Chapter 118

“I said get out.” I turned my head away. “I don’t want to look at you anymore.”

Gabriel chuckled. “Ah, no Lama Voice this time?”

“I’m just asking you to leave. Please.”

For a moment, I thought he might refuse just topite me. But then he shrugged and headed toward the door. “Oh, before I forget. Alexander arranged for you to have some help during your… ‘recovery’. A new maid.”

He opened the door and gestured to someone in the hallway. A young woman stepped into the room, and I immediately felt every one of my insecurities come rushing back.

She was gorgeous. Probably no older than nineteen, with long brunette hair and bright blue eyes. Her figure was perfectly proportioned, and he moved into the room with graceful ease like she belonged here.

And worst of all… She looked just like fucking Sophia.

“This is Sarah,” Gabriel said. “She’ll be taking care of you while you’re allegedly indisposed.”

Sarah smiled and curtsied, although her eyes remained locked on mine. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Luna.”

The way she said my title made it sound like a joke. It didn’t take a genius to know that this wasn’t a maid to help me during my recovery, bu someone to mock and belittle me. A humiliation.
