Okay.
I raised my brows, watching as he grabbed his fork and continued to eat as if this conversation hadnt happened.
Okay? I asked him, wanting clarification.
Hmm.
I can tell her? I asked, not satisfied with his short response.
He glanced at me, the corner of his lip twitching again ; he was finding this amusing I realized.
He liked watching me squirm and giving me indifferent answers.
Yes.
My heart swelled with excitement.
I was going to call Nan first thing in the morning and invite her to lunch with me so we can talk properly.
I would have jumped across the table and kissed him, but just then, one of the kitchen aids walked in and started to clean some of the mess off the table.
I was expecting Gavin to spend the night with me, but he had to return to his Villa.
I couldnt blame him.
His children were there after all.
But that didnt stop him from rocking my world another time before he left.
I ended up falling asleep before he officially left, so I didnt get to say goodbye.
But when I woke up the next morning, I felt a sense of loneliness.
The bed where he was once lying was cold and I felt my chest becoming empty.
I sighed and got out of bed ; the sun was rising in the distance and a smile tugged at the corner of my lips as I watched the different rays of colors expand across the Silver Crescent pack.
I went info the bathroom and spent some time utilizing the giant whirlpool tub.
It was the best thing Ive ever experienced.
It was like a hot tub in the middle of the bathroom.
By the time I was finished, my entire body felt like Jello, and my mind was put at ease.
I had never felt more relaxed in my life.
I was surprised that breakfast was ready when I reached the kitchen.
Good morning, mam, the head chef said with a polite smile.
Breakfast is ready for you.
You can call me Judy, I assured him.
Then, you can call me Chester, he replied.
Chester looked to be in his late 30s and was honestly not bad to look at.
The female kitchen staff certainly made their interest known because they blushed every time he spoke to them.
I wondered if they were new because they didnt seem quite used to him yet.
Its nice to officially meet you, Chester, I said, grabbing a fork out of the silverware dish.
I took a bite of the eggs and smiled at the deliciousness.
This is really good, I told him.
Its not hard to make eggs, he teased.
By the way, you still havent sent Harper your favorite food list.
You can always give it to me, so I know what to make for future meals.
I nodded.
Honestly, Im not picky.
You can literally make anything, and Ill eat it, I told him.
Itd make me feel better if I made your favorites though.
I shrugged.
Everything is my favorite, I assured him.
So, do you live here too? Yes, he answered.
Im here 2, so if you ever need a late night snack … he trailed off suggestively, I knew he was joking because he had a twinkle of humor in his eyes.
Im sure everybody in this mansion knew about my relationship with Gavin by now.
I felt like it was quite obvious.
But seriously, ever need food or something late at night, Im your guy.
Ill keep that in mind, I said, taking another bite of the food.
All of the staff here live in the quarters on the main floor, he continued to explain.
I nodded.
And your quarters are decent? I asked him ; the thought of them living anywhere remotely like the servants in the Cash manor made my stomach twist.
I hoped their living situation wasnt like that.
He nodded.
Better than my apartment before I got this job, he told me.
I love it here ; a lot of space, private bathroom, gorgeous views, I get to do what I love, and Im paid well.
We are all paid well.
Ive been told our rooms arent much different than the ones upstairs.
But obviously, some are bigger than others.
I nodded thoughtfully.
And Gavin treats you well? I asked him, biting my lower lip.
Chester raised his brows at me, and he studied me for a moment before answering.
Well, yeah, he said with a shrug.
