, still staring at Edwin from head to toe."Vivian. There aren't any mistakes here! I can tell you that I saw for myself what he is capable of!"Vivian shook her head in utter disapproval. There definitely could not be anything good in this person, who was dressed as a common cook and nothing more. "The only thing that I think he is good at is being broke and poor, Clara! We should send him away already!"Clara frowned deeply. She hates it when anyone disrespects her guests. And this time, it wasn't just any guest; it was the one who was supposed to rescue the

Emily had been trying to get Edwin on the phone. She paced through the room with her nerves pounding in her head.She had been trying to get through to Edwin on the phone to no avail.Multiple possibilities ran through her head at the instant. Each of them hit her hard like a wave of rocks. "Has something bad happened to him?" She thought the pacing of her heart increased.She sat on the bed. Her hands were on her head as it threatened to break apart. Not knowing what to do, she called her best friend, Sandra.Sandra came over quickly. A sense of urgency rose in her eyes as she quickly rushed towards where Emily sat, confused and depressed. "Are you okay? Em? You look terrible!" Emily gathered her words before finally going ahead to give a response."It's Edwin. Since he was chased out by Grandma. I haven't been able to reach out to him. I don't even know if he is dead or alive!" She gruntedHer body shuddered so heavily that she did not notice the loud hiss that escaped from the mout

A gasp ran through the hall. Eyes popped. The Whyte had always treated Madam Grace with a sense of godhood, making sure that she wasn't disturbed or made uncomfortable by anyone. "Have you gone out of your senses?" Clara growled.Madam Grace was still too shocked to give a reply. Her hands were placed firmly on her red cheeks. "Speak up?" Clara's yell shook her to her bones.She opened her mouth to speak. But her words broke up into stutters, shattering through the room. "Now you can't speak, right? After humiliating the guest that we have all been preparing for, right?" Her face clenched.Her words shot a stab right into the heart of Grace and all the other people who were around.It was now that they understood the gravity of what had been done.Before Edwin came over, everyone at the villa had been oriented on what should be done and how they should behave. A special orientation was even made for Madam Grace.This was the first time that such had happened since the time that the Wh

She was startled. Grace had been serving the Whyte family right from when she was a child, and thus, she was the longest-serving servant.Nobody had ever dared to talk back to her. Talk less of talking to her in the manner and tone that Edwin just did.Her startled face soon dissipated into one of rage. The anger added to the wrinkles that scattered throughout her skin. "Are you out of your mind, young man?" She growled.The halls were already getting filled up. Servants left their positions just to watch what was going on. "Who's that?" One of the servants inquired."I think it's a new worker. And he already had a problem with Madam Grace. Doesn't he know who she is?""You just said that he is new. So how's he supposed to know?" Another hissed."But certainly. His stay in the Villa is going to be very short. Madam Grace is treated with so much respect by the heiress because of her age. If Madam Grace wants anyone gone, then she is going to see to it!" The other worker proclaimed."Se

A whirlwind of emotions rushed over Edwin. His legs were smitten to the ground as his eyes assessed the emblem."Where did you get that from?" Edwin inquired quickly.Clara shrank back in her steps. "My father! He gave this to me, saying that you made a promise to him. He helped you with something, I don't know. This is your time to help now!""That old man. Always taking advantage of people!" Though Edwin growled inside his stomach, there was a strange warmth in his eyes."And how about your father?" Inquired Edwin.Because of the vow that he had made, they have been kept separate from each other for so long now.Edwin didn't even know that he was the leader of the Whyte family when they had met. The business group had rebranded with each industrial revolution, coming up to this point.Edwin's hands tightened. A flash of emotion that soon disappeared sprinkled in his eyes. "Are you still going to refuse to help?" Clara held her breath in anticipation."Do I have a choice!" Edwin retu
