Fiona ca to the courtyard and was stunned by the two suitcases of clothes for washing. She thought, 'Wasn't he back in Crescentville yesterday? Why so many dirty clothes? Feeling both disgusted and reluctant, she took a deep breath, sat on a stool, and started washing

them by hand.

Fiona had never done housework before. She didn't expect that doing laundry would take over three hours. By the time she reached Nancy's room, she couldn't care less about cleanliness, collapsed on the bed, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep When she woke up again, it was already evening. Nancy who left during the day had returned. She looked at Fiona in surprise. "Why are you sleeping here?"

Fiona jolted awake from her dream. "Matthew. She uttered and was about to rush out. Nancy held her back. "Matthew is having a discussion with the city mayor. You can't go to him right now.

Fiona was annoyed and upset, "I need to talk to Matthew. If I can't see him, then my trip here is wasted."

Nancy pondered. "I was temporarily assigned and needed to leave during the day because of an emergency at home. How about you keep him company for a few days? You might have a better chance to talk to him when the summit is over and he's free. Fiona's eyes widened. "Working as a maid for him one day is ok. But now you want me to do it for several days?"

Nancy quickly added, "I can give you all my wages. Just coming for one day won't show enough sincerity. Anyway, you're already working hard. You might as well put in a few more days for better results."

"Who wants your measly wages?" The pay for a month wouldn't even cover the cost of a pair of her shoes. Fiona gritted her teeth, absolutely livid.

Thinking about how she spent the entire day doing laundry, only to see it all be in vain, made her even more reluctant to give up. Finally, she could only grit her teeth. "Fine, once the summit's over. I'm quitting"

Nancy smiled so widely that her eyes squinted. That's settled then. I'll put in a good word for you with Matthew."

In the following days, Fiona showed up bright and early each morning, serving coffee, doing laundry, and mopping floors without complaint, trying to make sure Matthew noticed her. She was careful not to overdo it, worried it might annoy Matthew. What puzzled her even more was how mysterious Matthew seemed to be. Living under the same roof, yet she barely got a chance to see him.

When she finally went up to the attic to clean up the ink he had spilled, he had already gone for a walk, leaving her a note instructing her to clean every window in the house.

Fiona was so angry that her face darkened. She immediately turned around to leave. Half an hour later, she was vigorously scrubbing the windows, venting all her frustration onto the glass

These days, Shakira received one invitation after another from Her teachers. Their long voice messages were filled with emotion, all revolving around one thought. "Shakira, we miss you and your cooking."

Shakira couldn't help but smile as she held her phone. She told the kitchen staff of the villa to buy more meat and vegetables. As soon as she returned from school, she disappeared into the kitchen for hours.
